"Batman: The Animated Series" wound up being as definitive an account of the Dark Knight as its title suggested. So when a new Batman cartoon finally came afterwards, it was destined to never escape the shadow of "Btas." But "The Batman" (which aired from 2004 to 2008) made a noble effort and remains one of the more unique spins on the Caped Crusader.

"The Batman," developed by Michael Goguen and Duane Capizzi, was the first animated Batman in 12 years that was unconnected to the DC Animated Universe (The shared setting that began with "Batman: The Animated Series" and concluded with "Justice League Unlimited").

Bruce Wayne in "The Batman" was voiced by Rino Romano, and Joker by Kevin Michael Richardson, rather than the beloved Kevin Conroy as Batman and Mark Hamill as the Joker duo. Bruce Timm modeled "Batman: The Animated Series" on the Fleischer Studios Superman cartoons, while Jeff Matsuda gave Gotham City an anime makeover.

The long-running animated cartoon series "Adventure Time" really was a show like no other, exploring the magical post-apocalyptic world of Ooo with Finn (Jeremy Shada) and Jake (Joe Dimaggio), a human boy and shapeshifting dog. It's an epic, sprawling story with an incredible voice cast that help to bring all of the colorful and unique characters to life, and that means there's some crossover with other popular movies and TV shows — heck, Dimaggio's voice is incredibly well-known in the animation world as the heavy-drinking bending robot Bender on "Futurama." But there's one connection people might not realize, and it's a pretty fun one!

It turns out that there's a musical link between the 2003 Richard Curtis romantic Christmas comedy "Love Actually" and "Adventure Time," courtesy of the movie's best musical moment and one of the show's best musical characters. "Love Actually" might not be everyone's favorite Christmas movie (and some of...

With Teen Titans finally set to get the big screen treatment, it’s only right to assume that the upcoming film will take a page out of the 2003 show. Released during the peak of the Dcau on Cartoon Network, Teen Titans would eventually transcend the medium, becoming the best-animated show to ever hit the network.

And while fans will hope the upcoming live-action adaptation will take major inspiration from the show, its influences shouldn’t be limited to this adaptation alone. Considering the animation department is set to be a major driving force for the new universe, James Gunn and co. have the perfect template in Teen Titans to push the medium to new heights.

Dcu Should Take a Page Out of Teen Titans’ Production

Teen Titans | Cartoon Network

Since its debut in 2003, Teen Titans has remained one of the best parts of the Dcau, which is saying a lot.

Max has renewed “Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake” for a second season.

A spinoff of “Adventure Time,” which ran on Cartoon Network from 2010 to 2018, the series follows Fionna (Madeleine Martin) and her sidekick, Cake (Roz Ryan), who find themselves in the crosshairs of a powerful new foe, leaving them with no choice but to seek the help of Simon Petrikov, the former Ice King (Tom Kenny). Other characters from from the original series featured in “Fionna and Cake” include Marshall Lee (Donald Glover), Marceline the Vampire Queen (Olivia Olson), Princess Bubblegum (Hynden Walch) and Finn the Human (Jeremy Shada). The cast also includes Andrew Rannells as Gary Prince, Sean Rohani as Prismo and Kayleigh McKee as the Scarab.

The news comes two months after showrunner Adam Muto told Variety he was unsure whether the show would continue, saying, “It’s in discussion. But the person who greenlit the first season is no longer at Max.

In the upcoming Season 8 episode of “Teen Titans Go!” titled “Warner Bros 100th Anniversary,” something unexpected happens during the Titans’ management of the 100th anniversary party for Warner Bros on the studio lot. The episode is scheduled to air at 9:30 Am on Saturday, September 23, 2023, on Cartoon Network.

During the celebration, an important item, the magical WB Shield, gets broken into pieces. This unexpected turn of events could pose a challenge for the Titans as they try to keep the anniversary party running smoothly.

Viewers can expect to see how the Titans handle this situation and whether they can find a solution to fix the broken magical shield. It’s a special episode that celebrates the long history of Warner Bros and adds a twist to the party preparations.

Don’t forget to tune in and join the Titans as they navigate this unexpected twist in “Teen Titans Go!” on Cartoon Network.

