Teen Titans Go! To The Movies was projected to launch in the $15 million range. Unfortunately, a packed weekend that had
Mission Impossible: Fallout and
Mama Mia! Here We Go Again prevented the movie from achieving this result.
As disappointing as this outcome is, the good news is that since the film had a budget of only $10 million, it'll make back its production costs and more by the time it launches on home video. Furthermore, its been a valuable promotional vehicle for the tv series as well as the franchise's licensing and merchandising programs.
Hopefully, this will not discourage Warner Bros. or other studios from producing more 2d animated films.
Teen Titans Go! To The Movies has a charm that stands out in a market saturated with bland 3d animated fare.

When the Teen Titans go to the big screen, they go big! Teen Titans GO! to the Movies finds our egocentric, wildly satirical Super Heroes in their first feature film extravaganza—a fresh, gleefully clever, kid-appropriately crass and tongue-in-cheek play on the superhero genre, complete with musical numbers.
It seems to the Teens that all the major superheroes out there are starring in their own movies—everyone but the Teen Titans, that is! But de facto leader Robin is determined to remedy the situation, and be seen as a star instead of a sidekick. If only they could get the hottest Hollywood film director to notice them. With a few madcap ideas and a song in their heart, the Teen Titans head to Tinsel Town, certain to pull off their dream. But when the group is radically misdirected by a seriously Super-Villain and his maniacal plan to take over the Earth, things really go awry. The team finds their friendship and their fighting spirit failing, putting the very fate of the Teen Titans themselves on the line!
