http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/02/03/report-the-titans-tv-series-line-up-revealed

We've already got Nightwing, Barbara Gordon, Hawk and Dove, Raven, and Starfire confirmed. I'm looking forward to this!

that's a shitty roster. Hawk and Dove? really?... and Barbara? really?

bermm

The **** is wrong with Hawk and Dove?

nothing as characters, a lot as titans.

did they wanna make a Birds or Prey series, but where too scared to name it that because a live-action BoP already failed in past?

I know they have a history with the Titans, but they're not even close to being who you'd name when you think about the Titans.

like the cast choices but lets all face it the choices were obvious...

next up should be some good(hopefully) cast announcements

Ok, fair enough.

Still, we've got Raven, Starfire and Dick. That's not a bad start. I honestly don't expect to see Aqualad in it any time soon, so I expected them to replace certain people.

If they were making a BOP series, H&D would be a push even for that.

I really don't know what Barbara is doing there though. Possibly an excuse to do a triangle with her, Kori and Dick, maybe?

i had the exact same thought about the love triangle thing. I feel like some teen angstyness is unavoidable 'cause they have to try getting the teen female demo.


A Titans roster isn't complete without some Beast Boy, imo. Cyborg's absence is probably due to them not wanting to conflict with the cinematic universe.

I'm guessing Kid Flash and Superboy are too much to hope for? If we have Nightwing, we should be able to get them.

Yeah, Beast Boy would be good. You're probably right about Victor too.

I wouldn't mind seeing Superboy, tbh.

Where's Beastie Boy and Cyborg? We need those two.

I mean, if Flash can be on TV and in film why not Cyborg?

Think it's more likely they'll do crossovers with the Supergirl series coming up.

doubt it.

Not sure, but i can't recall there ever being crossovers between shows that air on different networks.

Buffy and Angel Iirc.

Plus both the networks these 2 shows will air are owned by Time Warner I think.. Not completely sure though..

Angel is a spinoff of Buffy. not the same thing.

I'd welcome it tho.

Buffy and Angel were on the same network, btw.

Originally posted by marwash22

For the most part yes. But Buffy switched to UPN for it's last 2 seasons whilst Angel remained on the WB, but they would still do crossovers.

Buffy transferred from WB to UPN after season 5, while Angel stayed on WB network for all its 5 seasons.

They were discussing Buffy appearing in Angel finale, but scheduling didn't work out. So it is possible for shows on different networks to crossover.

almost anything is possible, but using Buffy/Angel as a precedent is terribly flawed.

screw you guys for making me argue this since i would love it if it actually happened. ahuh

By the way, I'm not sure about crossovers but Marvel's obviously having all their Live Action series as part of the same Shared Universe- The MCU. And that includes series on different networks and mediums.

So DC should be able to do it in the realm of just Tv. If they want to plan it out and be cool about it. But you're right they probably won't.

I feel Beast Boy would be too big of a budget for a TV show. As for Cyborg...idk why they wouldn't add him. I feel like they could make a good look for him with prosthetics and makeup.

Yeah, I guess that's true about beast boy. Kinda disappointing, but still excited.

I actually think they might end up adding Cyborg down the line. If he gets popular in the movies, it can only help the tv show.

sorry never read the comics i tried watching the cartoon on cartoon network i couldn't watch it! i hope the live action version is good!!

http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/10/03/titans-every-character-and-actor-confirmed-for-dcs-new-tv-series

Looks like this is finally moving ahead. They've got actors and characters already confirmed. They still haven't confirmed an actor for Beast Boy though

It would be awesome if this show turns out to be good, but why do I get the feeling it will be terrible?

Lindsey Gort (Impastor, Lucifer) has been cast as Police Detective Amy Rohrbach, the new partner of Dick Grayson.

She was the subject of this week's Lucifer, coincidentally.

Hawk & Dove costumes. Nooice...

http://cdn.collider.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/titans-hawk-dove.jpeg

Man, I really hope this show kicks ass.

If its on CW with the current attitude of the other 4 DC shows this season then I doubt it. Which is a shame since these are some cool costume designs that don't appear to use too much leather.

This show is knocking the costumes out of the park. They changed Hawk and Doves costumes but modernized them with armor like Watchmen. They look good

I like how Hawk's got wear and tear on his suit. As opposed to Dove who's more likely to dodge.

Trailer.

-PPofXaJ4go

Jesus they are trying way too hard.

So edgy it makes my eyes bleed.

The cgi for Raven looks like some horrible Ring clone from the early 2000s and Starfire looks like shit.

