This is a cash-in that can't even be bothered to even try to mask its open hostility towards its own audience. This whole thing is sad.

I honestly don't think anything can really fix the smug, winking, sneering dismissal this movie has for TMNT.

It's not something that's being set up to be opposed in the narrative. It's just... how they feel about this franchise as a whole.

Turtles for me is deeply tied to happy childhood memories with my father, and memories of friends I used to write fanfic with and shit.

And people make fun of that a lot already, so it sort of sucks when a movie in the franchise that should be safe ground for that nerdery...

The actions fine I guess? I think shooting the action like a horror movie with the turtles as unseen, superhuman monsters is fine?

I don't care about the canon changes, not wild about the way the turtles look but I like April's costuming so far at least, Karai looks cool

But the movie just so openly doesn't like what it is that it's repellent.

Huh so it's like the polar opposite of the 1990s movie

Exactly. It's like it wants to scoff at how childish the premise is. IT'S FOR KIDS
