Today we will talk about the American drama "Titan Season 1".
The title is Titans Season 1 (2018).
"Titan" is the first self-made TV series launched after DC launched its own streaming media platform. The show is also the live-action debut of DC comics heroes Raven, Starfire, Hawk, Dove and Beast Boy.
In this sense, "Titan" is a super-English drama that carries huge expectations.
It can be seen from the poster of this play that the four young people form the Titans.
Looking from left to right in the picture above, they are the green-haired beast boy, the purple-haired raven, the Nightwing and the red-haired Starfire.
In addition to these four main actors, there are four other superheroes to cooperate. They are Wonder Girl, Warhawk, Dove, and Jason Todd.
In the opening logo of each episode of "Titan", a character flashes past the logo.
If you look carefully, you will find that the opening logo of each episode is slightly different, and the characters appearing on the opening logo are what will happen in this episode.
The story that "Titan Season 1" wants to tell is that these teenagers want to get rid of the shadows that once haunted them and find their own lives.
Let's introduce the growth process that these eight characters want to complete according to the severity of the drama.
The C-bit of the whole play is the core big young nightwing .
Nightwing's full name is Richard John "Dick" Grayson (Richard John "Dick" Grayson), Batman's assistant and the first Robin (Robin).
His hair is black, his commonly used weapon is a short club, he has superb juggling skills, is a master of combat, has leadership skills, strong detective abilities and spy skills.
Dick was originally the youngest member of the Grayson family, the trapeze family of the circus. Because the circus did not pay protection fees to the underworld, the underworld pours strong acid on the ropes of the trapeze performance, and Dick's parents died unexpectedly during the performance. After becoming an orphan, Dick was adopted by Bruce Wayne, who was also an orphan. Dick occasionally learned the truth about the murder of his parents and began to seek revenge. Batman started training Dick, and his assistant Robin was born.
As an orphan, the relationship between Dick and Batman is also a father, teacher and friend, but Dick is not as dark as Batman, but more energetic and energetic, so Dick often plays the role of awakening Batman's conscience and reason. Later, in order to awaken the dark knight side of Batman, Dick was arranged to go to school in the comics, and Dick and Batgirl Barbara Gordon fell in love. During a mission, Barbara almost died. Dick blamed Batman for failing to protect Barbara. Pull and leave.
In Dick’s comic story, Dick had two marriages, one was to marry an ordinary person and have children, the other was to marry Xinghuo, and the child was called Nightstar. But in the Batman comic story, Dick still falls in love with Barbara.
The TV drama version retains most of Dick's story. Dick and Batman's concept are different and leave. Batman also removes Dick's Robin.
In the play, Dick hopes to get rid of Robin's past by becoming Nightwing, but also to get rid of the stigma left by Batman. The whole part about Dick in the first season basically talked about this. Can Dick successfully start his own life? Judging from the last pit dug this season, Dick not only failed to get rid of Batman, but also plunged himself into darkness for this.
Just like a paragraph said: "Did you forget him?" "Forgot." "I haven't said who it is."
The other thing that provokes this season's main beam is the raven .
Raven is more like a powerful magic girl, but the magic she possesses is unstable and uncontrolled. Therefore, the raven doesn't seem to have much combat effectiveness at ordinary times, and once it becomes black, its combat effectiveness will explode.
The abilities that have been demonstrated in the drama version include healing abilities, emotional abilities, magic abilities, and shadow control abilities.
There are also some abilities that appear in the comics, including the soul ability, the spiritual world ability, the teleport ability, the ability to cross dimensions, the ability to pause time, the ability to control the demons, etc...
Raven’s father is Trigon, an extra-dimensional demon. Sannomiya always wanted to find opportunities to descend on the earth, and then destroy the earth.
Raven provokes another main plot in the season. She has to resist the continuous pursuit and the temptation of the dark side of her heart to prevent the devil's plan from succeeding.
The spark full of bling bling is an alien princess.
Her real name is Koriand'r, and she came to Earth to seek refuge from the warrior planet. In the play, Xinghuo suffers from amnesia, and in the comics, Xinghuo escapes from slavery and then arrives on earth.
In the comics, Spark has super power, super endurance, super agility, super vision, invulnerability, astral projection, release of explosions, violent violence, willpower building, and powerful unarmed combat capabilities. Xinghuo ranked 20th in the "100 Sexiest Manga Women" list. In 2013, Spark ranked 21st in the Top25 of IGN's DC Comics Characters.
The TV series turned Xinghuo into an African American, which can only be said to be very politically correct.
The spark in "Titan" is very weak at night, and her energy is solar, so it only needs to absorb the energy of the sun to emit the flame.
The fourth member of the Titans, the Beast Boy , can only say that his presence is zero.
The Beast Boy is probably like the Sea King among the seven giants of the Justice League, who is usually a super soldier.
The Beast Boy was originally named Garfield Gal Logan. When he was young, he suffered from a rare tropical disease. The Chief gave him an untested serum to treat him. The serum saved his life and brought side effects. Beast Boy's skin and hair have permanently turned green, and he also has the ability to transform into various animals.
In the TV series, in order to save costs, the Beast Boy only has green hair.
And you can only become a tiger, so you don't need to be a model of other animals.
The origin story of the magical girl Donna Troy has been changed many times. It was first set to be an orphan adopted by the Amazons. Subsequently, the orphans rescued from the fire, the orphans rescued by the Wonder Woman mother from the slave market, and the lost orphans of the mythical Titans were added.
There are not many magical girls in "Titan", the main role is to appease and enlighten Nightwing, and the biggest role is to take on the value of the whole show.
The Eagles and the White Pigeons got acquainted with each other because of a car accident, and they started their careers as volunteer police officers.
The eagle was born as a rugby player and the white dove was born as a ballerina, which are far from the super power settings in the comics.
In the first season, I spent the entire 1 episode telling War Eagle’s tragic childhood, completely free from the main storyline. This makes the entire first season like a prose poem.
The second young man , Jason Todd, is a second-generation Robin. He has experienced a death. From Batman's former assistant to the enemy's red hood, he finally changed his mind and became an anti-hero.
Jason Todd in the play just became Robin not long ago, and still reveals a fresh curiosity. But his contempt for authority has been fully revealed.
"Titan Season 1" ended with an exciting ending. Dick did not withstand the test of the Sannomiya but succumbed to his dark side, and was subsequently controlled by the Sannomiya.
This kind of digging setting can be regarded as a routine operation in American TV dramas. Another reason is that the next episode will be the finale of the first season. In order to forcefully create suspense, the finale will be the first episode of the second season.
We can see that Xinghuo wore a curly wig at the premiere of the second season, and straight hair for the rest of the second season.
"Titan" also successfully spawned a spin-off drama "The Doom Patrol" (The Doom Patrol).
The original member of the Doomsday Patrol, the Beast Boy, leads the Doomsday Patrol. Several members of the Doomsday Patrol made their appearance in "Titan". This was their first live performance and also a pilot broadcast for the "Doomsday Patrol". After the Beast Boy led the Doomsday Patrol, the whole season was almost useless.
With the entire episode's time paving the way for spin-offs, you can imagine how scattered "Titan Season 1" is.
Prose poems of young heroes,
It is not easy to be independent.
