8''Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans'' is a 2019 animated DirectToVideo IntraFranchiseCrossover film between the television series ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Teen Titans|2003}}''.
9
10When the two animated incarnations of the Teen Titans are seemingly summoned by a new [[Recap/TeenTitansS2E9WinnerTakeAll Master of Games]] in order to judge which version of the team is superior, they soon discover the contest was fabricated by the 2013 iteration of Trigon, who uses his daughter's recent PowerIncontinence in order to resurrect his 2003 counterpart. After the two Trigons kidnap both Ravens in order to sap their energy, the two teams must set aside their differences in order to rescue their friends and prevent the demons from using their newfound power to conquer the multiverse.
11
12The film debuted at San Diego Comic-Con on July 21, 2019. It later released digitally on September 24, 2019, followed by a DVD/Blu-ray release on October 15, 2019. The official trailer can be viewed [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XPG2xEEOmo here]].

14----
15!!''Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans'' provides examples of:
16
17* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: 2003 Cyborg takes a more serious tone in this movie. While he does smile from time to time, he's more the StraightMan to 2013 Cyborg, who takes 2003 Cyborg's silliness. Though in 2003 Cyborg's defense, one of his best friends was captured ''and'' the universe was in peril at the time.
18* AdaptationalComicRelief: Downplayed; [[spoiler:the 2003 Trigon is still threatening and a KnightOfCerebus but he is much sillier in this movie, albeit mostly as TheComicallySerious, such as demanding a soda when he is thirsty and as a result losing both Ravens when drinking it.]]
19* AdaptationalJerkass: Contrasting his role as the serious, responsible leader from the original series, 2003 Robin is shown to enjoy teasing the 2013 Titans, calling them "Baby Titans" and repeatedly taunting the other Robin during their fight. He is the only one to [[spoiler:not show any genuine respect for his alternate self at the end of the movie, calling 2013 Robin weird and annoying, though he does tell him he needs several more years of training before becoming a true hero.]]
20* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: 2003 Beast Boy is shown training with Cyborg at the 2013 Titans Tower. He generally acts more serious than he did in the original series. This could be because of character development though, or the fact that the 2003 Titans being more serious is part of the joke.
21* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: 2003 Cyborg can fly using jet engines installed on his back and feet, an ability which he had never displayed in his own cartoon. He can also shapeshift his body into a variety of weapons and vehicles, when originally he was only capable of transforming his arms into cannons.
22* AdaptedOut: The ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse'' Titans consist of Starfire, Raven, Beast Boy, Blue Beetle and Damian Wayne. For the sake of consistency, the last two are omitted from this film and replaced by Cyborg (who is a member of the Justice League in that universe) and Dick Grayson (who is a solo vigilante that is only associated with the Titans due to being in a relationship with Starfire).
23* AgonyOfTheFeet: After the Ravens have been weakened, they are forced to walk. As 2013 Raven is used to floating everywhere, her feet quickly become so sore and blistered they break through her shoes.
24* AllianceOfAlternates: The entire premise of this crossover is of the 2003 Teen Titans joining forces with the 2013 Teen Titans, and later of ''every'' version of the Titans in the multiverse.[[note]]With the exception of the live-action ''Series/{{Titans|2018}}'' and the Titans from ''WesternAnimation/DCNation'''s ''New Teen Titans'' shorts that more or less served as the inspiration for ''Go!''.[[/note]]
25* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: The 2003 Titans compared to the 2013 Titans. The 2003 Titans dismiss the 2013 Titans as baby versions of themselves, while the 2013 Titans are jealous of how competent and respected their 2003 selves are. The point where this trope really comes into play is when they meet their even ''more'' mature WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse counterparts, causing the Cyborg from ''Go!'' to have a good laugh at the expense of their 2003 counterparts.
26-->'''''Go!'' Cyborg:''' Like, compared to him, you're a silly little joke-man, like me! Except worse! Because you try to be serious. You just failin' at it!
27* ArcWords: "Leveling up." Mainly used by the 2013 Titans to demonstrate that someone's gaining extra power, like Raven [[spoiler:or Trigon]].
28* AnArmAndALeg: [[spoiler:2003 Trigon is revived minus a leg because he wasn't able to fully absorb 2013 Raven's demon powers. It grows back once he gets the rest of her powers.]]
