Aquaman will be recognized next year nomination not this year
Aquaman was nominated in top 20 list for Oscars but did not make top 10 list.
That is shocking for a movie with groundbreaking visuals.

It will win many awards for its visuals next year.
But for Oscars it will never be nominated again.

you don't need to know the population of those "fictional" planets you just need to grasp the scope of what thanos did ....again reiterating that earth was not the only planet thanos halved its life...earth was not the reason thanos did what he did more life a very minute fraction of a much larger whole

So you'll make use of the statistics that obviously does not apply to this numbers because you do not want to forge numbers?? ...okay...

Earth in the marvel universe is completely fictional ...unless you can show me billionaires with flying suits or green gods or actual gods ...I'll settle for seeing wakanda tho...

You didn't respond to my last paragraph
Earth may be fictional in marvel universe.

But it is only real planet there is with life.

There is data and statistics for the planet we know.

So we use it to make an example.

Population growth in one planet is already a problem.

The last paragraph.

This is the lamest excuse I have seen.

Take a look at the world you live in and tell me that humans are running out of land.

There is so much empty land in the world.
What humans are lacking is housing.
Population is growing and humans are looking for places to live.
So more estates are built and more cities are developed.

Take a road trip or a plane to another state in Nigeria.
When you are in a plane, do look down.
You will see the massive stretch of empty land with no houses or infrastructures.
Just trees and vegetation.

Humans are not running out of land.. Duh.

Friedyokes:
your math is taking in account the breeding of 7 billion people not 3.5billion...so the fundamentals of your math is flawed...

Thanos ended half the life of the universe not just earth ...so what you see as unethical may have saved countless lives across countless planets...

Why do you feel the answer is food "Why not double food and put an end to world hunger using reality stone." What about land ...he should create food for the countless planets and while he's at it he should create spare planets for them to store the food and land for when the population outgrows the planet
I don't know the population of Titan, Knowhere or whatever fictional planet in Marvel universe.

I'm dealing with the real one here... Earth.
I have data and statistics for this particular planet.

You want to throw statistics away cuz I don't know the breeding power of 3.5 billion people.
Sorry bro... I will not forge numbers in my head.
So I will make use of the current statistics for today's world to set an example.

And when you put that into consideration...world population growth is already a problem.

Thanos may be saving other fictional planets but definitely not Earth.

what ?? So as it stands in 45 years there will be 14 billion people on earth??
Population in the world is currently (2018) growing at a rate of around 1.09% per year (down from 1.12% in 2017 and 1.14% in 2016). The current average population increase is estimated at 83 million people per year.

Using this current statistics and IF the rate of population growth doesn't get any lower.

Yes there will be 14 billion in the world in the next 45 years.

But hopefully that will not happen because more people are learning about family planning and other ways to prevent pregnancy.

The rate of population growth is going down.
It was 1.14% in 2016
1.12% in 2017 and 1.09% in 2018.

Friedyokes:
what ?? So in 45 years there will be 14 billion people on earth??
Let's go back to the basics using the current world population.

According to research, the estimated population of the world is 7 billion people.

Thanos wipes out half.

3.5 billion survive.

Population in the world is currently (2018) growing at a rate of around 1.09% per year (down from 1.12% in 2017 and 1.14% in 2016). The current average population increase is estimated at 83 million people per year.

Using the current statistics...

Population will increase by 830 million every ten years.

In 45 years 3.5 billion will double back up to 7 billion.

This is a simple math...

I don't know why these Marvel fans will not get it.
One of them was quoting 200 years because he lives on Pluto... He knows nothing about Earth.

there were so many things i didn't like in the movie ...but this wasn't one them....thanos' was 100% correct ....if there was more life to resource ratio ....eventually all life(most life) will cease as the resources will all be consumed and people will start dieing or start fighting wars to claim the available resource which will still lead to the loss of a substantial number of lives ....which is what thanos did but faster ...you think its unethical because he killed them all quickly ...its like saying letting a thousand people die today and then in the next year no one dies is unethical but then letting a thousand people die over the course of a year is ethical.... Thanos seeing this decided to stop the suffering that was sure to come...why should everyone die ....it was "mercy"
Did you miss the part where I said population will double back up in 45 years. huh

Which kind mercy huh

Bro... You are showing genocidal tendencies.