It seems like a violent SNL parody of what a teen titans show would be.

At least Teen Titans will appeal to the edgy teen audience now, I guess? Not sure yet whether to feel worse about this, or TT Go still kicking/having a movie.

I really don't like the Starfire look but the 5 seconds of action in the trailer already looks better than 5 hours of Iron Fist.

TT Go is at least aware of its own reputation. This try-hard bullshit doesn't do anyone any favours.

Yeah, Dick isn't a depressed, dark edgelord, and he sure as hell doesn't brutalize thugs the way he did there (did he just gun down three thugs and crush anothers neck with his boot?). Where's the quips and wit? Raven also looks off. I know she's a hard character to translate, but the goth look can be pulled off better than that. They got Starfire wrong too. When did she start spewing fire out of her hands and frying thugs? Hopefully they nail her personality.

Is it too much to at least hope for a good story? So far this is looking even worse than the CW DC shows and those have been rough lately.

If they wanted to have some edgelord who shanks people in the neck why not just choose Damian Wayne?

Right? Or Jason Todd.

And point taken I guess @ Pr.

I don't know what's worse: Titans GO being too goofy or this Titans being too serious.

God I want to vomit.

not sure if I wanna pay $75 bucks for this

I KNOW I DON'T!

The Teen Titans cartoon from the early 2000's was a good show. Do more of that and less of...whatever this abomination is.

Also which universe is this in? Same one as the Justice League? I doubt it's in the Arrowverse.

I can't get over how bad everyone looks. Never thought I'd say this but do you think they could ask the DC filmmakers for help? At least they know what they're doing in the costume department and actually make the heroes look as good as the cosplayers. Here everyone in Titans looks like a bootleg copy! Did WB actually approve of this show and we're sure their comic con lineup didn't get hacked?

Diversity?

Are these people so lazy that the only way they can create diversity is via gender or race swapping? Are they that devoid of creativity?

I'm not sure I understand. Who in Titans was gender or race swapped? I mean, I guess Starfire isn't orange enough, but that's the least of her problems.

Starfire is black in this.

Indeed, so technically any race could play her as long as they made her look orange. But they indeed did not. Not sure why.

Black is the new orange. Zing!

My question is why they gave Starfire hair that looks like each strand is a giant gummy worm. Also that fur coat. Why?

No, I get that. I just don't think you can call it a swap, considering there are no orange humans unless you sit outside a tanning salon all day.

She should be orange, sure. but on the list of problems this show has, I wouldn't rate it nearly close to the biggest one.

Bingo.

This show looks terrible, but a black woman being cast as Starfire in of itself isn't one of those problems. People whining about "gender" and "race swapping" are silly fools.

Just to throw it out there I guess,

https://imgur.com/a/A5tBUgF

A cosplay like that's proof enough that you can have a black chick as Starfire and make it work.

This Starfire just doesn't work for plenty other reasons.

When cosplay looks less awkward than the actual character portrayal... I mean obviously she doesn't have a professional budget costume, but she looks way more natural than what we see in the trailer. Maybe it's because I am not too invested in the character, but I don't give two shits if they make her black, as long as it actually works within the show. But that shit in the trailer looks bad.

Anyway, trailer looks suspect overall as well IMO. Looks like they are going way too deep into the edgy, dark and angsty route for my liking. The CW melodrama can already get a bit much sometimes.

Originally posted by TheVaultDweller

That alone is enough for me to look forward to Titans.

It was also heavily implied in BVS that Batman wasn't always a killer; that Robin's death was what pushed him over the edge. If this show is just straight up "Batman's always been a nutbag killer", then that's even worse.

I thought its only on Netflix for those of us living outside of the States... Because the DC App is not available for us. How unfortunate we have less subscriptions to pay

Everything I have seen of this so far makes me think it will be hot garbage. But I will give the first episode or two a shot. Who knows? Maybe I will be pleasantly surprised. I sincerely doubt it though.

I quite liked the first episode.

Was meh.

Acting and dialogue was cheesy at times.

And trying wayyy to hard to be dark and gritty.

But wasnt awful. Will continue watching to see where it goes.

This still looks terrible.

It isn't quite irredeemably horrible like Inhumans but it just might get there.

Oh cant get that bad lol

But yeah the tone isnt working. If Youre going for a Daredevil type tone then you gotta have better dialogue and acting.

And yeah its true they seem to have gone the BvS route making Batman brutal. Exceptionally brutal to the extent that he is a wanted criminal.

I actually liked it. The acting was somewhat subpar, but I'm kind of digging the tone. I'm onboard for now.

