There's a fan theory that the ooze that made the Turtles and Splinter humanoid was caused by Matt Murdock. In the original comic, they were someone's pets who were knocked out of the owners hands when a young boy saved him from a truck that was carrying the ooze. Fun Fact 2: The Foot was inspired by The Hand. Needles to say, Daredevil was a huge inspiration to the TMNT.

[@ribottostudio]

That fight scene between Raph and Leo in the 07 movie was something that I've always loved. Since the movie was kind of a follow up almost to the 2003 show, anyone who watched that would be like "oh yeah this is the natural progression of their relationship" because Leo and Raph ALWAYS butted heads in that show. To the point where they DID actually duke it out from time to time. There was actually a really good fanfic that was an alternate scene of the same fight, BUT with the younger siblings there. The writer managed to make this scene play out word for word (easy enough) BUT keeping to character with Michelangelo and Donatello with the two trying to break up the fight and failing. Instead of it culminating with Leo getting his butt handed to him, it ended with the two oldest brothers, stabbing the youngest as Mikey kinda pulls an Ash from the first Pokemon movie. Seeing the youngest so gravely injured BY their own hands, it snaps the brothers out of their idiocy and then the family kinda mends, since thanks to Don, Mikey was able to pull through, but with a limp...however it's implied that there's a lot left to work on. Which is SOMETHING I wish the movie had done; Leo was gone for a LONG TIME you can't just come back and expect everything to fall into place, which is what he expected to happen, thus the rift.