A legend is no longer with us, for Arleen Sorkin has died at the age of 67. The news was first reported by voice actor Neil Kaplan and later confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter. She is survived by her husband and their two sons. DC Studios co-ceo James Gunn shared a tribute to Sorkin on Instagram, and her old friend and co-star Mark Hamill wrote: "Not just a wonderful talent, but a truly wonderful person. I'm grateful not only to have worked with her, but to have been her friend."

Mrs. Sorkin is most remembered for being the original voice of the DC Comics character Harley Quinn. She played the part across 17 years, beginning in "Batman: The Animated Series" in 1992 and for the last time in the 2009 video game, "Batman: Arkham Asylum." We'll talk about this part of her legacy soon, but first, let's be clear — Sorkin was not a one-trick pony.

Robin, Starfire, Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy are gearing up for new adventures. The Teen Titans Go! TV series kicked off its seventh season last month and now, it's already been renewed for an eighth season by Cartoon Network. The long-running animated show about a team of young superheroes will reach its 400th episode in season eight.

In addition, the Titans will team up with characters from the DC Super Hero Girls series to battle with Lex Luthor and his Legion of Doom in a crossover movie. The voice cast includes Kimberly Brooks, Greg Cipes, Keith Ferguson, Will Friedle, Grey Griffin, Phil Lamarr, Scott Menville, Max Mittleman, Jessica McKenna, Khary Payton, Alexander Polinsky, Missi Pyle, Tara Strong, Nicole Sullivan, Cree Summer, Fred Tatasciore, Myrna Velasco, Kari Wahlgren, and Hynden Walch.

, 2022. Fans can also catch the movie event on Cartoon Network premiering Saturday, May 28 and then on HBO Max beginning June 28.

Also announced today, Cartoon Network has picked up another season of Teen Titans Go! from Warner Bros. Animation. Season eight will premiere...

Teen Titans Go! will be back for more action as Cartoon Network said Monday that it has renewed the animated series for Season 8.

Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Beast Boy and Raven continue the fun with all-new comedic adventures, giving viewers a look at what life is really like as a teen super hero … once the cape comes off. Inspired by and featuring the principal voice cast of the original Teen Titans series, the character-driven comedy based on DC characters focuses on the funny that happens in between saving the world and living together as teenagers without adult supervision.

With epic staring contests to decide who does the laundry, a series of quests and battles to construct the perfect sandwich or fighting crime in Jump City, one thing is for sure — these Titans are always ready for an adventure, inside the house and out.

Season 8 will debut later this year with more...

Burbank, CA – The early years of the Caped Crusader get a closer examination as Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (Wbhe) brings the fully-remastered The Batman: The Complete Series to Blu-ray for the very first time. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC, the 65-episode box set will be distributed February 1, 2022 by Wbhe on Blu-ray+Digital ($69.99 Srp) in the United States, and a Blu-ray only package ($79.98 Srp) in Canada.

The six-time Emmyâ Award-winning series premiered on September 11, 2004 on Kids’ WB before eventually shifting to Cartoon Network for subsequent seasons. The Batman: The Complete Series follows 20-something-year-old Bruce Wayne’s early adventures as he balances his daytime persona as a bachelor billionaire with his nighttime guise as a caped crimefighter. Along the way, Batman is joined by allies Robin and Batgirl as they combat Gotham City’s Rogues’ Gallery, including updated versions of his familiar foes as well as a bevy of rarely...

A good audiobook narrator becomes a collaborator in the storytelling process, which is why which voice actor reads a novel can be so important. The stakes become even higher when it is a much-anticipated title, such as Victories Greater Than Death, the YA debut for Charlie Jane Anders, who is one of our favorite active writers of speculative fiction.

Victories Greater Than Death is a young adult space fantasy set against the backdrop of an intergalactic war, and it’s set to drop in both print and audiobook formats on April 13th. Such an auspicious debut deserves an audiobook narrator to do the story justice, and Macmillan seems to have found that person in the very talented Hynden Walch, whose voice you may recognize from her voice work as Princess Bubblegum in Adventure Time, and Starfire in both Teen Titans and Teen Titans Go! Walch will act as the narrator...

