Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem Animated Film Trailer Review



So what is there to say about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem trailer? It's good to see the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles back in the big screen with a fresh coat of paint. Though there are some "unique" changes that this 2023 reimagination of the works from its creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird; I can say overall, I am digging the changes thus far. I am of the mind that as long as the film is of good to great quality (in terms of writing, phasing, and performance); I can forgive the more "creative" liberties a series or movie will take which is usually there to appeal to the "modern audiences." Let's just hope that this animated film will also be fresh beyond from the skin-deep changes we see on this trailer.



I like who Mutant Mayhem chose as its villain or rather villains. For once, it didn't use Shredder as its main antagonists, rather, TMNT: Mutant Mayhem focuses on the mutant rogues of this media franchise. The mutant rogues is lead by Baxter Stockman (voiced by Giancarlo Esposito) and following him are popular Shredder minions Rocksteady and Bebop. We can only speculate that if this animated film performs well in the box office, we may very well see a sequel setting up Shredder and his foot soldiers with Krang just like in the earlier film adaptation of TMNT.



It is refreshing to see both Shredder-less TMNT movie and a title where the four brothers are actual teenagers. The two live action movies that preceeded 2023's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem were Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014) and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (2016) whwerin it features juiced up or gym bros-like Turtles (no offence to teenagers who happen to be gym bros). This time we follow actual teenage Turtles (in stature, demeanor, mannerism, and maturity) with their teenage dream of being accepted and validated by the people of their hometown, New York City. Mutant Mayhem uses a highly stylized cell-shaded 3-D animation similar to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse and its sequel Across the Spider-Verse. While animation is not new for a TMNT animated movie, it is a step up from TMNT (2007) animated film. I am personally hyped up for this film and will see it once it hits the theaters by August 2, 2023.



How about you guys? What do you think about the return of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles this 2023? How do you feel about the changes they made with some iconic characters like April O'Neil? What is your fondest memories of the Turtle in a Half-Shell; any favorite moments from its more recent animated series or the recent live action films?

Man of Steel Film Trailer Review

The success of Christopher Nolan's Batman film series signaled the creation of an even more serious Hollywood take on Superman's story. Summer of 2013 marks the year when will see the Man of Steel fly again. This new Superman film will be under the wing of the same director who brought us 300 and Watchmen, Zack Snyder with the aid of Christopher Nolan as the man behind the story and producer in bringing Comics' Superman originally by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster back to the big screen.

The Man of Steel will be another origin story of one of the most well-known DC Comics superhero of all time, Superman. The trailer for the Man of Steel film looks very promising besides the fact that Nolan and Snyder will be two well-recognized people working behind this 2013 superhero film. A more compelling origin tale of Superman with amazing visuals and hopefully better story, acting and presentation than what we have been presented before with past Superman television series, animated shows, and past films. We here at CMAQUEST are particularly looking forward to what this potential new film series (ala Nolan's Dark Knight series) has in store for us when it hits the theaters on the Summer of 2013.

Deadpool Video Game SDCC 2012 Video Game Teaser Trailer Review

Deadpool has become one of Marvel Comcs most beloved characters because of his deadly combat abilities and humor. Deadpool is popular for being the only character aware that he is in a comic and has a habit of repeatedly breaking the fourth wall. This is what Marvel teased everyone this San Diego Comic-Con International 2012 with the release of Deadpool the Video Game's Teaser Trailer.

It is both surprising and not for a video game trailer. Not surprising because Deadpool is known to break the fourth wall and if he can't do that in his own video game then that would not be a Deadpool video game. I is quite surprising on the other hand to have a teaser trailer that feature that heavy blood gore, mild profane language and a reference to an old yet notorious "video" featuring a "cup". This is just a teaser and all what is featured in this SDCC 2012 teaser trailer may not even be included in the actual finished product. Let's just hope that they make a good Deadpool video game. The merc with a mouth finally received his own video game and it is only fitting to give him justice right?

Dredd Trailer Impressions: Judge Dredd is Back!

Dredd is a 2012 action sci-fi film based on the Judge Joseph Dredd fictional character from the British science fiction anthology comics 2000 AD. Most of you might be more familiar with the 1995 sci-fi action film Judge Dredd starring Sylvester Stallone. Given this fact, the 2012 Dredd film is not a remake but more of a movie adaptation of the comics 2000 AD featuring the story of Dredd. Let's check out this upcoming action film here.

Dredd
Plot / Synopsis

The story of Dredd takes place on an Earth ravaged by the Atomic Wars. Survivors of this world live within megacities, gargantuan urban sprawls which protect its citizens from the Cursed Earth, a radioactive desert environment populated by mutants. The main story takes place in Mega-City One, where its police force, known as judges have the power of judge, jury and executioner to thwart crime.

One man, Judge Dredd (Karl Urban), a senior Judge, teams with cadet Judge Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) to stop drug dealer Ma-Ma (Lena Headey) and her traffic of the reality-altering drug Slo-Mo.

Dredd Film Trailer Review

Upon seeing this trailer I initially asked if this is a sequel, prequel or remake of Stallone's Judge Dredd (1995) but in further researching found out that the 1995 version that I was familiar with was not the first Dredd. It is basically a modern film adaptation of a classic British sci-fi action comics.

This is film is probably worth taking a shot especially for those who perfectly or vaguely like 1995's Judge Dredd. Maybe it is just me or it seems like Stallone's Dredd has been forever implanted in my consciousness because I can't help but to reminisce and compare Sylvestre Stallone's portrayal of the badass judge to Karl Urban's modern take on it. Hopefully there is enough high octane action that can also make us reminisce of what the 90's was back in the days. You can't really expect some complex plot when it comes to these kinds of film and what you see in the trailer is probably what you'll get when you hit the theaters once this film gets release on the third quarter of 2012.

