Probably because they have no animation studio to do it for them. The original cartoon was produced by Fred Wolf, and 4kids did the 2k3 cartoon, but neither of them would agree to do animation not based on their respective cartoons.
Mirage isn't a very big company. It has like 10 employees, most of whom are gone now. They would have to partner with some new animation studio like Sony or Warner Brothers and pitch a movie idea to them. And of course those studios would never bother to produce one unless they thought it would sell big.
Mirage isn't like Marvel or DC where they can fund animated movies easily. I also doubt Viacom/Nick will produce anything that doesn't fit in with their new CG cartoon.