Man, episode 2 was brutal!

Yeah, that first picture of Anna Diop just ruined it for me, where she looks like some trashy East London hooker.

It's not that Starfire can't be played by a woman of colour, since of course she is a woman of distinct colour. Just not this one.

It's a shame Hannah John-Kamen (Killjoys, Ant-Man and the Wasp) wasn't available for this role. She would have been dead on perfect, to me.

thoroughly enjoyed both eps thus far. I think this will come together pretty good as long they don't try to expand the universe to quickly.

im ok with starfire I literally only seen her dressed like a tart thus far, not her costume or anything. she has amnesia or smthn so she doesn't know who she is or anything.... so we haven't even seen what she will look like as starfire.

hawk from hawk and dove though... how does this guy still get superhero work

^ Do you not find it dark just for the sake of being dark though?

Robin just seems needlessly violent to me. Its Like theyre going for a Daredevil/Punisher vibe, but trying way too hard.

I agree with uptick of violence and blood splatter is trying to hard to be like the good marvel shows.

dark for sake of being dark I would not say though if they are trying to expand on the Batman v supes universe. i always thought a live action batman should be more brutal than he normally has been portrayed in most media so i can see robin going out like that - the whole strike fear in the heart of man idea...

but yeah the crappy horror blood spray is no bueno for me

This series gets better with every episode. In fact, Titans is turning into a real pleasure to watch.

Ive seen 3 episodes and it has improved with each one.

Wont be able to watch the rest though until its on Netflix.

ive been checking it out on firestick... yeah it shows a lot of promise.

I'm shocked. I was gonna avoid it cuz I didn't wanna be blinded by the edginess of this show. Maybe I will give it a shot.

The edginess is on top. Like curse words for no reason, and Robin throwing darts in peoples eyes seems kinda unnecessary.

But once you accept the tone, its decent.

Not saying this is Daredevil or even close, just that its turning out to be on the entertaining side.

So without even knowing the context at all I'm gonna say it was deserved. Well done Robin. People need to realize darts aren't to be taken lightly.

I finally got around to checking some of this out. Watched the first two episodes. Maybe it's because I went in with low expectations, but I thought it was solid. Yeah, it does go a bit overboard sometimes, but I feel like the darker tone actually works with the story so far. At least overall.

Managed to catch up. So yeah episode 5 was all sorts of fun.

Yeah I think the big difference between this darkness/violence of this Robin and the darkness/violence of BvS Batman is its part of the story that this Robin has issues, which is he recognises and is the reason he left Batman. Unlike BvS where him killing people was an after thought that we were just supposed to accept and think its cool.

Plus fro the latest episode its clear they are having fun with the R rating. Using it in all sorts of ways.

Yeah, agree on the contrast between Bruce and Dick. But I was also referring to how the overall tone fits into the developing plot as well, with Rachel and her father, for example.

But yeah, I agree that they are making decent use of the R-rating so far. This show feels more in line with their R-rated animated stuff (which I generally tend to enjoy) rather than anything from the recent live-action movies.

Also, I lol'd at the bit in the latest episode with Kory and the headless bodies.

They got Jason Todd pretty much perfect.

Thought last episode was the weakest yet. Will be nice to see Dick as Nightwing from here on out though.

A crowbar-worthy performance.

I initially just found him kind of irritating, but that scene with the cops made me out and out dislike him. He crippled the one guy who was probably just trying to do his job. And then he uses the most horrible identity politics/collective guilt logic to justify his actions. Corrupt cops in Gotham beat you up? So what? That doesn't give you a license to maim any cop you see. Applying Todd's logic, those cops now have carte blanche to shoot any teens dressed up as superheroes first and ask questions later, based on what Todd did to them.

Exactly!

This series is now a solid 8/10 for me, and if they keep going like they are at the moment it might end up a 9, rivaling DD for my favourite superhero show. Solid casting, solid acting, good directing and great writing. Plus, the action scenes are excellent: Bone-breakingly brutal and bloody.

yeah cringe worthy but that is who Jason todd is isn't he from the comics? an unstable, has a vendetta, chip on the shoulder type? I do not agree with his actions at all just agreeing with dreampanther they got him pretty much perfect

No, not cringe-worthy. Crowbar-worthy. Which is my point. I agree. He's a good enough portrayal that he deserves the same treatment he got in the comics.

right on.

I came in with extremely low expectations, but I have to say that I'm actually enjoying this show. The edginess was cringey at first, but it's grown on me a bit.

^^ I think a lot of people are in that boat.

