I agree though, that first movie is fantastic. Take the beats of the comic and blend it with characterization of the cartoon, not to mention those timeless Jim Henson suits. Admittedly not a die hard TMNT fan, but the new movie looks fun! No more CG ogre abominations. I still find it funny how inspired it is by spiderverse by way of graffiti art vs comic dots

Give the 2012 3d animated show a go. I recommend it as someone who enjoyed and watched the 80s and 90s original cartoon growing up. And yes the 2003 2d remake was good too. Felt very X-Men Evolution for me.
