I think Femina said it best when she said that "as long as their are comic book superheroines there will be SHIP". I have heard comments here and there about SHP being a dying genre and the one thing missing from these posts are actual numbers and metrics. From the dawn of this genre we ha...

You have certainly made a lot of good points. The weakness early in the series is clearly how they present the family storylines which are fairly boring and mundane storylines. I also agree that they did not do a good enough job in fleshing out his character before he assumed the Presidency. In term...

I just feel as thought there is too much product period. I think there are a number of studios out there doing great work but I just think that the studios that mass produce product and do not space out their releases enough undercut the great work they are doing by just laying out one film on top o...

I discovered my fetish for SHP pre-Internet era through the Lynda Carter Wonder Woman series Bushwackers episode where WW is arrested by crooked cops and debelted. Here is my take on the state of SHP films from an ordinary joe like me. I imagine that it takes a lot of time, preparation and energy, n...

I am glad you prevailed upon him to change it in his advertising poster. I think that in some small way that validates Geeky's position. Would that change have occurred if Geeky had not spoken out about this subject? By the way, I think that name calling by producers or moderators is not a very cons...

You want to start this again, ok. Hot girl on girl action denotes lesbian sex and if you choose not to believe me, google search, Bing search, or the Urban Dictionary definition I don't know what to tell you. It must be a conspiracy! You didn't coin the phrase pal. I do not waste my "precious t...

It is certainly true that Trump does not work with the international community. I think that as Americans, we must face some unpleasant facts of life. Regardless of whom is in the oval office, America has far less influence in the world compared to thirty or forty years ago. Unless we are going to d...

You have mis understood - the evidence in how poorly constructed the plot is the implausibility of the opening episode. Thats irrefutable. It is also irrefutable that almost every show in the history of American television is based on implausibility of plots and scenarios. Suspension of disbelief. ...

bushwackerbob

Well it's nice to know America's not the only country imploding on itself. Or wait... is that nice? *Sigh* It's time to put on my "The End is Near" sign and mill around downtown isn't it? Cheer up. Our countries have survived world wars, civil wars, been on the brink of nuclear annihilati...

Fascinating. I feel like I am getting a real education in the inner workings of the British politics. I mean I have a general surface knowledge of what is going on there in regards to Brexit, but as a neophyte I would like to know what you Brits think of Brexit as it concerns the issue of immigration.

Wow, nine years. I really admire people who set goals for themselves and then dedicate themselves to accomplishing said goals. Really impressive. Too often these days you hear of people who do not challenge themselves because of the fear of failure, for fear that they are not up to the task and here...

1. Beauty of the model 2. Costume and sh character (mostly SG, then WW, then lookalikes) 3. Hair well done, make-up, nails polished. 3. Peril I don't like tattoos at all. I know its silly what I am saying, but I really like the model to look decent. I hate how how most of them have done augmentatio...

Sorry if I am annoying anyone in regards to resurrecting this old topic but I was not a forum member when this film was released. This is one of my favorite SHP films of all time. I found it to be a very sexy, intimate film with the heroine and villain almost enveloped into a perverted, twisted danc...

bushwackerbob

I share everybody's lament on here in regards to the lack of Supergir's peril on the show and think that the show would obviously be better if they showed her vulnerabilities more. I do think that it would bring more captivating drama. I do wonder though that considering our forum's affinity for SHP...

""I’ve kind of grown with this character," says Benoist, who originally played Supergirl on CBS before the show was moved to The CW. "It took me a long time to actually feel that strength [of being a superhero]. I feel like if you don’t feel it from the inside out, it’s not goin...

I bet you are a secret Trump guy as well LOL. You are not offering evidence, just a mere opinion, and expanding on that opinion for your "evidence". You are not proving anything. Unless you write for the friggin Game of Thrones or the Sopranos, I will value the people who actually get paid...

bushwackerbob

In a way this is a silly conversation, everybody likes what they like and me trying to convince you that a show you clearly do not like is a great show is a stupid, pointless exercise on my part. Really foolish. The point I should have been making all along is of the question of whether 24 is a grea...

The Wire is excellent, I am just making my way into season 2. You do not enjoy most American television, fair enough, to each their own. At least I know where you are coming from now. Many of my examples were dramas not fantasy, you did not address them. I guess we are really talking about cultural ...

bushwackerbob

You talk about it being poorly written but it won the 2004 Golden Globe and the 2006 U.S Prime Time Emmy Award for best drama. Badly written crap? 24 in retrospect was one of the most important shows in FOX history in that the show gave them mainstream credibility both for critics and the fact that...

I know that this is probably a generational thing, but I cannot envision myself vegging out in front of a screen for eight hours. I think I would go mad. I know someone who actually binged the whole season of 24 (24 episodes) in one setting! I could never do that. Yeah, me too normally. I did see t...

That is too bad about Brandon Routh and Courtney Ford. I thought that Routh's Ray Palmer was very funny, and that sense of humor will be missed. Ford's Nora grated on me at first but she kind of grew on me. Fun fact that I was not aware of: Routh and Ford are husband and wife.

