For the first time since 1993, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are making their return to the big screen in live action this summer. Produced by Michael Bay and directed by Jonathan Liebesman, the new movie promises to reintroduce the classic characters to a new generation, replacing foam rubber suits with fancy performance-capture technology. We have been patiently waiting for our first look at the new version of the turtles for months now, and tonight we finally got our first peek, as the premiere trailer was debuted during the Paramount Pictures presentation at CinemaCon.

The trailer begins with a camera soaring through skyscrapers and a voice over from Shredder (William Fichtner). He talks about how the city has become overrun with "crime, violence and fear," and how a once great city has been destroyed. We see shots of a tower on top of a skyscraper come crashing down and hooligans wearing masks firing off guns. Shredder talks about justice being restored and the need for heroes.

Down in a subway we see flashes of action as criminals are getting their asses handed to them by the turtles, though they are moving too fast for us to get a good look at them. April O’Neil (Megan Fox) is on the scene and we see her recording the action on her phone. The voice-over continues, but there are also flashes of Shredder out of costume talking with April, and shots of the legendary ooze that will eventually transform the titular heroes. Shredder then drops the biggest bomb of all and perhaps the movie’s biggest change in TMNT mythos: knowing that heroes are not born but rather created, Shredder actually worked with April’s dad to create the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The next shot has one of turtles (I couldn’t see the color of the mask) skiing down a mountain on his shell before slamming into a parked SUV and getting stuck to the side upside down (for comedic effect). The scene then switches to a rooftop where April is standing and is shocked when Leonardo (Pete Ploszek) jumps down and lands from seemingly out of nowhere. She turns around as though to run, but comes face to face with Michelangelo (Noel Fisher). The turtle quickly tries to calm her down by telling her that there is nothing to freak out about and that "it’s just a mask." He removes his disguise to reveal his face, and April faints.

The trailer will premiere before the Winter soldier .

All I can say is .....DAMMIT ! I knew they would screw this up

Goddamnit! Didnt they learn? Turn dbz into a movie = ruined
tmnt movie= doublely crap
Both of which they could make quite good movies out of. But instead, they decide to make massive changes, and wind up messing it up.

But instead they begin to take the cool things about the series.

If they made a naruto live action movie, they would probably make him be host to godzilla. And instead of ninjas useing hand seals they would use poses instead for ninjutsu.

This is not something unique to comics, or manga. It happens on nearly all literary methods. (books etc)

They seem to ALWAYS forget that when they make a movie true to the book, they get massive success. Even if they dont get as good success as they THINK they might get by changeing something.

Just look at a few successful series based on books.

Lord of the rings.
Harry Potter
Hunger games.
(im sure there are a few more)

These were movies that had little changes to them from the books. They mostly kept the characters exactly how they are.

Meanwhile we have flops such as
Dragon ball evolution
The Last Airbender.
Perhaps this movie.
Some of the xmen movies

Adaptation and changeing things are okay. But a NECCESITY is keeping the character personalities. Without that, you have a flop.
