The movie definitely screwed somethings up but it's far from the train wreck fans make it out to be. Fans had already judged the movie before filming even began. And they got the origin story wrong? You mean the story that has been pretty much different in most TMNT incarnations? And the most popular incarnation of said origin is the one that barely resembles the original one?

You're being hypocritical with that train of thought. It's taking elements from what made the turtles popular in the first place. If you don't want them to cater to one group of fans then it should be an original IP that has nothing to do with the turtles. This is as much pandering to the OT fans as a Mirage movie is pandering to comic book fans. Also the few things the movie tried to be original about were the things they were most criticized about.

The reviews could've been worse and the general consensus by non-nerds is that it was a decent enough movie.
