one of the funniest scenes in supergirl is when ruthye is saying her speech to lobo, despite being told not to go up to him, and you see kara mockingly mouthing along to it behind them 😭 they’re so rude big sister and annoying little sister coded lmao

One of the things I found so interesting walking away from Supergirl 2026 is how the movie portrays Kara’s use of her powers. With Clark they always feel innate, part of him, like they are him. He is Superman because of his powers. Kara meanwhile treats them as this rad tool she now suddenly gets to use to make her invincible. And she can turn them on and off just by going to a different solar system! You can feel her struggle with home and identity in each and every aspect of her usage and that makes the fact that they are powers so visceral. Again, we’re all used to Kryptonite and red suns as comic fans but I feel like this movie helps showcase the powers as mere tools because they are. It’s the person who makes the powers. Yes she’s Supergirl but she’s actually Kara Zor-El of Krypton and Argo and when she’s around a yellow sun she has powers she can use to do some good.

Supergirl (2026) is about girls and daughters and women. It's about messy girls, vulnerable girls, strong girls, scared girls. And, last but not least, it's about girls protecting girls. And it's all important.
