Did Spider-Verse Pave the Way for TMNT: Mutant Mayhem's Animation Style?
Sony's 2018 gamble opened the door for other studios, and the Turtles shared some of the same art team.
I still think that without Spider-Verse being such a hit, TMNT: Mutant Mayhem in the style we got may not have been made. Into the Spider-Verse and Across the Spider-Verse changed animation in a way that proved other studios could be successful.
Sony's 2018 leap of faith opened the door for Mutant Mayhem
For so many years we were used to Disney and Pixar ruling the animated movie world, with DreamWorks sometimes chiming in. When Sony challenged this in 2018, it allowed other studios to take the leap of faith, pun intended.
The Turtles shared some of the Spider-Verse art team
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had some of the same art team as Spider-Verse. The film's co-producer insisted its comic book style was more influenced by The Mitchells vs. the Machines, which he also produced.
Do you think Mutant Mayhem would exist in this style without Spider-Verse?