Thanos killed trillions and this mofo thinks in 10 years the population will grow back undecided

Thanos is far better than the cave troll in BvS,list better villains from the DCEU or any DC film than thanos, I'll wait
In 10 years population will rise significantly by 830 million.
In 45 years population of 3.5 billion has doubled.

Go and do a little research on world population growth before you start talking nonsense.

A visually stunning movie like Aquaman got snubbed
as ten films remain in contention for the visual effects Oscar® and Aquaman isn’t one of them. The ten semi-finalists, five of which will make the final list of nominees, are listed below.

Ant-Man and the Wasp
Avengers: Infinity War
Black Panther
Christopher Robin
First Man
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
Mary Poppins Returns
Ready Player One
Solo: A Star Wars Story
Welcome to Marwen

How many of these listed movies had better groundbreaking and stunning visuals than Aquaman huh

Aquaman is arguably the most visually stunning movie of the year.

Screw the Oscars angry

Miggs you still think these awards are to be taken seriously. undecided

How did they snub something like this... huh

armadeo:
Half of all life can never be replaced in 100 years not to talk of 10. If half of the worlds 7 billion people are wiped out in one " snap" we won't see that population again in the next 200 years.

The plan has logic to it but as I said its unethical.

Food growth cannot meet up population explosion. So reduce the population.

P.s my 5 minutes of the day
In 10 years it will not return to the way it was but it will rise again, that is my point.

The moronic plan does not leave a permanent solution.
He has to do it again and again until he gets tired.

Did I mention the gauntlet will take damage with each snap.

You also missed the part where I said areas of the world with abundant food would still be cut in half undecided

And why can't the reality stone double food production to meet up with the population huh

Defend Thanos all you want but he's a slowpoke through and through.

His plan sucks.

Population in the world is currently (2018) growing at a rate of around 1.09% per year (down from 1.12% in 2017 and 1.14% in 2016). The current average population increase is estimated at 83 million people per year.

In 10 years population will rise significantly by 830 million.
In 45 years population has risen and another 3.5 billion people has been added.
So yes, I'm correct.

It will not take 200 years for a population of 3.5 billion to double.
Stop telling lies.
It will only take 45-50 years.

You should do some research on world population growth before you start talking anyhow. undecided

Bring statistics and facts.
Leave your fanboyism and sentiments at the door.

The movie was too cartooney but the way its fanboys sang its praise annoyed and still annoys me.
Thanos was even the worst part of that trainwreck.He was overpowered and his motivation was uninspiring and grotesque
I know we don't see eye to eye but I agree with you.

Thanos motivation is uninspiring and the plan to save the universe by wiping out 50% of life is moronic.

Population will grow again in about a decade.
So Thanos has to snap again every 10 years.

Plus whenever he snaps, gauntlet gets damaged.

Is this what he will be doing every 10 years huh

Why not double food and put an end to world hunger using reality stone.

BTW the gauntlet doesn't cherry pick which part of the world to spare.
So the areas in the world with abundant food would still be cut in half.

Moronic plan.

Did Marvel studios think only children and teenagers will watch this film huh
That it will not be easy to poke a hole in Thanos master plan. undecided

Thanos is just another Doomsday villain who thinks he's saving the world.



As far as motivations and plans are concerned, I have seen better villains in super hero films.

johnyace:
just when I was thinking of posting this here
I wanted to confirm if this is really happening or just some fanboy art.
I am patiently waiting for its premiere
But why wasn't cyborg included in the Titans TV show
Cyborg is an original member of Teen Titans but Titans season 1 has ended already.
Season 2 will premiere in October next year and by that time Doom Patrol season 1 which starts in February must have ended.

So Cyborg will be introduced in Doom Patrol and join up with Titans in season 2.

This is my prediction for Cyborg, I don't know if they will go with it but it's a good plan.
TV/Movies › Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by BlackManta(m):
DC streaming service keeps surprising me.
First they debuted with a serious and mature show like Titans and now we getting a Doom Patrol TV show.

