Everyone has good memories of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and we don't mean the recent CGI-animated movie that featured a "darker" quartet of be-shelled heroes. We mean the original, 80s, foam-suited turtles and their infectious pizza eating and Ninja rapping. Well, guess what: They're back.
Here's what director Kevin Eastman, said about the project, when asked if a live action movie was coming:
"Yes, it is true. Although the CGI film did well enough to warrent a sequel, there has been much talk between Imagi and Warners to do a better 're-invention' (newest Hollywood buzzword) of the TMNT's, in a live action film--like what was done with Batman. Back to basics, back to the origin and the intro of the Shredder, etc...there have been talks, trips to Northampton to talk to Mr Laird, and discussions with the original "first" TMNT film director Steve Barron to come back and do it right--but no official word yet...will keep you posted."
