Between Superman (2025) and Supergirl (2026) I've actually begun to believe that live action superhero movies can be something I actually genuinely enjoy.

They're both SO GOOD!!!!

Me when Supergirl convinces the 13 year old not to kill the irredeemable villain because it would retraumatize her: yeah ok fair enough :/

Me when Supergirl kills the irredeemable villain herself the second Ruthye’s back is turned, thus ending the cycle of abuse without involving the terrified grieving child: YEAH OK FAIR ENOUGH :D

[crowindisguise]

i really really loved how the supergirl 2026 movie subverted the 'if you kill them ur no better then them' trope, i loved that the conflict was not that he doesnt deserve to die but rather that ruthye deserves to not have to kill him, that she is just a child and should not have to carry that burden along with everything she had already been through. i really loved how kara killing him recontextulizes her actions leading up to that moment, how it becomes clear that it was never her intention to let him live, but to keep ruthye safely away from the fight.

ive always disliked the anti revenge narrative because sometime people do just do things that are unforgivable and wont be stopped by the current system, but here kara never said ruthye should forgive him, but rather that ruthye deserved to live on and it is made far more impactfull by the fact that it is in the same fight where kara accepts the suit and truly becomes supergirl. superman is the shield, supergirl is the sword, supergirl fights so girls like ruthye dont have to.

I think it was not only fine but important for Kara to be de-supered for most of the movie.

1) She wasn’t superpowered on Argo. She was exactly the same as she was on any other red sun planet except sicker. Unlike Clark, she didn’t grow up super. This is what her body normally feels like to her. Being super on Earth is new and unnatural to her.

2) She’s in a state of mental anguish, disassociation, and grief and is self-medicating through that with her dog and alcohol and guess what? Alcohol doesn’t work on Earth or any other yellow sun system.

3) The point of the movie is that you have to choose to be good and kind, and that it’s hard, and that also being good and kind does not look the same for everyone. For Kara, making that choice also meant choosing to become sober in the face of her depression and alocholism, which is extremely difficult for any alcoholic. She needed something beyond Ruthye’s plea to force her into action, and that was putting her best friend and emotional support animal’s life in jeopardy. Nothing else was enough to motivate her.

4) Relapsing is extremely common and expected. The dual sun planet mimicked the way that you can start feeling better on your antidepressants and then get hit out of nowhere with another wave of it. It’s awful. But guess what? There’s still hope if you wait it out.

5) The fights in the movie progressed from seeking to self-harm (she enjoyed the physical novelty of being hurt on Ruthye’s planet when she fought the thief) to preventing hurt (to Ruthye’s childhood and psyche and the girls who would have been trafficked had she not ended the bandit ring), which is also a journey of acceptance of her new powers. She goes from resenting having them because they are inextricably related to the death of her family and people, to accepting that she has the power to do real good and prevent other people hurting the way she is.

It wasn’t anti-feminist or bad writing to have her “normal” for so much of the story. It was essential to her character growth.

LAUGHING WHEN SHE LOSES BLOOD PUKING ALL OVER THE PLACE. SHE SAVES CHILD BRIDES AND KILLS A GUY WITH A SWORD THROUGH THE THROAT. I STAY WINNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[willowwhirll]

The way Supergirl fights means she can just so easily kill a human and I doubt she has mastered or maybe even tried to control that strength. Which is why she is so perfect to have a story in space where she is weakened and faces off against stronger species. This is also why Superman is perfect for Earth because all hes learned his whole life is how to control his powers, he never goes all out because he knows how weak people can be. So if he ever went to space he'd probably get his ass kicked, but on Earth hes the perfect safe, diplomatic superhuman. While Supergirl would go all out and suplex someone's skull into the ground.

Superman: to defeat you I am going to punch you. Maybe laserbeam you. Maybe, if you're particularly bad, run you through a few buildings.
