Hey dudes and dudettes, it’s been a while since the lean green machine has been on the big screen, but it looks like major league butt kicking is back in town! This trailer for the latest TMNT outing is incredible and might just be as big a hit as Miles Morales and Peter Parker’s foray into the spider-verse. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, man I love being a turtle, and we can’t wait to join Leo, Donnie, Mike and Raph for this all new adventure in August. Cowabunga!!! After years of being sheltered from the human world, the Turtle brothers set out to win the hearts…

But if you’re a fan of his, or this site, you already know that. Of all the composers we’ve gotten to know over the years, Steve is one of our favorite people to talk to.

G-S-T Review…Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Hard to believe that a ludicrous sounding concept like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles would have worked as a comic, ever. Yet, after a quarter of a century (wrap your head around that all you children of the ’80s), the green machine is still kicking. In that time we’ve seen multiple cartoon series, four feature films, an incomprehensible amount of merchandise and now, after nearly 30 years, a reboot. Well, you know what they say about the life expectancy of a turtle right? The release of the updated TMNT film comes nearly in tandem with another highly unlikely concept turned feature film as Guardians of the Galaxy (our review) has made an incredible…

Sweet (Teaser) Trailer…’Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’
After suffering months of speculation, less than comforting set shots (with all actors donning CG tracking outfits), a very questionable casting choice and finally a director who draws more criticism than praise, die-hard Turtle fans finally have our first look at the world of the re-imagined Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Ohhh, look…Classic Movie Posters Re-imagined
A few weeks ago, /Film ran a post featuring the inspired artwork of very talented young artist Brandon Schaefer. While /Film showcased the more popular film posters, I went back to look at Brandon’s site. Well lucky I did, as I found more than a few surprises. However, the one I was most excited to see was The Rocketeer. Since it is one of my favorite movies (and I’m not alone am I Ruth?) I just had to post it. I’ve also attached some of the ones I really enjoyed. Damn this guy is just uber talented. It’s tough to find that delicate balance between minimalist and boring. But he…
