SkylineFrozen:The 480p link in that post is around 450mb. |
JeromeBlack:Exactly how I feel. I made a huge mistake of not cross-checking on the Internet to see the ratings before I downloaded, now I'm left with rued decision. I can't believe I fell for its hype on this thread. SMH. Hotel Artemis 5/10. |
Ishilove:LOL. It's horror, I even doubt there's any element of thriller inside it. |
rawdpiper:I suck at the horror movie genre. I hardly watch them so can't list much. Here's few I know.. It Drag Me To Hell Get Out Saw part I to V Final Destination franchise Anabelle Anabelle Creation The Others It Follows Insidious Chapter 1 & 2 Autopsy Of Jane Doe Don't Breathe |
DandeNumeruno:Koice has already taken care of this. ![]() |
olu4life:I'll take it that the "you" being referred to was me since you mentioned me. @emboldened, that's a big fat lie. - It's either you have seen the ratings people have dropped in recent times here but in your one-sided mission to slander me, chose to act like nobody drops ratings anymore because of insults OR - You weren't paying attention to details and missed the ratings OR - You're to yet figure out that there are not reasonable or anticipated NEW movies out for digital downloads except for the Likes of Mamma Mia 2, hence why the ratings are sparse. I accept my wrong in insulting the guy after initially keeping my cool, but the fact that you clearly advised ONLY one faction whilst ignoring the other faction that insulted as well, makes me doubt your peacekeeping mission. Lastly, I didn't see this your words when the guy you are shielding pounced on the rating of Ibkayee_ and told her to not rate movie of a genre she's not a fan of. The guy had also an accomplice that supported his trashing of _Ibkayee's rating, but shockingly, you said no word and suddenly you typing these words to me and ignoring the other party. Hypocritical much? I don't even know how to address your subtle aspersion at me about my "bullshitt opinion" about your ratings when I've never in my time on here quoted you directly to rubbish your ratings. I'm convinced your lies against me has nothing to do with this episode but rather a pent up beef you decided to vent using this episode. P.S: Koice and Jeromeblack had in the time past disagreed with my ratings on some movies, but we discussed it maturely and I never got emotional about it, but once someone has a differing opinion to your rating, y'all go ballistic. It amazes me most times. Apologies to ThekingIsHere for the insults. |
TheKingIsHere:No wonder. I didn't freak out in Hereditary and The Shining therefore they are not horror. What a dumb reasoning. Can't believe I wasted my time on you. SMH! |
TheKingIsHere:You're kidding, right? So, Golden Globe, a credible award body were foolish not to realise it's a thriller ab initio? Peele, nko? He's dumb as well despite being the director. Oscars, nko? they're dumb for labeling it a horror movie. Everybody on earth were wrong except Universal and you. I'm done with you. Bye! |
TheKingIsHere:Supernatural is a SUB-GENRE, Horror is the MAIN genre. Some sub-genres of horror film include action horror, comedy horror, body horror[4], disaster horror, found footage[5], holiday horror, horror drama, psychological horror[6], science fiction horror, slasher, supernatural horror, gothic horror, natural horror, zombie horror, first-person horror, and teen horror.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horror_film |
TheKingIsHere:Therefore Peele the director was dumb as well, innit? Also Universal said it's comedy and submitted it as a comedy, you used Golden Globe award to back it up, meaning Universal were dumb before realising their mistake while Golden Globe was stupid for the comedy award they gave it when it was a thriller, innit? ![]() |
TheKingIsHere:I've replied you in my penultimate post. |
TheKingIsHere:LMAO. So, after saying Koice is dumb for going against the opinion of Peele, you went right ahead to discard Peele's opinion who said it had no genre? So, who's the the dumb one now? ![]() |
TheKingIsHere:Looks like Universal and Peele are not the only clueless people on earth, they've got you on their Kool aid too. So, suddenly you can't even describe Get Out?
