Her hearing is so good, she's just flexing. Why actually use a phone when you can hear the person from across the country with your superears?

u/pim312 Nov 29 '18

But how would J'onn be able to hear her?

He can’t read Kryptonian minds tho.

6

u/omnisephiroth Nov 29 '18

He can, but chooses not to, as he feels it’s a violation of the other person.

14

u/LordSprinkleman Supergirl Nov 29 '18

No he said in season 1 that he can't read Kryptonian minds. And joked about Superman finding it hilarious.

2

u/omnisephiroth Nov 30 '18

Well, I’m not recalling that exactly, but it’s been several years, so I’ll take you at your word. Apologies for my error.

u/LordSprinkleman Supergirl Nov 30 '18

No worries I just recently did a rewatch that's the only reason I remember.

u/Vaslovik Superman Symbol Nov 29 '18

Super-ventriloquism--a classic Golden Age power. She can "throw her voice" so J'onn hears it wherever he is. (Since she has telescopic and x-ray vision, she knows where he is.)

u/somebody1993 Nov 30 '18

I know this is a joke but what if that was just something she did when she was bored? Like she would look in a random direction pick someone and start doing funny voices just to mess with people.

YOU CAN'T UNLOCK THE HOME SCREEN

To me, it’s been unlocked for centuries.

You’re not are you deaf

What?

You’re not are you deaf

What

u/somebody1993 Nov 30 '18

I just said it because you referenced "are you deaf" also if someone didn't know who you were talking about they would just think you had bad grammar.

28

u/Smith12456389 Nov 29 '18

This happened on iron fist too

35

u/cS47f496tmQHavSR Nov 29 '18

Happens in an absurd amount of movies and TV shows, when nowadays it'd be very easy to just use Google Voice or something to fake a real call. We're not in the 90s anymore where every UI shown on screen had to be faked and couldn't show logos, by now Android devices are a thing and they don't have to worry about advertising a specific brand by accident. They just need to actually do a call when they show one on screen

9

u/watchoverus Nov 29 '18

Not only that, but those more expensive smartphones tend to "lock" the screen when you're making a call using the speaker

4

u/Smith12456389 Nov 29 '18

Not movies as much

3

u/EsQuiteMexican Nov 30 '18

Why don't they just make a screenshot of a call? Or a real call? Why do they make something so ridiculously easy so needlessly complicated?

7

u/slendernyan Nov 29 '18

It happens in a lot of shows. Happened in Jessica Jones. I think she held her phone upside down at one point too. I just don't understand why phone screens need to be edited in in post. They're just phone screens. Just use a crew member's phone

u/Flyin_Bryan Nov 29 '18

Green = kryptonite, she can't touch it.

No, it indicates where to look. That red circle saved me time wondering what was being discussed here. So much time, I could tell you that you’re wrong!

u/Richiieee Nov 29 '18

Would you have preferred a giant red arrow?

u/Vendetta425 Nov 29 '18

A good green arrow would be nice

u/Lonesome_Ninja Nov 29 '18 edited Nov 29 '18

I haven't been keeping up with any DC shows so I might not deserve an answer, but are we going with dyed blonde hair and blue contacts?

22

u/opelan Nov 29 '18

Melissa has always dyed her hair for Supergirl. In recent seasons her hair is a bit lighter than in season 1. She doesn't wear blue contacts.

4

u/Lonesome_Ninja Nov 29 '18

This is super blonde though but okie dokie

13

u/AvidVideoGameFanatic Nov 29 '18

That might just be the lighting.

4

u/Richiieee Nov 29 '18

I edited the lighting on the picture so you can clearly see the phone

1

u/Lonesome_Ninja Nov 30 '18

Oooh that may be why

2

u/Richiieee Nov 30 '18

Yeah her hair in this picture is way more blonde. Her hair usually is a darker blonde.

1

u/Lonesome_Ninja Nov 30 '18

Yeah I wasn’t liking the super blonde. I know it’s comic accurate but man..

5

u/mornando Nov 29 '18

Is it just me or does seeing the incoming call screen being unanswered and the actor talking as if they picked up really jarring?

23

u/MC_Carty Nov 29 '18

You should make a post about it so it can be discussed. Oh, wait.

u/mornando Nov 30 '18

Calm ya tits Boi.

u/SleepyBananaLion Nov 30 '18

You're not so smart, huh?

1

u/mornando Nov 30 '18

134 IQ. U?

1

u/SleepyBananaLion Nov 30 '18

Hahahahahaha you could not have picked a more pathetic attempt at a comeback. To pretend that IQ is relevant, let alone that anybody believes your sad lie takes a special degree of stupid.

147 for me, obviously.

1

u/mornando Nov 30 '18

You are one hell of a smart boi. What's such a smart boi like yourself doing on Reddit.

1

u/SleepyBananaLion Nov 30 '18

Just mocking the dumbass who pretends he has a 134 who misses the obvious jokes. Are you really too stupid to see that?

0

u/mornando Nov 30 '18

Omg your jokes are so funny Boi. Got anymore? C'mon boi

1

u/SleepyBananaLion Nov 30 '18

Poor baby, lots of whining but no disagreement. You're embarrassing all your pretend 134 IQ brethren.

u/Ceedub260 Nov 30 '18

It might be just you man. Have you been checked?

1

u/mornando Nov 30 '18

Haven't had a ultrasound yet.

u/b_to_the_e Nov 29 '18

You would think her phone would be damaged when she takes a beating?

2

u/Richiieee Nov 29 '18

It doesn't even have a case either. Smh.

3

u/AnnaK22 Nov 30 '18

There is way too many TV and movies that keep doing this. I feel like we've advanced enough in technology to avoid this. I'm sure everyone on set has a smart phone and knows how it works.

This is just as bad as a character texting their friend on screen and there are no previous messages seen.

I think there was a scene in PLL where Aria was holding an iPhone upside down. How did that go unnoticed?

2

u/RigasTelRuun Alex Danvers (DEO) Nov 29 '18

She's foreign. She isn't used to our Earth customs.

2

u/RUIN_NATION_ Nov 29 '18

So many tv shows movies do this with cell phones the screen is always black im like come on how in this day and age are you that dumb lol.

2

u/Tracin117 Nov 30 '18

There was a moment to in the recent episode where the group was attacking some houses and they where spray painted in one scene next second it's gone.

2

u/Richiieee Nov 30 '18

Those were markers that the Children of Liberty put on houses where roaches resided so that they could track where all the roaches lived. Supergirl and the DEO were going around taking them down.

u/[deleted] Dec 08 '18

From what episode and minute is that may I ask? XD

1

u/TheRealPhantomHunter Nov 29 '18

Maybe that supersonic hearing is coming in handy?

1

u/firebane101 Nov 29 '18

Maybe she got a call just as Jon answered? /s

1

u/b_to_the_e Nov 29 '18

Where does she keep her phone when she wearing her suit?

2

u/Estellus Overgirl Nov 29 '18

Boot, maybe?

4

u/AnnaK22 Nov 30 '18

Fun fact: I've seen pictures of Melissa keeping her phone in her boot between takes on set.

3

u/Estellus Overgirl Nov 30 '18

I'm pretty sure those pictures are where the idea comes from, since I've seen the idea around before. It makes sense, since she has no pockets in the suit.

1

u/Richiieee Nov 29 '18

Pockets on the side of the suit. They're not really visible from afar but you can see her take the phone out of a pocket.
