Donjazet2:
Seems like this thread has lost it's appeal that made it unique.

A whole champions league quarter final and it's barely moved 4 pages. That was previously unthinkable.

What has led to this?

Una dey -2 Goal difference for EPL table and u expect make thread dey move ?

Just dey play ! Dey do like say u no know say na goals dey make thread move on game days 🤣

It’s about to B(e)-RED like Davido’s cousin

popizaino:
No, i saw it,no need of replay......Real madrid scored so there must be your usual suspect to be blamed.

I'm sure you wouldn't have raised this your false alarm if Thiago Silva wasn't in the lineup but i understand agenda must agend.

Baba u dey fast, save ur energy for Raumdeuter when he comes calling with his gifs of ur MCM in the days ahead .

Itsrm:
Calm down

I like ur faith

I don’t even know why I didn’t bet the match witn u sef 🤦‍♂️

popizaino:
Where did you see linesman job there now? No wonder you support a team that will never lift the UCL.

When u watch the replay tomorrow like u always do, u will see it (Although I trust u to argue against it as usual )

I hope they randomly test Modric for drugs sha . Age no just gree catch up with the man !

raumdeuter:

Wetin him eyes dey see for Vinicius and Rodrigo hand

Ko se fenuso. Mouth no fit talk am finish

Those boys are very fast and dangerous

The the kind things Rodrygo and Valverde dey use Nche security do

raumdeuter:
Dem for give am flag make he see something to raise up
Abi Popizaino

When Alhaji Popi break fast finish he go come explain to us the with the aid of gifs; the linesman-ic role of Silva in that run of play

Raumdeuter see ur guy Thiago doing linesman job

Food don done 🍲

And the count begins !

Itsrm how many hours remaining laidis ?

Donjazet2:
Ohh, These were top notch series. Just calm down and watch them. It will definitely grow on you.

What of West wing, Fargo and succession, have you watched these series?

House of cards nko?

I’ve watched house of cards but I stopped midway. It’s one of the reasons hate series that are still airing on TV, I hate waiting for a whole year for another season release cos I’m a busy person and always lose interests in slow-paced series easily

A001:
Sane na Senegalese? How?

His father is a retired Senegalese player . How did u think he got that name Sane? It’s definitely not a German name u know ….

GloriousGbola:
A Hungry man is an angry man - dem no tell you?

He didn’t play until 70th minute na, he supposed don break fast since when he dey bench na

DeadPresidents:
E be like Sané been ball hog wella.

Amoto94, Is it permissible to fight in Ramadan?

If that’s the case, then something is wrong with Mane. Sane was obviously not Bayern’s problem in that match I watched yesterday ; their manager was simply outfoxed by Pep and dem collect .

The 20 minutes mane played sef he didn’t give account of himself like we know him to always do.

Make Mane really talk true wetin dey vex am; the story no clear

DeadPresidents:
E be like say Mane and Sane had a nigga-moment

Why mane dey para?

Donjazet2:
Which one's particularly have you not watched?

Desperate Housewives - I just don’t see myself watching it .

Ozarks - I watched it for a while but it was too dull for me

How to get away with murder - I watched few episodes and got tired

A001:
Yea, you said so that day.

If the union have actually petitioned NFVCB as they claimed in the letter , they(NFVCB) are most likely going to ban the movie in naija , but I don’t know how that works in this age of Amazon Prime, Netflix , and co that can still be accessed by Nigerians via internet .🤷🏼‍♂️

Donjazet2:
Okay so these are my very best season movies of all time! Across all genres.

What makes a good season movie for me are;

-wonderful storyline or scriptwriting, that is, good intricate interwoven plotlines that leave you wanting more. Eg, Breaking bad, sense8, the wire etc.
-Superb cinematic production value. Series that when you watch, you see that money was well spent, the asthetics, scenery and the likes were well crafted. Game of thrones, legend of seeker, the west wing.

Top notch Creativity.
Wonderful performances from the actors. Olivia pope in scandal, Annalise Keating in HTGAWM. Jack Bauer of 24 etc. Malik of mr robot. House of cards.

Of course educative and informative.

So these are my very best seasonal movies. Many possess all or most of the qualities i listed above. I just couldn't get enough. Although some disappointed with the endings but the vast majority were jaw dropping.

Ps; i love all genres of series apart from maybe "religious and conservative series". My favorite genre has to be political drama series. Any series that has the office of the president or a form of government intrigue, constantly features the white house or pentagon or other bureaucracy like the CIA, FBI or the likes. So sometimes this can mix up with detective series. But political dramas like west wing, house of cards, scandal, veep, 24 are some of my favorite.

In no particular order but my top 5 being the very best before the rest of the best.
The wire
Game of thrones
The west wing (i cannot overemphasize this series enough)
Breaking bad
24
Midnight mass
Squid games.
House of cards
Fargo
Ozarks
Peaky blinders
True detective
Homeland
Fringe
Mr robot.
Money heist.
Elite
Veep
How to get away with murder
Vikings
Scandal
Better call Saul
Boston legal
Person of interest
Suits
Desperate housewives.
Billions
Succession
Narcos
Criminal minds
Smallville (just personal appeal)
Madam secretary
The boys

There you have it!
There is not a single series you would watch on this list that you wouldn't enjoy and want more.
These are the very best of entertainment from my experience.

