I'd vote for Lars von Trier or Gaspar Noe.

Re: New LIVE ACTION Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film in the works...

Or an anthology film with all three directors. Each can tackle the different phases of the relationship: meet cute, honeymoon, and murder-suicide.

Oh and the role of Supermallet has to be played by this guy:

I'm guessing no one is reacting to Raf because they'll likely CGI a fedora and trench coat on him, like he wore in the first movie and in the cartoons.

The Turtles being 6'6'' (judging from the eye location) makes Hugh Jackman's Wolverine's height difference look negligible by comparison. Weren't they like 5 feet tall in the movies and cartoon?

I'd say he's in full view. People aren't reacting since they think he is a costumed actor. Notice a Dora the Explorer costume walks by early in the video. There is a Toys R Us in Times Square so I guess they think he works there.

Hopefully if they do use the trenchcoat idea, they'd use a real trenchcoat and put it on the actor. Why spend $$$ to CGI one in when they can put it on the actor. It would still sit fine on him since he's be wearing that shell balloon thing on his back.

I think so, yeah. They were small guys which kind of made all the more awesome. Goddamn it. When the fuck am I going to have a fucking amazing BD of the original film?! Fucking love that one like crazy.

I don't think those two balls are for eye location but rather to indicate the top of the turtle's head for the mocap computers.

And the turtles in the live action flicks were way taller than their comic book counterparts. It wasn't 'til TMNT (the animated movie) that a Ninja Turtles movie featured them with their correct height.

Because it'd cover the mocap markers. That's the same reason Bill Nighy didn't wear pirate clothes over his mocap suit when filming the PotC sequels.

Talking about Nighy...is he in the next Wright film? Cuz...I love his inclusion in the first 2 of his trilogy.

I hope so. And I hope it's a meatier role than he had in Hot Fuzz (which was essentially a cameo).

Ah that makes more sense, since Fox is looking at the actor's actual eyes. Still pretty tall for a turtle though!

But they won't have to animate the shells in that section. As long as the shells on the suits are 1:1 what they are on the turtles, the coat would fall right where it would on the turtle. They'd just have to CGI the part of the turtle that is still visible (AKA where the markers can still be seen).

It's not just the shell. The whole torso will be thrown out of alignment with the rest of the mocap sensors. Unless they do a full prosthetic suit for that one scene, the coat will be CGI. Simple as that.

Remember, the idea is to create a complete skeleton with the mocap sensors. Obscuring any is a terrible idea.

I think they just want Raf to be the biggest guy in the group. Which explains the casting of Smalville's Aquaman in the role. I just hope they don't make the film Raf-centric. Raf is at his best when paired against Leo. That rivalry brings out the worst in them in the best possible way as it highlights their weaknesses and strengths.

She's 5' 4". That isn't all that short (for a woman). It's just that Alan Ritchson (Rafael) is 6' 2" and that makes Megan Fox look tiny by comparison.
