If you're a large studio, making a movie adaption of a comic, how do you not look at the success of No Way Home and ask yourself what you can do to get some of that cheddar?

It's suprising that it's taken all this time for someone to suggest this. Usually whenever there's a hit comic book superhero movie very quickly there are people on here saying they should give TMNT the same treatment particularly given that it's something the franchise had done successfully in animation.

Still while fondly remembered I don't think the 90s movies had quite the cultural impact of the Raimi Spider-Man trilogy. While the Amazing Spider-Man series could be compared to the Platinum Dunes TMNT movies in the fact that there were maligned the former at least had a cult following and most people could probably agree that Garfield was a good actor in them and deserved another chance. There's a few people here and there online that argue "c'mon guys the Bay turtles weren't that bad" but I doubt there's enough that want them back that they'd be a draw.

There's also the hurdle that you'd have to set up a new live action version of TMNT first. One that is unique and distinct from the others before doing a multiverse crossover. No way could you open a new series of movies with a crossover.

I hear this a lot online but as I've already said the 1990 movie doesn't have quite the cultural impact that a revival would be a guaranteed hit. Also TMNT films will always be targeted at young people, ideally teenagers and people in their early twenties rather than little kids they targeted with the last movie and they will not be interested in a period piece set in the late 80s/early 90s.

Wait...WHAT?!? It's the most globally dominant genre on the planet and has been for over a decade. Most comic book super hero movies are license to print money. The few that do fail are real **** ups.
