I rewatch the show when im going through it and i have cried almost every episode of season 1 so far and WHY AM I BAWLING OVER THIS SCENE AGAIN.. Holy crap i love Melissa's acting i cannot see her as anyone but supergirl / Kara Danvers.
Been a while since I’ve seen the show, but if I remember correctly I disliked season 6 the most.
Super basic question, but yeah - what stories do you wish had happened during the show. This could be short one offs or longer story arcs throughout the series.
Long story short my ex-girlfriend made the entire planet f*cking uninhabitable to my species so I had to skedaddle. For context, she was in a war against my terrorist parents. She sent me off in a pod, into outer space, where I got stuck in a wormhole and sent to the future, but I still love her anyway. Never thought I'd see her again, so I settled down with a nice woman (current wife). However, my wife schemed behind my back to take me back in time, where my ex-girlfriend is, for a mission (story time later). Obviously I still love my ex and when I'm around her, I can't help but emotionally cheat on my wife. AITA?
I didn't like the plot with future Mon-El from the beginning, but as I kept watching, I realized I disliked the show itself for more reasons. The drama doesn't make as much sense, the characters seem more one dimensional, it just overall felt very different to me. It's validating to know my suspicions were right and the directors changed, but now I'm depressed because I thought I had more seasons of a show I was genuinely enjoying. Anyone else?
edit: I didn't realize why the executive producer (not director) was fired, the reason is definitely valid. This was my first time looking into the supergirl fan base/behind the scenes, thanks everyone for explaining!
Which live action pairing do you think is the most compatible?
The figure arrived in the mail today. I’m so happy to have a 7” scale figure of her to add to my Superman shelf.
The images may be out of order for some reason, but the point is the numbers...
This is pathetic.
A clustering storm producing lightning strikes of over 1,000MJ is not a disaster. That's just a regular thunderstorm.
Joule Kilojoule - Thousand Js Megajoule - Million Js Gigajoule. - Billion Js Terajoule - Trillion Js
For reference. A medium apple has about 418.4kJ. 10 medium sized apples have 4.18MJ of caloric energy. Keep that in mind.
A singular lightning strike reacbing from sky to ground averages around 1 to 5 billion joules, so 1 to 5GJ. Alex said that's "50x" the average strike. Okay, so, in Alex's mind, Lightning only reaches ~20MJ. So lightning only has the energy equivalent to 50 f*cking apples in CW Supergirl.
In reality, CW lightning would be 5x to 200x less powerful than REAL lightning. 1 Gigajoule is roughly ¼ tons of TNT. 5 gigajoules would be 1 ton of TNT. In explosion terms. That's building level, it just happens within an instant and it's electrical rather than explosive.
What's worse is that they doubled down on it with Lena bringing up an 800MJ lightning bolt as if that shouldn't be any different from being outside during rain, but she makes it out to be a catastrophe.
It only takes a simple Google search, the writers don't have to know physics to actually check their numbers. To put this Into perspective. The amount of TNT you's need to reduce one city block to rubble is about 11 tons of TNT. Or 10 to 45GJ. Which, according to this, would be 45x the oh so dangerous lighting we see in that episode. I bring this up because Livewire got her powers from a normal lightning storm and apparently in CW, the average lightning bolt carries 20MJ of energy, and Livewire threatens Suprgirl. It makes both of them look pathetic for DC terms.
This literally makes Supergirl look like she'd get packed up by Spider-Man because Spidey regularly beats people who can EASILY level city blocks. CW what the f*ck were you guys doing, first the characters, then the math the characters rely on 💀💀💀.
The link is a source about her talking about the divorce/split
When I looked into it and saw how long they would be married, I looked up the age difference and it turns out they met when Chyler was 16 while he was 20, then - as ENews! said - tied the knot three years later. I find it odd and a little bit disturbing. Maybe that’s just my opinion and others could dismiss it as “oh, times were different then” but it's still icky
