But back to our subject, just because he can doesn't mean he should, maybe so.
I for one respect the fact that he voices his opinion, even if it clashes with everybody else's. All his fan's going "You shouldn't pull the plug on it if you had a time machine." and he just goes "Yeah, there's a big chance I'd pull the plug on it.". It takes character to do that.
I don't think he should fake enthusiasm about IDW or other mediums if that's not what he feels.

I also think some people are overlooking or downplaying the context of his responses. He never just says, "yeah, I wish I never invented the turtles." He goes on to weigh the pros and cons and that even though he ultimately would (if not for his daughter), he would certainly hesitate before doing so. People only use his final decision (which is simply hypothetical) as a means to judge him without noting the context at all. If people actually read his entire responses, he doesn't sound like a bitter old man. Someone who has been worn out by the franchise? Sure. But he also gives plenty of evidence that he's doing his best to be honest without sounding like a bitter old man.
