At a local theater playing "Supergirl" the "p" had fallen out of the name
and the sign read "Suergirl"

After seeing the movie I don't thing the missing letter was an accident.  
This movie really belongs in the sewer, great legs or not!

I've been reading all these slurs against Supergirl, an obviously outstanding
motion picture event, and I cannot just sit here and be quiet anymore. I'll
admit that there may have been a couple of plot flaws, but I thought it hung
together rather well. Some people had problems with an instant mountain in the
middle of town, but, hey, that happens all the time here in Ohio. And the
burundi wand...how can anyone doubt it's credibility? And just because an
entire city depends on an octahedron (or whatever it was supposed to be), why
not be playing around with it at a shopping mall? But seriously, if you treat
it as an audience participation movie, it is great. We were rolling in the
aisles (and getting stuck on the spilled drinks, mushy used popcorn, etc.) it
was so funny. Brenda Vaccaro was terrific, and undoubtedly will win Best
Supporting Actress for her role. So let's stop slamming this movie. By the
way, it wasn't until after the fourth time I saw it that I noticed the plot
flaws. They were very subtle, and probably only picked up by the most astute
observer.

Are you kidding? I heard from several different sources that SUPERGIRL 
was one of the worst movies of the decade, (no matter what comes out
later this decade)!!!! But I guess there are some adults out there who
just love the SMURFS. 

Life goes on.
