I hear this chapter getting all kinds of praise from fans and I'm a little baffled by this honestly. First of all, the first half of the chapter was about nothing. We did not need half a chapter of Naruto criticizing the vernacular of the Sage just so he can finally start saying things. I don't care if that's in character for Naruto, it's not necessary. And I simply could not believe and could not be more unhappy with this turning into a destiny/reincarnation plot. It immediately makes all of this less personal for the characters which immediately makes me like it less, and since Naruto has been all about the people and their relationships since chapter 1, for all of this to have been more or less decided from their birth is a little insulting to everything they're gone through as characters and we've gone through as readers. And given that the series is supposedly ending this year, we did not need this to suddenly become bigger than it already was this late. I'm holding back the rage, but suffice it to say that I'm disgusted with what has become of this series.

The original incarnation of Turtles was much grittier than anything that came after so this isn't that unusual (especially considering the modern trend for everything to be dark). And if we're going by a later series the Turtles themselves could be the levity in a much darker setting; there's almost no way to go wrong with the tone of a Turtles franchise because it's all been done before. Based on what little we saw my biggest problem is the apparent scope of the film, Turtles are "supposed" to be street-based without the grandiose city-sweeping shots with towers toppling and things exploding as seen in A-list superhero movies. I put supposed in quotations because Turtles have never been a franchise to stick with tradition, each iteration is generally doing something different, and the current IDW series is supposedly the most different and the best yet. I haven't read it myself but boy do I want to. And, obligatory, this is a Michael Bay movie which makes explosions a prerequisite to making the film. And I question how you can judge their sense of humor based off of a 2-second clip where we hear one line. We don't know anything about it yet, really. They could have picked the one line that sounds reminiscent of Turtles to put the fans at ease. The point I'm trying to make is that, as with most trailers, it's best to reserve judgement until we see the movie. And given that this is Michael Bay's second attempt at reviving an 80's franchise and it's one with a fanbase just as dedicated, people are certainly going to be apprehensive and cry foul at the first chance they get. My point is, it doesn't have to be like any of its predecessors to be good. Them being created by April's dad and Shredder could be interesting, just because it was never done before doesn't mean it won't work for this movie. All-in-all, given the sensitive nature of this film, let's just wait and see. Never make deciding assumptions based on a trailer. My biggest fear for the film is the humor. Given that this is going for a darker tone and the main characters are supposedly teenagers and Megan Fox is in it, it seems like a recipe for disaster. Though mad props to Michael Bay if he and the writers don't go that route. And can I just say, from the set shots I've seen, I'm so glad that Fox isn't all sexed up like in Transformers. I have high hopes for this. I genuinely want Bay to give us something better than he did with Transformers, and from what little I've seen of this movie's production so far I think he can. don't let me down please[DOUBLEPOST=1395942836][/DOUBLEPOST] ugh i made the mistake of clicking on the video and looking at the comments all of these people writing it off already while knowing this little is sad i think it looks good. im excited.
yeah after that season opening/three parter i don't really know what to think about anything anymore like, i want to make theories and predictions but im not going to because.. i just dont know and i haven't made it to this point in the season yet but i saw a clip of BMO's pregnant song and have been obsessing over it for a couple weeks now as soon as i know someone who's pregnant im totally gonna sing OH!
