Yeah, best animated movie of the year for me thus far.
You shills really gotta do better than
>I had fun
>I saw it this year
>it's better than [shit flop movie]
Also space your posts out by a few minutes and don't use images straight from the press kit if you want to seem less obvious.
lmfao, stay miserable I guess
Stay pathetic then, shill.
You're the one seething over people enjoying thing you don't enjoy. Sounds exceptionally pathetic to me.
>no u!
Come on now. You act like you've never been here before and aren't used to people questioning your shit taste. Projecting like that only associates this movie with homosexuals who have to sling insults because they can't even articulate a coherent opinion.
LMAOOO.
You can question my shit taste all you want, in fact I welcome it. Yet, so far you haven't brought up a reason to dislike it other than "U GUYS R SHILLS!!!!!". Boooring. People like you are so one noted.
The reasons I liked it were:
I really like the art direction and I am glad films such as this and Spiderverse are getting popular and showing your average audience members that you can actually experiment with CGI animation. It's also showing execs that animation in this style is profitable and not everything has to be Pixar clone.
I really liked the writing and found it to be a funny movie. I also liked how the Turtles actually felt like and talked like teenagers for the first time in the franchise history, and I say this as a life long Turtles fan. Making the Turtles voiced by teenagers and actually have teenaged interests other than "we like eating pizza and partying" makes the characters way more likeable and believable in the world they inhabit.
The character designs were great as well. I really liked the body type differences on the brothers. Making Raph look like Sonic Boom Knuckles is hysterical. Giving Donnie glasses and Mikey braces were also cute touches.
I liked the art direction / animation style too. I liked all the hand done touches and the general gross feel. It felt like a blending of the Spiderverse/ Last Wish style CG with classic Nickelodeon like Rugrats.
Totally agree. The scratchy look they gave it really makes it stand out in the current scene of animated movies. It gives it that slightly hand drawn look.
Was I just high or did it almost look like Coraline / a Laika movie at some points?
You were high.
not even a little Box Troll-y? I had also been drinking.
Not even slightly. Weed and booze have a multiplying effect.
Nah, anon is right. The style remids me of ParaNorman
Nah, I thought it was claymated at first. And even if it wasn't, they went out of their way to make the characters lumpy and lopsided like Laika does
>I really like the art direction and I am glad films such as this and Spiderverse are getting popular and showing your average audience members that you can actually experiment with CGI animation.

Or maybe they could try going back to 2d. That would be great.
No argument there. Still enjoyed it though.
We've been having these threads for a solid month now. If you think there's genuinely no reason to dislike this movie, you're beyond moronic.
The animation isn't experimental at all. It's a lower framerate for some scenes, crossed with some visual noise and aimless hatching. Look past the few scribbled exp;osions and it's just standard 3d animation.
The writing is weak. Half of it happens because the plot demands it and the other half is because they have to emulate the obvious elements of TMNT. They don't talk like real teens and they were never supposed to. A "life long TMNT fan" would know this. They talk like what middle aged men think teens talk like, and half the time they're all talking over each other. Having the turtles namedrop Attack on Titan is hardly a unique interest, which, again, you'd know if you weren't a fricking moron. Every previous incarnation has given them interests in comic books, movies, skateboard, wrestling, video games, books, bonsai, and plenty of other things. Mutant Mayhem give them singular traits that are dumbed down versions of previous versions.
The turtle's designs are just the 87 cartoon version but slightly exaggerated. Don't cream yourself because Donnie is skinny and Raph is fat. Rise did that shit already. The glasses and braces look fricking stupid and make no sense either.
You have shit taste and are desperately looking for anything to defend a movie that only ranks slightly better than the concert movie thing they did. The plot is fricking weak. The characters are lame. The only good thing about Superfly is Icecube hamming it up, while Cynthia Utrom is a pointless addition to give some c-list Hollywood wienerholster a job. The writers couldn't come up with a coherent character arc for the turtles and had to just blurt something out at the end. Most of the mutants were only there as an excuse to put celebrity voice actor names on the promotional material, and to try and sell action figures.
These are fair critiques. Thank you for replying with your opinion.
Now treat yourself and watch a cartoon YOU like, anon!
>It's also showing execs that animation in this style is profitable and not everything has to be Pixar clone.
Mario and Minions 2 made more money than Spider-Verse 1, Spider-Verse 2, Puss in Boots The Last Wish, The Bad Guys, and TMNT Mutant Mayhem combined
>Making Raph look like Sonic Boom Knuckles is hysterical.
This is bait.
>and aren't used to people questioning your shit taste
Agreed, this is the single biggest red flag and takeaway that exposes a poster as a shill
Based
Then you have shit taste
>Mario Movie was better
kys
OP here. I got this from IMP Awards cause I really like the poster. Also, this is my first reply to this thread. Trust me, studio execs don't care for you Cinemaphile losers as an audience
>studio execs don't care for you Cinemaphile losers as an audience
Then why are you still here you homosexual shill? Dont you have some tiktok dances to practice in the mirror?
Rock Dog 3
Elemental
Spider Verse 2
Super Mario
Ladybug and Cat Noir
Ruby Gilman
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem.
Mummies. The European one.
Even though first three posts look as astroturf as houston's baseball field, it's not unreasonable given the competition. I'm ignoring the later posts of course.
It is perfectly fine to love and to hate things that other people love and hate. One things for sure, my pick for a movie I like isn't going to be from this year.
