Imagine Bay was working on a football movie. All the football fans would be excited because he does great work. Then, they found out that in HIS movie, the ball would be round. Because, there were so many things that could be improved about the movie with a round ball instead of an oval ball. Well, no matter how awesome his plot, effects, and marketing were, football fans would be pissed off because: that isn't a football.

Turning mutants into aliens is just as bad. It would also be akin to turning superman into a mutant. Its just wrong and way to annoying to overlook. I pray to god this is a marketing stunt.
Football is a real thing. It exists.

Ninja Turtles, as far as I know, are not real. And never were.

So a different standard exists for the acceptability of interpretation.

And, by the way, for some people, the shape of a real football IS round. And some of those people ARE pissed off when football is played with an oval ball. But their thing does not cease to exist because the new thing comes into being.
