Feel like costume designers are missing the point when this sort of costume isn't even shiny. You don't want shiny when you are hiding in the shadows. This isn't Batman TV from 1966 with brightly lit sets and costumes. Most of the current DC shows use dark sets and dark costumes to hide the action ...

I saw the Supergirl movie when it came out because it was done by the people that did the earlier Superman movies. Like Superman III, it was just making one more in a franchise for money and wasn't a great story like the first two Superman movies. Decent actors and for the time special effects, but ...

At least it's a reasonable request that Kara won't mind doing and probably will enjoy.

I hate a commercial break just when it's getting interesting.

Especially if the show jumps to a different scene after the break.

The speedy gonzales thing got me riled about stereotypes. It's the way the world needs to work for children. Irish men are all leprechauns with a crock of gold, wearing green and a ginger beard, Aussies have corks in their hats and a kangaroo it's how kids start to differentiate countries. When we ...

This episode should have been titled, "Hello, I Must Be Going," just because of all the characters that left and three were brought back just to give them farewell speeches before their exits. Lots of running around in the dark and when they were trying to eliminate light to avoid giving t...

The conic books tried it a few times with alternate costumes that covered Supergirl up, but it never lasted. Thank god!

I still think this is the best of the Arrow'verse shows. They care about continuity and the writers always make references to past events in a show that literally goes back in forth in time. The characters recognized they are idiots and losers, but idiots and losers that get the job done Legend styl...

And the Gingercide continues. True and predictable, but is batgirl's "human form" actually ginger, or is the red hair a wig that's part of the costume? It depends upon the version. The 1960s TV show had a wig, but the comic book and newspaper series made at the same time had it real hair ...

A female version of Mr. Terrific where much like the original series the power pill wears off at the wrong time allowing for peril and being captured. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Terrific_(TV_series) There were all those scenes where the powerless Stanley Beamish frantically tried to reach a b...

I wished it had lasted longer. No real fights, but plenty of peril scenes.

This goes along with Ray Bradbury's explanation of Fahrenheit 451. The book is not about government censorship. Its about self censorship and the protection from harm from differing ideas. Society fractures into so many sub groups, each one offended, that the only thing viewable is nature pictures ...

It's over before they sunk to a new low with the bar already so low. Brought back a lot of old cast members for one last time. Quite a lot of inside jokes like: Helen Slater saying, "You think I was a Kryptonian." and having Alex reply, "Only in a movie." They had all those fight...

I think they tried to have a damsel 5th member on the team in the last season. One of the military guys who was chasing them had a daughter in vietnam or korea and he asked the team to save her and she became part of the team. That was Tia Carrera from Vietnam who supposedly was under contract to a...

WTF is deaf activism? I wear hearing aids and watch TV with the captions on. Haven’t seen the show, but are children going to ice pick their eardrums to be like a character on TV? Probably not.

Third best opening weekend for a movie only behind the two Avenger Infinity War movies. To think Sony didn't want to work with Disney and go it alone. I guess we'll see more sequels.

You need to think about the age of Lois. Here you have a woman who met Superman in her mid 20s as an established reporter and now has twins in high school. That make her in her early 40s. Most woman at that age aren't the sexy versions in the previous shows that were much younger. Sure Teri Hatcher ...

The British TV show The Avengers had Emma Peel (Diana Rigg) in a variety of catsuits and stylish dresses. A favorite was "The Girl fromAuntie" where with her in the skin tight white bird outfit in a gilded cage. The Man from U.M.C.L.E. had Yvonne Craig ,as a guest star, working on her tan ...

As a fan of Westerns, I mourn the fact that so very few of them are made these days. In the 50s and 60s they were everywhere. I wonder if super films will go the same route. Genres go in cycles. When in the 80s they made "The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr." the western movie stuntmen we...

Robley missed a fine opportunity to question WW while her lasso was around her. So many questions he could have asked and made her forget that she told him. Also if you go back to the pilot episode he could have made her do other things,

It was a very weak plot point that Kathy Kane gave her voting rights to Ryan and made her the boss. It would have made more sense to give it to Luke Fox, whose father ran the company for Bruce Wayne, or Mary Hamilton her sister.

For me it's like watching OJ in the Naked Gun movies. I can't help but love the Nordberg character. The optics on Amber are awful right now, but man she looks great in that Mera suit.

It's less the license fee and WB wants to save Batman for more profitable movies. After all Superman didn't appear as more than a back lit blurred figure in Supergirl TV show until after a few seasons. They could do it if they thought the money was there like Disney does with Marvel. Batman's next a...

They are cocky because, except for the Empress of Evil, they are all villains that they have faced and defeated before the series. Even in the Glitter Rock episode part 1, they escape his music by covering their ears as they follow him through his lair.

What's especially embarrassing for our "heroine" is that, Dyna Girl, herself, is usually a totally inept klutz. Dyna Girl was just following the dumb blonde's orders. Just kidding about the stereotype, but in the first episode they walk into the Sorcerer's trap with Electra Woman having D...

There's always direct to video if they want to make some money.

Batgirl had no situational awareness. Come up behind her and she got knocked out or grabbed. You can see in in her first episode where she is taking out Penguin's goons at the start until she got flanked by two thugs in the end after Alfred freed Batman and Robin.

It was meant to be a female , even more kid friendly , version of the Batman 66 TV show. So there was less violence and fight scenes than Batman while keeping the costumes, dialogue, and villains.

The was more action in the movie that Pat and Sylvester were watching.

Maybe they thought they wouldn't show up on video because they were green screened?

Faster, cheaper, and probably the DC future to crank them out. Hopefully the writing will improve.

Visitor

They managed to make the Supergirl TV last season costume look good by coming up with something even worse. Not to mention with a bigger budget they made worse choices on how to make her appear.

Visitor

Give them a chance. They can always do worse.

Shatner might get to direct another one.
