Dudes, get a load of the theme tune for the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film

Not so radical dude...

Not so radical dude…

No Michael Bay. Just no.

After watching the first teaser trailers for the – and we use this term very loosely here – “producer’s”  take on bastardising yet another of our beloved childhood memories*, we decided to give this rebooted franchise the benefit of the doubt.

Now though, we’re finding it harder and harder to stay on board with the new film, especially following the release of the absolutely woeful Atlantic Records theme tune, performed by Juicy J, Wiz Khalifa, and Ty Dolla $ign, and imaginatively-titled ‘Shell Shocked ft. Kill The Noise & Madsonik.

Is JOE just getting old? Are we just being overly-nostalgic for our precious 1990s cartoon? Or is this brand new theme tune pure and utter pants?

We’re going to go with the latter and we think you’ll agree…

And here’s how it should have sounded…

*We’re talking about Transformers you eejits, not Pearl Harour.
