TMNT for 2012

Before we begin, this article has nothing to do with the prophecies and hype of 2012. Nor did Roland Emmerich secretly place the turtles in his movie.

So, if you’re still with me, today Nickelodeon (Viacom) picked up the global rights to TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES. They plan on doing a new movie in 2012 as well as a television show that will be CG-animated. Nick’s sister company, Paramount will be taking on the movie.

There are no details as to whether it will be live action or CG but they do have Scott Mednick (300, WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE) set to produce. Any turtle news makes me want to jump up and down, but even the slight possibility that they would ever do live action again would be awesome! The last time I did a piece having to do with TMNT a lot of you were with me on doing a live action over another CG movie. Hopefully they hear our cries.

Also, if you regularly watch the latest TMNT animated show on CW4Kids on Saturday morning, the show will still air on that channel until August 31st. So what say you? Are you ready or not?
