      Never understood how that film never became an 80s icon like other rebellious films of that period. It has all the hallmarks of a well-known 80s film yet fell into obscurity...

      Helen should Re-Boot...call it...SuperWoman! No, seriously, SuperWoman and the Return to Kandor Yes a 60 year old wise sage who via a Ship from Earth returns to the shrunken city of Kandor held captive by Braniac , of course she has No Super powers ( only on Earth) so she uses the Braniac to restore Kandor to an Alternative Planet i.e. Mars and becomes Terraformed .because of Space/ Time/ Alien Tech knowlogy All inhabitants are Super human.in Earth prospective. But they are all equal on Mars, so in essence they have No"Superpowers"

      I remember her mostly as love interest for young Patrick Dempsey in "Happy Together" 80's romantic flick...loved that film and they were both young and full of youthful energy at the time and Patrcik wasn't dickhead at the time, that he became later on...

      I don't mean to sound like dick, but she aged a whole lot lmao...especially in the last 5 or 6 years...the last time she appeared as cameo in Supergirl episode she still looked okay, but since then she was starting aging rapidly, so no she doesn't look you g at all...if anything she looks just loke her age, just like you would expect 60 years old person to look like actually, maybe only slightly younger...

    Helen's Supergirl is the closest to age appropriate Supergirl they've had so far.

    Supergirl gets a lot of heat, but it was a genuinely good and entertaining film. People shit on it becasue the scale was much smaller and more intimate than the Reeve films, but I felt that made it very unique and fitting for the "innocent girl in a strange place" vibe they were going for.
    Also, the musical score and production design were incredible, plus this movie EASILY has the best flying scenes in all of the "Super" franchise.
    Sad we never got a Reeve/Slater team up movie, but that shouldn't take away anything from the Supergirl film.