The Amazing Spider-Man Official Trailer Impressions: The Much Awaited Reboot "Untold" Film Version of Spider-Man's Origin

The Lizard, and Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker a.k.a. Spider-Man. Let's check out this much talked about film reboot slash untold story of Spider-Man's origins.

The Amazing Spider-Man Official Movie Trailer Impressions
The Amazing Spider-Man Film Trailer Review

The Amazing Spider-Man Official trailer seems to do what fans familiar to the series have always dreamed of, a somewhat loyal to its comics root film adaptation of Spider-Man. Some film fans were a bit skeptic at first when they heard that Hollywood is doing another reboot of the first Spider-Man film franchise (2002-2007) popularized by director Sam Raimi and actors Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker/Spider-Man and Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson. But after seeing The Amazing Spider-Man official trailer, this second attempt on the spider-Man film franchise is starting to

look pretty rad.

There are certain things to love and hate with the Raimi Trilogy Spider-Man film franchise. Particular things some familiar with the super hero series and critics alike questioned include the major alteration of the original Spider-Man lore: Miscasting characters from Mary Jane Watson being Peter's first love interest rather than Gwen Stacey to Gwen being just another office fling; and the injustice done (debatable) on the Spider-Man villain Venom on the last title in the Raimi's film trilogy. Some aspects that movie goers like on Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy were the various epic action moments of the film, superb character build up for Doctor Octopus, the original Spider-Man costume used in the film, and the actual concept of a Spider-Man film itself. But its 2012, and a different production team is behind that, so what does this new film franchise under Marc Webb has potentially in store for us this Summer of 2012?

Spider-Man in the sewers with The Lizard

Ben Parker is pretty much alive on this Spider-Man film reboot. The Amazing Spider-Man trailer hints that this is more about Peter's mysterious parents, his first year as the masked vigilante (because that is what Spider-Man really is), and his first romantic relationship with Gwen Stacy who happens to be the daughter of the the police out to get Spider-Man. All the elements of a right Spider-Man movie seems to be in this film. I am happy that Hollywood has learned from the mistakes of the first series and started to listen to what fans and film goers might actually like in a spider-Man film. This Spider-Man film is darker and has a more brooding Nolan Batman film feel to it, and I am fine with that. The amazing Spider-Man even pokes fun of the fact that Spider-Man wears a skin tight red and blue suit but still manages to kick some criminal and police butts.

Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker aka Spider-Man

Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man 2012 reboot's first film villain is The Lizard. Growing up with the 90's Spider-Man the animated series, I can somewhat say that the film probably will stay true to Dr. Curt Connors (The Lizard) character of being a friend and potential mentor to Peter Parker but will later turned savage no thanks to the genetic alteration caused by The Lizard serum. But it seems like they are adding more to Doc Connors character by associating him with Peter's parents who mysteriously left him in the care of his Aunt May and Uncle Ben. To what the connections all are makes The Amazing Spider-Man a must see.

The Lizard Unveiled - Rhys Ifans as Dr. Curt Connors aka The Lizard

Times are changing, and what people might love r hate with past films might (or might not be) remedied by newer versions. Some films are worth rebooting, while some just need to be left alone, and what of Spider-Man? Well, after seeing this trailer all I can say is that this reboot is very much needed and a welcome addition to the excellent superhero film franchise under Marvel Entertainment.

The Dark Knight Rises Official Trailer Impressions: Christopher Nolan's Batman Ends with the Rising

The Dark Knight Rises Film Trailer Review

All good things must eventually come to an end. The epic finale for Christopher Nolan's Batman is soon at hand and for those who watched the first two films , there will be no doubt that they will see this conclusion. For those who haven't seen the first two films, all I can say is that you are missing out on something very special and I suggest you go watched them first if you are curious with this third Batman film installment.



It is a good trailer for Batman 3 The Dark Knight Rises. It didn't spoil the fans of the DC super hero by showing too much of the villains, heck it didn't even showed you Anne Hathaway in her Catwoman costume and Bane in his juiced up hulking form, if that is not effective teasing for Batman i don't know what is. Then we have the very generic plot as to why Batman must eventually come out. But to what part will Selina Kyle/Catwoman play in all of it is still left to movie goers and fans enthusiastic imagination and this is why this is such a great movie trailer. It is a definite recommendation for CMAQUEST, and we can't wait for The Dark Knight Rises July 2012 release.

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World - A Video game-like Movie Not Even Based on a Video Game

Scott Pilgrim VS The World looks one of the best looking video game to movie adaptation genre coming this 2010. Uhm, what? Scott Pilgrim VS The World is not even based on a video game? Well hopefully after the film there would be, but it still doesn't count because Scott Pilgrim Vs The World 2010 movie is based on a comic book series by Bryan Lee O'Malley entitled Scott Pilgrim. So what's the deal with Scott Pilgrim?



Scott Pilgrim Vs The World Synopsis

Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera), bass guitarist for the garage band Sex Bob-omb, has just met the girl of his dreams. However, he must defeat Ramona Flowers' (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) seven evil exes, who are coming to kill him.



Scott Pilgrim has never had a problem getting a girlfriend. It’s getting rid of them that proves difficult. From the girl who kicked his heart’s ass — and now is back in town — to the teenage distraction he’s trying to shake when Ramona roller blades into his world, love hasn’t been easy. He soon discovers, however, his new crush has the most unusual baggage of all: a nefarious league of exes control her love life and will do whatever it takes to eliminate him as a suitor.
As Scott gets closer to Ramona, he must face an increasingly vicious rogues’ gallery from her past, from infamous skateboarders to vegan rock stars and fearsomely identical twins. And if he hopes to win his true love, he must vanquish them all before it really is game over.
