Stargirl [Action, Adventure, Crime] (Page 1 of 7)

Count me in as well. I'm definitely up for more, and while you're at it, add some more of those rainbow sprinkles on top too, and don't forget the cherry. I mean, talk about starting things with a bang. It's pretty clear from the pilot that this series will enjoy quality production that appears to be in the same zip code as Titans and Doom Patrol. The special effects were fantastic. The polished cinematography along with the well-choreographed action sequences gives you that big-budget feel in an era of peak TV. The opening felt like a big-budget film of sorts, with a rogues' gallery of adversaries, and a whole mess more of Golden Age goodness for comic book fans to drool over. Judging by the comments from early screeners, we can expect to see this type of quality throughout the next three episodes.

The Amblin-esque 80's vibe lit up the most nostalgic part of my brain a couple of mins into the series premiere. I'm talking Back to the Future meets E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial vibes all over the place. Based on the pilot, it seems like this series wants to have a reverence and love for a simpler time, yet still firmly plants itself in the modern with a similar, but more guarded sense of optimism. I want more of this!

quote of the week.

Bad Stick! Bad!!!

I dont  know if any one here is into podcasts - they are often just opportunities fro self indulgence? But there is one for Stargirl  that might be worth a listen called

Stargirl Aftershow ( Fandom Limb Media)

The guy Shaun is a graphic artist by profession and apparently worked on the show and  is able to give insights in what  we see that couldn't be guessed at. eg the Blue Valley banner over the town as they enter is cgi & there is a reason why it had to be cgi. And what  are the stars that appear when Courtney is in her room.  Or the election poster as they are walking down the street  in the beginning? And the big one is one of the pictures on Courtney's picture board at the start.

Apparently the DC comics version is a full 60 minutes long compared to the CW version

Worth a listen if you like  that sort of thing

I used a podcast "viewer" & did a search, so no link as such.

This seems to be  from google

a few of the  behind scene facts are mentioned in eps 1 behind the scenes and easter  eggs

quote of the day

I am stargirl and that's my sidekick

well you might be disappointed as the show is a memorial to the creators sister who died in a plane accident. she appears in a picture on the picture board in esp 1, sitting on a bench with s.g

Quite a few, but it depends on what you mean "notable" 

In eps 1 when  courtney turns away from the window at night certain stars light up - the constellation of Virgo, the symbol of the maiden that is typically linked to Dike, the Greek goddess of justice

I was listening to one of the podcast mentioned above and it seems Geoff Johns recommends the show as something the whole family should watch together....

some pictures of the robot. it isnt a simple cgi effect
