Message: [QUOTE="miguk, post: 74326, member: 1510"] Teen Titans was... okay. Not bad, but if you're a comics fan, okay is the right word for it. They deserve credit for trying to adapt various characters and storylines from the comics within the limits of what Standards & Practices would allow in an at-times [I]somewhat[/I] accurate way. That said, it was clearly dumbed down for a more childish audience than what the comics had. I don't mean that as an insult; literally, they were going for an audience that would have more grade schoolers than the teen-to-YA audience of the comic series. Deathstroke was always called by his given name, Terra made it out much less scarred, Brother Blood is pretty mild for a cult leader, and so on. Meanwhile, everything is handled in a much jokier, anime-esque way, with the main cast being more cutesy, less sexy, less horny, and basically [I]Sailor Moon[/I] in DC drag. That's not to say it's a bad series; it clearly did something right. But as an adaptation, it's a bit off from the source material. At least it didn't have Damian Wayne like some of the later attempts, though. [/QUOTE]
