This is what I expect Michael Bay's "Ninja Turtle" movie storyboards are going be like:
Side-splittingly funny and terrifyingly plausible! It's as if you have some sort of telepathic insight into the shallow depths of Michael Bay's fractured psyche, he's probably planning all this stuff as we speak! I laughed at how April's breasts burst out of the frame of one of the storyboards! Your storyboards look more entertaining than the actual TAINT movie is going to be.
Dear Sam, You have successfully visualized all of our fears and emotions. A possible revision note might be to implement an April O'Neil slow-motion running-bouncing shot.
An early draft of the script was leaked online. I'm surprised on how much you got right. Shredder being an alien and attacking the city, the military fighting him, the Turtles being aliens, Splinter being an alien rat who taught the Turtles ninjutsu, Bebop and Rocksteady being in the film, Don using the internet, Casey Jones basically being Shia LaBeouf from Transformers. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B22ZbuTtrOA3aDdpWFhUNGRacWs/view?pli=1&sle=true
That actually wasn't too bad (Except for when the turtle warrior said balls. Even I didn't anticipate a line that dumb. Raph saying "homies" made me laugh too.). Could be worse. They weren't even aliens! I mean, it turned out they were non-mutants from dimension x, but that was a 3rd act spoiler, why would Bay spill the beans on that? The weirdest (best?) thing of all, though, is that it seems like it's not set up for a sequel at the end! Limited suffering!
One thing I'd really like to see is what kang would have looked like. And the "SMOKING HOT TURTLE CHICK" at the end.
according to your storyboard you are imagining a trailer of what the "Michael bays Alien turtle" was like but you almost think of it as a satire no one would think "blowing up planet and galaxy" would be in actual film but still its almost like a concept (although you satarize it a bit)
I think you should copyright this or date it somehow. That way, when the movie comes out you might be able to sue Michael Bay for stealing your ideas.

OKAY, you can sue him now. Haha xD
I think there's an Academy Award out there with your name on it ;)

Thank you.

I can't wait to wear t-shirts that say TAINT :)
ReplyDeleteThese boards should be enough evidence to squash Bay's ass raping of the TMNT franchise.
Nice job. You capture the essence of a Bay movie down to a tee!
