How many times is this series going to be rebooted? I guess an infinite amount.. We already have a crap ton, whats another? 

[Belmont13]

I wish I could say I was looking forward to this but I'm not maybe I'll see something that changes my mind.

[SpiderS]

As much as I despise comedies he made and his whole weed stoned humor shtick   It’s worth remembering that Seth Rogen was and is  main force that made amazon’s Boys and Invincible, which both are one of the best superhero comic based shows right now, so I’m really excited for this, because judging by what he already produced he definitely gets comics, if anything it’s Nickelodeon that makes me scared for the future of this project. 

[JangDangus]

I'm nervous...but it could work. TMNT needs a humorous touch so it could be good. Mike Bay was not that guy. I just hope it's not too comedic. The first movie is the perfect mix of funny and serious. That's what it needs. 

[mako]

Seth Rogen!?! I'd ask how this yutz is still allowed to make movies, but I'm honestly more concerned that he's allowed to walk the streets.

I get the feeling we'll be missing Michael Bay real soon.

[lordtom]

Don't make it for kids

[Outsiders]

I'll make this short and sweet... You want to make something with TMNT?  Ditch the whole Nickelodeon, pizza eating, skate boarding crap... Go back to how the Turtles used to be with them slicin, dicin and guttin muggers on the streets on New York.  Some of the best TMNT comics were based when Eastman and Laird would do single type issues with Raphael and Casey Jones, jumping from building to building, whoopin ass...  Go back to when they showed blood and shows people getting their asses kicked.  Enough of this rated "G" stuff... Go back to the statt with the 1984 Turtles...

That's the CG-animated movie people want to see...

How about they forget everything you just said, and do a movie EVERYBODY can see . . . not just the torture porn crowd.

Cowabunga dude!

Torture Porn crowd?

How many TMNT movies have been made for little kiddies... 3, 4, 5, maybe more?  Let's get the kids off the streets and put them to bed.  I'm just saying I want a movie that I can watch and say that is how I remember how the Turtles were.

[EvilHayato]

I would be down for an original M rated TMNT..At least that would be a semi different take than everything thats ever been made for them up to this point.. altho the turtles are so far from their original mature themed roots and extremely synonymous with PG kid friendly stuff that I dont see that happening. EVER. Especially with nickleodeon owning the rights. It might as well be disney. 

[JangDangus]

I think they could mix in a "dark" mood that's in the PG-13 area. It's important they get taken a little seriously. I want to fear them and love them. Some serious ass beating could be good here and there. Seth should watch a lot of Jackie Chan flicks. Comedic, clever, and serious #$##. Jackie makes me laugh but fights like a tiger with serious motivation. 

Seths notes are leaning in a serious direction. It's not all pizza jokes so that's good. The guy is scientifically dissecting aspects of the TMNT world pretty deep.
