My thoughts on the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.

Today came first trailer for Michael Bay's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and it seems like a good opportunity for me to share what I first thought when I heard that Michael Bay would make a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie . Let me first say that I am not
the largest tmnt fan. I own some of the toys and i intend to read the original black and white comics,
So you're Michael Bay, you've just made the Transformers movies  A modernization of a popular 80s property with a large fan base and many said you ruined it.
So what should you do now ?.
Another modernization of a popular 80s property with a large fan base. Do you whant  to get the same hat again. I mean when something clearly was not a success the first time.
You do the same thing again. Was not the first time enough . Do you want to  get the same backlash again. and you cast the same actress who everyone hated in transformers in a role that she does not resemble at all This is like after Batman & Robin Joel Schumacher decided to make a Superman movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger as Lex Luthor. This is an incredibly stupid career choice.
And speaking of Superman Leave the fanboy properties to people who actually care about them like
Zack Snyder , Say what you want about him as a director, but he is clearly a comic fan. And care about the source material. Go and make your loud and stupid action movies with boobs and explosions. But leave things people actually care about in peace I'm not saying that this movie will be bad the trailer looked cool. But But i think this is an extremely stupid career move from  Michael Bay.

Lupita Nyongo's big role could be The Dark Tower

I saw a while ago the days episode of Morning Movie. Nancy Grace talked about how
Lupita Nyong'o needs a big role to solidify her as a star. So I thought she could play Susannah Dean in The Dark Tower.

There was recently talk about Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul playing Eddie Dean and Liam Neeson taking on an unknown role (My vote is on Cort). Think about it, The Dark Tower. starring two Academy Award winners (Three of Russell Crowe still is signed on) from the Academy 

Award winning director of A Beautiful Mind and Apollo 13. based on the best selling novels by acclaimed award winning author Stephen King the mind behind The Shining and The Shawshank Redemption.shouldn't that sell tickets. And viewer ratings since Ron Howard also plane to make a TV series.plus they have a Prime Time Emmy Award winning and Golden Globe nominated actor and it never hurts. So what do you think about Lupita Nyong'o as Susannah Dean and do you think that Liam Neeson should play Cort, (He played another mentor to a badass in Batman Begins).
