I see.....

Yep. I remember her name from those movies. It used to appear after Spielbergs name. She don tay die.

What a silly story.

This inevitable wants to trend on the clancy case.making up bullahit story of " my friend".


The girls mother would have killed her before this happened sef. In Nigeria a woman delivers and there's nobody in the house with her. No omugwo or elderly female relative to help.

Lol. Twitter gradually turning to Facebook.

Schindler's List (1993)..........9.5/10


This is one of the best films ever told about the Jewish massacre or Holocaust as its more popularly known, if not The Best.
It was one of the harshest depictions of war and what war turns men into. The enslavement of jews, persecution and the institutional genocide orchestrated by the German Nazi Party with its Austrian Leader.

The story was set mainly in Poland and the Krakow Concentration Camp/ district. Chronicles the atrocities by the Germans against Polish Jews.
Watching this film and remembering an episode that focused on the Jews in the German concentration camps in Band of Brothers and films depicting Japanese atrocities against mainland Chinese, I'm beginning to have a headscratcher who was more evil between the two; Nazi Germany or Imperialist Japan. Or perhaps they were literally cut from the same clothe but in different continents.

Still on my musings: I'm also left with. a bigger head scratcher as to how Liam Neeson delivered an all-timer performance as industrialist Oskar Schindler, and now mostly known for his overly beaten TAKEN franchise trope of the action star with the motto- I'll find you and I'm going to kill you.

A memorable performance from Ralph Fiennes to play the infamous War Criminal Amon Goeth.

Amon was a ruthless Nazi commander who had a peculiar pleasure for killing needlessly without reason and grew a feared reputation amongst Jews. Dude could shoot you just for being fat or slim. Killed a Jewish civil engineer for being right. And still followed her recommendation after killing her. You never knew your fate with Amon Goeth as a Jew.


Oskar Schindler became a wealthy man who profiteered from the slave labour the Jews provided but at least he was a man with a soul and conscience. Truly cared for his staff and the plight of the Jews and did everything within his power to help them as much as he could. Man showed incredible grit and sense of purpose trying to save thousands of Jews by smuggling in as many Jews as can be into his workers' list-- the Schindler's List, to go work in his Czechslovakia hometown factory under vastly favourable conditions.

After the War and the Germans was defeated, Oskar Schindler became a national hero for the Jewish community that he was recognised by the Jewish state and was buried in Israel upon his death.

One scene that pretty much struck me and stuck to me was Amon Goeth trying to be more merciful after Schindler cajoled and persuaded him into the idea of being a powerful man just by showing mercy to his to his subjects--making his subjects know fully well he wielded the power over their life or death.

Amon struggled with this notion of appealing to his good side-- being a Merciful dictator. But ultimately returned back to default settings in a few days. Which debunks the notion that Wars makes men into beasts and do despicable acts just to one up the enemy.

Its just like the maxim that money doesnt change a man. It only brings out the true character. Same can be said of War and Power.

Easily one of the Best black and white films I've ever watched alongside MANK. The cinematography was top tier and i hardly felt any different or felt missing out from coloured films.

It was a beautiful watch asides the very hard, brutal and dark themes portrayed in the movie. It is one of those hard war movies to watch, almost leaving you miserable especially towards the end. Maybe not as entirely miserable and depressed like the likes of Grave of the Fireflies or Barefoot Gen.

Steven Spielberg na baba no be today. He's cemented himself as one of the most influential Directors of all time. A litle sad man hasn't been able to command the crowd as he used to during his heydeys.

Honest surprise to also see the name of Stephen Zallian. He wrote and produced the beautiful tv show RIPLEY......and in black and white too and I can see the correlation.

While the credits rolled for this film, i was quite surprised to have seen the name Kathleen Kennedy attached to this project. A name that has been associated with the malaise that has affected the Star Wars franchise. I'm quite surprised one could go from a Masterpiece such as this to consistently regurgitating slop two decades later.

3 hours of masterpiece storytelling that i could barely take note of the lengthy screentime. An easy recommend and a reminder of how peak storytelling and pacing was in the 90s.

One of the films you should watch at least once in your lifetime no matter how short life is as a Cinephile.

It is a fantastic movie. Saw it a long time ago. You should check the boy in the striped pajamas too same theme but very depressing ending.


Kathleen Kennedy has always been attached to Spielberg movies as a producer or some pther title Check as far back ET and the Indian Jones franchise, gremlins , Hook, jurassic Park etc. Her name has always been there.

4 weeks of listening to blasohemous things about Hal or Green Lanterns in general.
We just cant have nice things.

I've put that on pause.

The gentlemen s2 is my focus now. I'll be back for lanterns when I'm done.

I'm lazy about the Pitt still downloading s1.

Just block the monikers you don't want to see and get 3 weeks of peace.

The original IT first adaptation of Stephen Kings book



This guy had a very wide range. Fantastic actor.

May he RIP.

I've been to this place. It's an island to start with and they aren't connected to the national grid. Any electricity you see there is powered by generator.

Even the LGA isn't working. Through out my visit of about 1 week. It was locked up. Only the gate man was here chillng with his guys.

This was over a decade ago and they're still in that condition till date.

They have no water supply, they use the river water to bathe and also defecate into the water. I saw kids swimming in one side and others defecating in the other side at the same time.

It was an eye opening experience.

Tinubu is a cat with nine lives, that is why he is the master strategist of Nigerian propaganda politics.

Lastlas he will release El Rufai to help him again, to mobilise votes in Kaduna and elsewhere while helping the clueless clown answer questions.

