Shouldn't they have turned into some kind of turlte mutant instead? Like it happened to Hun in turtles forever. I know it doesn't serve the purposes of the show to have them mutated into turtles, but still.
Well, they did go out of their way to have a more significant interaction with the animals. Chris was bitten and Xever ate that snakehead fish, so the DNA was in their blood stream.

But it just makes previous mutations make less sense. Mainly Splinter... a rat ran across his shoe and that was enough to turn him into a rodent. I guess it could have happened differently, but that's all the flashback show's happening.

You can assume the spider on Vic's hand quickly sucked his blood or something

Fair enough! Not everything else, though.

I see your point, and I think I came up with an explanation for why the ooze doesn't have the same effect every time: it's not the same ooze. One of the main plot points of the series is that the Krang have been kidnapping scientists to help them modify the ooze (since it's not doing what they want it to do... whatever that is), so it's seems logical to assume that it has foregone certain modifications that might have changed it's behavior, thus explaining why some people are mutated into a certain animal by simply touching them [splinter(?) and the spiderbytes], and other may require to have the DNA plunged into their bloodstream to work [Xever and Bradford].

It's a stretch, but I guess that's a somewhat logical explanation to all this.

I think they just say the turtles are half human because it mildly reduces the creepiness of turtle/human shipping.

Maybe he forgot that he was wearing sandals on that day.

Yeah, maybe still works even if an unmutated animal JUST touches you.

Because he used to be human, would Dogpound be considered a werewolf (dogs are a subspecies of wolf)

Because the target audience for TMNT 2012 would have a perfect understanding of the word 'bipedal'.

That pic of Karai looks like a cross between Karai and Mavis from Hotel Transylvania.

The real question is what does the mutagen actually do in dimension X since in this dimension it functions differently.

It's the Kraang's equivalent of viagra.
