Bay Responds to Reviews of Ninja Turtles Script
It was revealed a few days ago that the screenplay for producer Michael Bay's Ninja Turtles was leaked online, resulting in an outpouring of negative reviews. Among those who read the script was TMNT co-creator Peter Laird, who had this to say:
"I think the script that I read is so fundamentally flawed, and -- more to the point -- so NOT a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, that trying to make piecemeal changes to it in an effort to make it into something halfway decent is probably a fool's errand. In my opinion, the thing should just be tossed out, deliberately forgotten, and the process of generating a new script really a new outline, then treatment, then script -- should be started again."
On the whole, fan reactions weren't much better. However, Bay recently issued a response to this brouhaha, explaining the situation:
"The leaked script that different sites continue to comment on was written well before I, or anyone at Platinum Dunes, was involved with the project. That script saw the shredder a long time ago. This is tired, old news -- wait for the movie!"
Ill-timed "Shredder" pun aside, Latino Review also points out that the script had a 1/30/12 date, which was two years after Bay and Platinum Dune were attached the project in late May 2010. Suspicious, no?

So you haven't seen Spiderman 3
Yeah worst Spiderman ever....whats your point?
That regular peoples fan fictions are better than Hollywood writers... That the people that wrote Batman TAS and JLU are vets and apart of our childhoods... That they went from shows to little movies and have gotten better... That they been doing this for 20 years... We know they have integrity and they will make a good JL movie...

how hard can it be to make a decent TMNT movie? base that shit on the original comic book and have it be a bit more dark & mature like the dark night movies. shit would be epic.
Hell yea it would.
