    Why not Martin Scorcese?

    The thing I hate most about Bay movies are the cringeworthy Bay invented comic relief characters (that everyone else in the cinema cacks themselves over) Hopefully Mikey means that spot's already taken it.

    Might have to give it a go after reading this though, and yes...low expectations.

    So is April still Shredders daughter?
    Is Shredder Japanese?

    About Splinter, where did he come from?

    Maybe spoilers, so

    Is April still Shredders daughter? No, was she ever?

    Is Shredder Japanese? Yes

    About Splinter, where did he come from? Pretty much the same place as in the current IDW comics, a lab, but without the past life reincarnation stuff

    Thanks Paulbot.
    I remembered in one of the earlier trailers some guy was telling April that Shredder was her father. I was like O_o`

    Did they change anything from the original story?
    I know, I know, I can watch it and find out, but I dont want to watch this until I find out more about it. My disgust with it is already borderline with the designs of the turtles.

    If by original story you mean the black and white comics, then yes they changed a lot of things. There's inspiration from most (maybe all) of the various versions of TMNT.

    On the plus side, they are definitely not aliens. On the downside, Daredevil is not involved in their origin.

    As I say I think it's closest to the current IDW comic origin but the general broad strokes origin is still in play. It's much closer than the TF movie is to the original TF story(s).

    Alright. Glad to know its not to different. I knew it wouldnt follow the true origin story but be some incarnation of it.

    I just learned that there will be a squeal.. Not sure how I feel about that yet.

    I watched this last weekend and it's easily the best Turtles movie to date.
