introvertme:
I just finished Ratched. This show was beautifully crafted. If you loved that American horror story asylum season, you will definitely enjoy this.

I really loved Charlotte. Damn. They all need an award. E go Tay before nollywood catch up. Lol.

Last episode right now.

Too bam.

Why you dey call Nollywood for here na. Shey dem don do herbalist and land stealing movie finish?

Hell, I doubt whether we even believe that multiple personality disorder is a real thing in this nation.

Na God go help us.

Hey y'all, I know this isn't a movies thread, but I recommend y'all should see the documentary 'The Social Dilemma'

Its about how social media is affecting us all.

Its a real mind opener.

It's available on Netflix.

Moneyboyz:
Ratched : 7.5/10

This series gave me mixed feelings, 6 episodes in and I don't know the good guys from the bad guys cause everyone is fuçkïng messed up one way or another.
You can't kill people and expect some kind of redemption without paying for your crime's (applies to all majour characters)
Will finish the remaining episodes and see what happens.

Bro, the scheming and plotting are just off the charts, as in eh...

Moneyboyz:


You don't need all that, give Homelander a poisoned bottle of breast milk and see him drink himself to death.

Y'all can clap for me later.

E too sure die. Baba go drink am die well.

Nuttella:
Oh, well explained.

Thanks.

Who go con explain my own questions na?

Nuttella:
OK, but why did father help mother? I thought he has been reprogrammed, me sef confuse..

If care is not taken, Caleb will kill Sue with that knife, just like he did in that trance when they were making love in a cave.

Caleb too dey do stubborn head, and I'm sure its his stubborn head that will make him kill Sue. Cos it either his way or the highway.

See as he pressured the last Eminence till he had to kill him just cos he wanted them to retrieve the children.

Nuttella:
Which is why Mother can't be completely reprogrammed. I think Mother destroyed Earth.

I think they were many necromancers used by the Church which in turn destroyed earth, Mother's creator just catch one and turned her to what she is right now.

Brukx:

I was trying to defend HBO's gay scene, all of a sudden the post was deleted and I was banned. E shock me!!!

Sometimes person nor dey know wetin dey lead to banning. Before you know, you nor fit post again.

Nuttella:
OK, but why did father help mother? I thought he has been reprogrammed, me sef confuse..

If care is not taken, Caleb will kill Sue with that knife, just like he did in that trance when they were making love in a cave.

I get his helping mother, like the programming was all manual or so to speak, cos normal programming dem suppose connect the guy to system or a larger hard drive to completely override his programming, hence the 'trigger finger' or twitching finger in my opinion.

So maybe the reprogramming wasn't as complete , hence some layer of father is still there.

Okay my questions from Raises by Wolves, let's discuss.

1. Who is making those drawings on the wall of the dome?

2. Is the air contaminated that's why they are seeing Tally?(even if the air is contaminated, androids, shey dem dey really breath abi na just for fancy cos they are seeing Tally also.

3. That white liquid is the android kind of blood right, Mother was cut back and front in large slices isn't she suppose to be malfunctioning with all that blood lose from overnight till the next day and also with the dragging from their settlement to the pit?

4. Who is talking to our guy, shey na really Sol?

5. Who was Mother talking to in the simulation, cos you can only talk to other people who are also in simulation. And we know that her creator is dead , so who is that person?

6. The tubers are radioactive abi, so why are they still planting it?(Twas one coil of tubers, now its three).

7. Is it just me or those animals looks like humans? Maybe they have been there for so long that their body has changed?

Nuttella:
Am I the only one that got confused when watching raised by wolves episode 7, who was Caleb fighting that stabbed him biko?

Shey we don ready to talk about this episode? Cos I nor hear say I do spoiler for anybody o.

The simple and dry of it, he cut himself.

The voice he was hearing in his head brought back his old self albeit imaginary and they fought, so his old self(which is still himself) cut him.

Crazy abi. Well he don dey craze small small.

CuteMercury:
Lovecraft country should give us that and they should stop trying too hard with unnecessary horror fantasy every 5 minutes.

But...but...that's its genre na.

