I think any hope for that is out the window. These movies are all about big dumb spectacle.

Yes, Shredder beat the crap out of them like he was supposed to, but he didn't really fight them with ninja techniques, he just fought like a Transformer. That would've worked a little bit better for Krang, honest to god.

in film-1 there was spectacle (the mountain scene) but done so away from the general population. thing is, even if there is a Krang invasion, that centers itself in the middle of a parade, and Turtles do battle, how do you explain that away to the general public? They are ninja, and in every other series, regardless of how intense, and big their battles got, it was contained primarily to the shadows. To expose them to the public outright, completely changes their mythos/dynamic.
