I'm sorry but anyone that still defends trump after the Capitol hill riots is an idiot.

The smart guys have abandoned the Trump brand.

LoyalHustler also known as Penis Enlarger ain't get shiit to his name. A guy that frequents that Olosho joint and lives on N30.000 monthly salary mouthing off about a bet with a guy that can feed him. BraniacX should let that skunk be. How come he can't find enough money for his failed Penis Enlargement.

False. He is also known as the Penis Hustler

bayelsaowei:
why do trump zealots bear very funny but obscene names on nairaland? E be like na porn stars dey support trump oo...

The other one na penis enlarger...



Crazy trump folks all over the nairaland space..

One cannot simply be a trump fan. To be a Trump supporter, you must be a conspiracy theorist who believes in "alternate facts"

Bratking:
Stop living in denial.

Over 100 films and TV series from the Marvel, Star Wars and Disney universes are expected to hit Disney+ from this year onwards. The Sky is the limit for Disney+

Time waits for no man.


People have subscribe for Netflix this January. Many wont subscribe for another service till December.

Secondly, good movies do not always translate to good series. Looking at Wandavision

Zeemuthafuka:
Seriously guys...is it that no one here knows the app or y'all just want to ignore

What the fawk is watched++app?

DandeNumeruno:
Two years is a long time indeed, but Disney+ has number of things going for it.

(i)The PG-13 trap: PG-13 is mainstream. Increasing the potential size of the audience increases the potential profit.

(ii) The Peter Pan syndrome: PG-13 allows the Disney to execute a marketing strategy called the Peter Pan Syndrome.

(iii) Huge movie, TV series, animations catalogue.

Disney+ will hurt Netflix for sure. To remain competitive, Netflix should refocus on original content under its own umbrella and make more R-rated content.

No be only Peter pan, na captain Hook syndrome.


Disney+ cannot stop Netflix.


Disney+ release schedule has been too slow.

So far, mandalorian has been the only new hit show that has been released

Wandavision has not kicked into gear.

kendrick9:
Lovecraft country is mediocre by the way..
very low budgety compared to what HBO normally serves
Coupled with disgusting gay scene i witnessed..
I stopped right after that.

Lovecraft County is a great show.


Some people just cannot let bias go

abduleez1:
I'm banking on the Big upcoming series/franchises I'm getting in due time.
For now Netflix has the edge, which I see eroding in the next 2/3 years. When everyone starts fully pulling out their IP you'll know what's up. eg Friends, The Office, The Big Bang Theory and the likes.
They got the most important Franchises to ME presently:-
House of The Dragon
The Last Of Us
Justice League Dark
Green Lantern Corps

Netflix has only:
The Sandman
The Witcher
Avatar: The Last Airbender
They don't come close to the massive pull power or excitement in comparison to HBO's. Except Only The Sandman I'm most anticipated for, cos it's my favourite Comic.

More Quality over Quantity.

DandeNumeruno:
HBO max is not gaining subscribers as initially projected. Right now, the AT&T owned streaming service is outside of the top 10 list of world notable streaming services.

Both of you should know that 2 years is a long time..

Also Netflix could sign deals with other movie production houses and get new IP.

See cobra kai for instance.

abduleez1:
Easily.

Lmao. How many HBO max series or movies have you watched?

Netflix is cheaper and has more money to watching hour value

Ishilove:
And how does that stop me from noticing distractions? Grow up and start pretending to have some sense in this new year.

Imagine a wife talking about other men's joysticks online.

Ishilove:
This fellow is very hung... And it's very distracting

Aren't you supposed to be married to a six foot nigga?

Lmao

Wandavision......

Hmmm....let's see what happens in episode 3 because I am not understanding

Empiree:
Depression is real and vary in degrees. To cure oneself of depression requires good intention and practical steps. To treat subject of depression is tedious task. Bottom line is to never give up.


