I just finished the Titans finale, and I was just wondering does anyone feel Titans should’ve been done as a movie instead of a show? Because I’m watching Titans and man, does a lot of it feel cheap. VFX heavy stuff like Trigon, Beast Boy, Starfire are really stuff that I feel should’ve been given a good budget to pull off properly. I think the Titans comics really lend themselves to a more larger than life handling. I’m curious for your thoughts on this.

No, I think a television series works just fine, but the Titans show has been a bit of a letdown so far for me.
The writing isn't clicking and the shows feels quite disjointed.
I also agree the special effects are very average. Trigon in particular was an ENORMOUS letdown."My name is Wally West. I'm the fastest man alive!"
I'll try being nicer if you try being smarter.

Because they don't have infinite resources and are not about to waste both a movie and a tv series slot on the same second tier property?

It's just the writing and direction of the Titans is rather crappy.

It's not because of the format. It's the obvious lack of budget. They need more money to bring in better VFX.

Titans problem is that it has people working on it that doesn't care for the source material. Every direction and choice on that show is terrible. The production is god awful as well.
