Do you consider the movie canon?
Do you consider the TMNT movie part of official canon? Or do you consider it like Next Mutation as "non-canon?"

I think of it as Parallel Universe... kinda like the current Star Trek movies. Not quite right, but some of the core things work...

Whether we like it or not (And I'm definitely one of the ones who don't), this is just another universe with it's own Turtles.
6-foot bulletproof Turtles. *sigh*

I'm not sure you know what "canon" means.

No, not at this point in time at least. If it goes through a sequel or two (or more, given how these movies work these days) and at some point brings something new to them that people generally like and adds something good to the Turtles as characters and sticks around in the future... ok, then maybe those bits. But until then, no, too soon, if at all.
Besides, so much of it is a hodgepodge of existing sources anyhow and altered variations on already established things that will stay the old way, it didn't do too much in terms of anything truly original. (At least not anything original that wasn't silly and should prob be cast aside, i.e. bulletproof.) |

Since when was NM ever considered "not-canon"? It is more or less canon, at least for the LA movie-verse, since they were still in the subway lair, and Splinter was still Yoshi's pet.

No, I don't consider it canon. Honestly, I don't think I can call any TMNT universe after the Nick buyout to be canon for that matter. It's a new TMNT for a new generation of fans. That's my 2 cents.

It's canon to it's own universe.
