Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Superbowl Spot with ALL THE KRANG!!!

And the people cried out to the heavens and said....Oh Bay, blow up as much of the city as you want, just understand that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was originally intended to be a semi-serious spoof on super hero comic books. It should be equal parts goofy, thoughtful, heartfelt and action packed with insane visuals seemingly dreamed up by rabid 12 year olds and monsters who talk....FUCKING EVERYWHERE!! That's all we need. Please and thank you. And the Bay looked down from his secret spy satellite with the giant laser array always pointed at Canada and said..Hmm....K. ....AND THEN HE JUST MIGHT HAVE GONE AND DONE IT. Real talk...I'm somewhat excited for the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie...even if i'm sure they fucked up Casey Jones. Let's catch up with the boys in their newest TV spot which premiered tonight during sportsball..

Playmates Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2014 Movie Figures Arrive

In a little more than three weeks, Michael Bay's vision of a New York City that giant, mutated ass kicking turtles call home will come to the big screens...like it or not! Playmates, the uber masters of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys, take to the pegs once more to bring these film characterizations to life in the shiniest of plastics. Let's take a highly detailed look at most of the basic action figure lineup!

In the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film, the character designs push individuality as we've never seen before. You'll note Raphael is stockier than Leonardo, and Donatello is taller than the lot. Thankfully, Playmates have reflected these significant differences in physique with some great sculpts packed with detail. Exploring each figure, you'll find buckles and straps and wrappings and skin texture and a host of other little surprises we haven't been used to finding in a basic figure line lately.

A Closer Look at Bay's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

I'd like to be a fly on the wall during the meeting where some enterprising studio executive convinced the creators of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie that a modern turtle team displayed best in 3D....with lips. I can just hear the argument..."Without lips, these are just creatures...less expressive..less human..less caring. Lips give a creature the capacity to love and smile sincerely...and suck on things!" ....You can see we'll be poking fun at this right up to the movie's release. I know you realize this. Today, we get a closer look at the movie turtles in all their HD glory through a new trailer. Dive right in!

The First Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Teaser is HERE

Many things have lead up to this moment. Most of them involved us getting yelled at. Since the announcement of the Bay-tacular Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2014 film, we've been told they are aliens..and then not. They've got beaks..and then not. It would star Megan Fox as April O'Neil....and then it did, and a lot of you threw a tantrum usually reserved for Hasbro not making the Marvel Legends they had promised. Now, after half a dozen leaks, and half a dozen more which we will call "leaks", we have seen the turtles and are for the most part, satisfied that their visage won't anger us and murder our childhood...so it's TIME FOR A TEASER!!!

Toy Fair 2014: Playmates Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie Figures : Take 2

RIGHT! So some time back, we had an excellent tipster email in with a full report on the look of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters from the new film. Unfortunately, this news came a little early for the licensors, and so we took the info down. Flash forward to today! We've been to the Playmates Toys booth at New York Toy Fair 2014, we were officially lead into an official room where official figures were shown by official looking people, one of which made awesome hand motions toward the toys in a showroom model fashion as the first person described the lines, and after getting a thumbs up from the crew...WE CAN NOW, OFFICIALLY DESCRIBE THE DAMN TURTLES!!

Black Sails On The Horizon

We've got Vikings and Spartans and medievally folks offing each other whilst waiting for Winter and now, Starz looks to put Pirates on your "must watch" TV list! Say it with me...Scurrrrrrvy...Scurvy is the new sexy.

STARZ today revealed the official key art and two teaser videos for the highly anticipated Michael Bay executive produced high-seas drama “Black Sails,” which will premiere in January 2014.

The pirate adventure centers on the tales of Captain Flint (Toby Stephens) and his men and takes place twenty years prior to Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic “Treasure Island.” Flint, the most brilliant and most feared pirate captain of his day, takes on a fast-talking young addition to his crew who goes by the name John Silver (Luke Arnold). Threatened with extinction on all sides, they fight for the survival of New Providence Island, the most notorious criminal haven of its day – a debauched paradise teeming with pirates, prostitutes, thieves and fortune seekers, a place defined by both its enlightened ideals and its stunning brutality.

Mark Wahlberg Vs Decepticons

Holeeee crap...so much geekiness going on in Hollywood!! Before Michael Bay and Co. get ready to give us another heaping dose of Giant Fucking Robots, they thought they'd give us a heads up on WHO might be leading the Autobots into battle this time around...

After an exceptionally successful collaboration on the upcoming “Pain and Gain,” Michael Bay has cast Academy Award®-nominee Mark Wahlberg in the highly anticipated “TRANSFORMERS 4.” The film will hit theaters June 27th, 2014.
