    DC is launching their owns streaming service with original content and past shows. I think its called DC Universe.

    REALLY!? the bar must have been low.

    I thought we got passed the ridiculousness of super heroes on screen. The Marvel Universe has proven you can go bat **** crazy and go all in with comic books themes and costumes on screen. I wish DC would just lighten up. Everything does not have to be so realistic when there is a green boy that changes into green animals as a part of the main cast.

    I'm going to watch it though, lol.

    Teen Titans Go! is a staple in my house. I'm interested. Don't mess it up, DC! (aw shucks)

    Not how I pictured starfire, but not bad. I think this has some real potential. Teen titans go is downright amazing, and even teen titans was great (for a whole host of different reasons). I'm excited.

    I’m personally not looking forward to all these companies releasing their own streaming services but I get it.

    They are not doing Raven justice with that actress. Also, I really, really, really feel that they're going to go for a Robin/Starfire romance and that is completely mind boggling to me since this Robin is Jason Todd....

    Can't wait for this. I am a huge DC fan and am so over Marvel's popcorn cookie cutter stories. I can't wait for this, and Joaquin Phoenix's Joker... the darker, the better.

    Are you sure? I’m pretty sure it’s Dick Grayson. They even showed a Flying Grayson flashback.

    I have read that Red Hood will eventually show up though.

    Maybe @Obito means he is acting like Jason Todd. Dick Grayson doesn't act like the Robin in the trailer. DC has a problem just sticking to the core of their characters.

    Exactly, he's acting like Jason Todd with the whole f*** Batman thing. Grayson had his problems with Bats, but he was probably the Robin that respected him the most. I may be wrong though, it might just be one liner or something but I doubt it.

    First impressions: it was not good at all. CGI effects looked super cheesy (even worse than DC on CW) and the acting was terrible, especially from the actress who portrays Raven.

    They didn't show Beast Boy turning into anything, and all they did was make Starfire glow. Would have been cool to include shots of Terra (if she's even in this), Slade (if he's even in this).

    Is this team going to be: Robin / Starfire / Raven / Dove / Beast Boy? It's unfortunate if Terra, Slade and Cyborg are all not included.

    Honestly, I feel like Titans is supposed to be a HUGE hook to get non-comic book people interested in DC's streaming service. This trailer did nothing to help business.

    Maybe they're retconning or trying to set up some sort of divide between Batman and Robin; something to drive the angst. Without that, and without the issue with Raven (who seems like a major storyline from the trailers), it might devolved into a villain-of-the-week procedural.

    Like Smallville, in its early days.

    its Dick Grayson and he will be transitioning to Nightwing during season 1. Jason Todd will be in an episode towards the end of the season and hes a killer so the storyline will be trying to stop him.

    The Episode titles have already snuck out onto the internet in recent months.

    1. Pilot
    2. Hawk and Dove
    3. Starfire
    4. Rachel
    5. The Doom Patrol ( This is a spinoff series as well)
    6. The Messenger
    7.Jason Todd
    8. Angela
    9.Donna Troy
    10. Hank and Dawn
    11. Koriand'r
    12 Dick Grayson
    13, Raven

    From what I am reading the story will kick off when Dick is fired by Batman as Robin and go from there, I think that will explain Robin being so pissed off and dropping the f bomb in the fight scene on the trailer.

    I mean, I didn't gather hate for Batman in that phrase, I thought he was basically saying he is at the same stage as Batman now. I mean, hell, that's why he becomes Nightwing, because he doesn't want to just be a sidekick. That's even a factor toward why the Teen Titans exist.

    Not having Cyborg is going to hurt. Also, it doesn't look like Tara plays a part either, and I thought she was a great character too. Also Slade! I'm glad Slade is going to be in TTGTM, he's a great villain if just for a goofy movie.
