He's still on board, their just doing a rewrite and it's getting bumped from December to May...
In the script, not only were the turtles from space, but so was "Shrader" 
Casey and April were still in high school...the main focus of the movie is on Casey and of course April is a smoking hot sexpot...

I picked up the four Turtles, Splinter, Shredder and a Foot Soldier. Passed on Krang and April though. Shredder is a little TOOO cartoony IMO but not bad.
I'm loving the Kraang figure. Still need to pick up April. Considering Shredder and Splinter.
I just watched that one last night. Still love it.
You should get 'em. They're pretty solid toys.
Take that Pooh! .. that didn't come out right. .. Neither did that.

Anyone gonna watch the 'toon? I caught the preview last night, and other than them giving that douchebag Jason Biggs gainful employment it wasn't the worst reimagining I've ever seen.
It's no Thundercats, but it could be (or get) worse.

i saw them both in the store very cool to see they have that much articulation now i love the look of the classic lie more and that vid rocked. nick made the toon very gay looking though.
I DVRd it but haven't watched it yet...I like watching toons, even if they aren't perfect (I continue to watch Clone Wars, TF: Prime and Green Lantern) so I'll probably continue to watch TMNT even if it sucks...
This is funny...Now that I think about it, the toons I listed as ones I don't really like, are CGI toons...lol...I'm biased against them without even thinking about it...

What bugs me the most from the designs is the weird April (I don't want to see her in a yellow jumpsuit, but I dislike her design) and Shredder is a tad ridiculous looking. The hoof feet originally bugged me but they've grown on me and actually do look more turtle-like.
Overall it's a much more faithful update than I expected. I also dislike that Raphael is somehow Irish while his 3 brothers aren't. That voice-casting/accent is a bit odd.

rime well enough.
what I saw looked decent... I just can't stand the barrage of ads... Couldn't finish
I enjoyed the hell out of the new series. It's a bit more serious but still fun. My six year old loved it.
I did not, however, like that it was on all damn weekend long on every Nick channel on the air.

Just started watching it. From earlier test footage I saw like a year ago, Sean Astin was doing an Irish accent for Raph. Looks like they changed it? Is it still Sean Astin?
Yeah, I just checked online. So my company (or ex-company, the one I worked for at the time anyways) bid against like 3 other shops to work on the campaign. We pitched work but it didn't win. We did get to see early footage and they had voice recording footage of all the turtles' artists, and I specifically remember Jason Biggs, the guy who used to voice Donatello (he reprises his role as D) and Sean Astin with a really thick Irish accent. It made zero sense at the time to me or my teammates, so it looks like they had him just do his regular voice instead.
Wasn't sure if someone told him to riff off Samwise, but it was really distracting.

So I watched it this morning...aside from the animation, I really enjoyed it...it was goofy and fun, but that's what I expect from TMNT...for a kids show, it was quite funny...
Just watched the new episode...do we have to look forward to some bystander coming into contact with ooze and a plant or bug or animal every weekend?...that'll get old really fast...sorta like on Renegades when the Joes kept helping townies...
Eh, kids show...guess it should be expected...

yeh. I'm thinking they're sticking with this formula for the first episodes so they can start to establish story and characters that are going to be more of a staple. Like how they're working in Shredder, slowly but surely.
Also, both of the civilians-turned-mutant each got a way in the end so they may come back later. 'Sides, the original TMNT series did that from time to time. Where do you think Muckman and Joe Eyeball came from?