Should it bend over backwards just for you?

Brukx:
WTF! Nairaland now has a bot that puts bans on users

You just dey know. My main account Achilles100 , don chop ban so before them release am, I go dey use this one.

oyaskii:
i thinking he's behind one moniker called "Speroquest" one time that was hyping Killing Eve and Cable Girls one certain time. Once he's fixated on a series, this thread would not hear the end of it.

As in eh, his fixation na wa o.

I understand all series can't be to your taste, I bashed this last season of The Chi cos I didn't enjoy the direction the show was going, after 3rd or 4th episode , I stopped watching it.

If you nor like am, no one is forcing you to watch it.

CuteMercury:
Let me just write what is on my mind. Lovecraft country is forking overhype and overrated. they should had built a story in that wolf town. Now they are just going round circles trying to make sense. they should take a clue from series like warrior, penny dreadful ETC. honestly i hope they get their shiiit right because right now. they dont make sense anymore.

If you've read any of the works of Dan Brown, you will understand that when it involves secret cult, its always with clues and symbolism.

Always moving from one place to another, hell, even from one country to another just to find another piece of the puzzle.

CuteMercury:
The songs they keep playing at the end of each episodes of wentworth, most especially these season 8" keep making to scream "mad o!!" lol. Damm!! they transition of the songs and the ringing of the emergency alarm dey burst my brain i swear. I heard lovecraft country is goint to korea in next episode and i was like what tha fork are they doing in korea? succesful series are built around towns and cities. for example peaky blinders(Bermigham) Penny dreadful(london) Vikings(norway) we have not even learnt about the story of the house and the town they are and now they are going to korea? na wa o. the huge tower in episode 1. they did not even show us inside. "So many things dont make sense at all. Well i will keep my fingers cross.

You like your Wentworth, fine.
You don't like Lovecraft, fine. Leave am.

I didn't want to answer you o, but nah, make we trash am out.

The issue with you and Lovecraft is that you have this ( lemme use your word) constructive mindset( which doesn't even make sense in this context but make we use am) on how a TV show is suppose to go.

(PS: Not be to speak big grammar, the word you should've use instead of constructive mindset is fixed mindset. Two different meanings, ask Google.)

So lemme continue, why didn't you tell GoT to remain in one city to tell the whole story? They travelled to different places from snowy places to freaking hot places in GoT just for the viewer to grasp the entire picture.

Same thing Lovecraft country is doing, we have been told Tic had a girlfriend when he was stationed in Korea and the last episode, Tic called her cos she had already somehow known his affiliation with the cult or so(we weren't told plain like this, just my assumption based on the call he made to her, asking her, 'how did she know?').

So he is going to meet her and let her explain what she knows and if that can help him in quest to translate the pages of the language of Adam.

losprince:

Arguably. Tho I believe the piece of shit is getting some slack because of its female director, had it been a man that directed this, the outrage would be phenomenal! PC people are such hypocrites.

Liiikkkeeee. She covers too minority demographics hence the outrage is minimal, she's black and female.

If it was, say a white male, O boy, I am certain neflix would have removed that movie from their platform by now.

Just a scene of the movie I saw, I couldn't even finish watching it, twas disgusting.

They already gave a TED talk about pedophilia saying its a natural sexual orientation, next step is into movies, next thing na into law.

Seunpaul01:
the social dilemma 1O to 1O

It's a must watch for everybody.

The world is going crazy if not worse. And we are all being manipulated to make it happen.

Just saw the trailer, will download it tonight.

nani667:
Just saw this new release with Tom Holland... Rating looks good

Give your review when you done

nani667:
Still on Wentworth ★

Started Season 4

That is A LOT of BOOBS!!!!

Be like say I go retry this Wentworth again o.

sanpipita:


Gay or straight, sex scenes has always been a catch in series and movies, let's not act like isnt part of what people want to see, most popular American series/movies you will see are loaded with sex scenes

If you don't know what I'm talking about, gently scroll and pass. Two of the series that I'm currently seeing talking about completely different themes, people in the series had floating sex( sex in the air).

