RayMcBlue: Maybe it's just me, but I think "Poussey" rhymes with "Pússy" - what a silly name to name one's child.

Vee's death was just ridiculous and poorly thought out by the writers. I mean you escape from prison through a secret tunnel and then decided to hitch a ride the rest of the way or what? And you don't think to stay away from the road or away from a vehicle that looks like one operated by the Department of Corrections? C'mon, who does that. That was just unbelievable!

But the dark knight rises was a failure tho(didn't live up to expectation like The first Dark Knight. Movie)
The TDKR cannot be termed a failure. It was fairly successful.

The picture of the Apple headphone on the first page is suspect, most likely an artist's render and not an actual product.

JustCalMeDBoss: Not tryin to burst anyones bubble but half of a yellow sun is the greatest flop of a movie produced by nollywood. Not saying its good for it to be pirated either. I actually told ma frnds in the us and uk to go watch that movie buh dey said they could not find it. The norm was for d movie to go thru festivals, and in hope for them to see a distributor buh alas no body wanted to distribute it. Check boxoffice mojo and u can see d film has barely made a $100000 wen the film was advertised to be made with $8 million men those guys are in real soup.
Lol@ those guys are in real soup.
grin cheesy
TV/MoviesRe: Who Is To Blame For The Piracy Of Half Of A Yellow Sun? by Bawss1(m):
Piracy had little to do with the movie bumming in the box office. Movie producers should stop using this as an excuse, the fact remains that people were not interested in seeing the movie in droves.

HOAYS was released first in the US and UK no, and in those markets (where it was hoped to make the bulk of its sales) it performed poorly. Did anyone pirate it there? In fact movies that are successful are the ones that witness a lot more piracy. This movie simply failed to pull in the crowd because of the way it was marketed or because it was deemed uninteresting by the public certainly not because of the infamous Alaba boys.

Content creators, i.e producers, artists etc, since the advent of the digital age have blamed piracy for the poor performance of their works when in truth their problem lies in the fact that they have failed to employ hese modern avenues of file distribution ... or simplify because their works aren't interesting enough.

ERTHAENIGMA: give them a year. Wolverine would be back. Did they not kill peter parker? Steve rogers? Jean grey? Death is hardly a big deal nowadays in comics
The writers insist that Wolverine will stay dead this time.

huh

Half of a Yellow is not a Nollywood movie.

moneyallowed: You nailed it mate; that's the condition. no matter how they wanna spin it, it HAS to make sense. Guess we'll see just how creative that "creative team" really is.
jeez I forgot.....Wolverine is dying too....so much to look forward to in comics this year!
Yeah comics are really getting interesting now. Peter Parker dies and Octavius replaces him in the Superior Spiderman.
Wolverine is dead too.

grin

Seems people aren't bothered much with Steve Rogers giving up the Captain America mantle - or should I say shield - to his ally Sam Wilson AKA the Falcon.
TV/MoviesRe: Thor Will Now Officially Be a Woman in Marvel Comics by Bawss1(m): 4:54pm On Jul 19, 2014
Oahray: Thor the marvel character exists because there is a mythological Thor. If you are going to be original, be original. But if you are going to adapt a storyline, stay true to the basic building blocks.

Comic is a flowing line, the characters' present has to proceed from the past. Characters are even treated like real people. When you make sudden senseless changes, you lose that effect on your fans.

What of the past marvel comics on a male Thor and his Asgard people? They need not adhere with that too?
Yup, the writers are under no compulsion to depict their characters in accordance with the myths. Besides this change is understandable given the context (as revealed so far). Thor is said to have committed a grave mistake and deemed unworthy of weilding Mjolnir. The woman who takes over does so because she is worthy of the hammer... Thor the son of Odin still exists but he is without Mjolnir.

Personally I'm not thrilled with this change but thats for totally different reasons than expressed on this thread. I believe that all portrayals of the female sex, even in the arts, should be in line with their delicateness. A woman weilding a hammer as a weapon... undecided But that's a discussion for another day.

sarutobie: do you know how many dinosaur models have been disproved time and time again by the very same people? what they do most times is scientific assumptions...take their findings and theories with a pinch of salt..
Please name just one prehistoric creature that was "disproved".

If anything it's the classifications or understanding of said prehistoric creatures that are disputed. It is without doubt that they existed and with time we will continue to see more of these findings.

mfm04622: You still read comics?
Nobody should be ashamed of reading comics. It is a respectable pastime like watching movies or reading books. Besides it is one of the best ways to put tablet computers to good use. smiley

Oahray: dude do yourself a favour and read up Norse mythology so you can update your knowledge. Thor doesn't begin and end with marvel comics. It's like movie producers making Achilles female.

Start by searching the "meaning of Thursday"
The public's interest here is on Thor the marvel character not the Norse mythology. Marvel can do whatever they wish with their characters, they need not adhere to the mythological storyline.

sarutobie: without some of these lies the likes of National geographic will go out of business..
How is all this a lie? It is very ridiculous when people dismiss these findings without offering a reasonable counter or superior argument. These archeological and prehistoric findings are all there to be seen, they have occurred in practically all the continents and they can be scientifically verified.

And how old is man on earth?
Science is full of contradictions.

These lies will all be exposed one fine day.
Is man not believed to have appeared about 2 million years ago? Where is the contradiction there?
Science/TechnologyRe: New Feather Dinosaurs Discovered In China by Bawss1(m): 9:31am On Jul 19, 2014
Too many dumb people on this thread. Many of them incapable of understanding science because they hold rigid religious views. It's a shame really.

PoliticsRe: Malaysian Plane Downing A U.S. False Flag OP by Bawss1(m): 2:45pm On Jul 18, 2014
It this kind of reasoning that later reduces people to become puppets of extremists and terrorists. When an individual, though seemingly educated, gives room to completely wild conjectures without allowing for the possibility that his ideas are wrong or even unfounded then all hope is lost. All that remains is for a dark minded soul to get in touch with said deluded individuals and compel them to act on their madness and the cycle of insanity is maintained.

OP calm down.

PhonesRe: Microsoft Considering Bringing Cortana To Android And iOS Devices by Bawss1(m): 9:35pm On Jul 17, 2014
oyb: I used win 8.1 update 1 for two months. My laptop gave up the ghost, and I didn't bother instaling on my replacement. Metro knocks all the win 8 gains. All sorts of wandering whenever I wanted to change a setting. Then the metro apps taking full screen even after installing Metromix or wetinthemcall am.

If you have a tablet (which for all the hype is mostly practical as a entertainment device) you wwill probably enjoy win 8.but if u use a pc for work,you will soon get tired of win 8
This is what I don't understand. Most people do most of their work in Desktop why bother with Metro if it's a distraction? 8.1 even makes it easier by allowing the system to boot directly to desktop.

No way I'm getting tired of Win8/8.1, heck I want more of it. Simple tasks like copying files are faster than they were back on win7 and honestly with the stronger Windows Defender one doesn't really need a third party antivirus software.

Hey Microsoft if you are reading this, you know I will make an excellent addition to your PR team. cool
