I never had a problem with black leather x-men costumes, Prime's flames, etc. I don't want every version of the different characters to be identical. Where's the fun in that? I don't want to see the same look and story over and over and over. How many times have we seen the death of Thomas and Martha Wayne? It gets tiring. Letting TMNT look like teenagers instead of nudists wearing belts was a good idea to stress their individuality, promote their personalities, and also shows their desire to "fit in" with human culture.
I don't have problems with the vast majority of adaptations, gun-toting Batman being a good example. But I hate the look of Bay's TMNT. It smacks of those 90s videogame characters who wore shades and had a raised eyebrow, like some old dude's idea of what kids would like. I find everything about the attempt embarrassing. They seem to be leftovers from when he wanted aliens. Things like giving Donny glasses and making Splinter... I don't even wanna type it. I mean Bay has serious form with this stereotype shit. It's just depressing for me when The Next Mutation isn't the lowest they've gone lol.