>It's not even subtle at this point
you missed this one
This is so much better than Elemental
I think the Mario Movie was better. Thetr just wasn't enough of the stuff I like about Ninja Turtles
Give me the release date of the Shredder's Revenge DLC and I'll watch your movie.
I like the turtle designs, but I was honestly hoping we'd see them interact with humans more.
I started snoring in the cinema. Holy shit this movie was boring.
I genuinely liked it and had a good time. Much better than I was expecting. I'm not sure I love the status at the end with their rogues gallery moving in / the turtles starting school attendance. Similarly, Splinter's revised origin is funny but gets rid of his relationship with Shredder. I guess all these complaints are about what they left themselves to work with for future films
I love this movie much. It's like every stylistic thing I love from humor, tone, animation, and soundtrack all rolled into one. Need this movie injected into my veins.
I went to see this movie in the theater this year.
It was fun to watch and good.
Imagine saving this on your computer
I'm sure you have much worse saved, anon.
Imagine thinking people wanting to talk about a movie they like is "astroturfing".
Cinemaphile gays really be trying to find creative ways to say they just didn't like the movie because April was black.
Lurk more anon, and don't lean on the racisms button so much unless you want this place to be more like pol.. There's a difference between a positive reception and astroturf looking shit, and anyone who's read the positive reviews on a movie poster knows the difference.
>it was good
>I like very much
>real teens™
>animation was very I liked it
>fun great movie very turtles
>movie very better than old movie
>I love movie
This shit barely counts as posting, let alone "talking about" the movie.
April wasn't black, she was mahogany. Get your eyes checked next time, loser.
>obvious shill behavior
>"hey you sound like fricking shills"
>"haha we are not shills! Shut up you are so mean! Movie is good!"
>thread goes dead immediately
No surprise here. Studios saw the effect that positive word of mouth did for Puss in Boots and they want to recreate that.
>Seth Rogen movie.
I would rather eat my armpit hair than watch a movie produced by Seth Rogen.
Why was it so criminally unfunny?
Because all of the writers and producers were just Seth Rogen's friends who have only ever written for criminally unfunny Seth Rogen movies.
>When you have to shill a movie when HR compliance: The thread
idk, i thought it was fun. liked it loads better than Mario.
If it wasn't so heavy on the pop culture references it would be pretty good. As is I think it's ok.
It's going to be painfully dated soon, though
oof, I had not considered that. yeah... the slang, Attack on Titan and BTS actually landed with the teens in my theater, but in 10 years?
Well, if some super autist watches the movie ten years from now, they're going to have tons of recommendations for new stuff to watch.
Just like when I watched the movie Misery for the first time, and they namedropped the Republic serial, King of the Rocketmen, which I immediately watched afterwards and loved to bits.
This was what Spiderverse 2 should've been. Just another brainless fun adventure, no moronic moral quandries
I'f that's what Spiderverse 2 was then everyone would hate it and shit on it
Sadly the series exists to shit on Spider-Man while promoting "black man", we could've had a comfy teamup of fan favorites that actually goes across the Spider-Verse and not "Miles is the Spider-Mannest Spider-Man and everyone else is just a mook" but cucks are going to cuck
>This was what Spiderverse 2 should've been
Hollow? Lacking substance? A limp-dicked sequence of events that fails to pull together a bunch of really poorly implemented themes?
Why did you describe Spider-Verse 2 while asking if that's what it should've been
Being yourself and doing things for the right reasons?
I'd rather have all that than a movie that is so far up it's own ass that it expects you to come back in 2024 for a satisfying conclusion
There is frickall deep or substantial about this zoomer turtle movie, characters will flat out tell you what the moral is word-for-word like in GI Joe or He-Man, but it ends up being a more solid and coherent film regardless
Is this where we're at? "having an ending" is now the difference maker?
The ending is just a symptom of wanting to tell a story so grandiose that it has to have split installments, and not in a cheap cash grab way but in a "we're making the next LOTR/Star Wars" way
Plenty of other stuff I could b***h about like the emphasis on canon/totem crap, the entire Council-of-Reeds-but-with-spiderpeople-instead, and having Miles beat all of them just to show how special and awesome he is, and now the entire multiverse is at stake, etc.
Why couldn't he have just stayed in New York fighting regular villains?
I can't really fault you for that. Spider-verse is a bloated movie that's so in love with itself and it's own bullshit that it can't even bother to tell a full, coherent story. At least Mutant Mayhem has a beginning, middle, and end.
That's really not saying much. Most people are weirdos who can't go to a theater by themselves, in which case their friends' antics are actually entertaining them, not the movie.
I've seem more people say now the TMNT are more relatable abd grounded as teens but they've always had that zeal in them. In the 80s, what wasn't relatable about teenages living in NY who do karate and have pizza as their favorite snack. TMNT fundamentally was cashing in on a lot of trends at the time which is why they were so popular to begin with and any child could vicariously imprint any aspect from the Turtles in general. I don't think the new movie really re-invents anything new with focusing squarely on the teenage aspect.
As someone who also grew up in a sewer with an ESL father who had a constant fear of me being abducted and being milked, which is why I wasn't allowed to attend public school, this movie really spoke to me on a deep, realistic, relatable level.
>who had a constant fear of me being abducted and being milked,
...like a cow? Or is this a sex thing?
It's about having their blood extracted for mutagen, but the film repeatedly calls it milking cause Seth Rogan has the humor of a perpetual adolescent