29* AnachronismStew: One of the worlds visited by the Titans teams, first seen in the ''TTG!'' episode "Classic Titans", resembles the animation style of the 1960s Creator/{{Filmation}} DC Comics cartoons. However, while there ''was'' a Titans cartoon at that time, it used the original line up (Speedy, Kid Flash, Aqualad and Wonder Girl -- [[ScrewedByTheLawyers Robin couldn't appear as Filmation didn't have the Batman license at the time]]). Beast Boy wouldn't be a Titan until the creation of Titans West and Starfire, Raven and Cyborg wouldn't be created until the '80s.
30* ArtShift: The alternate Earths and their inhabitants are drawn in their respective art style.
31* AttackPatternAlpha: Not a surprise coming from the 2003 Titans. Later subverted when 2013 Cyborg tries to invoke one and then has to explain the maneuver aloud. 2003 Cyborg hollers at him that they have to ''agree'' on such code names first, at which point 2013 Cyborg admits that he thought they were just using meaningless words.
32* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:2013 Trigon is able to revive the 2003 Trigon by stealing 2013 Raven's powers.]]
33* BackportedDevelopment: Much like the Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse Batman in ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueVsTheFatalFive'', the '03 Robin is seen at one point using a glider cape similar to the one used by Bats in ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'' and the whole Batfamily (sans Dick as Nightwing) in the ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries''.
34* BeamOWar: The two Starfires had one of these in their initial confrontation using Starbolts from their ''thumbs''.
35* BeatWithoutABut: At the end of the movie when the two Robins go their separate ways, 2003 Robin seems like he changed his opinions on 2013 Robin, but just confirms his initial suspicions.
36-->'''2003 Robin:''' When I first met you, [[OtherMeAnnoysMe I thought you were weird and annoying]]...
37-->'''2013 Robin:''' ... And?
38-->'''2003 Robin:''' And you are.
39* BewareTheSillyOnes: 2013 Trigon may be a sillier version of the character but he's still Trigon. [[spoiler:After being insulted one time too many, he shows just how dangerous he can be by absorbing 2003 Trigon.]]
40* BigBadDuumvirate: The 2003 and 2013 versions of Trigon are the main antagonists of the movie, and they want to enslave the Multiverse.
41* BothSidesHaveAPoint: The '03 Titans criticize their '13 counterparts for being silly and jerkish, while the latter criticize the former for [[{{Hypocrite}} failing to be truly serious Titans]] when they both encounter their PG-13 rated DC Animated Movie Universe Counterparts.
42* BrickJoke:
43** The ''Go!'' versions of Cyborg and Beast Boy ask the Master of Games if steampunk and mermaid versions of the Titans exist within the multiverse. Despite the latter saying no, they do end up encountering them.
44** When the 2013 Trigon tries to convince his Raven to join him, he tells her to abandon the humans, alien and whatever Robin is, he assumes a wombat. When the ''Go!'' Titans are leaving, ''Go!'' Starfire says she'll miss the 2003 Starfire due to being the only alien on a team of humans and whatever Robin is. She also assumes a wombat.
45* BroughtDownToNormal: [[spoiler:2013 Raven, who has her powers drained to revive 2003 Trigon. This causes her to suffer OOCIsSeriousBusiness as, without her demon powers, her personality goes 180.]]
46* ButtMonkey: 2013 Robin, as usual. He's possessed by Gentleman Ghost and beaten to a pulp by his own friends; has his [=VR=] training session hijacked by the other Titans so they can humiliate him; is on the receiving end of a CurbStompBattle with 2003 Robin; and suffers a painful crash to the ground when the Titans are falling from the sky and don't bother flying him to safety. The humiliation only gets worse from there, as everybody, including his own teammates, repeatedly tells to his face that he is nothing but a joke when compared to his 2003 self. During the film's conclusion, [[spoiler:he ultimately fails to earn the other Robin's respect and is given a passive-aggressive TheReasonYouSuckSpeech as they return to their respective dimensions.]]
47* TheCameo:
48** Both versions of Terra appear in the song "We Are Teen Titans": the 2013 Beast Boy is seen flirting with 2013 Terra, and after that 2003 Beast Boy mentions that his Terra died, complete with an image of her TakenForGranite.
49** Several other counterparts, including not just the Animated film versions, but also the comic book versions, as well as the ComicBook/TinyTitans.
