Neat. I guess? Zero info yet so hard to tell [/QUOTE]

Those movies he's worked on were awful.

I'm afraid I prematurely shot my wad on what was supposed to be a dry run if you will, so I'm afraid I have something of a mess on my hands.

I repost this from the comments of one of Kris' recent chainsawsuit comics.

When I watched the trailer, I thought it was a pretty funny joke someone talented was making about Hollywood.

Then I started getting a bad feeling, like when you're at a urinal shitting pee out of your wafflecone like crazy and start to realize you've got to leak a poop, too. Then I guess I realized it was an actual trailer. I'm not even angry about it -- all of my energy has been drowned away in a flood of world-weary disgust.

I feel like Rorschach, like if the Smurf movie was screaming and called up for me to save it, I would just mutter "No" and watch it drown in blood and shit. It can't make me care about it. Not anymore.

That sounds about right.

He also wrote Crossroads which is a cult classic.[/QUOTE]

I haven't seen that, so I can't say anything. However, apparently Michael Bay is producing.

Crossroads the Britney Spears movie?

Nah, I imdb'd the guy and it's a late 80's movie with Ralph Macchio. Something about him playing guitar and an old black mentor going on a trip.

Oh. Well, it's a Turtles movie so I doubt whoever writing it is going to have much clout. Though, a Turtles reboot with the Coens at the helm..........

After reading some of the old Turtles comics (which they'd never use as a basis, sadly) I'd love to see Christopher Nolan handle them.

If Nolan did it, they'd end up being normal humans in masks who are concerned about the mutagenic carcinogens in the environment.

DANDELIONS!

Didn't James Cameron do a smurfs movie last year?

It was more true to the original, I think.
