I thought this was just some sendup joke until I saw the trailer was actually animated for real.
I can't quite tell whether this is stupidly awesome or awesomely stupid....
I just remember that the original reason the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics was written was as a parody of how a few of the X-Men's writers were so obsessed with Japan and in particular, the teenager's idea of how 'totally radical' ninjas were back in the 80's.

I'm with you on the whole "stupidly awesome or awesomely stupid" conundrum. I mean, yeah it's go all the bat-family, allies, and enemies and whatnot in feudal japan... but then again there appears to be a giant robot rising up.
This is just one of those things you've got to see.

I guess it depends a bit on how serious/silly it's going to be. If they tried to make this like Christopher Nolan/Zack Snyder dark and serious while at the same time having Oda Jokernaga prancing around in purple with a Snidely Whiplash mustache, it'd be incredibly stupid. If it's being written where Batman plays everything straight like a drama, but everything else in the setting is clearly taking the piss, it might be a blast. In that regard, being written by someone from Gurren Lugan is a promising sign.
