calm down, bloody hell.

"youre not always nice but youre kind and youre not always perfect but youre good" is the perfect analysis of supergirl's character and its such a beautiful message for young women

I LOVE that Kara’s scream after she failed to get the antidote on Bilquis was silent because sound can’t travel through space! Like yes it’s an emotional scene and was probably just a stylistic choice but also like!! They had physics!!! And she knew if she screamed on that planet with a yellow sun she’d decimate the area!!!! So she went up to space!!!!!

I remember right after the Superman movie come out everyone was making the “Clark saved Lex’s life by saving Krypto before Kara ever found out” jokes and its absolutely fantastic to me how supergirl 100% confirmed that to be true. Lex doesn’t even KNOW how lucky he is that he got the emotionally stable super

AND ANOTHER THING about Supergirl is that I was really worried the movie would be all “take the high ground” about killing human traffickers and shit, but then at the end Kara just fucking stabs that guy TWICE and I realized the movies actually about cycles of abuse and protecting the innocent

I LOVE how Kara’s hair just goes everywhere in this film. It’s whipping around at the bus, it’s freezing in a mess around her head in space, it’s draped over her head and hiding her face from vomit. It so satisfying to watch! And then her final sun moment where it’s flowing majestically in the wind really fits how she’s stepping into her hero shoes!!!

Of course they don’t like Milly Alcock’s Supergirl. She’s a grown ass woman with zero love interests who spends the movie saving her dog, casually dismantling a sex trafficking ring while she’s at it, and preaching the importance of being good, not nice or smiley or cheerful but good. I for one adored the movie and I really hope I’ll get to see more of Alcock’s Supergirl she’s now my favorite iteration of her and I love her so dearly.

Kara who saw her parents wither away. Kara who carries the grief of an entire planet. Kara who doesn't share that grief with her cousin, because she thinks he could never understand. Kara who holds Krypto like her heart, because he is the only piece of her Krypton that is still alive. Kara who will tarnish her soul so Ruthye doesn't have to. Kara who has every reason to scream, cry and break things, but chooses to stay and make Earth her home because she also has many reasons to find again the happiness she lost. That is a Kara that I love.
