I'd be great if Geddy Tarkovski did a hand drawn cell animation feature length Turtles flick.

Recreate the style of the Fred Wolf Cartoon and do it well this time with as much attention to detail in each frame as Korgoth the Barbarian, or Nausicca of the Valley of the Wind.

The voice actor of Aku in Samurai Jack was Mako. Mako did the voice work for Splinter in the 2007 CG movie. Mako is about 5'6 100lbs and was an older man in the 80's when he played the wizard in Conan the Barbarian. In my opinion Mako is too old and too short to play Shredder but if he did the voice of Splinter again I think that would be great.

I saw a few someones suggest Jackie Chan for Splinter, I think that if Jackie played Hamato Yoshi, Jackie's charisma would come through for the character which would make it have much more impact when he is killed by Shredder, which in turn might make the revenge story more welcome to the audience to accept because everyone Loves Jackie Chan. (That of course is if the studios are going that route with the story.)
