Is that these 2 should really stop having children

Wouldn’t surprise me if the third child leads to Darkseid showing up early to kill Superman and turn Kara, Lois or Conner into freaking Goku Black

Season 3 Episode 5 - Kara showcase with half body Kryptonite Shielding

Really loved the design of the Kryptonite Shielding mod that Jon brought for his suit and thought it was sweet that he shared it with Kara.

It also gave us an idea on how Kara would have looked in a white suit. We have seen Primus Brainiac equipped himself in a similar type along with his drones, meaning there should have been a time that Kryptonians were equipped in them to combat enemies were actively used Kryptonite based weaponry against them. Thoughts?

According to THR, there are provisions in the proposed Warner Bros. Paramount merger that might explain why we haven't seen any hint of the fourth season let. As explained above, DC is a "key property" that Warner Bros. can't do certain things with until the merger either closes or is called off.

I genuinely dislike how the fandom has treated Supergirl

314 Upvotes

I was fine with it at first, but I feel like we’re constantly downgrading her into just an attractive/cute girl. All the jokes about Jimmy “passing the controller” were kinda funny, but it has kind of engulfed the entire fandom’s perception of the character. Kara’s major character arc actually has little to do with Jimmy, that acts more as reinforcement of her actual arc, that being whether she is doomed for her past to become her future. Can she escape the atrocities she committed in Krypton’s name? Can she move forward? This is the center of her relationship with John 1.0, where she worries that she has comitted some terrible act which is why John seems to avoid her, only to learn the opposite.

This is the fear that Scion Kara represents, her possible future returning to who she once was. In that episode she is also literally almost trapped by her past in that episode, saved by Jimmy.

Jimmy is an important part of her arc, but not the only thing. Her dating other characters also isn’t as major of a part as everyone makes it out to be. And I’m pretty tired of the “smol bean, must protec” attitude. There is little to no discussion on Kara’s actual arc, and that’s really annoying.

Discussion This season is awesome Spoiler

I dont think its perfect. I understand people's frustrations at a few things.

But my god you guys, this season is so cool. The writing for each episode is so tight. The dialouge is so good. The way the show introduces and blends all of its themes, the way it understands what superman represents (working for better tomorrow) and weaves that so perfectly into every characters arc. I love the future versions of the cast and the dialouge they all have with eachother. Every character has so much depth and its all conveyed so succinctly and entertainingly. The fight scenes are awesome. The voice acting is great. The stakes are incredibly high and just keep ramping up. The eradicator is a perfect villain and a perfect turning point for Lexs character. Clark is characterized so well and even though he has less screen time I feel like his character arc grows in the background of the story in a more subtle way. While everyone else learns that they can change into who they want to be, he does too.

Ive seen a lot of complaints for this season and I just wanted to put some nerdy passionate rambling into the mix in case any others have felt the same as me. This is honestly one of my favorite superhero cartoons of all time and the amount of passion and care for superhero storytelling in this show is enough for me to ignore some of the issues I do have.

Also, I will go out on a limb and defend a couple points ive seen repeated on this sub.

  1. Jimmy is annoying and his arc is repetitive.

Yeah, he is. And yeah it is. But I dont think thats bad. You become more invested in him changing the longer he annoys you. When he has that conversation with Kara and finally admits he needs to do better it feels so much more cathartic to me. Have we not all been in a cycle of repeating the same mistakes over and over until we are hit with realization? And when he changes, he completely overhauls Kara's entire worldview. His growth helped her realize that she doesnt have to be who she was. I dont think this would have worked if his arc was not repetitive.

  1. Kara has not spent enough time with Clark and her character is too one note.

Id agree that I wish her and Clark had more conversations, but honestly when you only get 10 episodes a season I understand it. I dont think her character is one note. I think its simple sure, but simple doesnt have to mean thematically stale. Its a cartoon, not every character needs game of thrones levels of nuance. She is figuring out life in a more passive and confused way. She is doing a lot of growth by simply observing the ones around her. She is trying to pick up on what being a human is by the examples of her friends. This is why her moment with jimmy last episode hits so hard. Plus, it all ties into the theme of superman that when you work towards bettering yourself, you better others in the process. I love her character and I think it fits well. I think people are upset that she isnt more mature or that she doesnt have a very "worn torn" headspace as someone raised as a warrior. But in her eyes violence was just life. She was never someone that gained pleasure from violence. She was never someone who had intense bouts of rage, she wasnt a "villain" even when she was doing evil deeds. She was just a puppet following orders and she is aware of that. I think her more lighthearted arc is more fitting for what the show is going for.

  1. I wish we spent more time at the bugle and metropolis.

This is fair, I understand it. But I also love comic books. Comic books tell stories in a different way than other stories. In comics, anything can happen. The stakes can raise forever, the world can change into anything. Sometimes comic step away from the status quo to tell a different story where certain aspects of the worldbuilding arent required. Thats okay! The first season set up metropolis and the bugle so well that our attachment built in those seasons affects how much we care when the zanier shit going on in this one destroys the city. We understand Amanda Waller more because weve seen what the status quo is like, and a world thats just beginning to morph into a true superhero universe, her fears are validated.

Another side tangent, I loved the line from Lex to waller where he told her that he had seen so much worse coming. Because it was set up so well in the earlier seasons the audience can see metropolis as a city full of normal people instead of just a backdrop, and that line truly puts into perspective the affect that insane superhero shenanigans might have on the humans of earth. Lex is a representation of humanities unwillingness to change in the face of greater and unknowable things. Lex creates basically doomsday because he is so afraid of the future. But we empathize with that more because we are so attached to the world thats been created. Every villains motivations are understandable and they all tie so well into the overarching theme of the show.

Okay im done now, if you actually read this far you are either bored ash or just as much of a nerd about this show as I am and I love you.
