'''Raven:''' They are not demons. [[MindRape Let me show you one...]]

** Aqualad and Wonder Girl don't appear with the original Titans team when seen in a flashback. [[spoiler:Wonder Girl does, however, have a cameo at the end where it's revealed she has joined the Titans after Terra's death. This is her first animated Titans appearance, after being the only Bronze Age Titan who didn't get at least a guest spot on the TV series]].

* AdaptationalHeroism: [[spoiler: Terra's still evil, but she's not the sociopath she was in the comics. Rather, Deathstroke saved her from a bunch of bigots planning to murder her and took her in to raise as his daughter. She even uses her powers to send Beast Boy away when she brings Blood's lair down on herself and Deathstroke. How evil the original was, ''scaring even Slade himself at times,'' can't be overstated. Unlike in the comics, she actually apologizes to Beast Boy for betraying him and the team.]]
* AdaptationalKarma:
** In the comics, [[spoiler: Deathstroke was tried for his part in kidnapping the Titans, but he got off scot-free due to his connections, talked down an angry Beast Boy who wanted to murder him, and encouraged the Titans to take in his two more heroic children. There's none of that here; if he survived Terra bringing rubble down on him, he's in for a lot of pain and legal repercussions.]]
** To a more minor extent, [[spoiler: Terra's betrayal in the comics was covered up, and the Titans maintained that she died a hero. This had serious repercussions when, in a BadFuture, a villain decided to recreate the exact plot with a new girl and new Titans. Here, while Terra is given DueToTheDead, it's also established that the public knows the gist of what happened and that she was TheMole.]]

** Aqualad and Wonder Girl don't appear with the original Titans team when seen in a flashback. [[spoiler: Wonder Girl does, however, have a cameo at the end where it's revealed she has joined the Titans after Terra's death. This is her first animated Titans appearance, after being the only Bronze Age Titan who didn't get at least a guest spot on the TV series]].

* AdaptationalVillainy: Slade cares for ''no one'' in this version; Terra is a pawn to him, we don't see his family anywhere, and he doesn't have any redeeming moments whatsoever. To seal the deal, [[spoiler: he sells out Terra to Brother Blood without hesitation and gives a rather cold apology when she's clearly heartbroken over him leaving her to die just for a paycheck.]]

* AllYourPowersCombined: [[spoiler: Brother Blood's final plan is to leech the Teen Titans of their powers. He gets halfway there, failing to drain them completely but still gaining their powers.]]

-->'''Brother Blood''': No, you stay away from me! You demon filth! \\

* TheBerserker: Usually Terra holds back with her powers because the wrong move could get people hurt in the backlash. But then in the climax, [[spoiler: when she's raging against Slade for betraying her, she no longer cares and becomes a OneWomanArmy]].

* BoomHeadshot: Jericho gets this when he's finished testing the PowerCopying machine. [[spoiler: It doesn't stick.]]

-->'''Damian''': "Hey, Papa! Here's your pipe!" ''(whacks him in the head with a lead pipe)''

* DeathEqualsRedemption: [[spoiler: The Titans might have forgiven Terra knowing the kind of monster Deathstroke is, depending on how much time they had to deal with their grief. Sadly, she couldn't forgive herself for betraying the team and feels she has no place in the world now that Deathstroke betrayed her and never cared for her. She destroys Brother Blood's lair and stops Beast Boy from saving her, though she apologizes to him. While the team doesn't cover up her actions, Beast Boy points out that she did the right thing in the end.]]
* DePower: [[spoiler: Raven uses her dark magic to drain all of Blood's stolen power and his immortality.]]
* DidntSeeThatComing: [[spoiler: Brother Blood's most devoted follower would shoot him.]]
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: [[spoiler: In the aftermath of her cave-in, Beast Boy digs Terra out of the rubble and finds her still barely alive. She smiles happily at him before passing away in his arms as he cries. No one could save her.]]

* EvilCannotComprehendGood: [[spoiler: Terra, but more specifically, "Traumatized and Brainwashed Cannot Comprehend Good." The reason she can't fully trust that the Titans is genuine because she has already witnessed the worst of humanity, as much as her devotion to Deathstroke. She's also completely thrown off when the team doesn't blame her for losing control and nearly killing Garfield during training.]]
* EvilCostumeSwitch: [[spoiler: Terra gets one after going full-on traitor: evil haircut and dye job, [[ExcessiveEvilEyeshadow evil eye-liner and eye-shadow]], and new evil ear-piercings.]]

-->'''Terra:''' I do all the dirty work.

