Remember when DC was all about love and hope and that sort of stuff? That was nice.
It really is like the Earth 3 Titans.So to wit we have.
Starfire - Who has amnesia, can't control her powers very well, and laughs as she burns people alive.
Raven - Generic goth teen who also can't control her powers.
Beast Boy - Teen who uses his powers to rob stores.
Robin - Exactly what was seen in the trailers.
If you were to strip all the Titans connections out it would be a perfectly serviceable, if generic, edgy superhero show.
If it's grim and dark and serious enough, it can inadvertently turn into an ouroboros of all things wrong with the modern DC cinematography.
I've seen it, and Rorschach seemed pretty on-point, although I ascribe most of that to the actor.that subpar, totally missing the point of the text, adaptation of Watchmen
Yet.
Snyder at least has a visual flair and an eye for dynamic fight scenes. This doesn't even have that and looks like someone trying to ape early 2000's action films.I finally watched the trailer...Did Snyder get regulated to the small screen?
You think the Starfire plot where she wakes up with amnesia, decides to dress up as a streetwalker, sleeps with a guy, and finally burns people alive while laughing, is the best one?I really enjoyed E1. Its dark, yes, but I think the actors are doing a good job, the show looks like it's going in a cool direction, and the I'm going to watch more. Ironically, despite all the shitting on it in advance, the Starfire plot is definitely the best one. I think a lot of people enjoy being contrary, and have already made their judgement, but it's worth watching. That said - just as with Young Justice, or the Gifted - it is its own take on the story its telling, and it should be judged on whether it executes that story well. Not on whether it's a point for point recreation of a forty year old comic book.
EDIT: Important question. In the show, Robin is a detroit detective. Could Robin beat Robocop?
I assume you know that that's not what happened, right? Like, those are events, but those aren't the order that events occurred, you're ignoring all the context to said events, and frankly you fall consistently in this category:You think the Starfire plot where she wakes up with amnesia, decides to dress up as a streetwalker, sleeps with a guy, and finally burns people alive while laughing, is the best one?

I feel the movie downplayed just how crazy Rorschach was, but the actors were pretty good in that movie despite my general hang ups I have with the film.I've seen it, and Rorschach seemed pretty on-point, although I ascribe most of that to the actor.
Okay then, here's the full context and timeline of Starfire's story so far.I assume you know that that's not what happened, right?