I’ve watched almost everything on the list except for a few handfuls which I chose not to watch just by reading the storyline online and found them not appealing .

A001:
Eyo people don vex, BlueRayDick

Below is my post immediately I finished watching the movie. I get friend wey dey carry Eyo that year and I knew serious misrepresentation of facts happened in that movie especially with the statement that “Eyo masquerades are the first gangs of Lagos “ . The level no pure .

It’s a good thing the concerned parties have come out to set records straight . I also saw vector just now on IG boiling seriously about the whole thing ; I’m sure some of the actors in the movie who are his friends will not be happy with his critique .

BlueRayDick:
The gangs of Lagos was a good one ; it wasn’t bad as I had thought .

I however have the following reservations:

1. I believe this kinda project is an opportunity to tell the story of a group of people ( in this case Lagosians ) ,but the producers chose to tell the wrong story . They could’ve talked about the hustle and bustle spirit of Lagos , not this gang wahala . I also find it difficult to connect the prologue of the movie where the commentator said “the first gang of Lagos “ are the eyo masquerades. The thing no make any logical sense and they didn’t do anything to try to link that statement with happenings in the movie as time goes on

A001:
Those oyingbos are mostly those from Brazil, Haiti, T&T, the US, Cuba, and other places where there are Yoruba settlements.

Other than that, any Oyinbo that attends the festival do so voluntarily for tourism or for pedagogical reasons.

But for Muslims in Africa and for Muslims generally, hajj is a must if you've the means. If you don't go, you've committed a great sin against Allah.

I was just playing the devil's advocate ni jare. I believe the arabs and the westerners who brought us religion did a number on our forefathers and somehow the grip is still tight on we their descendants. More like they broke them; beyond the guns,swords and cannons....like they broke something in them.

I know quite a number of people who beg, borrow and even cheat their way to gather money for pilgrimage only to come back to their normal lives.

afrodoc2:
Na their government dey foot the bill?

And if their government foots the bill, are they from I never chop countries?

Our own government is a a government that cares not only about our physical and mental well being ; but also our spiritual well being

afrodoc2:
Nigerian governments. Wasting public funds since 1861

Nothing wey I dislike pass make government dey sponsor people for pilgrimage . Some see it as a way of rewarding party faithfuls and grassroots mobilizers ; but I clearly see it as waste of public funds in such a way that the religious sentiments of the people would never allow them question such act of “benevolence “.

Methinks most of those governors who sponsor people on pilgrimage do not do so because they even believe in such ; most likely they pad the pilgrimage expenses and remove their own from it after getting approval of the people .

A001:
Dumb Africans go dey pay millions just to see the shrine (Mecca) of the deity called Allah in Saudi or the shrine of the deity called Yahweh in Israel.

I've never seen a more foolish people as Africans. Lols.

May the forces of the Universe help una brain evolve soon and realize that foolish people no dey develop and will always be slaves to more intelligent people like the Arabs and Europeans.

But some Oyinbos sef dey spend millions come Osun oshogbo festival now, some even spend money to come down to oshogbo to meet Baba Yemi Elebuibon to teach them IFA

Na Seankafor need this pilgrimage pass

I no wan hear say ur governor no do anything for u o

We will dump those overrated Spanish bums out of the Champions League.

KTBFFH

U don come with ur Wike-inspired predictions again

GloriousGbola:
the only way dino could have won is with Atiku backing him financially. the guy is imho stone broke. PDP is also broke. Adeleke did not win because of PDP support, but because he had the adeleke resources to prosecute the election. even if buhari militarizes the election to neutralize bellos thuggery, Dino does not even have significant grassroots support.

so a broke politician in a broke party without a significant political base in a state run by a lower case wike.



i suspect that Dino had at a point been banking on his campaign being bankrolled by Wike. dino is in a bad place. like the rest of PDP, they shafted wike, and they have nothing to show for it other than the closure of the money conduit from PH. assuming Wike's Godfather gambit in PH works out, any money disbursed from PH to PDP will be in measured trickles.

I agree with the bold 100%.

Dino go see shege during the campaigns, during elections and after elections . Bello will severely deal with Dino , even more than he dealt with the Natasha lady……I just fear for the innocent people of the state that will be caught up in the melee .

I don’t know the kind of politics they play in Kogi but I learnt the Okun people which Dino belongs to has not ruled the state since the advent of the 4th republic , Faleke wouldve also been the APC guy if both parties wanted to zone the ticket but since Faleke don get job for Abuja I don’t think APC will consider a less popular Okun person .

I sha know say Dino and Bello na thug life meets thug life….. One person use streets collobi the other

FBS:
LOL @ "actress"
