Yes, it is true. Although the CGI film did well enough to warrent a sequel, there has been much talk between Imagi and Warners to do a better "re-invention" (newest Hollywood buzzword) of the TMNT's, in a live action film--like what was done with Batman. Back to basics, back to the origin and the intro of the Shredder, etc...there have been talks, trips to Northampton to talk to Mr Laird, and discussions with the original "first" TMNT film director Steve Barron to come back and do it right--but no official word yet...will keep you posted. Best, Kevin

A LIVE-ACTION RE-INVENTION OF THE FIRST FILM? OH MAN

    Man, I was really hoping for a sequel to the recent film.

    They're just the kind of characters that work better in animation.

    "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?"

    TMNT A-Team Crossover

    Actually, my RA was playing the TMNT 360 game the other night, and I thought a TMNT/Spider-Man crossover would be awesome. They're both comic book characters (though different companies), both light-hearted, both are really quick and jump around the rooftops of New York.

    Would make a really neat TV special or video game.

    In all honesty, I hope this means that hollywood is going to stop trying to make new movies and just "reimagine" the same film over and over again. People seem to respond well to that

    I read this old old old turtles comic about how they became the..uuh turtles, and according that book they got gooed on with goo from a truck that drove off the road when a kid saved a blind man from being run over(the kid was very brave, almost as tho HE HAD NO FEAR) and then it seemed as the kid also got some goo in his eyes.

    When I read that, my mind was blown.

    Yeah, Eastman and Laird were heavily influenced by Frank Miller's Daredevil.

    Check the Wiki article. TMNT has a lot of Daredevil references.

    This is bullshit, DO NOT MESS WITH THE CLASSIC MOVIES FROM WHEN i WAS A KID.

    It might be alright if they show a pizza hut commercial like when I saw it in theaters.

    The recent TMNT CGI movie was nowhere near as bad as people made out. Not great, but not the work of the devil either. I liked the visual style personally.
