Michael Bay is back at it again to simmer the burning flames. First, there was the argument that the turtles will be an alien race. Then came word that they will longer be teenagers. Now, the film will simply be called Ninja Turtles.
Writing once again on Shoot For the Edit, Bay says,
Paramount marketing changed the name. They made the title simple. The characters you all remember are exactly the same, and yes they still act like teenagers. Everything you remember, why you liked the characters, is in the movie. This script is being developed by two very smart writers, with one of the original creators of Ninja Turtles. They care VERY MUCH about making this film for the fans. Everyone on this team cares about the fans. Just give them a chance. Jonathan the director, is a major fan of the whole franchise. HE’S NOT GOING TO LET YOU DOWN.
If nothing else Ninja Turtles is a hot button topic on all fans minds right now. After what Bay has done with the Transformers franchise it only makes sense that fans have to worry. We’ll keep you updated all the other crazy chances that happen before this Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles live-action reboot shoots.