Tyrion lannister would be released after elections. He should know by now if he releases him before the election nothing he says would hold value to the man.

He disgraced him at the senate hearing for ministers and now has arrested him. They burnt that bridge and poured fuel in the water underneath and set it in fire.

Wizardslayer:
All I can see around nyesom wike is fear.

He's definitely afraid of something.

He is scared shitless. He has easier that nigerian politics is bigger than pdp and rives state politics. He realises that if tinubu loses the election his life is over in Nigeria.

He would have to leave the country forever because he has dealt with too many people to count and his protection is currently the presidency.

The fact is no matter what happens next year he is done because even if tinubu gets a second term wike has to go too.

His time is almost up politically and he can see it. So he is trying his best to cling to the presidency as a loyalist

Imagine a driverless car with you inside in Edo state...

Dem no go even see the dead body to Bury na abandoned areas and idp camps go dey periphery.

This is philanthropy.

No be some people when dey give who get already as investment.

TemporaryHansel:
$5b is a stretch. No matter how good it is I don't see it going past $3.5b. Well, even with the $3.5b I'll break records and make history.

Actors need to find a way to squeeze more from these sort of movies, i can't accept the fact you're getting paid $20-50m for a movie that is grossing $2.5b for example. It's surreal.

When movies tank, almost all the blames fall to the actors mostly, so when they(the movies) are successful, why don't the actors get rewarded humongously? At least it'll motivate them. Just saying, this is my personal opinion though.

Highest grossing movie of all time loading.......


P.s They have a lot of backdoor deals for the big boys that leaves them with retirement funds. Everyone will make bank except the new faces

BlackManta:
I don't care how much it makes.

It better not be mid.

I can't stand a mediocre blockbuster, if e like make e gross $5b.

Spoiler alert


It can never be mid.

She has tried.

I remember coat of many colours and my favourite country song jolene which Beyonce ruined with her remix.

MSGAMBLE9:
Incredible ....

You ain't seen nothing yet.

Make December sha reach first. Eyes will be opened and people will believe the juggernaut the mcu is.

The film might even be mid but it will make billions.

pu7pl3:
Why did the sheriff not get along with him? All he asked for was a chance to talk to the guy and he has more experience than her obviously.
She even went ahead to say he wasn't fearless he was just alone.
Even if he wanted to pick a fight with the bar guys why would they be willing to go head on with him despite knowing who he was? It doesnt make any sense.

Hal Jordan is the most respected Green Lantern and the show gave him none of that exceptthe little autograph he was signing at that diner.

She knows her father inlaw is involved somehow. She's aware of the threat too.

Let's see how it plays out.

Super girl wasn't as bad as they made it out to be.i wonder why so much hate. Its not spectacular but its decent enough for an afternoon flick.

The furious. Empty.

But the choreography was epic. The fat bald headed dude really impressed me being able to move with all that weight.



Devil wears prada 2. I still cannot bring myself to start this movie. I think I'll try the Pitt 1 episode instead

Calibrator:
LANTERNS is starting to get my attention.

Just finished 2 episodes back to back and honestly I'll follow it up. Seems like a slow build but it might lead to an exciting finale.


Let's see where this goes

Rubyjade:
Results, Not Just Announcements

Commending the medical team is fine, but for the public, this should go beyond ceremonies and press statements. If this was truly a groundbreaking robotic-assisted surgery, then let the government show us the results.

What type of surgery was performed? What was the patient's condition before the procedure, and how is the patient doing now? What measurable improvement has the surgery achieved? How many patients can this facility realistically treat, and how accessible is it to ordinary Imo residents?

Healthcare development shouldn't be judged by the presence of impressive equipment or the number of facilities commissioned. It should be judged by outcomes—lives saved, successful procedures, shorter recovery times, affordable treatment and better access to quality care.

The people deserve evidence, not just noise. Show us the surgery, show us the results, and let the success speak for itself.

Dem go call you hater now.

God bless you. I was waiting to see details about the surgery nothing was provided just hailing up amd down.

Lol. Make dem continue

The invite.
9/10.

Serious movie wrapped up in comedy. Seth Rogen is as always the bomb in delivering " dry bar" comedy. He had me laughing most of the time particularly when the discussion moved sexual.

I really get the movie the end was particularly deep. The conversation between the couple and prnelope cruz ( been a while I've seen her ).

Olivia wilde killed her role moving from anxious to excitement to resentment and finally quiet supportive acceptance.

Edward Norton was also quite good.

The cast killed his movie and if it weren't for the comedic bits I would have said Oscar in the calling.

Worth a watch yes highly recommended.

MSGAMBLE9:
Wawu 💯😃... But shiit just got real as it seems not only the Hell but also the box office also answers to Doom....

Doomday is tracking for over $1.5B opening weekend with unprecedented $40M tickets sold already....

Just wait and see.

I remember after I saw infinity war I said end game would be the highest grossing movie of all time and it did just that for a while.


Here's another one poised to smash through that record. That's the plan.

Just wait and see of this I have no doubt. Don't fade any avengers movie

SUNDAY MOVIE
Rocky (1976)

Got the urge to get into Creed last year and then decided to just go the whole way and get into the Rocky franchise.

Watching this today and then only God knows when I'll watch the sequel

Watch 1 to 4 skip the rest.

SOZINN:
Meanwhile.

As all things should be.

I don't think his surprises anyone.

Wait for doomsday and raise your hands in awe.
