I like it when I can do a ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles‘ post that wouldn’t cause Megan Fox to tell me off and this latest clip from the film shows quite a bit of awesome potential. With the movie being released this Friday there isn’t much time to sneak in new preview material as I believe the trailers have all been released, but I have to say that this teaser is a nice throw back to the turtles of old!

Honestly, as action packed as the first trailer was, I think a few fans would have been more forgiving if this had been the first scene we had been given from the movie. It just screams classic Turtles in a way that many of the other trailers haven’t been able to pull off. Which, as it is a re-imaging of the foursome, probably is a good idea since this probably isn’t what we’ll be getting for the full movie. It’s still a good watch though!

In this clip titled ‘The Elevator,’ these brave turtles in a half shell have a moment’s respite from battle and in doing so, decide to keep their cool in a way that fans of the original series should love:

With how much looks like it could go wrong with the movie, this scene stands out as one that could go amazingly right.

Are you planning on checking out the new ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ this weekend on the big screen? Going in what are your expectations for the film and has this clip changed them at all?
