First look at Splinter from “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles”

In this new TV spot we get our first look at Splinter in the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.

I am liking the look of Splinter better than the look of the Turtles.  Splinter is still a rat, I will admit I was worried about that.  From the brief image, it looks like their might be a sword in his hand.  If that is true then would make him more of a Yoda like character and I would be alright with that.

The movie will be hitting theaters on Aug 8th.
