The Unholy Dragon Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I'd guess he does a lot of oversight stuff (tone, plotting, etc.) and not the hands on (writing, production, directing) so it's easier for him to do a lot of stuff satellite style. That said, a lot of them are filmed in or near Vancouver so it's not like there's a ton of travel either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Sorrow Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Well, he's doing the Lord's work. Between the DC shows and Riverdale , he's putting out my favorite tv since the days of TNG, DS9, and Voyager. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, out of all the DC franchises they could have made a dark TV show about, we are doing Teen Titans?

When I was still reading comics there was a Titans team and a Teen Titans team and the Titans team dealt with some mature material so maybe that's what they are going for. Teen Titans has a cartoon movie coming out in a few days. It's gotten good reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Austin Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 There was a time when the Teen Titans was one of DC's hottest properties, it was selling even better than Justice League and did a big crossover with X-Men, but that was many years ago, but DC still believes in it obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Okay, how about this. Why are they making Teen Titans like a lame version of Riverdale? If they wanted to do a darkee version of Teen Titans, fine, but why make it look like it's aimed at the Hot Topic populace and nobody else? The designs of some prettt iconic characters to a lot of fans just... Don't look good to any degree. Also, 75 dollar price tag on the streaming service with that being the main calling card? Oof oof oof. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 It's $75/year, which comes out to less than most streaming services. It's about on par with CBS All Access's "limited commercial interruption" tier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bustronaut Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 You have to pay upfront to get the $75 (and three free months) price. Monthly price will be $7.99, whenever they launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Austin Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 From my understanding you can play by the month but it's 7.99 a month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bustronaut Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Boomerang is $40/year, or $5/month. Crunchyroll is $60/year or $7/month (closest thing to DC Universe, but I'm not sure they do original content) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I don't think the price point is great. Obviously I'll pay $7.99 for a while and see how it goes but I think they'd have been better off going a bit lower. This is a niche thing. It's a streaming service that you are going to add on top of already existing streaming services. Like an HBO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a streaming service that you are going to add on top of already existing streaming services. Like an HBO. This is weird thinking. Niche products should cost *more* because they need to recoup their costs over a smaller number of subscribers. Running a lower price point anticipating a small but dedicated base really just loses you the couple bucks a month per customer without much likelihood of gaining more. Like, even with your direct comparison, HBO Now is $15/month. Also that annual price works out to $6.25 a month which isn't bad at all. Hell, it's going to have digital comics too and Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited is $10/month or $70/year last time I checked. No matter what your point of comparison is, I'm not really sure where anyone would have realistically expected $5/month or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Their "loss leader" is the pre-launch annual subscription, which is still $75, but gets you 15 months, dropping the monthly price to $5. I included Cruchyroll in my initial listings because it's the model DC Universe is using, but Japan tends to incredibly underprice their stuff. A subscription to Shonen Jump is $26, and that gets you something like 100 pages of comics a WEEK for a year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
