This is not that
I get what you're saying, but several of the Bat family's opponents have made the same observation about them. They might not kill but get into protracted fights that last longer than necessary.

Life would be easier for everyone if the Bat family would just taser or tranquilize the bad guys.

I would gladly accept Robin tasering the bad guys over hitman style offing them with serial killer remorselessness.

Looks good. I hate it when they make Batman characters kill but they do it so often, i don't bother to complain anymore. I don't know what kind of agenda DC has but it seems it's about supporting killing.

Technically it doesn't show him killing anyone as the trailer doesn't really show where in the body he shot the bad guys. Although that was pretty brutal breaking the guys jaw by stepping on his face....

I personally prefer the more realistic fighting vs DC's Legends of Tomorrow cheesy fights..

On another note, since I don't want to dwell on all the things I hate about the Titans trailer, looks like the service will be $70 for the year. Which doesn't seem too bad.

Though they've only given us a trailer for one show which is controversial already and the rest is movies most of have seen a hundred and fifty times and comics we'd probably be buying anyway.

I don't know if it'll be successful but at least it isn't overly expensive.

There are better and more comprehensible services for less than $70 a year. Unless they offer more content than just DC stuff, I don’t see much success.

The trade off is they don't need close to Netflix subscriber numbers to get to the black. Netflix spent $6 billion on content last year and will spend $7 billion this year.

Yeah, but I love them for it. Some of their original content is actually really good.

We'll have to see if this service has enough original content of a high caliber to warrant the additional money spent