Allah S.W.T says: “And never give up hope of Allah’s soothing mercy: truly no one despairs of Allah’s soothing mercy, except those who have no faith.” [Surah Yusuf 12: Ayah 87]


So don’t let past mistakes define you. Don’t let repeated mistakes define you. The only thing that should define you, is your niyyah (intention).


This topic is something we will continue to discuss because solution is not in a single post. Remember there are other non-islamic approach that are well respected. This is a good topic actually and we should continue to treat it.

Jazakallahu khayran

I swear down. Depression is no joke- it does not care who you are. It is a silent killer menn.

I lost one of my friends recently to depression. He killed himself. He was a christian. Damn

Kachills:
The protesters at the Capitol never stated it was their intentions to overthrow democracy, that's what you leftists and your leftist media painted them as, their stated intent was to protest against electoral fraud. In this same vein, right wingers can accuse BLM of trying to overthrow Trump by storming the white house and call them insurrectionists and coup plotters which means you are also a low-key terrorist for supporting them. You can either provide evidence that the protests at the Capitol was planned with the aim to overthrow democracy or take your liberal media talking points and hit the highway to hell. If you can't see that the same rights that permit BLM to storm the white house while protesting is also available to those who are protesting elections fraud then you are a fascist to the core. You want to have the right to protest for the causes you believe in but you don't want others to have the the right to protest for their own causes because you don't believe in them? You have no shame.

So what were you conservative brothers doing by storming the capital and attempting to kidnap reps and senators?

abduleez1:
The fvvvvvk..... Why Egbon deactivate na??

Probaby his gambling activities

DandeNumeruno:
Another Gee bites the dust.

Which bites dust?

The guy probably ran away. The guy has been getting heat left and right from his gambling paddies in other threads

Empiree,

How does one deal with depression in Islam?

Atheists sometimes get it wrong.

JESHAL:
My core reason why I support Trump is based on my humanistic values

I'm pro life, I can't watch the genocide and slaughtering of innocent babies(sorry according to Abortionist infants) , and close my eyes like as if I have no soul, very sad killing babies(infants) in the name of empowering the mordern woman to be equal like man based on Egalitarian-equalist ideologies of progressivism

I can't be Happy with Biden who as a Catholic chose to massacre fragile unborn babies in planned Parenthood clinics

I won't watch evil grow,I will speak out against it even if it cost me everything

I value human life and precious innocent souls

There is nothing humanistic about being anti-abortion.

Abortion itself is a part and parcel of the human experience. Did you know that majority of abortions are natural abortions- spontaneous abortions?

You are an ignorant person that is empowered by blind faith.


What you anti-abortion clowns do not realise is that abortion is the last step of the action. Pro-choice is not the same as pro-abortion. Most pro choice people believe in using contraceptives and having sex education. With sex education in a society, the rate of unwanted pregnancies and abortions is reduced.

Anti-abortions clowns like you believe that you know all the conditions of a woman's pregnancies and also want to control women's bodies.


The greatest irony is that countries with abortion laws actually suffer the worst kind of abortions more than liberal prochoice countries.

Alexistaiwo deactivated!!

NOOOOOOOOO!!

DandeNumeruno:
I miss mekaprime, he's sooo easy to troll. The effort he put in composing epistles to refute what were basically troll posts, made trolling him delightful.

Now I have only you, and you're no fun.

See savagery. It is people like you that drove mekaprime to frustration.

As for me, you can't troll a troll

DandeNumeruno:
Point of correction: Koice wishes he were me.

No problem.

The original koice wannabe has left the thread.

DandeNumeruno:
Yup, just like I thought..

Stop making unfounded claims if you can't back em up with evidence. Having a right to an opinion isn't a get-out-of-jail free card that guarantees you absolution from rank stupidity. Talk smart or don't talk at all.

If I didnt know better, I would say that you were the reincarnation of koicereloaded.

The annoying smartass

DandeNumeruno:
I troll trolls and low IQ douches. Sounds familiar?

Why?

Why did you just have to spoil it?

DandeNumeruno:
C'mon! Even when it gets "serious", Succession is hilarious.

