‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem’: The Easter Eggs & References
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem reboots the "Heroes in a Halfshell" in spectacular fashion, and it's loaded with plenty of Easter eggs and references to the superhero team's past and beyond.
Cynthia Utrom and TCRI One of the film's most mysterious characters is Cynthia Utrom - the villainous head of TCRI. As April O'Neil reveals at the end of the film, TCRI stands for Techno Cosmic Research Institute, which is an organization that was first seen in motion in the 2003 series.
Spongebob Mascot Being a production of Nickelodeon Studios, it's hardly surprising that one or two references to other Nickelodeon properties snuck into Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. When Splinter tries to take the Turtles to Times Square, we see the iconic tourist destination retained its propensity for cheaply made mascots. The one we see is possibly the most popular of all Nickelodeon characters, SpongeBob Squarepants.
Vanilla Ice's Ninja Rap As the Turtles knock around the gang of thieves, the radio of one of the cars begins to play a familiar tune. That song would be the "Ninja Rap" by Vanilla Ice, which was the infectiously catchy hit song that was created for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze in 1991. It's just one of many classic nineties rap songs in the film, but easily one of the most recognizable for fans.