Burbank, CA – The World’s Greatest Super Heroes square off once-and-for-all against the despotic Darkseid – with the fate of all humanity hanging in the balance – in Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, the next entry in the popular series of DC Universe Movies. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC, the feature-length animated film will be released by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on Digital starting May 5, 2020, and on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack and Blu-ray Combo Pack on May 19, 2020.

Justice League Dark: Apokolips War will be accompanied by the all-new DC Showcase animated short, Adam Strange. The thrilling tale, which offers insight into the space adventurer’s fascinating backstory, features Charlie Weber (How To Get Away with Murder) as the voice of title character.

Justice League Dark: Apokolips War will be available on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack (USA $39.99 Srp; Canada $44.98 Srp) and Blu-ray Combo Pack (USA $24.98 Srp; Canada $29.98 Srp) as well as on Digital.

The Teen Titans have proven remarkably flexible since their mid-1960s debut as a collection of sidekicks. They appealed to the young readers with Bob Haney’s laughable “hip” language and as the readership grew up, so too did the members of the team, addressing adult issues with changing times and tastes.

They were propelled from mid-list to top-seller status by the Marv Wolfman and George Pérez run starting in summer 1980. These were teens on the verge of adulthood and had problems and issues that the college-age readership were drawn to. The blend of supernatural, science fiction, and super-heroics meant the stories could, and did, go anywhere.

In 2003, things went full-circle as the more mature incarnation was youthified for younger viewers as the Teen Titans hit the Cartoon Network in a five-season run. This success led to the even younger Teen Titans Go! so all the characters and their conflicts...

Burbank, CA – A new generation of heroes joins the Young Justice team just as they face their greatest challenge yet in Young Justice: Outsiders – The Complete Third Season. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC, the DC Universe Original Series’ enthralling third season arrives from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on Digital starting September 24, 2019 and DVD ($24.98 Srp) on November 26, 2019. The DVD order due date is October 22, 2019.

Young Justice: Outsiders – The Complete Third Season will be available on Blu-rayTM courtesy of Warner Archive Collection. The Blu-rayTM release includes all 26 episodes on the DVD and is also arriving November 26, 2019. Warner Archive Blu-ray releases are found at wb.com/warnerarchive and your favorite online retailer.

In Young Justice: Outsiders – The Complete Third Season, our heroes have survived the schemes of the Light and saved the Earth from the Reach Invasion – but the worst has yet to come. Now someone is kidnapping teens and transforming them into super-powered weapons!

The Hush storyline by Jeph Loeb, Jim Lee, and Scott Williams was a smash sales success because it safely followed the Loeb formula of a 12-issue mystery that enveloped every major member of the rogues’ gallery. First, there was the Holiday killed and the making of Two-Face and here we have the new threat of Hush which connects to young Bruce Wayne’s childhood.

To fit this into the connected Animated Universe, Batman: Hush, out now from Warner Home Entertainment, a host of changes had to be made. The one that did not need alteration is the one that entirely spoils the final third of the 82-minute film.

I’ve not been fond of veteran animation writer Ernie Altbacker’s previous forays into the Dcau, but this contains some of his finest moments. Coupled with above-average source material and fine character designs, this is one of the stronger-looking films in a while.

When it comes to Batman: Hush, you could say I’ve waited years for it to be adapted to a movie – because I have. It goes without saying that every fan of the Caped Crusader who reads comics has a favorite storyline to call their own, and mine is the classic written by Jeph Loeb and illustrated by Jim Lee. Finally, the talented folks developing these DC animated films were given the green light to bring it to life.

If I had to say why I loved the comic so much, it’s probably because it was a riveting mystery that simultaneously functioned as an entry level story you could hand to anybody in order to school them on Batman’s world. Pretty much all of his top-tier supporting characters and villains were present, so it was kind of an encyclopedia with a narrative. Plus, it took the Batman-Catwoman romance to the next level,...

Take a look at new footage, plus images from the animated "Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans", as the comedic modern-day quintet takes on their 2003 counterparts when villains from each of their worlds join forces to pit the two 'Titan' teams against each other:

Cast includes Greg Cipes as 'Beast Boy', Scott Menville as 'Robin', Khary Payton as 'Cyborg', Tara Strong as 'Raven', Hynden Walch as 'Starfire'...

