I have nothing against one interpretation having a younger splinter, but this one didn't do it well either,f or a younger splinter you'd also need a much younger TMNT team and a much younger shredder.

While I do like an old splinter it also always makes the problem that shredder must be around the same age so i realize it's not a perfect thing either. But the point is that I don't like 2012 splinter for various reasons not only for being too young and I accidentally voted for him. If I could vote for best I'd probably lean for OT, but 2k3 is close too and I don't think TNM splinter is awful either from the little I've seen of Rise splinter he's easily the worst.
