Said that a year ago and nobody wanted to touch it. The second that cartoon was created by mirage, the turtles were ruined if we're going to keep it 100. So I'm really

by all of this. If you want the turtles to be done "right" then it needs to be rated R or at least a hard pg 13 but the closest we'll get to that is the 1990 movie and nothing since has come close. And you're right, the backlash against the grittiness of the first one made them go with something lighter and more in the vein of the cartoon for the 2nd one and the franchise has been on a downfall movie wise ever since, except
TMNT which I know a lot of cats on here probably didn't see because it was animated therefore it must've been wack (coli logic). It's the same way dudes bytched about the robocop remake "ruining the franchise" when I do believe Robocop 3 exists and that awful tv show exists and the robocop cartoon. We will probably never get something in the vein of the '90 movie again and people gotta be ok with that. Not only was it a relatively small budget at the time but it was an independent movie. The turtles won't be an independent movie ever again, that ship has sailed
