It would be super impressive if Rogen did not go for "Dude Mikey." I kind of feel like he will because he'll feel like everyone will want him to... but whatever.

Eh... it doesn't make me uneasy that he brings that up about doing and digging movies about teenagers. It makes me uneasy that that's the big thing that attracts him to this. Like, everything is to serve and revolve around that one element.
For me? Ideally, in terms of focus?
35% teenage
65% ninja
(the "mutant" and "turtle" are obviously a given)
By virtue of them not really ever being able to be "teenagers" as we think of them. In fact, their age is sort of irrelevant, whether it's in the title or not. Whether they're 15 or 30, I don't imagine they'd behave wholly differently if they're just stuck in a sewer training day after day to kill a guy one day. Maybe a little more angsty in their teenage years, if that's even a thing biologically in mutant turtles? But then Splinter would just slap them around and it'd be back to doing katas and sh** and that'd be the end of it.