...Kevin Michael Richardson as 'Trigon/Hexagon', Robert Morse as 'Santa Claus', Grey Griffin as 'Mrs. Claus', Rhys Darby as 'Master of Games'...

...Sean Maher as 'Nightwing', and "Weird Al" Yankovic as 'Gentleman Ghost'/'Darkseid'.

Though I’ll always remain a Justice League Unlimited guy first and foremost, I’ll admit that I do like seeing DC’s younger heroes getting a chance to shine. Whether it be Young Justice or DC Super Hero Girls, we’ve seen drastically different productions meeting the needs of audiences in recent years, with each filling an important niche.

Actually, I’d be remiss if not mentioning Teen Titans and Teen Titans Go!, two series featuring the same cast which happen to be radically dissimilar in tone. Of course, there is some overlap on the Venn diagram when it comes to viewership, but there remain fans of the original series who simply don’t dig the current iteration.

Believe it or not, universes are soon set to collide in the ambitious Teen Titans Go! vs Teen Titans, which has now had the curtain pulled back on it. If you...

Nightmare Monkeys is the craziest thing Young Justice ever put on television.

This Young Justice: Outsiders review contains spoilers.

Young Justice Outsiders Episode 12

"Nightmare Monkeys" is Young Justice at its best: a deep dive into a character and the show's mythology. It's also Young Justice: Outsiders at its best: a show that is doing a bunch of crazy shit that it would never get away with on broadcast or cable tv. If Yj was still on Cartoon Network, they would have been canceled the second the showrunners put the words "Doom Patrol Go!" on paper.

Beast Boy is a surprisingly integral character to Young Justice: Outsiders. He showed up late in the first season and wound up as Miss Martian's semi-brother (it's complicated) by the end of the episode. Then he came back as a semi-regular character in season two, developing his powers and being a solid all around character.

The first-ever big-screen version of DC Entertainment and Cartoon Network...

I will admit that I skipped Teen Titans Go! since I was far beyond their target audience, I was happy to see a scaled down, entry-level animated series succeed so well on cable. It honored its Marv Wolfman/George Pérez roots and had a nice run. What I never expected was to see it make the leap to the big screen and succeed as well as it did.

Back in the spring, Teen Titans Go! To the Movies was among the least anticipated summer films by theater owners at Movie Con but then arrived to superlative reviews (91% fresh at Rotten Tomatoes) and stronger than anticipated box office with $51.8 million earned worldwide against a $10 million budget.

On the five season series, the young heroes were seen having ordinary every day adventures, focusing more on pizza than the Fearsome Five. One recurring theme seems to be that the adult heroes looked down...

It seems to the Teens that all the major superheroes out there are starring in their own movies-everyone but the Teen Titans, that is. But de facto leader Robin is determined to remedy the situation, and be seen as a star instead of a sidekick. If only they could get the hottest Hollywood film director to notice them. With a few madcap ideas and a song in their heart, the Teen Titans head to Tinsel Town, certain to pull off their dream. But when the group is radically misdirected by a seriously super villain and his maniacal plan to take over the Earth, things really go awry.

You may be forgiven for not being wildly excited about the release of Teen Titans Go! to the Movies. Unless you are in possession of small children and/or quirky taste in toons, the big screen debut of the small screen super friends is unlikely to have had much impact at all. So you may be forgiven. But you would also be totally Wrong.

Make haste to your television sets and get familiar with the Titans, fast, before you lose the right to brag: I was totally into Teen Titans before they made it big!

Robin, Beast Boy, Starfire, Cyclops and Raven are the only ones who can save Jump City from the air powered assault of Balloon Man.

Tom Cruise has pulled off one of his most successful missions yet.

Paramount’s “Mission: Impossible – Fallout” launched with $61.5 million when it opened in 4,386 locations, marking a franchise-best debut. That title was previously held by “Mission: Impossible II” with $57.8 million. The last iteration, “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation,” bowed with $55.5 million. The biggest debut for a Cruise film still belongs to “War of the Worlds” ($64.8 million).

Nevertheless, “Fallout” signals a return to form for Cruise, whose last few box office offerings had less than stellar theatrical runs. “American Made” fared best of recent offerings, while Cruise’s reboot of “The Mummy” and “Jack Reacher: Never Go Back” suffered from high production costs and bleak reviews.