This is what happens when you have so much media consolidation, you get this giant behemoth company such as Disney, and they can basically say a big FU to the fandom out there with no real fear of reprisal. I mean they will suffer in regards to the PR battle, but in essence they are basically untouc...

Whilst it isnt with a powered heroine , that precise scenario is covered in a Dungeon story TSA NABS BATGIRL, where she is trapped by the legal situation she finds herself in, forced to comply and then realizes its an actual trap too late https://www.superheroineforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=39&a...

I would love to see a story where a superheroine who does not have the ability to fly, is in this dangerous country overseas, is at the airport intending to leave when she has to take off her power belt at the metal detector station. After a lot of back and forth with airport security, she ultimatel...

I think I liked it more than you did, I thought it was an enjoyable film. Plot, what plot? I do not remember enjoying a film with this thin a plot in my entire life. I agree that the strength of the film was in the performances of the two leads DiCaprio and Pitt. Perhaps one of the reasons I might e...

I thought this show and its actors were better than you gave them credit for, bb, and in general, enjoyed the show enough to watch it all the way through. I never followed Kiefer in the series "24" and I may have to go back and watch that now. Yes, the ending was a bit of a letdown to see...

I have heard a couple people mention this show in passing and I am wondering what people thought of the show in general and the final season that was recently released on Netflix. For the most part on social media the response we usually get is either an emphatic thumbs up or down. For me it was a g...

Trump at this moment is probably trying to figure out where in Greenland to put his new Trump hotel and golf course.

BWB,
The edict is about calling EACH OTHER names. If anyone wants to say anything about a non board member, have at.

Are we sure that Dazzle 1 is not Trump? Just kidding.

bushwackerbob

Gee, I thought there was an edict a little while back about rising above name calling on this board. I guess none of us (including me) are perfect. I still can not fathom how a man who elicits this kind of passionate hatred (my Mom used to call him pussgutt) actually might possibly win a second term...

Peace is a dangerous animal unfortunately due primarily to human nature. You can't make peace with everyone, because some people are to untrustworthy to make peace with. Inevitably when an optimist draws up a peace accord with Atilla the Hun, the Hun is eventually going to swoop in and sack the cit...

Some of your points relate to personal foibles and not about policy or of any substance. Does that really matter in the grand scheme of things? In regards to the North Korean rocketman, I know that it is a long shot, but if his buddying up with Un makes North Korea less of a nuclear threat is it no...

so back to the eyes wide shut movie....wow...I had to watch that when I saw it mentioned here and hell yes!!! that is insane....then read the conspiracy theories...it was like a documentary to what has been going on for years revealed in the form of entertainment and fiction...of course i am sure t...

The New York Times reported in December of 2016 that more than half of white females voted for Trump. If the New York Times says it, it must be true. LOL That is true. I quoted that statistic. 52% of White women voted Trump. Earlier, you said "Did you know that in the category of educated wome...

I'm disappointed at how off track the topic has become. It was about Epstein , a self confessed bad guy with links to powerful and influential people. The idea of innocent until proven guilty is barely applicable to this guy. He already got tossed in the slammer for soliciting a minor, so the innoc...

For a moderate conservative like me, it is really hard in this world to escape the overwhelming influence of the liberal dominated mainstream media (msm) with ABC news, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, NY Times, and an overwhelming majority of newspapers in this country. There really is no escaping it's influ...

You were absolutely right - that was and IS how the world views his presidency. The man tells an aver...

Don Lemon, Anderson Cooper, Fredo Cuomo, and Jim Acosta. These are the faces of CNN.

There was a fairly good story on this genre by Literotica.com called Blue Bolt Meets the Colonel where the Iraqi? Colonel gets a hold of a virtual reality mind control device, captures the superheroine and all sorts of fun ensue.

With all due respect, one side of the American political divide operates on facts, and the other side operates on something else.

Some on previous threads have made the argument (I disagreed) that superheroines are not necessarily bound by a country's laws, that they go by their own moral code, so they would think nothing of violating international law. That said, I love a lot of the above ideas and think that they would be gr...

This is an interesting premise. What first comes to mind is a scantily-clad heroine (maybe) SG being set up by a villain in Iran (or some fictitious extreme Muslim country) for a stoning due to the scandalous nature of her outfit, and the villain has arranged for those stones to be encrusted with k...

One of the common denominator causes in conflicts such as these are that one side has one set of facts or "truth" and the other side has its set of facts and "truth". There seems to be a dearth of objective reporting these days. Everybody seems to live in their little bubbles wit...

Either way GOOD RIDDANCE. Now focus on those who supported him. Good point, but lets learn from the false accusations of the Kavanaugh hearing and the men ruing by lies of the Me Too movement and get it right.

Crazy things happen in jails and prison. I worked in the legal system, and have heard of defendants killing themselves soon after being released from suicide watch. Jails and prisons also give false information to cover up mistakes. My local jail released an inmate when they weren't suppose to, and...
