You know what gets me though about Donnie in the movie considering he didn’t have his mystic guns from the get go? When they all get their powers taken, why didn’t Donnie grab his tech bō or any of the tech that he had been solely relying on for most of the series? Like dang maybe it wouldn’t have defeated the Kraang but I imagine it would have helped 😭.

I just find it a little wack that Donnie, who used to fight exclusively with his tech would just be equally nerfed and out of his element after getting his mysticism removed compared to his brothers that almost solely relied on mystic powers.

But, I assume the reason is that they didn’t want Donnie to be advantaged like compared to his brothers in the movie, plus, they wanted the movie to be accessible to non-fans and so maybe the series-exclusive tech bō would have confused them. Also, I know Donnies tech bō (and his other tech) broke during the Shredder attack so it’s possible he never made a new one. I mean he didn’t remake Sheldon either as shown in the movie so I’m curious to what capacity he works on new tech at all after acquiring mystic powers.

In the movie, we see that he can materialize permanent objects, specifically battle shells, that are different to his temporary weapons, which glow a transparent purple compared to the solid objects.

So it’s possible that after the series, he focused his efforts on advancing his mystic abilities to catch up with his brothers, causing him to have less time to build tech. This heightened mysticism plus limited time to make tech traditionally could have made him more inclined to just will tech into existence using his powers when the situation required it. If he had been making tech using his powers and never got the chance to rebuild his old stuff, it’s possible he didn’t use traditional tech against the Kraang because he just didn’t have any available and couldn’t make more without his powers. Or at least this is what I’m gonna tell myself as a cope

Anyways I realize now that this is kind of detached from the original post, but I just keep thinking about how different the movie would be if Donnie just used his old tech.

or what actually would have happened:

The fact, that I've been rewatching "Howl's moving castle" while doing it, gave it so much more love from me...
