Shredder's dumbass plan... *spoilers* - Page 3

They call it mutagen because that's what the substance was called in the 87 toon. It was designed as a cure by Sacks and O'Neil the whole time. Why call a cure Mutagen when that would mean it was meant to mutate something? They would have Cleary seen if giving the baby turtles superpowers as April caught it on film as a little girl.

As for the plan, Shredder was committing suicide because of his open eye holes on his helmet.

Something that would fixed this would have been Shredder betraying Sachs and revealing all along that there was no cure, and he was planning on killing everyone in the city, and mutating the survivors that actually paid for the cure.

In the IDW comic Mutagen is used as a cure and while it is too soon to tell it didn't have any negative side effects. They could have been using that as their angle.

I think I mentioned that earlier in this topic. The comic specifically states that the ooze is what cures and the mutagen mutates. This movie didn't bother to separate that.

but see i feel this movie did. the ooze wasnt exactly named, but i think we overlook aprils line about it being from outerspace. her father didnt correct her. then sacks says they created the mutagen, and i took that as they made it from the ooze april saw, and injected it in the turtles and splinter.

That's still reaching badly. April wouldn't know about where it came from, wether or not Sachs corrected her means nothing. Has HE said it.... then yeah, that's a big difference. I guess a sequel can expand on that... but ugh.... I sure don't want a continuation of this mess.

The gas thing was dumb. Now if they needed the turtles blood because they wanted to create other mutants, that would have been awesome. The turtles should have faced another mutant in this before facing the shredder.
