Do you ever think about the little kids growing up with TMNT now?

Something that a lot of us don't really think about, is that there was a whole new generation of kids that were first exposed to Turtles via 4kids TMNT 2k3 series and/or the Imagi 4th movie.

Most of us here are the old veteran fans from the 80's and 90's who grew up during the original TMNT fad, back when TMNT was a worldwide phenomenon and grew up with the original stuff.

Do you think the new generation of TMNT fans will have completely different views on the franchise than us older fans? Most of the original cartoon is out on DVD, as well as the original live-action movies, so its not like the older stuff isn't available for them. When they get older they'll likely discover the comics, and if they're still available by then, will probably get into those.

Do you ever think about how different it would be if you did not grow up with the original TMNT fad from the late 80's and 90's? I actually hope these kids age a few years and come into the fandom, just to see how their views are different than our own.
