Was she the one in Transformers? Maybe they're working toward a crossover: Teenage Mutant Ninja Transformers, or Transforming Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Do they not employ creative people in Hollywood anymore? Everything is a remake or they are digging up old franchises like "Die Hard". Even better is the "reboot" where they pretend like you are getting something different.

And are there no new toy ideas? We got them bringing back TMNT, the store is still full of Star Wars stuff. Is GI Joe back now because there is some movie revolving around it (another stellar job by the Hollywood creative teams)?

Didn't she say that Michael Bay was Hitler on the set and working for him was miserable? Hmmmm...I guess she needs him now since she's basically fallen off the radar.

To be fair, Megan Fox is stunningly, mindfuckingly stupid (of the kind that you actually feel stupider for having talked to her) so for her "Hitler" is just her mental shorthand for "some mean guy who yells a lot", rather than "one of the most evil cocksuckers of the millenium".

You're right. She's probably not smart enough to realize that genocide is not a good thing to joke about.

Back to Ninja Turtle movies: I can't be the only person here who grew up watching the original ones. Memories of coming home from Sunday school, riding my bike to my friend's house and playing NES or watching these movies before the Redskins came on...back when they were the shit.

Life was good!

I can't picture this movie being any good. But I suppose if Transformers is any indication, it'll at least be mildy entertaining.

I watched the first two live action TMNT movies when I was little. They weren't nearly as good as the animated film that set off the TV series in the late 80s.


I also remember liking the more mature TMNT comics back then. They were a black and white series, more adult themed than the colored comics that were found at magazine stands.
