    Is it wrong that I found Kara’s backstory the most compelling part of the film? Would love a whole movie dedicated to her time on earth initially with Clark. Learning the language and trying to assimilate but ultimately leaving. This movie feels like the sequel to that movie. I feel like I don’t even know Kara like that. This film feels like it was made for people who have a sense of familiarity with some of these characters. Even Lobo you can tell by the way he’s presented, it comes off as some sort of inside joke with the audience that know about him. Who is this guy? Is he a hero, a villain? Something else? His entire purpose in this films feels more like a shoehorn than anything truly organic. Increasingly films like this, Superman, s*** even the Michael Jackson biopic operate as if the audience is already aware of who these people are and don’t do any of the work to actually develop these characters. It’s sort of annoying as a new viewer who doesn’t really know too much. I’m not saying I need my hand held, like they didn’t really go super in depth with the red sun, yellow sun stuff, but I got it but still, I would’ve loved more background.

    And I’m confused with the timeline here. Kara left krypton at 13? She got to earth when? Because Clark was already Superman when she got there but in the Superman movie he had only been Superman for what? 2 years? I don’t remember. And supergirl is 23 now? So what happened in those ten years.

    That’s just 2 years since he announced he was Superman so I guess he could’ve technically just not have announced himself to the world yet. Feel like he mentioned Metropolis though so idk.

    “Announced” meaning there was a time where he was perhaps “saving the world” but people didn’t know about who he was?

    I liked it. While I was watching, I kept waiting for the film to become trash and….it just didn’t.

    The film undoubtedly has flaws. Inconsistent CGI, especially in the final act. Ruthye’s actress wasn’t very good. And that needledrop at the end wasn’t a good choice

    But the movie kept me throughly entertained, Milly’s performance was great, and I was invested in Kara’s story from beginning to end. Also I’d love to see a Superman x Supergirl team up movie one day, they have good chemistry

    A lot of the hate for this online feels extremely overblown and performative . It definitely felt like your stereotypical super hero story, but its a cool movie

    7/10

    I mean he did say he never read the comic before making this so I believe it’s his vision lol but most of the hate has been towards Gunn since the reviews came out.

    Wasn’t his vision to adapt the comic it feels like

    They gotta release the list of other songs they considered for that final needle drop

    People be doing too much, the scene was fine and the song is fine, I just don’t get how people are stuck on it

  • It was a good, fun movie. Not bad, not amazing either.

    I wouldve liked more of the flashback tho, her origin was the most interesting part

  • Just not a lot to say about this movie. Matthias was wasted, Krem is a s*** villain.

    Didn’t think Milly was particularly good or even great either. Serviceable. Just the most by the numbers capeshit movie I’ve seen in a while. Very bland looking too.

    Meh.

    Yeah lol

    I read it once around when it came out so I kind of forgot about how exactly Krem's fate went

    But I went back to the ending of the book after the movie and now I'm flabberghasted

    They thought Ruthye killed Krem but being that the story had the framing of the future and this film is all present based they had Kara do it, only to totally avoid the message of stopping the cycle of violence. Even Tom King said Ruthye let him live in the end lmao

    Again I like the film but I'll bet it would've been better received if the ending was closer to the original

    $38M is like whatever at this point. Imo trackers should have been more realistic earlier than later. That Global Box Officr page specially just exaggerated the “strong” presales for weaks

    $68M WW is a complete nightmare. I was thinking $75-80M which is already bad enough. Like that is significantly lower than every famous CBM bomb fans joke about.
