10 Revelations That Will Make You See Iconic Screen Superheroes Very Differently

4. Turtles Don't Have Teeth

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles came into being from having encounters with ooze, and the only rat in the world that could somehow master a martial art (apparently before he was even humanised, since the strangest part about the first movie is Master Splinter learning martial arts and getting his ear sliced off when he is still a simple rat. Not like the Secret of Nimh rats or anything, just a regular pet rat. So the turtles are young, and go around like any other teenagers would if they were trained in a deadly martial art and handed weapons, which is to hit things with the weapons and eat pizza, like all the time. And as you can see from the picture above, they have ridiculously impeccable teeth, which seems to suggest that their ninja union has an excellent dental plan. Those things are huge, so pizza would get demolished by them, without too much of a problem. Unfortunately in real life, turtles don't have teeth, so a more fitting image might be someone's grand father trying to gum the pizza to death. Suddenly it doesn't seem as much fun to watch four geriatric patients chowing down on pizza, which is definitely not as cool.
