The new reboot coming out proves that there will never be a sequel to this. Well I wish there was one. I loved the animation and this movie set up a great TMNT universe we never did and never will get to see further explored.
shareFrom what I read this is a sequel itself to the original 3 live action films. Perhaps it is a closer. I haven't seen the end myself. I'm watching it with my son right now.
shareWasn't a huge financial success. A lot of money went into it didn't get the return they hoped for.
shareI would have liked to have seen a sequel for this movie, I grew up with the 80's turtles and got burnt out on them after the third movie and lost interest. When this movie came out, I figured it would have been based on the 2003 turtles which I never had an interest in but I ended up getting a copy in a bunch of burnt movies my uncle had made for me and I gave it a shot, I thought it was pretty good, it's-it's own "universe" and it's own story. After the shredder mask was revealed at the end I thought for sure there would be TMNT 2 and maybe FINALLY a movie with BeBop, Rocksteady, Krang (with his body), Baxter (human and fly version), the Technodrome etc...I doubt they'll be in the new film either excluding Baxter but I doubt he will be a fly in the new film. Maybe when they make a sequel to the next film we will see that stuff, it would be cool if the new film closed with a glimpse of the Technodrome and maybe Baxter sitting at a desk with a fly buzzing around him or something like that, I think that would be a good set up for a sequel...
"Plum near cut his head in two mmmmm hmmmm"
Mirage studios and Imagi animation couldn't agree on a plot for the sequel and so it fell into development hell until Michael Bay got his greasy mitts on it.
A real shame as I would have liked a sequel with Shredder and Krang.
Wasn't a box office success and ideas for a follow up couldn't be agreed upon.
shareWasn't a box office successmore then one of you have said this, but this isn't TRUE. It made $95 million worldwide on a very modest (for an all CGI film) $34 mill budget.
Because it wasn't a very good movie.