50** When the Master of Games explains the Worlogog, numerous Batmen in silhouette are seen. Of them are the Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse, ''WesternAnimation/BewareTheBatman'', Creator/AdamWest, ''WesternAnimation/TheBatman'', the EvilCounterpart Owlman and the ''TTG!'' versions.
51** Both [[Franchise/{{Superman}} Mr. Mxyzptlk]] and Franchise/GreenLantern/Hal Jordan can be seen imprisoned in cages in the Trigons' lair. Given the former resembles the Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse version and the film features the multiverse, it isn't hard to believe that is the same character. [[spoiler:''ComicBook/SupermanReborn'' reveals that all versions of Mxyzptlk are simply the comic version visiting other realities.]]
52* CannibalismSuperpower: [[spoiler:Both 2013 versions of Trigon and Raven become more powerful by eating their alternate selves.]]
53* CanonDiscontinuity: ''TTG!'''s crew doesn't consider the film to be canon.
54* CastAsAMask: [[spoiler:The Master of Games is voiced by Rhys Darby. It turns out this is a disguise for 2013 Trigon, who's voiced by Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson.]]
55* ContinuityNod: To both 2003 and 2013 series:
56** 2003 Beast Boy recalls that he last saw Terra TakenForGranite.
57** 2003 Raven mentions defeating her father once and for all.
58** 2013 Cyborg mentions to 2003 Cyborg that he once contained a waffle machine, and the time 2013 Trigon gave him a puppy for a hand.
59* CrisisCrossover: Several different alternate universe Titans, including those from the comics, team up to stop the BigBad during the film's climax.
60* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass:
61** Despite being presented as a fool much like the rest of her team, 2013 Starfire manages to beat her 2003 counterpart in a fair battle (albeit a thumb war) and is only taken out of the titular fight herself when she hesitates to attack 2003 Robin.
62** 2013 Beast Boy quickly realizes that his cartoonish transformations are hopeless against his 2003 self's realistic ones, so he instead morphs into a RidiculouslyCuteCritter and tricks the other Beast Boy into picking him up, after which he becomes a whale and crushes his opponent, winning the round.
63* CursedWithAwesome: 2013 Cyborg chastises 2003 Cyborg for thinking his robotic body was a curse.
64* DarkerAndEdgier: Played with. The 2013 Titans think the 2003 Titans are overly serious, [[spoiler:but then they meet the [[AlwaysSomeoneBetter DCAMU Titans]], who hail from a much grimmer universe. This causes 2013 Cyborg to mock his 2003 self, since they both look much more lighthearted by comparison]].
65* TheDogBitesBack: After being insulted one too many times, [[spoiler:2013 Trigon forcibly eats 2003 Trigon, absorbing his power and forming a OneWingedAngel.]]
66* TheDragon: Even though it's supposed to be a BigBadDuumvirate, 2013 Trigon puts himself in this position to his 2003 self. [[spoiler:At least until [[RageBreakingPoint he's had enough]] and [[FusionDance absorbs him]].]]
67* EatingTheEyeCandy: Both Starfires ''really'' delights in the sight of the 2016 Robin from ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueVsTeenTitans''. Leading to the two other Robins to leave unanimously.
68--> '''2013 Starfire''': And they have an even more ''handsome'' Robin...\
69'''2003 Starfire''': Yeah...
70* ExplainExplainOhCrap: [[spoiler:When 2013 Cyborg confirms to the 2003 Robin they're facing the 2013 Trigon, he immediately panics as he realizes the hands holding the Ravens captive belong to 2003 Trigon.]]
71* FateWorseThanDeath: [[spoiler:After Hexagon is defeated, 2003 Trigon loses his corporeal form while 2013 Trigon is sent to a dimension where everyone is a zombie... including ''himself''.]]
72* FightingAcrossTimeAndSpace: The two teams of Titans steal the Worlogog from SantaClaus and Mrs. Claus and use a vehicle made from the two Cyborgs to fly through a portal created by the Worlogog, but the Santas follow them through on their sled into the space between dimensions. The Santas chase the Titans through portals to various alternate Earths and we get to see several alternate dimensions and their versions of the Teen Titans. These versions are from other official DC media, past ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' episodes, and hypothetical alternate Earths theorized by Beast Boy and Cyborg earlier in the film.