Overseas, “Fallout” brought in $92 million, premiering in 36 international markets. Imax accounted for $12.5 million of its $153.5 million global opening. “Fallout” opens in China on Aug. 31.

“With an opening like this, we’re going to play well throughout the summer,...

Chicago – If a good laugh is golden, then “Teen Titans Go! To the Movies” is worth its weight. Although the meta-make-fun of superhero movies have already been done almost to death (Deadpool?), the Titans have been doing it on the Cartoon Network since 2013, and take it to a new level in their movie adventure.

Rating: 4.0/5.0

And the brilliance of the adventure lies in simply making fun of all the costumed characters that movie-goers now see every couple of months. The Titans want to get into the movie world, especially their leader Robin the Boy Wonder, and they generally wreak havoc upon the makers of these particularly strange films, The story, like the cartoon, is frenetically paced, and features all the main cast in their voice roles, along with Nicolas Cage, Jimmy Kimmel, James Corden, Patton Oswalt, Will Arnett and Kristen Bell taking on characters in this DC comics universe. If...

Tom Cruise’s mission, should he choose to accept it, is to steal the box office crown.

Paramount’s “Mission: Impossible – Fallout” looks to easily win the weekend, where the franchise’s sixth installment is eyeing a North American debut between $50 million and $65 million.

Stellar reviews could help “Fallout” land a series-best domestic launch. That title currently belongs to “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation,” which opened with $55.5 million in 2015. The highest-grossing iteration is “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” ($694.7 million), followed by “Rogue Nation” ($682.7 million), and Mission: Impossible 2″ ($546.4 million). Combined, the series has earned over $2.7 billion globally.

Due to production delays stemming from Cruise breaking his foot on set, “Fallout” is by far the most expensive film in the series with a $178 million price tag. The studio is hoping for an overseas boost when the movie opens this weekend in 36 international markets, including the United Kingdom, Russia, and Spain. It doesn’t bow in Japan until August,...

Picture this: a popular 1980s comic by Marv Wolfman and George Pérez called The New Teen Titans puts a bunch of sidekicks together to fight one of their rank’s evil father. After a sixteen-year run come new titles to continue the legacy in print with differing line-ups before Cartoon Network developed the property into a television series from Glen Murakami entitled Teen Titans. This thing becomes a huge winner for Cn with rabid fans and critical acclaim before moving past a planned four-season arc into a fifth with the feature Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo serving as a finale. Did WB cancel it? Did Cartoon Network? Was it a matter of Bandai owning toy rights for the show despite Mattel signing exclusivity with the station? Who knows?

Some say the end was the product of the cartoon doing too well with young girls — something logic would call a good...

I should confess from the jump that I’m a big fan of superhero self-parody: from “Not Brand Ecch!” and “What the–?” to “Ambush Bug” and “World’s Funnest,” watching the big publishers make fun of themselves has led to some of my very favorite comics over the years.

That same reckless sense of mocking the (Bat)man in the mirror is alive and well in “Teen Titans Go! to the Movies,” a big-screen adaptation of the popular Cartoon Network series in which the titular adolescents do everything they can to make it — where else? — onto the big screen.

Unfortunately for Robin (voiced by Scott Menville), he and his teammates — alien warrior Starfire (Hynden Walch), shape-shifter Beast Boy (Greg Cipes), goth-girl mage Raven (Tara Strong), and human-android hybrid Cyborg (Khary Payton) — are the laughing-stocks of the superhero world, since this team is more interested in waffles and musical numbers than in actual heroics.

For anyone who thinks superhero movies take themselves just a little too seriously, Teen Titans Go! To the Movies is refreshingly irreverent, and family friendly too. Even if you haven’t seen the Cartoon Network animated series, you surely recognize Batman’s sidekick Robin (Scott Menville). He leads a group of super friends including Raven (Tara Strong), Cyborg (Khary Payton), Beast Boy (Greg Cipes) and Starfire (Hynden Walch). Even in the world of superheroes there are too many superhero movies, and there are some hilariously serious trailers to absurd Batman movie spinoffs. Robin feels left out and sets out to get a […]

Are you read to say goodbye to Adventure Time? Today, Cartoon Network released the premiere date and clips from the TV show's series finale.