I can't decide if you're playing the devils advocate or you genuine put stock in what you submitted here. It doesn't make much difference anyway, because you're clearly off-base.

The points you put forward are part and parcel of the satirical content of the Succession. One of Succession’s strengths is its total commitment to showing how dreadful and insecure the Roys are. In a serious representation, The Roys would have redeeming qualities vying for supremacy with their despicable qualities. There are no redeeming qualities in Succession, but entitled & morally decadent dysfunctional family grasping for opportunities to get one over on each other.

If you still have doubts, surely the camera used in shooting the show would persuade you? It's a shaky, handheld over-the-shoulder view of a character's face notably utilized in comedies like Veep, The Thick of It, The Office, and Park & Rec. It usually involves zooming in and out on character's expressions as they abuse each other, and plot to do over their rivals.

Still not convinced? What about the show's creator and writer, Jesse Armstrong, known for co-penning satire heavyweights like Veep, The Thick of It, Peep show, and by and large known to write satires for dramatic presentations? Jesse Armstrong's forte is satire, it's what he excels at. His style is distinct, and Succession is overflowing with his brilliance.

So you have sense like this?

See what happens when you stop trolling and start discussing like a human being

DandeNumeruno:
(i) A comedy is a dramatic exaggeration of real life situations for humorous purpose. It's satirical in tone.

(ii) A drama is a serious representations that portray realistic characters to mirror real life situations.

Between the two definitions, I would say Succession has more in common with (i) than it does (ii), thus without further ado, I would surmise that Succession is a black comedy drama. Its appeal lies in its satirical tone.

It is more drama than comedy given the realistic and tragic lives that wealthy families with an abusive patriarch, live.

Sure, are there comedic parts? Yeah but it is very realistic and serious.


Realistic recurring themes
-Romans depraved sex life and assholery resulting from abuse at an early age.

-Roy's controlling and abusive nature that has damaged his wives and children. It has also seeded into his business where there were cover ups of sexual harassment by uncle Mo the Mo-lester.

-Kendall's drug addiction as a result of his fathers controlling nature.

DandeNumeruno:
At the core, it's essentially the concept of Veep (a political satire) applied to the business world rather than politics, but darker and more warped. It's a black comedy slash satire pretending to be a drama.

Still a drama.

See why I hate all these marvel/DC comics arguments?

Somebody posted evidence and yet people are still arguing.

lanrexlan:
Prepare my ticket and visa and I will go.

Lying is a sin in islam

lanrexlan:
Your opinions don't define who I am and your perceptions about me isn't me really.

If sharia law is illegal in Nigeria, it is up to the government to pass a judgment on its removal, not my own power. You should direct this anger and energy to the Nigerian government.

It is all about laws, if Muslims are going against laws, they should be punished. If atheists are treated unfairly without the law, then that's wrong. Since Nigerian government recognizes sharia law and your atheist brother knew this, why going against the law? Ignorance isn't an excuse.


Baba no stress me.

It is okay. You just needed a taste of my pain and anger towards the religious injustice that happens in Nigeria

lanrexlan:
I think you should always stand up for what you believe in but it seems you are a coward.

Your hatred for Mac has no limits, the brother really dealt with your coconut head.

Why not go to China and speak up about islam if you think you are brave.

Mac will always be my go to example of an intolerant muslim. He has earned it.

lanrexlan:
The bolded words got me laughing. Baba no wan die sha.

But logicboy, remember you get money na. Hire bodyguards to safeguard you

Waste of money.

lanrexlan:
Point of correction, I am no fanatic.

Who has been oppressing you that has made talked about religion for years? Is it oppression that made you open loads of monikers to troll religion? Are you still oppressed?

You are a fanatic. If not, you would understand that sharia law in Nigeria is illegal and oppression. How can sharia exist with a secular constitution?

Tell me, have you ever sat down to understand the plight of the atheist in Nigeria?

It is funny how muslims can react to CAN and government schools marginalising muslims but keep quiet when christians and atheists are bullied.