I don't know why you feel that I'm condemning it. I'm just stating it.

So the reigning thing na sex scene in the air abi?

Okay.

New Episode

Gmajor:
Mulan (2020)

Mulan 2020 is the live action remake of the classic Disney animated movie about a girl who disguises herself as a man and goes to war in her father's place.

POSTIIVES
1. Unlike most of the Disney live action remakes, this movie is not an exact remake of the original. The villain is different, his motivation is different, there is inclusion of fantasy elements that were not in the original etc.
And I think this is a good decision (in theory anyway).
Almost all of the Disney classics still hold up well today. The animation, voice acting and story all look great till this day, so a lot of people have criticised the live action remakes as soulless cash grabs that have nothing to offer.
This movie on the other hand, tried to tell a story that isn't exact to the original and I think that is quite laudable.


2. The movie looks extremely nice. The location and cinematography are all top notch and as such, the movie is a visual delight.

NEGATIVES

1. As much as I would like praise the fact that the movie tried to do something different, unfortunately, the changes that were made was for the worst.

The core message of the movie feels vastly inferior to the original and a lot of the supporting characters are devoid of personality.


2. The acting isn't too good.

I've noticed that when (some) Chinese people act in a language that isn't Mandarin, their performance leaves so much to be desired and I think that this was the case in this movie.
Some characters in this movie were good like Mulan's father. However, the movie is littered with may instances of sub-par acting.

The actress who plays Mulan is also guilty of this. In some scenes, she in good, however, there are many scenes where she has this beautifully frozen face that is utterly incapable of emoting.


3. Bloodless warfare. Yey!
I understand that this is a PG movie, but the scenes of bloodless warfare really took me out of the movie.
It just felt like, we are looking at a high school play. Someone gets stabbed- you don't see any blood and the blade is also bloodless. Hmm.


4. Weird editing choices.
This movie has a lot of bizarre editing but the one that sticks out for me was in the battlefield where birds start to attack the soldiers and then they form a sort of dome with their shields in order to protect themselves.

Then the bad guys bring out their cannon and begin to shoot the good guys.

OK oh. No problem.

From the wider shot, we could see about 5-7 shield domes. Maybe there are more but we didn't get to see them.

In response, Mulan who is quite far from the position of the bad guys, jumps on a horse, picks up like 5-7 helmets, and then in the next shot, she is very far behind the bad guys - like WTF?
Does she now teleport?


5. For some reason, they decided to not include any of the songs from the original in the movie. There is a bit of the instrumental version of one of the classic songs but that was all.
I. Can understand why they didn't want to make it a musical, however, they should have still included some of the classic songs in the background or in a montage


In conclusion, Mulan, like all Disney live-action remakes suck when compared to the original, however on its own, the movie is just avergish and highly forgettable.

I did a similar review on Mulan on the 'What series are you watching' cos somebody asked over there using my first moniker Achilles100

It was a very poor movie. So much high expectations, the disappointment was enormous.

As I said over there, Disney should stop with the live action remake, they are ruining these beautiful childhood memories.

Lion King was trash. I didn't bother to see it.
Mulan also trash. I regretted the data spent.

Only Aladdin was quite enjoyable.

ProverbBaelish:

you are talking of the best film on my radar right now

Your taste really suck. No cap!

losprince:

That movie is a paedophile's dream, those kids were overly exploited, regardless of what message they were trying to pass, putting young girls in such positions is outrageous.

That movie wasn't passing any message.

absky5:
he never said the movie wasn't interesting or good. Considering it's just a movie review. He only agreed to the controversy surrounding the banning of the movie... I think they are two different things.

Hehehehehe

I think ratings means in plain words;

On a scale of 1 - 10, how good is the movie?

Where 1-4 is bad , 5 - 6 is average, 7 is good, 8-10 can mean very good or superb.

So when he gives a trash like Cuties 7, he is saying it actually a good movie.

hpymoment:


I deleted it on my system after ep05 and I won't continue watching that shit. And besides sef the show want carry too many stuff at a time with few characters

Can I ask you a question?

Why do you care who another consenting adult chooses to sleep with?
