It does'nt matter if it's because of rights or not, what the original cartoon series fascists can't seem to comprehend is that Laird DOES...NOT...GIVE...ONE...FLIPPING...TOSS ABOUT KRANG, ROCKSTEADY, BEBOP, THE TECHNODROME etc

They were never part of HIS story arc, the movie was created to follow the MIRAGE comics specifically, that's why it remains Pete's favourate film, that's why it stuck two fingers up at the audience that knew nothing about the comics.

The movie was for the fans of the comic, nothing more, nothing less, the new cartoon is a new re-telling of the comics for not only fans of the comics, but new fans as well, it will never feature any original series concepts outside of in-joke references.
