5 Upcoming Movies That Spoil The Ending In The Trailer

5. Krang - TMNT

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Krang

I don't care for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I never really got the appeal growing up and hearing grown men say with borderline sincerity that the 1990 film "holds up" makes me wince. The 2014 reboot did little change this opinion, a tonally misjudged assault on the senses that actually managed to be worse than that year's Transformers film.

Clearly I'm not the only one who wasn't a fan, because for the sequel - impotently called Out Of The Shadows - Michael Bay's unboxing as many toys as he can, throwing Casey Jones, Beebop and Rocksteady into the mix along with a more comic/show-accurate version of Shredder.

That'd be enough to get your average TMNT fan in, surely, but he hasn't stopped there, bringing in squid-controlled automaton (that's what he is, right?) Krang. And, because if it isn't in the trailer it's not really in a Bay movie, he just had to be revealed months before, revealed as the big bad in what is quite clearly the "fight to save the world" end sequence (one that ironically is riffing directly on the first movies).
