^ Go throw your tantrum to the easily impressed, as that is certainly not me. It isn't my problem that the truth hurts you so much. Learn to deal with it and stop being such a thin-skinned puss over it. I mean, my points still stand after you chimed in with nothing but a temper tantrum as a rebuttal.
Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

i have to disagree. I say Batman & Robin make Superman 3, 4, and Super Return and Supergirl look like genius. That's not to say they ARE geniusthey just look the part due to Batman & Robin
so i really think Batman & Robin is the worst movie ever atleast in the Superhero realm anyways. -

I think that we need to realize that, like all films, there will be fans and there will be haters. There's really no point in trying to bring a fan to hate a film and vice versa. The film medium was formulated to be subjective, and the basis of its appeal is the fact that it continues to be open to interpretation. Did I hate Supergirl? No. Did I think it was a masterpiece? No. But I enjoyed it for what it was: a popcorn flick which combines the trials of adolescence with the strength and steel of a super-being. If people love it, fine. If people hate it, fine. But my opinion rests.

It's an entertaining flick and the villains are far more likeable than the ones in Superman 4, which, as much as it hurts me to say, was an idiotic movie.
Superman III is an ok movie and would have been much better with less screen time for Richard Pryor. -

I suggest you look other places than Supergirl if you wish to be seen as philosophical. I am sorry, but a handful of devotees to a 1984 movie just isn't impressive by any stretch of the imagination, and certainly not worth anyone's time. The fact that your signature is a quote from the movie says it all.
Oh for God's sake then get away if these "handful" of fans are boring you. No one is asking you to be here. All you are doing is looking for a fight. Your methods of argument and your tactic of conquering are subpar at best. There is a reason no one is listening to you. Get lost.

More like there's no point. But that's okay, keep holding up your manufactured reality! We all do it anyway, so no need to be a hypocrite about it.

It's not even the worst superhero movie. It's current rating is ahead of Man-Thing, The Return of Swamp Thing, RoboCop 3, Superman IV, Batman and Robin, Catwoman, and Steel.
I liked it. Not great, but there are worse ways to kill an hour or two. -

Makes Superman 3 and 4 look like genius.
Actually I'm opposite. As cheesy as Supergirl is, somehow I thought it was better than Superman 3 and especially 4! Just wish more things had been explained throughout, and that Superman had made an appearance. -

Superman 3 & 4 were both awful. All of the Batman flicks post-Returns/pre-Dark Knight were inane. Catwoman (still don't understand the point, since they told her story better in "Batman Returns"), Daredevil, the original Captain America, the unreleased Fantastic 4, the Hulk and Spider-Man TV movies, Generation X (with Matt Frewer badly channeling Jim Carey). I could go on and on listing superhero films which were infinitely worse than Supergirl.
That's not to say it's perfect because it's certainly not. The pace is plodding (to say the least) and Kara's character rarely rises above two-dimensional (no disrespect to Slater, as the problems were in the writing, not with her performance) but there's plenty of memorable moments, great special effects (many of which hold up remarkably well) and a tour-de-force performance by Dunaway (which is best seen in the full scenery-chewing 138 min version). Should note that if you've only seen the US version prior to its 2000 DVD release, there was a substantial chunk of story removed.
There are plenty of films I could easily label "the worst," and plenty of Godawful missteps in the superhero film genre, but while this might not be the best of 'em, it's not the worst by a longshot.
