Well, the show was still popular, despite being hated by OG TT fans for a reason (which it never stopped the show from being popular). Not to mention, this is based on DC Characters, and like Marvel, they were part of pop culture and is appealing to everyone. Despite the DCEU’s misste- oh, I’m sorry, I meant “Worlds of DC”‘s missteps in past films (except Wonder Woman, the salvation to female-driven films until Ocean’s 8 ruined it for the Internet).
Unlike MLP, which it has lost its popularity thanks to fandom drama back in 2013, and yet the people see the fandom as weird and still see MLP as a girl-oriented franchise. Not to mention the “It sells toys therefore it’s shit” logic (srsly, it needs to die, bro), no matter how faithful to the show the film is.
But, the movie isn’t released just yet, the consensus has yet to be written and there are a few pro critics who has yet to give this movie a negative review. Also, like the MLP film (and a majority of Lionsgate tentpole films that flopped like Power Rangers), it’s only releasing the TTG film ONLY IN 2D and I have yet to see if it flops like MLP or Power Rangers or not and pull a Marvel on that (considering it’s from WB and it’s based on DC Characters).
