The Rise movie was so so good. I haven't watched much of Rise, but after the movie, I'm definitely going to go back and watch them.
The CGI series is still my favorite, I feel like after the first season it really finds its footing and it a great mix of story, comedy and action with lots of throwbacks and references.
I feel like like the second Bay movie more than most people? The first Bay movie was only alright, but I thought the second one knocked it out of the park. It was like they realized it was their last chance and went "You know what? Let's just make the 80s cartoon" Bebop, Rocksteady, a much better Shredder, Krang and his android body, the Technodrome, Casey Jones? They just crammed it all in and I loved every minute of it.
