I saw Supergirl 26 last night! My thoughts
>!>This wasn't really a superhero movie. It reminded me more of a space western that happened to have someone superpowered as the protagonist!<
>!>I loved Krem. He's a low stakes villain, he's not plotting galactic domination, but he's as much of a monster here as he was in the comic. I personally liked the Slavic accent because all my family is from Slovakia and I remember the "Wild East" of the 90s when post-Soviet governments were weak and organized crime basically ran everything!<
>!>There should have either been more Lobo or less Lobo. As it was he kinda felt like he showed up when the writers had backed themselves into a corner and needed someone to bail Kara out.!<
>!>The film hit its beats on grief, loss and trauma well. I wish there were fewer Krypton/ Argo City flashbacks because they took me out of the story.!<
>!>Milly was perfect!<
>!It was better than I expected because of the negative buzz, and my wife and I plan to go see it at least once more. I would say solid 7/10 not as good as Superman 25 but still enjoyable.!<
In Arrow (2012-2020), Oliver Queen has a list of the ultra wealthy who have committed horrible crimes. He uses the list to hunt them down and make them face justice. This is our first hint that Arrow is a fantasy series.
Just the stats ma'am
Supergirl literally has more than twice the score of BvS currently. Let that sink in.
Supercav says let dead things stay dead and embrace the future. Just felt like posting this for no reason at all.
Bear, AI and Laziness
Something I caught on my second viewing. When Bear first wants to learn the One Wish Willow, he doesn't actually do any research, or do anything like ask the woman at the store, call the customer service number, or even go to the company website. He uses AI so that he doesn't have to put any effort in to his search. It mirrors him using the OWW to begin with instead of actually talking to Nikki and telling her how he feels. In both instances, he does the quick, easy thing instead of putting any work in.
Just a thought
