Perception is everything bro. You made some pretty good points with the geenofgeek.com analysis. Buh still Prison Break ranks in my top five TVseries of all time, maybe it's just my sheer likeness for its actors, I dunno

Seriously tho, I love arguments like this.
Honestly, a riots of doubts is crashing in my mind.
The riots of doubts you're now having is not bad. As learned and rational beings, we ought to scrutinize some things that doesn't sit right with us.

My criticism of Money Heist is not because it has plot holes. Far from it. If I decide to drop movies or shows coz of plot holes, I wouldn't have watched a lot of shows or movies. My criticism is coz I don't want the producers to keep dragging on the show till it becomes bland. They'd know when to quit in order to preserve the cult status of the show.

The producers of GoT almost ruined it with final season but at least they quit at the right time though not with quality scripting. I like Money Heist but the show should've ran its due course by now.

Hehehe
Can you give us facts and figures....don't just spew bullshit on this platform.

I know Prison Break dropped in ratings season 3 upwards buh its still a hit, financially and other factors considered. Prison Break is up there with some of the best series of all time. Suck that up!

Make your own research. Ratings are used to judge movies and TV shows. When the ratings start diminishing, the series loses its credibility.

I am not a huge fan of series, I started my series journey with Smallville and Prison Break season 1 and 2. Even after watching 24, I swore that Prison Break would be in my top 5 no matter what. That was how much I loved the series. All that changed when the producers ruined it with watered down and dumb storyline in other seasons. The producers were keen on making more money but it forever ruined all the glory and effort of season 1.


Right now, Prison Break won't be in top 20 series of any credible site coz of dumb scripting. You won't understand the effect the dumb and unwanted plots are having on the rep of La Casa de Papel until 10 years from now when solid Spanish series are out there and nobody would be mentioning Money Heist in their top 5 Spanish TV shows.

I watched it too, skipping all those soppy parts.

There were no valid basis for Tokyo taking over Palermo as the leader, none at all.

Like someone said earlier, it's another telenovela with guns.
This season 4 is annoyingly irritating even though I'm not quitting. The show producers just want to milk the show for the hype it is getting while penning down mediocre plot.

The show will end up just like Prison Break which went from batshit good to dumpster fire. If it's not family issue, it's love issue or relationship problems. Tokyo taking over makes no damn sense. They'd just end the show after season 5 before they ruin it further.

Some Nairalanders can be damn funny. What's the yardstick for measuring a successful series?
Prison break 3 and the rest have an average rating of 8 on IMDB. Yes! It might drop compared to the recent seasons buh its still a mega success.
Save all these ur movie superiority speech and enjoy what you like.
You definitely doesn't know what success means

Prison Break, rubbish? C'mon, ur speculation is getting outta hands.
And its ur type that will be comparing GOT and WITCHER.

Like the guy said; sit down, abeg!
Read and comprehend. He said Prison Break became rubbish AFTER season 2 and he's right. The ratings dropped from season 3 as they kept dragging the show.


Sometimes, the producers forget to leave when the ovation is high. Money Heist should've ended in season 2. I'm still following it but I know deep within me, that season 3 or 4 should not have been produced.

This movie is one of the most touchy movies I’ve ever watched.

Beorn,have you watched this movie?
I haven't watched it. The ratings are not encouraging enough for me to take the plunge

Thanks alot, but it isn't working
I get surprised when the other person said the link is not working. It's working fine on my browser very well. Click on the download option, sometimes it might take you to AD page, just close the ad page and go back and click it again. It'll open up to the place to put the password. Put the password, it will open to the links page.

Clink on the first link, even if it directs to an ad page, close the ad page and go back to main page and click on the download options until the download pops up and you click on it and download.

I enjoyed this live grin grin grin
So the first time Mercy went to inspect her house before she bought it, it was Frodd nwanne m that took her there.

Dalu Frodd.
Frodd and Lambo became buddies outside the house. I never expected it given that they use to argue from time to time inside the house.


Staying in that house messes up with one's psyche sometimes.

Just say that you don't understand the movie and it is not in the category of movies you enjoy and keep your ratings to yourself. You and some others on this forum have this false belief of being a connoisseur of movies. If you cannot make sense of Knives Out you belong to the category of people that needs a lecture from Michael Scorsese on what movies are about.
Never take that guy's ratings serious for your own sake. He's the only troll on earth that gave the movie such a rating.

So i just finish watching The letter for the king guys if i am to rate it exaggeratedly it will be -1/10 but if i am to rate it, it will be 4/10 .........first of all the series is childish it is more appealing to children, it will make more sense to people that just finish secondary school and want to write JAMB coz it is for them, Secondly, i don't understand that horse always coming from nowhere to save the day what kind of a horse does that in fact the horse is meant to be made the lead character ............ If you are like me who believe that the most Nigerian movies dont have ending coz they cant even tap into 1% of their brain to make a good ending to most of their movies, you should check this series it is F**ked up, the climax of the series is sh*t, after revealing the letter to the king i thought there was going to be a great outbreak of war or whatever it later turns out that it was a battle btw light and darkness yeah light light [/b]that shines and [b]darkness when there is no[b] light[/b] in fact am even annoyed typing this sh*t
The cover picture of the series should've told you, you're going to regret your quest. Well, I'm sure you're a lover of CW series or in your teenage years that's why you went ahead to download a series that looks childish from the cover

The questions Mercy were asked during the isolation games last night were compiled by Diane.

Macbeth (2015)........6.5/10


Mehn, this Shakespearean English just dey destroy person faculties. It's more or less a Play. Decent Performance from Michael Fassbender and Marrion Cottillard.
Nice unique styling or color tone. Rich dialogue.
That movie bored me to death back when I watched it. So damn boring but the dialogues were nice.

Yes it flopped because of COVID but I’m of the opinion that it will flop even without any disease
Yes, it COULD have flopped without the pandemic, but we will never know. What is a fact now is that Covid-19 made it flop.

And one of my Box office predictions has come to pass: Bloodshot is an Epic effing BOMB!!! cheesy grin

I already said it Vin Diesel's star Power can't save this.

Imagine a comic book Movie with just $45mn budget struggling to even surpass $25mn worldwide?? shocked in 2020??
Dude, is your Google not working or what? Bloodshot was released on the 13th of March. Are you not aware of the Corona madness?

You can't use this period to really judge. All movies premiering in this period would flop even if it has been generally predicted to do well at the Box Offfice.

Funny how nobody is talking about Disney's Onward and The Call of the Wild both underperforming and bombing in the box office.

Imagine a Disney Pixar cartoon performing that poorly, no noise. But if na WB with small budget flicks na rowdy noise you go dey hear and analysis.
You're not revealing the real reason Onward flopped and that's because of the Corona virus. Even if Endgame was released now, it'd flop. Who will go to the cinema to see the movie when Europe, China and all countries are in self-isolation?

Any movie released in mid to late February will flop in US.

Everything is not an avenue to fight. Jeez!! Calma calma. I never said Tacha attended the award, did I? I only corrected your statement that AMVCA said that about Tacha. They didn't, a fake handle did but the verified handle didn't.

I'm not trying to start a debate or E-fight over something that shouldn't ever lead to one. You simply made a mistake and I corrected you. I've made mistakes in the past, it's no big deal. Why are you being feisty over it?
