Sometimes it seems like "if it's not Mirage, it's FW" as if those are the only two things that have ever come from the franchise.

Personally, I consider the 1990 film a staple of its own for the franchise. It's a great medium between the two. I would argue it's neither Mirage nor FW, but a touch of both.

It's also the only TMNT film to fully treat the Turtles like flesh and blood people, not just caricatures. That campfire scene is just beautiful and that scene where they arrive at April's apartment after Splinter is MIA, I'm right there with them, and you can't tell me you don't feel Raph's anger when they find their layer destroyed and Splinter gone, presumably dead. That's the only TMNT film where I've felt emotions such as those.
