kori being taller and more muscular than dick and also kicking his ass and implying that it wasn’t the first time..... power move of the century
The first DCAU movie without batman, and i liked it a lot, its so much fun, i want more titans movies.
No surprise Sam Liu is the director. Continuing his everlasting legacy of being a total creep show, it's not since his Killing Joke film that I've felt a DCAU effort be so over sexualised.

when terra treats people like shit she’s a diamond but when i do it i’m just an asshole... i see how it is

Otherwise, this was the most enjoyable I've found Damian, maybe cause he was immobilized for most the runtime.
