This movie is loosely based on Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King with art by Bilquis Evely.

So, a non-simple story, not told in Gunn's simple story-telling style, hopefully more complex and not filled with gag-jokes. The only thing that gives me hope for this is that he is not writing or directing.

Superman set a very low bar so Supergirl should be better... 

Sad but true. I'm really hoping it is better on its own merits rather than just in comparison.

Please be better than Gunn's Superman. Please, please, please PLEASE!!!

I’m kinda doubtful after seeing her character in Superman. She seemed like just a drunken party girl that leaves her dog to go binge some more. But the biggest issue that I had with Superman was that there was no beginning or middle to the story and we just get thrown into the ending. I kinda doubt they’d do that with Supergirl, but I’m hoping her story doesn’t just skip over things and she’s just coming back from getting trashed and picking up her dog as the beginning of the movie

Superman set the bar so low that The Atom had no trouble walking over it at full size reduction.

That's why I am glad Gunn is neither writing or directing, and the story is being based on a widely applauded graphic novel, that this movie should have had the title of. Three things already in its favor. And I think Milly Alcock will be good in the role, and blame her entire showing on Gunn himself.

I have this rule. It is called if the opening of your movie includes somebody pissing, you're in for a bad movie. See Water World for example. I have yet to see the new Superman movie but from what I've seen and read a bunch of monsters and cosmic weird stuff happens in it. I've got problem with superhero movies that bring cosmic chaos to Earth. It is unrealistic in how everyone is pretty much fine afterwards. That stuff is too strange for average people to deal with.  The economy, essential services, law and order would all break in the mass hysteria. Not just in the city happen it but around the entire globe. When your movie take place in outer space you can get weird and it doesn't break the rules of reality. So, I'll give it a point for that.

This might be worse than I thought. Now she’s not just a drunk party girl that neglects her dog, but a depressed mopey drunk party girl that neglects her dog.

 Get the feeling that they keep picking the worst versions of these characters possible rather than giving us the versions of them we all really want to see. Kinda also get the feeling that the side characters are gonna be the best part of the movie again

Don't worry, they make it clear she cleans up her act by the end credits.

Looks like this one will be a streaming release for me, unless I miss it like most of the others I say that about.

Not really excited for it, but I do like the Lobo casting. I’ll probably wait for streaming as well since it just kinda looks like a drunker remake of Guardians of the Galaxy, unless I hear it’s really worth watching. Kinda starting to feel like DC needs another reboot already 

was just wondering if Lobo has his dog in this movie that he was shown with in a lot of the early 90’s comics. They both seem to have awkwardly ill mannered dogs now that Krypto has been raised by a drunk that barely cares about him
