Still, Form says they're proud of the final product.

And at the same time, it might have also been too much. And while the second film decided to embrace the more cartoonish nature of the franchise, not to mention bringing in characters like Krang, Rocksteady, Bebop, Casey Jones and Baxter Stockman, it still wasn't enough. The tone of the turtles, the action and their dynamic with each other was done pretty well, but not all of the pieces connected to make a cohesive movie.
What happend to tmnt movie#
The biggest problem that the first movie had was that the story didn't make any sense, and Shredder was incredibly poorly handled as a villain. Maybe just adding characters from the canon, that wasn't enough. You have to give the audience something that's really new and fresh. I think one thing we did learn is you really need to give-you can't just add characters to a movie and expect that to be what's fresh. However, Form did have one possible explanation, and it's maybe that the film fell short of delivering on something that was actually different and better than the first movie. We really can't.We're still so proud of the movie it just didn't find an audience. And we talk about it all the time, and we tried to figure it out, but we cannot put our finger on what happened. From our first Super Bowl teaser to everything we launched, we felt so good about our material, and for some reason it did not find the audience that the first movie found. However, Paramount Pictures, Nickelodeon and Platinum Dunes might want to give audiences some time to put this latest franchise behind them before we get a new one started.įorm says that after the box office numbers came up significantly short, they were forced to be introspective about why, but they don't seem to have figured out a definitive answer: We were obviously surprised at the box office results. If anything, I'm betting next time it'll get an animated reboot. The TMNT franchise will never really be dead, and that's because it can just be rebooted again. Speaking with Collider, the producer was asked about the chances for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3, and he bluntly said: I don't think there's Turtles 3, but I wouldn't say there's never going to be another Turtles movie.
