We all have our say of what should and shouldn't be done with the Ninja Turtles, but the sad truth of the matter is in the end our opinions mean diddly as we don't own the rights to these characters. Even back in 2003 when Peter Laird ran the show with Mirage and 4Kids, we ultimately had no say.

Now say you worked at Viacom and were given the chance to helm the rights to the franchise and hire whoever you wanted to make an animated series or a feature film. What would you desire?

If it were up to me, I'd want Danny Phantom/Fairly OddParents creator Butch Hartman to do a Ninja Turtles cartoon series that's close to the Archie comics, and I'd want Steven Spielberg to produce the next film version and have it heavily based on the Mirage comics and even set in the 1980s.
