Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem Looks Spectacular

I have loved everything I’ve seen about the upcoming animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. I have been a Turtles fan since I was a little kid in the ’80s. They were my jam. And I have gladly checked out all the various iterations over the years. I’m all in favor of a new one, especially one that looks so good.

I love the animation style. It’s gorgeous! It’s so flashy and cool. I love the sense of humor, the sense of action, the understanding of the characters. This looks so damn good! We also got our first looks at the supporting mutants, like Mondo Gecko, Ray Fillet and my favorite, Wingnut. They’re not as cool as I’d hoped they would be, but they definitely fit the style of the movie. So we’ll see how it all plays out on the big screen.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem comes out on Aug. 2.

First Trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are getting rebooted yet again, and I’m here for it. I will always be here for it. I was a very young child in the 1980s and watched all those toy commercial cartoons, and the Ninja Turtles were my favorite! So I will always be on board for another TMNT movie. And this one looks pretty darn cool!

I love the animation style. Into the Spider-Verse has really freed animated movies to reach beyond the Disney aesthetics, and I love the look of this film. I love the youthful nature of the Turtles and their smooth, rapid fire dialogue. They’re all voiced by actual teenagers, and I think that’s neat. This movie looks darn cool!

And the recently announced cast list includes characters like Mondo Gecko, Ray Fillet and my personal favorite, Wingnut! So you best believe I am fully on board a new TMNT reboot that includes a whole menagerie of fun mutants from the lore!

TMNT: Mutant Mayhem comes to theaters on Aug. 4.
