Since 4:00am in the morning I've been battling with it. 😤😡

It's when it worked in Chrome browser I knew it was probably a system upgrade. After a few minutes chrome stopped working also. Opera works and stops. It's haphazard all through.


And the annoying part is that I'm not even seeing any change or upgrade with the interface or anything.

The emoji's were here before this shit so it doesn't count. angry

Jeen-yuhs - The Kanye Trilogy.

He is truly (even though not perfect) a jeen-yuhs. The kind of belief the guy had/has himself and God (that's the impression I got) is infectious.

His life would probably have been different as an "English teacher" but hey glad he made that album - Jesus Is King

Say what you like about Ye, but the old Kanye is still there.

I guess Seun is hard at work running or deploying upgrades we have been demanding for years. And er testing them while the site is live. So here we are

Episode 1 was ok, but after that, you can tell it's just side missions with the overall aim of finding a cure.

I'm not even going to watch the series anymore.

Now if you summarize any series or movie like you did above, I don't think there's a movie or series worth watching.

The beauty of the game was the relationship between Ellie and Joel. How 2 strangers formed a beautiful bond. And the overall aim of the part 1 of the game which this s1 is based on was not actually finding a cure but getting Ellie to the place where doctors can try to make a cure.

Main character energy. That's how he walked into GOT for just one season and stole the entire spotlight.

Seriously you people need to calm down with the way you over hype series and movies, that's how I just wasted 30 hours of my life on 3 season of Succession, I kept waiting for something to happen, but nothing happened, I regret watching it.

Shame to all of you that recommended it.
Nobody held a gun to your head to see it. A clear case of "herd mentality" and "FOMO" because how are you seeing S1 to S3 before deciding the show is not for you. Sometimes, do your research, see trailers and know if the show you are about to see or that is been hyped aligns with your taste.

The Last Of Us. This is good. The series as a whole is a middle finger to the other studio which produced the Halo TV show. Thank God I’ve not played the game, however the clips I’ve repeatedly watched online are beat for beat representations of scenes in the show. I never believed a video game could come to life this way and I never doubted HBO could deliver. Episode two was… chef’s kiss. I was never bored, I was hyped to watch the next episode immediately.

My only criticisms (which are still positives).

1. Quit it with reenacting scenes from the game. Three were done in the first episode. Three were done in the second. It seems this will be a recurring theme. Yes, your studio nailed all aspects of the source material. Please, I want more creative liberty. I don’t want studios going the lazy route of feeding us things we already saw in video games. The audience is not that dumb.

That’s all.

I didn’t see much of Bella Ramsey’s acting in the first episode. She was truly Ellie in the second. Game Joel is pretty one-dimensional. Pedro Pascal is crushing it in the role. All the actors chosen are making the characters theirs, despite physical differences from the game counterparts.

How do movies and shows make money despite spending so much? I want to understand the finances of Hollywood.

lmao...
I don't fall for those kinda bait ...

When they say a series is so good just cos critics hype it...
But then nobody can tell you what is special about it...
People just rate it because critics rate it


Same reason why I haven't watched The Wire...
I've not seen a single review telling me what makes it one of the best...

It is just the usual "critically acclaimed"... "Critically rated to be one of the best" bla bla bla

Herd mentality...

Afterall critics say it's the best show of 2022
Afterall it won awards...

Yet till date I've never seen a review that actually tells me what makes it stand out

Make no mistake, it is a fantastic show, and you are probably looking at the wrong reviews because it has all the blueprint of a stellar show; Strong performances, impeccable writing and creative team and perfectly mirroring real life media house power tussle. It is a satirical black comedy gem whilst it sucks you in to take it serious!. It getting great reviews from critics and fans with many accolades to show for it, is clearly not a coincidence, it invariably means it stands out strongly like a 4am morning erection after a long dry spell of celibacy, contrary to your claims.

However, I think only mad man will like and want to see every tv show or movie there is, which is impossible. You clearly do not like it for some reason which is fine and you rate other shows above it which is totally fine too, doesn't negate the fact that it is a masterpiece.

I didn't see it because I couldn't find a review that actually stated what makes the show stand out...
All I saw were vague reviews without much substance or reason to watch it...
Similar to The Wire...vague reviews that don't tell me why I should watch it other than it is "critically acclaimed"

I was responding to his review that he watched it solely because it is critically acclaimed

How is this series a middle finger to the studio that produced Halo?

As in all the twist and turns don dey person head. And given the fact that its staying true to the game story line means little or no suspense will characterise the show for us.

But I do enjoy the added content that are outside Joel's perspective. They actually add to the lore in a way the game never could.

That's why i stated that you are probably looking at the wrong reviews cuz ain't no a proper review of "Succession" is vague.

Pray tell what make you classify the review as "Vague" and what makes a show good in your books?

Vikings Valhalla is more enjoyable than Vikings itself, who else agree with me…
Only if they extend the seasons like they did to vikings, up to s6. Making it more enjoyable..
But, i think Valhalla won't pass three seasons.