73* FlatWhat: This funny bit near the end:
74--> '''2003 Raven''': You have to ''[[spoiler:eat me]]''.\
75[''after a dramatic pause'']\
76'''2013 Raven''': What?
77* ForcedPrizeFight: The Master of Games pits the 2003 and 2013 Titans against each other to prove which is the best version of the team. The 2003 Titans are told that their planet is at stake, while 2013 Robin happily accepts for a chance to prove himself.
78* ForgotAboutHisPowers: When the two teams fall out of the sky, the 2013 team panics and flails around, while the 2003 team sighs and flies to safety (2003 Robin uses his cape as a glider). Upon seeing this, the 2013 team remembers they can fly and do so, except for 2013 Robin who crashes painfully onto the tower's roof.
79* FullFrontalAssault: In 2013 Robin's VR training, his avatar does not wear his usual outfit.
80* FusionDance:
81** [[spoiler:2013 Trigon merges with 2003 Trigon to become Hexagon.]]
82** [[spoiler:Raven likewise merges with every alternate version of herself to fight Hexagon as "The Unkindness".]]
83* TheHeart: Starfire as always, the two teams only start working together when both versions sing a song that they're all Teen Titans and should work together instead of being at each other's throats.
84* TheHeavy: Like [[TheStarscream Slade]] before him, 2013 Trigon serves as this for the movie. From planning and executing 2003 Triton's resurrection by draining 2013 Raven's powers to finding the Ravens after their escape, and [[spoiler: absorbing his counterpart to become [[OnWingedAngel Hexagon]] and even then his personality remains after the fusion.]] He's the most active threat that both Titans from 2003 and 2013 face.
85* HeyThatsMyLine: During the fight between both versions of the Teen Titans, 2003 Cyborg shoots 2013 Cyborg's head out of his ArmCannon while shouting "[[CatchPhrase Booyah!]]":
86-->'''2013 Cyborg:''' That's my line!\
87'''2003 Cyborg:''' ''(smirking)'' Mine first.
88* HeyYouHaymaker: Go Cyborg [[spoiler:figures out the Worlogog and transports everyone to the correct dimension to confront Trigon. As soon as they arrive there, he sucker punches the villain.]]
89--> "What up big T! Check out this fist I made!"
90* {{Irony}}: In a meta-sense, at one point the "Go" versions make fun of the '03 Titans after seeing the [=DCAMU=] versions, claiming they were trying to be a knockoff serious version of them. While funny, the irony comes from the fact that if it ''wasn't'' for the '03 version, the "Go" Titans ''wouldn't exist at all'' since they're a spin-off from the '03 show. At the same time though, the '03 Titans and their fans calling their Go! counterparts childish after said [=DCAMU=] versions show up, and then when they travel to the ''ComicBook/TinyTitans'' universe.
91* ITasteDelicious: [[spoiler:2013 Raven admits she tastes surprisingly good after eating every alternative version of herself because of 2003 Raven's plan.]]
92* ImprovisedParachute: 2003 Robin's cape seems to be upgraded in the interim, where now it can be used as a makeshift chute when the Titans are falling from the stratosphere after Trigon blows up the arena. [[AmusingInjuries The Go! version of Robin though...]]
93* InformedAttribute: Despite 2013 Cyborg repeatedly calling his other self the "serious version" of the character, 2003 Cyborg isn't that different from him: He can also transform his body in comically cartoonish ways, one of the weapons he stores inside his body is a water balloon, and he is overjoyed once he realizes that Santa Claus exists in the ''Go!'' universe.
94* InherentlyFunnyWords: The ''Go!'' versions of Starfire, Beast Boy, and Cyborg find "Worlogog" fun to say. They get their ''2003'' versions in on it [[https://youtu.be/LG5UelRC5AU through song]].
95* IntraFranchiseCrossover: Between the 2003 Titans and the 2013 Titans, [[spoiler:and also with ''every single version of the Titans across the Multiverse'', including the 80's comic and DC Animated Movie Universe.]]
96* KnightOfCerebus: 2003 Trigon. While he is TheComicallySerious, his presence raises the stakes of this movie. [[spoiler:When 2013 Trigon eats 2003 Trigon to become Hexagon, things get more dangerous.]]
97* LeftHanging: TheStinger of ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGoToTheMovies'', with the 2003 Titans desperately attempting to "find a way back" from something, isn't really followed up on or acknowledged within this movie. Though they could have been talking about being captured by the Master of Games[[spoiler:/the Trigons.]]
