With how good Superman turned out it will only help with Supergirl IMO.   I don't expect huge box office numbers, but if the DCU can be steady with the quality of it's movies then it'll bring in more over time.  Plus I expect the TV shows on HBO Max to be solid as well.

A good sign is that Supergirl filming has ended and it is now in post-productions; editing, visual effects, etc. Such an extended period improves the odds it'll be a quality production. The cast is good, so we're down to the script and direction.

Grew up with Superman in the 80s and did not like the original Supergirl (1984) movie. Tried to get into Supergirl on CW but I stopped watching halfway through the first season. I can't remember exactly what it was that stopped me, but that was it for me. Watched all of Superman on CW, liked it a lot even though the last season or two got too mushy for my liking.

It's odd that Superman got a rating of 7.8 and only got 4 seasons, whereas Supergirl is rated at 6.2 and got 6 seasons!

They were shite, movies and tv, they've always cast well though. I've always liked the supergirls actresses but the stories portrayed have been terrible. Shame because supergirl comics have had good stories.. hopefully the new one will be better

Since it's Gunn in control and he knows his comics inside and out I don't worry about the scripts.  They're pulling from one of the best Supergirl comics out there for the movie, I expect it'll turn out good.

From what read is that a) DC didn't want two different Supermans running at the same time (find that excuse BS) and b) CW didn't want to continue with superhero shows anymore.

Speaking as someone who doesn't read comics and is not a Marvel fan. I didn't mind some of the early movies, but after a few I got bored. I do actually like the occasional DC movie and I do like the old Superman & Batman films. I even didn't mind Superman 2025, it was decently entertaining and fun.

This looks utterly awful. She seems so unlikeable, just a pile of cringeworthy memes slapped together into a character.

But I am definitely not the target audience.

supergirl should be super cute, not ..someone available and cheap actress in California (or even cheaper bring her from australia)

People who know the comic the movie is based off of will understand her personality in the trailer.  The plot of the movie will explain it and her growth.  Some of you need to relax.   Good movies can have bad trailers and terrible movies can have great trailers.  You won't know which is which till you actually see the movie.

So they definitely got HER right, I shall await the rest of the movie to fill in some of the detail.

Single, lonely nerd comments on female's appearance in a comic-book adaptation it's almost memeworthy if it wasn't so sadly pathetic.

....Krypto was the best part of Superman (the movie was otherwise boring and the story itself was dumb, IMO). 

Not sure about this one either...looks like just another run of the mill superhero movie.  Perhaps it's just fatigue...

Krypto is a good CGI boy though.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
    • With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.
    • Like the article stated, it's written completely from scratch, unlike the umpteen Chromium clones. It got its start as the browser built-in to the also written-from-scratch SerenityOS.
