Cartoon 'Teen Titans' goof across DC universe

When it comes to superhero movies, there's a perception that you've got to choose between DC's gritty, dour offerings or Marvel's winking humor. But five cartoon wannabe heroes armed with fart jokes are trying to change that.

Warner Bros. has elevated its "B" level DC superheroes in Teen Titans Go! from basic cable to the big screen in hopes they can do what so many of its A-list films cannot - add a dose of surreal and goofy humor to its universe. Think of it like "Deadpool" for the middle school set.

Teen Titans Go! to the Movies might be aimed at fans of the manic and underrated Cartoon Network show but any parent who tags along will likely chortle as the film gleefully skewers the world of superheroes and the film industry itself.