It's superb, far better than expected 8/10

Titans has consistently impressed me but this was one of the WORST choices for a season finale.

Yeah, no idea why they thought going the fake-visions/dream sequence type direction for a season finale was the way to go. Also didn't care for the way they used Batman. I know it had to do with the plot, but still. It ended up feeling more like a mid-season finale, which was an extremely underwhelming end for what is otherwise a very strong opening season IMO.

right I agree I didn't know at all it was a season finale... I guess its like breaking bad in the sense its basically the one continuous arc? in reference to the spoiler above ^^^ I guess they figured that would be enough by itself to make a splash but imo they should move away from the bigs all together

I loved the Season Finale tbh.

A lot of people felt it ended very abruptly and seemed almost incomplete . And I now know why.

https://screenrant.com/titans-season-finale-became-premiere/

Based on that, what ended up being the finale was essentially supposed to only be the first half of the finale. Which goes back to what I said about it feeling more like a mid-season finale. Like a bit of story was missing. Because it was.

Finally got around to binging this. The marketing did not do this show justice. It was great! Not DD, Punisher, or Legion level, but definitely beats out Gotham or any of the CW shows.

Jason Todd was the highlight IMO. Man, what a scene.

This was amazing.

While I still hold to the opinion that the costume designs and marketing for this were horrible, I found myself enjoying the series...even with the over the top edginess of it.

Just finished this. It's... A mixed bag. A poor adaptation in a lot of places, and yet decent in at least one or two others. Well-shot and acted in places, not in others. I'll give season two a chance, sure, but I'll keep my expectations in check.

maybe it was my lowered expectation due to the marvel shows and the CW shows. I'm not a big DC guy but I really enjoyed it it seems like most did as well. it can go either way now expectations have been set. as a show I liked it as a super hero show I liked it. plus the fact I didn't have to know a lot about the dc universe to jump in.

Saw epsiode 1 and barring Robin it was hilariously bad

I thought we learned a lot about Batman and thought he looked pretty bad ass. I get it was a dream thing, but im asssuming what we saw of him and learned about him is pretty close to the shows real world.

I just didn't care for the manner in which they used him in the episode, narrative-wise. I didn't feel like our first introduction to this version of the character should be a hallucination where he just went crazy and started murdering people. But eh, that's just me.

Well I never expected to get a full on - the real Batman is here now.

But I was watching it thinking, Damn why couldnt the movie versions be this cool.

Also appreciated that despite their dark and violent nature that the Bat people in this Universe still have a strict No Kill policy.

Unlike say Batfleck from the films, for whom we never really understood what code he had, and what lines he wont cross.

Unlike say Batfleck from the films, for whom we never really understood what code he had, and what lines he wont cross.

Well, I am glad some people liked it. It just wasn't really for me. Still going to tune in for s2, so doesn't make much difference anyway.

I'm pretty sure Dick killed at least a couple of people in the pilot, and I haven't seen anything in subsequent episodes to at least explain why they suddenly turned it around to "Batman doesn't approve of killing".

We were flat out told why Batfleck was the way he was.

Or am I misunderstanding you?

Hey fair enough. Just explaining why I liked it.

I would have to rewatch the pilot. I think he was just being really violent, like taking peoples eyes out, but from the finale Im guessing he would make sure none of those injuries would insta kill them.

Like what was his moral code? Where would he draw the line? I mean he was going to murder Superman right?

I honestly took that more to be them swerving hard during the season to try to make Dick look less like a psychopath. I mean, he fires a pistol in to a crowd at one point, and stabs at least a few of the bad guys.

Yeah, he was flat-out willing to kill people.

Okay, the end had me interested.

Decent poster as well, IMO:

Interesting to see how much fan goodwill helps. I recall the terrible Like to Dislike ratio the trailer for the first season had. And the show ended up being better than expected for a lot of people. And now there are quite a few people excited for s2.

Excited for this to return. However that trailer was badly put together IMO.

But yeah DS looked great at the end. At least well be getting him someplace after that post credit scene of Justice League has basically been binned.

Slade still deserved the big screen, but yeah, at least its something.

Tonight!

Not sold on Ser Friend of the Zone being Batman. He's concentrating so hard on trying to hide his accent that his dialogue delivery had very little weight to it IMO.

What annoyed me was that this episode would have been the perfect ending to Season 1. Great for people who only started watching the show now, but frustrating for me because suddenly I'm reminded of how stupid Season 1 ended.

It was originally supposed to be the S1 finale. The bits with Slade would have felt a bit out of place in a finale though. Those scenes felt more like something from a season opener.

Okay, that looks good.
