TITANS Premiere Gives Hope For The Rest Of The Season

Watched the first 20 minutes before work earlier and was pleasantly surprised with it. Gonna finish it tonight and watch the second episode. Can’t wait to finish it. 👍

Would you say the app us worth the price? I am interested to watch Titans whether good or bad but not a fan of buying another subscription service on tip of the ones i have now.

6.5/10. It was fine. Potential to get better. Reminds me of when I used to watch the CW shows. Its basically that but darker. Its a little campy in tone, even the so called mature aspects. Although, I cant imagine I'll stick around if the camp gets mpre excessive. Actors are committed. There was more good than bad, enough to make me want to tune in again.

Probably going to watch this tomorrow. Hope for the best, but some of the dialogue seems to be a little meh from the trailers.

I'm gonna be blunt, this first episode was a flaming hot piece of trash. I'm not one to get won over just from excessive violence, and that's pretty much all this show has going for it in this first episode. The acting was god awful even compared to the CW shows, the writing was absolutely ham fisted and cringe, the blueish muted colors overwhelming every shot and every scene was lifeless and boring, the pacing was slow and dull, and the plot was unfocused and just lazy, felt like the first episode was fab fiction written in a day, and my god the worst offender was the complete bastardization of these beloved characters.

Only good things in the show was the actress who played Starfire. While she didnt get a chance to actually play Starfire but rather a completely new character with a somewhat similar power set, the character she was playing I actually enjoyed how she played it, though the story and scenes she was in were painfully stupid and completely not a Starfire story arc. I'm sorry, when she murdered that dude after the fight scene in the hotel my heart checked out of this show completely. By the time she burned those 3 mobsters alive I was about to turn this trash off. But she as an actress did a good job, but she 100% isnt Starfire.

Then the only other positive I can say is the cgi was pretty impressive.

This show is boring, uninspired, pointlessly dark and violent just for the sake of it, poorly written, tragically misguided, souless, cringey schlock. And when a bad movie like Punisher War Zone does excessive violence better, then you just missed on all fronts.

Granted this is just the first episode and every show takes a few episodes or seasons to pick up steam and gel and find what works for them, it's going to be a struggle for me to convince myself to even check out episode 2.

I give this first episode a pitiful 3/10.

When it comes to TITANS episode 1, I just dont give a Fleck.

I'm about to watch it in a moment. But I've been hearing good things all day from friends who saw it.

I thought it was supposed to be on Netflix?... I’m looking and i don’t see it..

OK so I really hope that this "Starfire" is just undercover in a human disguise or something because if not, I'd find it very hard to believe that this is indeed Starfire, the alien from another planet, because what the hEcK. Like she's almost to Fant4stic levels where the story would've worked if it were a completely new character/property. (Yes I had to bring back Fan4stic)

Some dialogue is indeed cringe worthy but it's whatever, Raven's actress ain't too good but the rest of the acting is alright (The bus scene with Raven is terrible omg "SLUT!" lmaoo, Dick's actor is a tad bit bland but I have a suspicion that he opens up once the rest of the team comes into play. Starfire's actress does a good job tho.

the violence really is over done. Dick Grayson doesn't shoot anyone but he STABS two people in the neck..I was willing to buy that he's an angry young man trying to set his own path away from Batman but finds himself seeing traits of Bats within himself--BUT seeing that fight scene in all it's entirety was really pushing it. Starfire kills a dude for no reason too which took me off guard.

One more thing that's weird to me is the portrayal of the powers, Ravens is strange and undefined, "She's weird" Like Maria Hill said. And the version of Starfire that I know best are the animated versions where she shoots green bolts instead of actual fire, give me a second while I go google how it looks in the comics---I'm back, and i've learned that how her powers look is really just based on the artist but they are more energy blasts then actual fireballs as seen on the show when she burns 3 people alive :/ (She also laughs to herself after burning these people that she can't even remember...)

They better do some INTENSE positive character building for all of them or I think i'm gonna have to join @Nomis and burn this show alive :/

But on the real, I feel if this show doesn't find it's footing and delivers a lack luster, dark and gloomy, heartless first season, not unlike BVS, DC will can it due to the negative press
