Comic book artist and author Peter Laird has a fairly approving view of what was recently shown in the first teaser for director Jonathan Liebesman‘s new live-action CG hybrid take on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Well, it’s a lot fairer than some criticisms I have read from superfans of the original comics, but I agree there wasn’t a lot to base a huge opinion on based on the teaser since it didn’t show a whole lot.
What I am really looking forward to is a full trailer that shows us what we can expect in terms of the performamces, the action and over all delivery of the characters, including Shredder. Alas, that probably won’t be for a while longer. But the official Tumblr feed for the film does have some new posters available for the film which you can check out below featuring all four turtles and their resepective weapons.
Releasing on August 8, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles stars Pete Plozek and Danny Woodburn as Leonardo and Master Splinter, accompanied by the voices of Johnny Knoxville and Danny Shalhoub. They are joined by Alan Ritchson, Noel Fischer and Jeremy Howard as Raphael, Michelangelo and Donatello, with Megan Fox as April O’Neil and William Fichtner as The Shredder.