For a low budget TV show, this is what Cyborg looks like and it's amazing.

I know I'm gonna get a lot of hate for this but this Cyborg looks better than what I saw in Justice League and it holds so much promise as well.

We talking low budget TV show not hundreds of millions.

This is insane. shocked

Minemrys, Tonyspike are you seeing this.. shocked

BTW it's not CGI...

The DC shows on CW would rather have a CGI mess.
They still dey learn work.

An argument can be made about the first two - they were really good. Then, Michael Bay happened.

Bumblebee has rekindled an ailing franchise, and has breathed new life into it. I hope it stays this way.
It's a pity Bumblebee won't be a box office titan like other Transformers movies thanks to Aquaman.

Michael Bay ruined whatever promise that franchise has left.
Movie goers are getting tired of the franchise.

Hopefully Bumblebee will bring some sort of revival.

You are fake,confused and not as intelligent as you think you are.

Feminism
LGBT
Liberalism etc...

But I'm also a fan of equity and fairness.

Giving something undeserved special treatment just to pander to the LGBT, feminist, liberals and SJW's is NOT equity and fairness.

For instance even though I'm all for LGBT rights, I will never support Kevin Hart getting kicked out from hosting Oscars cuz of LGBT jokes he made years ago.

Now that's unfair.

Mind you.. A great movie like Logan did not get a golden globe nomination during it's time.

A movie like Moonlight got undue got undue recognition just to pander to the LGBT populace in America.

There are better dramas this year that got overlooked so that golden globe could pander to the blacks and cover up the racism in these awards using black Panther.

Like it or not this is another kind of racism.

We have had White Privilege in these awards.

Let the guy be.He is an advocate of the "woke" trend.There will be nothing wrong in Black Panther getting Oscar nominations in the costume and musical score categories
It got a nomination for Golden globe best drama.
The movie is not much of a drama and there are much better dramas this year that got overlooked just so that golden globe could pander to the blacks and give them a sense of equality in these awards even though the movie is highly undeserving.

I get it that all these big movie awards are overstuffed with racism over the years and blacks were being overlooked.
But that doesn't mean a movie should get undeserved nomination because of race.

A movie should be nominated and praised because it truly deserves it not because of race or pandering.

Arguably the BEST Transformers film by a mile. Fun, upbeat, and more than a just a gigantic robot p*rn. 2nd best movie of the year after Infinity War.

8.2/10.

Some people are psychopaths and see any woman as sex objects. So a woman that covers her face and body can still be alluring to them. Because they get pleasure from raping, overpowering people.

I don't support Harrasment talkless of Sexual harrasment.

If the devil angrytempt you with evil will you overcome it? NO. And yet he will accuse you for doing it before God.

So why you tempt a man with your unclothedness and blame him.

Most men don't masturbate unless they watch pornography or wickedly erotic happens. So why bring it to their faces when YOU KNOW it creates a surge of hormones. You are tempting him and also accusing him for his actions "like your father the devil angry is doing".

Bible said "if eating/drinking before your brother will cause him to fall do not do it. Why cause your brother to stumble for whom Christ died for"? 1 Cor 8:13
Romans 14:21

It was when Eve saw the fruit that she desired it. All those while, she NEVER desired it until the devil made her LOOK WELL. Now you as a spectator, do u blame Eve or the devil for the fall of man?

Let the women stop doing devil's work for him. Tempting and blaming.
You are right.

We must also blame the women in hijab and minors for getting raped angry

that's cause Wonder woman is a feminist oriented m0vie. If i talk n0w Xavier would say am anti feminism.
It's impossible to make a female led superhero movie without coming out as feminist oriented.
It's inevitable in today's world especially with people like you who take anything 'girl power ' to be an avenue to promote feminism.

The only way Wonder Woman would have avoided the tag of 'feminist oriented ' is for Steve Trevor to become the main hero of the story and for Diana to be relegated to supporting hero or worse... A damsel in distress.

You see.. That is impossible.
