I don't think that really was to much of a butchering. It seemed like more of a reinterpretation of well-traveled material. I mean the comics don't offer much, seeing as he died in the first volume of the original material.
I actually hope he stays dead. I'd much see the Triceratons or Baxter Stockman show up among others. Or the Utroms who are responsible for the Turtles mutation in the first place. They've tested the waters on how much belief the audience can suspend in TMNT and it seems they can suspend it a lot.