* AGodAmI: Brother Blood proclaims this after he's [[spoiler: absorbed the powers of the Titans]].
* HairTriggerTemper: [[spoiler: Jaime's dad seems to set off the Scarab Armor, as it doesn't like his temper.]]

** Even though Terra's role with the Titans came to an end, she still holds onto her phone, which ultimately allows Dick to track her. [[spoiler: Perhaps it’s the result of her still being conflicted over betraying the other Titans.]]

-->'''Kory''': You lasted longer this time.\\
'''Terra''': ''(snickers)''\\
'''Kory''': [[ThatCameOutWrong I meant in training, obviously.]] He's quite proficient when we have s--\\
'''Dick''': Kory!

* MercyKill: [[spoiler: Mayhem shoots Blood after he's been drained of his power by Raven, to spare him prison.]]

* TheMole: [[spoiler: Terra is working with Deathstroke to capture the Titans]].
* MookChivalry: A rare version on the heroes' side. [[spoiler: After Blood absorbs all of the Titans' powers, their "fight" consists of the Titans repeatedly rushing at Blood one at a time, to no effect.]]
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler: Terra is horrified when she realizes that the man she trusted, whom she saw as a father and future-lover, betrayed her and left her to die with the Titans for mere payment. What's more, she seems to realize that the Titans in a year cared for her well-being more than Deathstroke during her entire ''life''... and she just betrayed them for him.]]

* NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead: Beast Boy when talking about [[spoiler: Terra refuses to badmouth her during the podcast. He has every reason to, given that she nearly got him and the whole team killed, but she also saved them when the chips came down and she finally realized who was truly on her side.]]

* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler: Raven and Terra's]] unseen battle left the room they were in utterly trashed. While we don't see how it got that way and it's clear that Terra eventually won, those two girls threw down a ''major'' battle.
* OnceMoreWithClarity: We see how (most) of the Titans were [[spoiler: captured by Slade]] when Dick investigates the aftermath and pieces together what happened.

* PragmaticAdaptation: It's set within the ''ComicBook/{{New 52}}''-based movies and replacing Cyborg with Blue Beetle and features Damian Wayne. It also updates the [[spoiler: Terra and Deathstroke relationship, to show that Terra has less culpability than she did in the comic and to not give Slade any redeeming moments. Terra and Slade are also not actively sleeping together in this adaption, Terra wants to be but Slade is stringing her along.]]
* PreciousPuppy: [[spoiler: Raven gives Damian a puppy at the end of the film, which is later revealed (in the Batman movies taking place after this) to be Titus.]]
* ProperlyParanoid: Damian is convinced that something deeper than trauma is affecting Terra's behavior. [[spoiler: It wasn't bad enough that he suspected she was a traitor, though. He even turned his back to her and told her to stay back so Slade couldn't hurt her.]]
* SayMyName: [[spoiler: Terra screams Slade's name after breaking free from captivity following his turning on her.]]

-->'''Nightwing''': ''[investigating the scene after the fact]'' Oh, come on, Gar!

* ShipTease: Again, between Damian and Raven. Though it's less obvious compared to ''Justice League vs Teen Titans'', they do share a certain level of intimacy and understanding with one another. She's also the only one who gets to call him out on his attitude without him getting too nasty in return. [[spoiler: It's most obvious in their final scene together when Raven gives him a puppy as a gift and he accepts.]]

* TheStinger: [[spoiler: Jericho heals from his headshot and his eyes glow.]]

* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Slade's reaction to [[spoiler: Terra going apocalyptic on him after he betrayed her]].
* TogetherInDeath: [[spoiler: After shooting Blood, Mayhem holds his body as Blood's lair collapses on top of them.]]
* UncannyValleyMakeup: [[spoiler: Just to add to the Squick of the whole thing, Terra's face is ''caked'' in makeup (in a poor fashion that only makes her look like a child trying to be grown-up) when she tries seducing Slade.]]
* VillainousBreakdown: Brother Blood begins ranting about his destiny while [[spoiler: his lair is collapsing]]. He barely pauses as the Titans are beating him up in the middle of it.

* WasItAllALie: Terra angrily asks [[spoiler: Slade if she was just another test subject for him to study just like the Titans had been to him. A very understandable question, since he sold her out to Brother Blood and left her to die. Deathstroke tries to claim it was a misunderstanding, not really answering her question. It doesn't matter; when she's free, she goes on a full rampage against him]].

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Nearly half of Mayhem's role in this film is shooting people once they're no longer of use. Since she's dealing with cult members, they just take this quietly. And in the end, [[spoiler: Brother Blood learns the problem with having someone with this trope as her solution for everything as his right hand the hard way.]]
