I’m fairly casual on the whole show, but the movie does look pretty good

I honestly don't care for the original series nor much for Go either but from what I've seen, Go actually has some decent moments like the episode they get serious. I'd imagine people wouldn't hate it nearly as much if it didn't air as frequently as it does.
 
Said it before, I'll say it again...

Teen Titans Go! is not really all that bad and can sometimes be legit funny - but it's nothing to lose sleep over, let alone get that angry at. Still, always makes me happy to know people do like it / find it just hit-and-miss, but still watchable enough, unironically.

All that said, I'm not terribly interested in this movie for it due out soon, but kudos to anyone who's up to watchin' it for the sake of doing so (and maybe telling us what it's like.).
 
I'd argue one of three things as to why TTG is so hated by cartoonfags/fans of the original TT:

- They only saw 2-3 episodes tops, one of those being the episode where Cyborg and Beast Boy sing about waffles for the whole runtime.
- The overabundance of the show on the schedule, which I admit is pretty bad, but that's more CN's fault than the show itself.
- The most likely answer- They watched Mr. Enter's videos.

Me personally, I don't care much for the show, though I never cared for the original either. I only saw like 2 or 3 episodes of the original when it was airing, and only one of those in full.
 
Hey, I catched a glimpse of "Clarence" a few days ago, and even though the art style didn't impress me, it was the show itself that seemed incredibly autistic. I think I haven't seen anything like that since the latest seasons of Spongebob. What's the deal with this show??

Which makes that joke at the end of the trailer pretty funny and self-aware.
 
Posting this here since I love talking about this and I don't know where else to put it.

Does anyone remember when Billy and Mandy made a really sneaky reference to the rape scene in A Clockwork Orange? I'm not kidding. Malcolm McDowell plays a role in the Christmas special, and his very first line of dialogue is him singing, "I'm singin' in the rain, I'm happy again!"

The sheer fact that Billy and Mandy would make a reference that cements it as one of the ballsiest kids cartoons I've ever seen. No kid's ever going to pick up on that subtle reference, the only people who would get it would be adults who've seen A Clockwork Orange.

I remember. He was the gay vampire who they got to help turn Santa Claus back to normal. ("This is the head vampire?" "Or his mother.")

Nothing is funnier than Gilbert Gottfried shouting "I HUNGER FOR BLOOD!"

I see this happened, and apparently Ron Perlman and William Shatner had to be involved.

Because we didn't have enough steampunk wank fantasies in our favorite novels.

You'd think this would work, considering that the original Oz books have a definite ragtime-era feel. You'd be wrong.

"Destroys their world by industry and mechanization"... They have Tik-Tok, who's pretty much a clockwork robot, and even gramophones. (I always notice they mention "ruby-red slippers"... do they want to get sued by Turner?)

Shatner, incidentally, is playing the Wizard himself, so IMDB says.
