    I'm curious.

    The great thing about the 1990 movie is that no one expected it to be live action. That was part of the marketing remember the poster "this is no cartoon". The idea of taking a slightly wacky concept and making it animated shows a lack of imagination and in this case I suspect having no other options. The Imagi movie was made because every studio at the time passed on a live action movie so they settled for a cgi animated movie. I suspect that after near franchise killing failure of Out Of The Shadows Paramount does not want to invest in a live action film and crank out a cheap cartoon instead.

    They may have settled for CGI...but the movie was actually really solid. My biggest dream would be if they did another movie, animated or otherwise, is that they'd follow the IDW comic series. I loved how it blended all the awesome facets of the various TMNT iterations into one cohesive whole.

    I mean, animation might be cheaper but it can also look absolutely phenomenal from a visual perspective with the right touch and budget.

    Heck, some of the most popular Turtles interpretations have been in animation.

    The first animated TMNT movie is my second favorite Turtles movie.

    I am down.

    I always wished that had gotten a sequel. Best Ninja Turtles movie since the original, and the last two movies haven't come close to that quality. Shame this isn't the sequel to that bit of awesomeness, but hopefully it will still be great and amazing. They do work amazingly well in animation, both 2D and 3D. Also work great as live action suits but that's another thing...

    I wonder if they'll have Casey and April married or dating like in the comics, that is if Casey is even in the movie...the original live action movie is one of my all time favorites and a movie that I can still quote like half of the movie from memory...possibly because I've watched it hundreds of times...