98* LetsYouAndHimFight: During the Tournament of Titans, both 2003 and 2013 teams go at it, but are unaware why the other's fighting - the 2003 team thinks they're fighting to save their Earth, the 2013 team thinks they're fighting to prove who's the best. 2003 Robin ''tries'' to get his tiny counterpart to stop fighting, but he's so into trying to beat him that he gives up and easily defeats him.
99* ManChild: The overweight fan who says that ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' ruined his childhood is portrayed as a bald middle-aged man wearing a ''Franchise/MyLittlePony'' shirt. When 2003 Robin triumphs over his 2013 self, the fan can be seen shedding tears of joy and cheering like an enthusiastic child.
100* MassOhCrap: Both teams of Titans collectively reacts in panic when [[spoiler:2013!Trigon devours his 2003 counterpart and turn into Hexagon]].
101* MediumAwareness: 2003 Raven's reason for having 2013 Raven [[spoiler:eat the other Ravens to gain their power]] is "my mouth won't animate that big".
102* MirrorCharacter: Both Robins show jealousy when their Starfires find the Animated Movie Universe Dick Grayson more handsome. Though 2003 is more discreet about it. It is the ONLY thing they actually agree on in the movie.
103* MoodWhiplash: The loud and energetic "We Are Titans" song has a single verse where Beast Boy somberly reminisces of Terra's sacrifice in the 2003 series.
104* MyGodYouAreSerious: 2003 Cyborg is shocked that the 2013 Titans were serious about getting a Worlogog from Santa, who's a recurring antagonist in ''Go!''.
105* NeverMyFault: 2003 Trigon decides to hold the Ravens captive by holding them in his fists. This enables the two girls to easily escape the demon, as they trick him into opening his hands to grab a soda. Despite their plan only working due to his own stupidity, Trigon immediately blames his 2013 self for letting them get away with it.
106* NonSerialMovie: The crew working on the movie put it out of continuity and declared it non-canon. And particularly during ''Go's'' eighth season episode "Intro", which saw the ''Go!'' Titans visit the 2003 world, none of the events of this movie are referenced.
107* NothingIsTheSameAnymore: After both universes' Trigons absorb 2013 Raven's inner demon with the goal of dominating the multiverse, she absorbs the power of dozens of alternate universe Ravens to reclaim it from them. Once reabsorbing it, she speaks with it in her [[MentalWorld mind]], apologizing for how she's spent her entire life fearing it and keeping it imprisoned. They agree to share her powers equally, [[SplitPersonalityMerge permanently merging]], and from then on the gem is absent from her head. This is probably [[StatusQuoIsGod the main reason]] why the movie isn't considered canon by the crew.
108* NotSoAboveItAll:
109** 2003 Cyborg is generally 2013 Cyborg's StraightMan, but even he was overjoyed that Santa exists in the ''Go!'' universe.
110** 2003 Trigon of all people shows a goofier side in this movie. The Ravens manage to escape his grasp by making him feel thirsty, forcing him to let them go so he can grab himself a soda to quench it.
111** 2003 Beast Boy can't resist 2013 Beast Boy's cute kitten face and falls for it, right before [[SchmuckBait the latter turns into a whale and crushes him]].
112* NotSoHarmlessVillain: The 2013 Trigon is generally much laxer and nicer than the 2003 Trigon, which makes it a shock when [[spoiler:the 2013 Trigon forcibly absorbs the 2003 Trigon when he's had enough of the 2003 version mocking him.]]
113* OneWingedAngel: After being pushed too far, [[spoiler:2013 Trigon eats 2003 Trigon and transforms into Hexagon.]]
114* OtherMeAnnoysMe:
115** The male members of 2003 and 2013 Titans do not get along at first but slowly bond. The Robins especially do not like each other, more on 2003 Robin's part than 2013's, being put off by his personality, and [[spoiler:are the only members of either teams to not show respect towards each other when they part ways.]]
116** This holds true for the Trigons as well, with 2003 Trigon ordering 2013 Trigon around like a servant.
117* OverlyLongGag: In the opening, the sequence where Starfire ''slowly'' pours Silkie some food lasts for about 20 seconds.
118* {{Padding}}: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] in-universe by 2013 Beast Boy and Cyborg after the admittedly superfluous Worlogog song.
