YOUR CHILDHOOD...Gritty reboots!

[Injury]

Hello!

TMNT is in the hands of Micheal Bay.

As much as I want to see the gritty side of TMNT, such as the original comics where the turtles really did kill the foot, smoked weed and drank beer, along with being profrane...I don't know how I feel about this...

I'm glad they are going back to their roots, The Secret of the Ooze, but in the same instance, it just seems too little too late to try and reboot that TMNT machine.

Thoughts? Other reboots that aren't justified?

Leave it and love it.

Never read or watched much TMNT apart from a few episodes from one of the cartoons. I always liked those though.
It'll be interesting to see how this turns out. Though from what I can tell from that trailer, it's going to be a standard Michael Bay movie: explosions & other action > story.

I lost hope for this when I found out that Megan Fox was going to be April... I mean, seriously, ANYONE would be better for that role than her. Yet, she seems to be as much of a fixture of Bay's movies these days as Johnny Depp is to Tim Burton's. Only Megan Fox is probably doing Bay some... 'favors' for her privilege....

It's getting boring and silly how every franchise has to become dark and gritty. And dark doesn't mean just edgy and black... but physically dark and difficult to see. Does nobody do anything in the daytime these days?
