Live Action Teen Titans series - Page 2

Hmm, kind of interested in this. I definitely want to see how Beast Boy will look for sure. Not sure if I'll check this out or not, but I might.

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 09-13-2014, 08:32 AM

Hmm. I guess DC realizes their movies aren't as good as Marvel's, so they're trying to take over television instead (Gotham, Supergirl, Arrow, Flash, and now this).

Eh c'mon, Teen Titans GO ain't that bad. At least it's clear on being a parody (unlike let's say Ultimate Spider-Man) and it's not like the Teen Titans cartoon from ten years ago didn't have huge problems.

Yeah, I always see people say this about Teen Titans Go. It's purposely bad and not comparable. It's an overthetop parody of itself. It's not for me (although the ep with Robin getting his license was great, imo), but for those who like that kind of humor, more power to them.

Welp the roster has been revealed and.... NO BEAST BOY?! WTH?!

So the roster is:
Dick Greyson/Robin/Nightwing
Barbara Gordon/Oracle (only she's not being called Oracle...but she's still wheelchair bound)
Raven/Rachel Roth
Starfire
Hawk/Hank Hall
Dove/Dawn Granger

Their HQ will be...Boston?!

Yes it's nice that the team mostly consists of females but it'll be weird without Beast Boy. Now to await the casting (really curious as to who'll be cast as Barbara and Raven)

I guess it's because Beast Boy would be difficult to do. Either you use CGI or use real elephants and rhinos and whatnot. Either one is expensive.

*CyberCubed* · 02-02-2015, 02:30 PM

I wonder if the lack of Beast Boy is because nobody wants to put green paint all over their face.

Also where the hell is Cyborg?

Alan Cumming put on make up for Nightcrawler in X-Men 2. Dave Bautista did the same thing for Guardians of the Galaxy, so the only plausible reason would be for the special effects.

*TurtleTitan97* · 02-02-2015, 03:24 PM

While it will be weird to see a Titans line-up without Beast Boy or Cyborg, I'm not surprised they won't appear. It would be expensive to make realistic CGI animals with a television show budget. And because of the New 52, Cyborg's now seen as a founding member of the Justice League.

Overall, still can't wait for this series.

Cyborg probably can't be used because he's a leaguer now. He's popping up in Superman v Batman and getting his own movie.

*ssjup81* · 02-02-2015, 05:37 PM

So no Beast Boy or Cyborg? Which version of Teen Titans is this based on anyway? With Rachel/Raven there and Starfire, I figured it was going to loosely be based on the New Teen Titans. Speaking of which, shouldn't Kid Flash be a part of this too?

Meh...this is one gear grind I have about DC...too many changes and retcons.

It's not really based on a specific version. Barbara was never a member of the Titans, and neither was the Hank Hall version of Hawk. Dove/Dawn Granger, however, was a brief member of the Titans in the past.

As for Kid Flash, I doubt will see him in the show. Considering the fact that the producers of the CW "Flash" series have stated in the past that the plan to somehow bring Wally into the show, as well as the fact that it's on a different network, the chances of seeing him are looking pretty slim.

TNT is a sister station of the CW so crossovers can very easily occur.

Weird roster. Hawk and Dove were barely Titans. And Babs never was. She's just gonna be there for "romantic angst" between her, Dick, and Starfire. Great, just what we need, more love triangle stuff.

Whatever, I'll give it a shot. Finally seeing a live-action Nightwing should be pretty cool.

Didn't we pretty much already see that with the Batman and Robin movie? I mean, it was just a different version of his Nightwing suit with red instead of blue....

No idea what you're talking about. No such movie exists.

*CyberCubed* · 02-03-2015, 01:49 AM

All these live-action DC shows are making my head spin. They all rub me the wrong way dating back to Smallville. Gotham, Flash, Green Arrow, and now this?

I watched the first couple of episodes of each series and then I always lose interest. I don't know what it is, I can watch DC cartoons just fine unless they're too childish, but the live-action bores me to the point of tears.

Look, if you wanna block it out, that's fine, but some of us still have to face the reality that it was made.....

Maybe, but I doubt it.