119* PoorCommunicationKills: The Master of Games [[spoiler:(2013 Trigon)]] tells the 2013 Titans that the battle is to see who is the best team, while the 2003 Titans are told that their world would be destroyed. Neither of them know this, which is the main reason why the two Robins butt heads.
120* PowerIncontinence: 2013 Raven's gem is damaged, which allows her inner demon to manifest if she uses her powers. When she's the last Titan standing on her team, she's forced to fight. This is ''exactly'' what the Master of Games wants.
121* {{Pun}}: A few, including [[FusionDance Hexagon]] and the Protein Titans.
122* RageBreakingPoint: For the majority of the movie, 2013 Trigon has been taking 2003 Trigon's insults with relative calmness... right up until the latter gives him a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech. [[spoiler:At which point, 2013 Trigon stops messing around and eats his former partner, becoming a serious threat to both teams.]]
123-->'''2013 Trigon:''' I have had about enough of you!
124* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: 2003 Trigon finally snaps against 2013 Trigon, calling him a silly and pathetic joke like everything else from his world.
125* RunningGag: Titan Tower being damaged. About half of the towers the 2003 and 2013 Titans encounter are damaged in some manner, mainly because of the teams recklessly jumping through different universes and having the Tower right in their immediate path of travel. This is on top of the abuse the 2013 Tower usually sees. It reaches its climax in the initial moments of battle with both Trigons, during which the 2003 Tower is struck.
126-->'''2003 Robin''': "Oh, come ''on''!"
127* SelfDeprecation: A given considering that ''Teen Titans Go!'' makes up one half of the crossover. The movie pokes fun at how popular in ratings and hated by fans of the 2003 series ''TTG'' is.
128* ShoutOut: The final scene where all the Titans from across TheMultiverse get summoned to help, they are referred to as the "[[ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths Titans on Infinite Earths]]".
129** The Starfires' rap duet has them channeling Music/SaltNPepa.
130* SpoilerOpening: The opening spoils that Trigon is behind the events of the movie and that the Titans will journey across the multiverse, meeting other versions of themselves in the process.
131* TheStinger: [[spoiler:The 2013 Teen Titans try to relax and are just completely annoyed by an Apokolyptian invasion.]]
132* SurpriseSantaEncounter: While Santa Claus is already a recurring character in the ''Go!'' universe, his brief appearance in the 2016-verse (from ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueVsTeenTitans'') prompts this reaction from the 2016 Titans, since their universe presumably ''doesn't'' have a Santa.
133--> '''2016 Robin''': Is that... Santa Claus?
134* TakeThat:
135** When the two teams meet the ''Animated Movie Universe'' Titans, the 2013 Titans unanimously agree that those are the "real serious Titans" and mock their 2003 selves for it.
136** Subverted with the "We Are Titans" musical number. When the song starts, it looks as if the two teams are about to roast each others' shows, with 2003 Starfire ridiculing the new Titans' flat design, and her 2013 self poking fun at the ratings for the older series plummeting during its final seasons. However, the following verses ultimately acknowledge that each show has its own merits and shower them both with praise instead.
137** [[spoiler: TheStinger seems to put a few jabs at ''Film/JusticeLeague2017'' with the Titans not really caring about Darkseid's invasion (except for Cyborg).]]
138* TakeThatCritics: Par for the course for ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo''. One of the spectators watching the 2003 and 2013 Titans battle each other is a fat sweaty man wearing a ''[[MyLittlePhony Pretty Pretty Pegasus]]'' T-shirt, holding an anti-Teen Titans Go sign over his head and screaming that the 2013 Titans ruined his childhood.
139* TalkToTheFist: The Robins do this to each other several times. For example, in their first meeting, 2013 Robin tries CallingYourAttacks with various martial arts moves, only to get punched out while he is talking.
140* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Initially, the 2003 and 2013 Titans don't get along well, but they gradually get to bond with each other and eventually save the world.
141* VomitIndiscretionShot: 2013 Silkie vomits up half-digested garbage for a solid five seconds when 2003 Starfire points out he shouldn't be eating so much of it.
142* YouCantGoHomeAgain: InvertedTrope. [[spoiler:At the end of the film, 2003 Robin refuses to give the 2013 Titans their Worlogog back, thus preventing them from ever leaving their own universe.]]
