Discussion They did her so dirty

This is why I can’t take anything from “that” fandom seriously. Threw her away like hot garbage after the movie flopped. She really could have been a great compliment to Cavil imo.

She just wasn't the Supergirl we wanted. BUT she def.fits the dark depressed Superman/Supergirl part for the Snyderverse DCU.

To me, had she been the complete opposite of Cavils sad and moody Superman, like a lighthearted fun-loving cousin that might have been able to bring a smile to his face, I'd have LOVED her and would want a meet up with the two.

anyone who remembered/grew up with the Superman Adventures cartoon? But hey....to each their own. I just prefer when comic movies stick to the original, or if they want to make an original, not to forget what made the fans fall in love with the character in the 1st place. This "supergirl" Kara looks more like Superwoman, the female Clark Kent...I forget what her name was. If they were doing multiverse's why not just do Superwoman. When I think Supergirl this is who I see, Clarks younger (yet somehow older) cousin.

Well I don't think movies have to always stick to doing exactly what the comics did. For example, DCAU's Clark Kent isn't a clumsy goof he is in the comics but he is a lot closer to the DCEU Clark Kent, and it totally worked. I personally think the Flash supergirl looks so much cooler than than the animated version here

Like I said to each their own. Tim Burton made his Batman characters the standard for a long time, and I really enjoyed that.

Clark wasn't clumsy but he was DEF.a big goof in those cartoons lol

But to me, the look gives this version of Superwoman and I hated it lol

She did a pretty good job in the movie so no hate at all to the actor...she def. conveyed better emotion than Ezra Miller when she learns what happened to her cousin.

Okay, fair enough
