This film looks cool. The trend of some of these animated films using a slower frame rate is something I'm all for. Into The Spiderverse really made this popular for the past couple years.
Here with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem we're seeing a similar style, but with a color grading much darker and sewer like at times. I think it's on brand for sure, but is it something that will be distracting for an entirety of the film? We'll have to wait and see on that one. I think with this film the theatrical experience might be really cool with the darker tones. Just think... Going into a dark theater and the light emitting from the screen is toned down and grimy. I am definitely interested in that experience.
I think we're probably overdue for a new Turtles movie, and this looks like a great new take on the franchise. I'll check it out.