Created by Pendleton Ward, the animated series follows the adventures of a boy named Finn and his dog, Jake. The voice cast includes Jeremy Shada, John Dimaggio, Hynden Walch, and Niki Yang. Earlier this year, Cartoon Network announced the show will end in 2018 after 10 seasons.

Collectively, they are known as the Teen Titans. Individually, they are known as Starfire (voice: Hynden Walch), Robin (voice: Scott Menville), Beast Boy (voice: Greg Cipes), Cyborg (voice: Khary Payton) and Raven (voice: Tara Strong).

When we think of the quintessential villains to have been a thorn in the side of DC’s more prominent adolescent heroes, it’s only understandable that Deathstroke be among the first that come to mind. Thus, it makes sense that he show up in some capacity in this summer’s animated feature Teen Titans Go! To The Movies.

When it comes to this particular iteration of Deathstroke, he’ll be voiced by none other than Will Arnett and lately, he’s been engaging in a friendly social media war with none other than Deadpool‘s Ryan Reynolds. Long story short, it has everything to do with them sharing visual similarities – even if Slade Wilson arrived on the scene long before Wade Wilson.

Believe it or not, the confusion between the two spills over into the film itself, with the Teen Titans actually adamantly referring to Deathstroke as “Deadpool” upon meeting him.

We've got another amusing TV spot for you to watch for DC Entertainment's upcoming animated film Teen Titans Go! To The Movies. It's called "So Many Heroes" and it features a good amount of footage that fans who are excited about the movie are going to enjoy. There's one part in particular that involves Batman and a joke about how there is no stopping him. This movie just looks like it's going to be an enjoyable good time. I'm looking forward to checking it out!

When we think of the quintessential villains to have been a thorn in the side of DC’s more prominent adolescent heroes, it’s only understandable that Deathstroke be among the first that come to mind. Thus, it makes sense that he show up in some capacity in this summer’s animated feature Teen Titans Go! To The Movies.

Normally, that slot’s been reserved for Ron Perlman, whom we know to have voiced the character in the TV series that gave way to the big screen sibling. But in a way not dissimilar to how the studio acquired a bigger name to voice Superman such as Nicolas Cage, some recasting was apparently in order here.

When it comes to this particular iteration of Deathstroke, he’ll be voiced by none other than Will Arnett and lately, he’s been engaging in a friendly social media war with none other than Deadpool‘s Ryan Reynolds.

Deadpool aka Wade Wilson aka the Merc with a Mouth is currently tearing it up at the box office – much to the surprise of no one – as in just a few years, the anti-hero has become a true A-lister. This is all much to the annoyance of Deathstroke aka Slade Wilson – who Deadpool’s completely ripped off from, by the way – and he’s been laying out his frustrations in various promo material for Teen Titans Go! To The Movies – the latest of which arrived just the other week.

But first, let’s rewind a bit. For those who don’t know, the two characters’ similarities actually stretch back all the way to Dp’s birth in 1990. Creators Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld decided that they were going to introduce a superpowered sword and gun-wielding assassin in their New Mutants comic, but when the latter put together the first drawings,...

When we think of the quintessential villains to have been a thorn in the side of DC’s more prominent adolescent heroes, it’s only understandable that Deathstroke be one of the first that come to mind. As such, it makes perfect sense that he show up in some capacity in this summer’s animated feature Teen Titans Go! To The Movies, right?

Usually, that slot’s been reserved for Ron Perlman, whom we know to have voiced the character in the TV series which paved the way for its big screen sibling. But in a way not dissimilar to how the studio acquired a bigger name to voice Superman in the form of Nicolas Cage, some recasting was apparently in order here.

When it comes to this particular iteration of Deathstroke, he’ll be voiced by none other than Will Arnett, who you can see in the new featurette...

Despite the original Teen Titans animated series that ran from 2003-2006 not having been my cup of tea, I can’t deny how beloved it was. For many DC fans, it likely served as their gateway to these adolescent heroes and probably remains the definitive iteration in their minds.

But when it came to the followup, Teen Titans Go!, which launched a few years back, well, that go-round has proven to be quite divisive. I mean, it’s found much success after having endured for multiple seasons, but a percentage of viewers yearn for a return to adventures featuring antagonists and real stakes, as opposed to the team singing about burritos or waffles.