|
KoiceReloaded:I don't want to sound offensive, but what I'm witnessing right now is unprecedented foolishness on an alarming scale. My God!! ![]() |
TheKingIsHere:So describe Get Out to us using Peel and Universal's genre. No too type much, describe the movie for us. Be fast. |
TheKingIsHere:Where the fuck_ is the correlation between your thesis and the question I asked? Should I write the question in Pidgin if English language is the problem? Please describe Get Out to me using Peele and Universal's genres. I'm waiting. |
TheKingIsHere:Let me get this straight, so when asked to describe Get Out, you''ll say; "It's a comedy, speculative thriller and documentary, but at the end, it has no genre (taking in cognizance the opinions of Peele and Universal as your benchmark)"? Doesn't that sound extremely dumb to you? ![]()
|
TheKingIsHere:The emboldened is wrong. A movie CANNOT be sub-genre, RATHER a movie CAN HAVE a sub-genre but MUST HAVE A MAIN GENRE. |
TheKingIsHere:Bro, an Aba shoemaker can decide to market his self-made shoes as Gucci, does it make a Gucci shoe? Absolutely not. Same way the director or marketer can decide to market a film in a genre that wasn't made to be its primary genre. The expose by you should've told you why the director and Universal are clueless. Let me expantiate. 1. Universal, according to you, submitted it as a comedy. 2. Peele, the director immediately rejected that notion. 3. Universal, aware of their gaffe and cluelessness changed the genre to Speculative Thriller. Another confusion from Universal. This showed that they're clueless. 4. Peele then decided to join in the comedic show by labelling it a documentary which IMHO, it's not. Get Out had absolutely nothing to do with documentary. 5. Peele having realized he's clueless and wrong in labeling it a documentary, then took foolishness to a whole different level by saying it had no genre. That right there shows Peele was high on crack when he said that because no movie ever made doesn't fit into a genre. So. despite all these tomfoolery by Peele and Universal, you chose to join them and chose TWO opinions over the opinions of several film critics? ![]() |
JeromeBlack:I watch everything watchable, bro, as long as it's movies and has good rating or good casts. ![]() I watched Highschool Muscial (part 1 only) as a younging, but I'll never try it now that I'm older. That said, Mamma Mia is just a chick flick, not a gay-esque movie. ![]() |
JeromeBlack:Very easy to comprehend, I don't understand why the guy is fighting hard to have the last laugh. It's tiring. ![]() |
Mamma Mia!: Here We Go Again. 5/10. Weak story-line just like its predecessor, saved again only by the ABBA classic songs, but it's the "same 'ol shyte, just a different day" as long as I'm concerned. Not impressed at all. ![]() |
TheKingIsHere:You're missing the salient points. To break it down in its simplest form, Koice was trying to tell you that: 1. Get Out has its MAJOR/PRIMARY genre as HORROR before its sub-genre could be whatever you, the director or the award organizers decide to tag it 2. While Upgrade has its MAJOR/PRIMARY genre as SCI-FI before its sub-genre could be whatever you, the director or the award organizers decide to tag it. I hope you got the difference? |
KoiceReloaded: ![]() I've come to notice that most Nigerians, at least 95% of my friends are only interested in "action movies" or movies with a lot of fights. So, movies like Memento, The Others, etc., that have to do with intelligence, I don't give them out because they'll tell me that it's boring. They just want an adrenaline filled action movies. Typical Naija guys. ![]() |
KoiceReloaded:LOL @the emboldened. ![]() True though. Only ABBA musicals were the positives in that chick-flick. I dare not send it to my friends when they come pestering me for movies because I'm dead sure they'd delete it 5 minutes into the movie while calling me to ask; "Beorn, which kain nonsense movie you give me so? I be like dancer for your eye?" ![]() |
ibkayee:I have a friend based abroad that always think saying some movies are "girlie" makes me a sexist. She's a feminist, I guess that's why she sees error in some perfectly innocuous descriptions. ![]() |
JeromeBlack:My bad then, I thought it did. But I insist, it not coming to Naija cinemas had nothing to do with superstition. What's even superstitious about the movie that other horror movies that have been shown in our cinemas don't have? Or you think cinema owners give a hoot about any worthless superstition when there's money to be made? my theory why it wasn't shown is; it's probably because it's a low budget movie and it had no major star attractions in its cast, hence no massive hype surrounding it before people discovered it's a nice horror movie. It's probably why it wasn't really considered to be shown in our cinemas then. I mean, I even initially refused to watch it due to I'd some suspicions over the movie and its lesser known actors until my cousin convinced me to watch it. |
JeromeBlack:Haba!! Despite your biased feeling towards "gay ass musicals", zero rating is way too extreme to give Mamma Mia! |
JeromeBlack:You're wrong to assert such. Nigerians are way too superstitious, but other horror movies have been shown in the cinema too, so Get Out not coming out in our cinemas had nothing to do with superstition, that's if you're 100% sure the movie was shown in the cinemas in the first place. |
ibkayee:If you're a big fan of ABBA, you'll enjoy the part 1 because while the storyline was weak to me, the classic ABBA ballads were strong enough to power it through, plus I think it's a "girlie" (I hope I'm not coming off as a sexist using that phrase) film. I think you'll love it. The songs got me reminiscing of my childhood days and made me remember it's been over 10 years since I last played an ABBA song. Mamma Mia! 6/10. I'll download the second part later today and see if it'll better than its predecessor. |
newjosboy:Any spoiler from you and I'll place you on a 3 year ban. ![]() |
