Supergirl Trailer

The first thing that surprised me about this show is that it’s going to be on CBS. I guess I was expecting it to be on the CW because the Flash and Green Arrow were on there as well, but okay. We’ll see how that goes.

That trailer was interesting. It kind of reminded me of Devil Wears Prada a bit because of Ally McBeal being a bitchy boss with an overworked, under-appreciated assistant. That is Ally McBeal, right? Haha. She looks really different.

I wonder what this Supergirl’s origin story is going to be. The only Supergirl experience I have is from the 80s movie and that movie scared little kid me, lol. In that one, Supergirl came from like a small, dark, isolated city somewhere or something. This TV show seems to have Kara escaping from Krypton in a similar fashion as Superman, albeit she’s a bit older.

Overall, this seems kinda like a chick flicky TV series. I’d love to try to watch it, if I had a TV. And the trailer did make it seem like it had a good storyline. I think it will just come down to the writing and whether or not, the actress can play a good Supergirl.

Oh, and I’ve already seen so many comments about how flat-chested she is. Well, humongous, Powergirl boobs aren’t exactly realistically, aerodynamic, are they? Lmao. Grow up.

I know that there’s a lot of complain about in this list, but overall, I like it.

I know this list should be called like Badass Women of Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Comics or something. I know they missed some people,  like Milla Jovovich, Kate Beckinsale, Evangeline Lilly, and others. I know that some of the women on this list kinda shouldn’t be on it, but it’s still an enjoyable list to go through!

  1. Supergirl – Melissa Benoist
    It’s a promo for a new Supergirl show that should be coming out on CBS soon. I’m all for a female superhero show, as long as it’s well made. I don’t know much about Melissa Benoist, but I judge her slightly for being on Glee, lmfao. That being said, I’d still definitely give this show a chance once it comes out. I don’t have TV, but if there’s a will, there’s a way.
  2. Marvel’s Peggy Carter
    I love her. Lol, you’ll hear me say that a lot in this list, btw. I haven’t seen an episode yet, but I’ve heard good things. I was always curious as to what Peggy did after Capt. America “died”. I know I could’ve read the comics –I did wiki– but I usually like movie-verse over comic-verse (Only because comics tend to make things convoluted. Fifty-two multiverses?? Seriously?? LOL, ain’t nobody got time for that.)
  3. Black Widow – Scarlett Johansson
    I hope they make a movie for her. She has enough of a history in the comics to make for a good movie — if done properly. She’s a badass. I love that, lol.
  4. Lucy – Scarlett Johansson
    I didn’t see this movie, to be honest. I saw a trailer and it, as well as the premise, just didn’t do anything for me. I would’ve loved to love it.
  5. Katniss Everdeen – Jennifer Lawrence
    I like Jennifer Lawrence, not sure if I like Katniss though. I never really got into this franchise. However, I will admit that I like Katniss’ strength, in general.
  6. Wonder Woman – Dawn of Justice
    When I first saw the Wonder Woman promo picture, I thought “Hell no, Kim Kardashian???” Lmfao. I’m still not sure about Gadot though. And I’m not sure how well Wonder Woman will be presented in this movie. However, I hope Superman and Batman kick ass. Even though Ben Affleck as Batman is a bit iffy.
  7. Buffy Summers – Sarah Michelle Gellar
    Lol, how could you not watch this show back in the 90s? Granted I was a bit young, I still watch a few episodes. I watched Charmed more. However, I still loved Buffy’s abilities and strength.
  8. Harley Quinn – Margot Robbie
    I have never heard of the Suicide Squad, but when I looked it up, I was interested. The movie will be coming out in 2016 with Jared Leto as the Joker. Harley Quinn has got to be one of my favorite characters. And I think Margot has the look for her, I hope she can act the part as well. I’ve  always liked chaotic characters.
  9. Xena – Lucy Lawless
    Haha , I liked watching Xena when I was little. Some things were too graphic and freaked me out because I was a kid, but I loved how she could just kick anyone’s butt!! Greek god or not lol. I’d throw around a Frisbee, pretending to be a warrior princess!
  10. Ripley – Sigourney Weaver
    I thought she was an amazing character. Flaws, sure, but the movies were really enjoyable.
  11. Princess Leia – Carrie Fisher
    I have a lot of conflicted feelings about Princess Leia, but one thing I have to admit is that she really has a commanding voice and authority. We’ll see how Episode VII goes XD
  12. Sarah Connor – Linda Hamilton
    I liked the Terminator movies from the 80s/90s. I really don’t know what to think about this whole reboot thing they have coming out soon that rewrites the WHOLE THING.
  13. Trinity – Carrie-Anne Moss
    I always found her character to be very annoying and I’m not sure why.
  14. Uhura – Nichelle Nichols/Zoe Saldana
    Sigourney Weaver had parodied this character in Galaxy Quest (<–a must see movie BTW). And the character’s main role was to repeat what the computer said, lol. That being said, I love Star Trek. Star Trek >Star Wars. Uhura was great 🙂
  15. Orphan Black – Sarah Manning
    I don’t plan on watching this show ever, lol. I’m sure it’s a great show, but it just did not appeal to me. Maybe I just think it’s too dark for me.
  16. The X-Files – Scully
    I am way too young to remember much of this show. But I love the concept. I might go back and try to watch this show.
  17. Lois Lane – Margo Kidder
    In all honesty, the old superman movies scared me, hahaha. There was just some elements that freaked me out!! That being said, I did like Christopher Reeve as Superman. Not too sure about Margot Kidder though.
  18. Starbuck – Katee Sakhoff
    I tried to watch Battlestar Galactica once, but it got too confusing, lol. I do like Katee Sackhoff though. And the storyline for Battlestar Galactica is actually very interesting.
  19. Michonne – Danai Gurira
    I don’t like watching zombie TV shows and flicks. The only one I ever liked was Shaun of the Dead. It was hilarious. However, zombie flicks, in general, just leave me in a bad mood. However, I love the Michonne wields a katana, lol.
  20. Hermione Granger – Emma Watson
    Big Harry Potter nerd here. Gotta love Hermione. She was annoying and bossy, but the girl knew her stuff and she knew how to get things done! 🙂 I’m more of a Luna Lovegood personality, but I’ve always been prepared like Hermione.
  21. Catwoman – Michelle Pfeiffer
    Michelle was kinda nutty in her role, but I still choose her over Halle (I kinda liked Halle for Storm in X-Men, but I think they could’ve picked someone with a better commanding leadership presence for Storm).
  22. Leela
    Haha, Turganga Leela! I love Futurama. Leela was kinda annoying, but she was still pretty badass XD
  23. Game of Thrones – Daenerys
    I don’t watch this show and I might just be slightly biased towards if because I feel like, being the big LOTR nerd he is, Martin took too much from Tolkien’s Silmarillion history to use as the history of his own Game of Thrones storyline. *shrug* Also, I don’t really agree with all the gratuitous sex scenes and rape. That being said, Daenerys is a very strong character and I hope that either she or Tyrion or Jon Snow become king or whatever. I love the dragons.
  24. Firefly – Mal
    This show has been in my Netflix queue for a while now. I need to find time to watch it since everyone seems to love it!