Interestingly enough, a couple members of the cast said that should next month’s theatrical release of Teen Titans Go! To The Movies actually perform well financially, then the show that started it all could very well return for a sixth season!

Warner Bros. has released a fun new behind-the-scenes featurette for Teen Titans Go! to the Movies. It gives us a sneak peek at the voice cast bringing the characters they play to life and they also talk about what fans can expect from the film.

I'll admit when I first heard about this movie I couldn't care less about it. But now, I'm actually kind of excited about seeing it. It just looks like a silly fun flick that DC fans will laugh at and appreciate.

When the Teen Titans go to the big screen, they go big! Teen Titans Go! to the Movies finds our egocentric, wildly satirical Super Heroes in their first feature film extravaganza—a fresh, gleefully clever, kid-appropriately crass and tongue-in-cheek play on the superhero genre, complete with musical numbers. It seems to the Teens that all the major superheroes out there are starring in their...

Marvel’s Deadpool aka Wade Wilson aka the Merc with a Mouth is currently in the process of tearing it up at the box office, as in just a few years, the anti-hero has become a true A-list superhero. This is all much to the annoyance of Deathstroke aka Slade Wilson – who Deadpool is completely ripped off from – and he’s been laying out his frustrations in various promo material for Teen Titans Go! To The Movies – the latest of which arrived the other week.

But first, some history. For those who don’t know, the two characters’ similarities date back to the moment of Dp’s birth in 1990. Creators Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld had decided that they were going to introduce a superpowered sword and gun-wielding assassin in their New Mutants comic, but when Liefeld delivered the first drawings, Nicieza immediately responded, “This is Deathstroke. From the Teen Titans.

If anything, Teen Titans Go! To The Movies is shaping up to have the most bizarrely atypical cast for a DC animated film this side of The Lego Batman Movie. Well, that’s aside from those voicing the titular adolescent heroes whom we’ll list off a bit later.

For now, let’s discuss those Justice Leaguers who’ll be putting in appearances, shall we?

Already, we’ve known that Nicolas Cage will be voicing Superman, just as Lil Yachty and Halsey will do for Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, respectively. Still, you had to figure that with those heavy hitters showing up, the studio surely wouldn’t pass up including its top moneymaker, right?

Originally, we suspected that Will Arnett would again lend his pipes to Batman, but we recently learned that he will, in fact, be playing Slade Wilson instead. With that out of the way, we’re...

DC, and specifically Teen Titans fans, worldwide lost there damn minds a short while ago when we discovered we were finally getting a Teen Titans Go! movie. Its no secret that the TV show has been lauded and praised by fans for years and WB/DC finally decided to pull the trigger on an animated movie. Yippppeeee! Well Warner Bros have released a deliciously glorious trailer and a sexy poster for us to feast our eyeballs on, check them out below!

Full disclosure… I have watched this trailer a bunch of times and think they have transferred everything I loved about the series onto the big screen flawlessly. It is Bright and Bold and it genuinely looks crazy funny in a way that I personally thought the Lego Batman movie missed the mark. I love the fact that DC are also poking a little bit of fun at themselves and...

When the Teen Titans go to the big screen, they go big! “Teen Titans Go! to the Movies” finds our egocentric, wildly satirical Super Heroes in their first feature film extravaganza—a fresh, gleefully clever, kid-appropriately crass and tongue-in-cheek play on the super hero genre, complete with musical numbers.

It seems to the Teens that all the major super heroes out there are starring in their own movies—everyone but the Teen Titans, that is! But de facto leader Robin is determined to remedy the situation, and be seen as a star instead of a sidekick. If only they could get the hottest Hollywood film director to notice them. With a few madcap ideas and a song in their heart, the Teen Titans head to Tinsel Town,...

If the fourth-wall breaking meta-humour of Deadpool 2 is a little too R-rated for you, well then, Teen Titans Go! To The Movies has your back. The upcoming animated feature, based upon the Teen Titans Go! TV series, will find Robin (Scott Menville), Raven (Tara Strong), Cyborg (Khary Payton), Starfire (Hynden Walch), and Beast Boy (Greg Cipes) discovering that all of DC's other superheros (even...
