The sh*t happened to me too. Was on the weekend 3gig plan. First they said I had exhausted about 80% and 20mins later my remaining 500mb was gone without me doing nada on top their fluctuating network. The only network that shows hspa+ when in disguise it's a common edge network.

It's Easter, superman ought to have risen by now. jokes aside, the JL part 1 will tell us a lot more about the plots in BVS which still isn't clear cos I see DC storyline more like a continuity rather than a movie that starts and ends. One thing we don't know: will the movie begin in the immediate aftermath ofDawn of Justice(ie. with Superman still in the ground) or will it skip forward in time to allow for his inevitable resurrection? And perhaps more interestingly, who will lead the JL cos I think Supes supposed to be the frontrunner. I just hope they don't do a Wolverine/Cyclops shit like in the Xmen movies and place the Bat as the poster boy for JL, not that I don't like him tho.
BvS was good; certainly not the best but nothing as bad as it's made out to be. 8/10 and that's cos of the film's score/soundtrack was definitely one of the best I've heard. Got me on the edge most of the time in anticipation of what's next esp. during the fight scenes with doomsday.

So you're comparing Christ and Superman? Wow... these fanboys can never stop amusing me..
no... Kidding tho, but if i think that there's even a1% chance that the story is similar then i must take it as an absolute certainty that it is.

Snyder uses this movie to continue to push the Supes as a Christ like entity, and it so poetic. Half of the world loves Supes for what he can do, the other half is scared of what he can do. So the senate wants to control him and others want to destroy him, sounds biblically familiar? And what did Jesus do to save everyone, even those opposed to him? He sacrificed himself. Just like Supes did and he did it on good Friday non the less.....are you catching on yet? Now the world will understand what they had and wish he was back and he can become the Supes we all love. The resurrection of Superman will be unlike anything we have seen or can imagine. Read some comics and appreciate what they have done here.

think critics in a way kinda sold this movie. Everyone wants to see to form their base opinion and which should be so. Besides who can resist the urge to see three fav comic book characters on big screen.

“The interesting thing is that we get the critics who have their personal opinions. And the thing about personal opinions is that they always come from a place. And there’s a preconceived idea which you have to get past a critic before you start writing your article or your review, and that affects everything.- Henry Cavill in reply to critics.

“Well, what about ['Star Wars: The Force Awakens']? In ‘Star Wars’ they destroy five planets with billions of people on them. That’s gotta be one of the highest death toll movies in history, the new ‘Star Wars’ movie, if you just do the math.” Zynder in defense of MOS and upcoming BVS in an interview with wall street journal. He's got a point there.

Truly speaking, I am an artistic person who likes painting a lot. I would say Snyder's cinematography looks like framed paintings or collage, something extraordinary. The problem with that movie is mainly the script and I don't know why people are blaming Snyder for the little dialogues. Actors read their dialogues or lines from the script, which is always prepared by a screen writer and not a director. Heck, some even went as far as counting the number of lines from wonder woman, yeah, John Campea mentioned that Gal Gadot read only 16 lines throughout the movie, which is meagre. Can you imagine that sick observation? What kind of ridiculous scrutiny is that? Another commentary is the scattered editing of the movie which I could blame Snyder for. But , that is actually the fault of the movie editor, he determines which scenes to be deleted after full production, sometimes alongside the director. I am thinking that the huge 30 mins footage cut out from the movie accounted for these errors and consequently messed the chronology of scenes. All in all, I cannot totally blame Snyder for what those sick reviewers think went wrong. They have their gaddem opinions, but it appears many of them were highly prejudiced towards DC and Snyder already. They went into the movies with formed and biased mindset, thinking it would be a Disney honeymoon.
I feel u. Like I earlier said, a lot of people were opposed to Ben n Gal playing such iconic roles and have set their mind on that for a while now which makes it easier to critique. They say it's too realistic; Nolan's was. Zynder isn't trying to do a Nolan; he's portraying it his own way and that's why he didn't cast Bale as the Bat. And if he did something as close to Nolan's, he'll still be criticized as not being original. We've been spoiled with MCU coming out first and subconsciously people are using it to judge DCU. Not saying the movie will be the bestest but I'll like to give it a chance and watch it with an open mind.

Zack Synder is one of the visionaries of the whole DC universe, along with Nolan and Geoff Johns. I don't think he can be sacked because he has committed so much into the DC Universe. What I think might happen is that he might be paired with someone else to direct Justice League: Part One. Synder has one of the best visuals, a skill that is very scarce in Hollywood. I think most of the problems with BvS came from the script. The original script was written by David Goyer and was re-adjusted by Chris Terrio. The dialogues came from the script, so also the scene setup. I would want to assume that a director only magnifies whatever script was given to him, he can't change it.
yea, quite agree with the visuals. Reports coming in say the visuals and score are the movie highlights; it's captivating. They say the man in charge have got to win the oscar for picture.
TV/Movies › Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by charlesm91(m): 7:36am On Mar 24, 2016
Don't care about the critics, I'll see things for myself and from Zynders perspective given his take on previous films. I don't care if the movie is dark (batman is dark; superman I think is still trying to set his moral standard after MOS destruction), so yes I'm expecting a dark movie. As for the lack of humour some say it lacks, will have to wait and see. These characters naturally aren't humour type; Marvel are. I think it's a preconceived notion ever since the cast was made open that Affleck and Gaddot were gonna be used, and ever since it's been divided opinion. DC shouldn't tell stories like Marvel. Movies watchers should try and understand the angle DC is trying to sell.
TV/Movies › Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by charlesm91(m): 8:22pm On Mar 22, 2016
So far to me from what I perceive from online sources, the positives far outweighs the negatives and that's easily an 8+ for me. Will have to check it out myself cos I'm eagerly awaiting it's release here.

He's actually trying to ask if it has the same performance as the insider build.
it's same, no difference. Only thing is insiders get to use it first before it gets passed down to the masses. If you want to get back to official build just select production build in insiders app.

Christianity Etc › Re: Is Purgatory In The Bible? by charlesm91(m): 10:41am On Feb 21, 2016
i feel purgatory is used to justify the small sins we commit since one can take solace in the fact that he/she will be purged before going to heaven, that itself is a dangerous doctrne. it makes one feel at ease with these so called little sins which to me have higher tendency to cause one to lose salvation than the more hefty sins we commit. Never believed; never have, never will.
Christianity Etc › Re: Is Purgatory In The Bible? by charlesm91(m): 10:40am On Feb 21, 2016
i dont think anyone was in heaven before Jesus' death. i think it was either hades or paradis. Scholars should help out.

asalimpo:
never hand to hand. A single sneeze or yawn from sups will whisk batman away. There's no basis for equality. Superman can lift a boeing 747 in one hand, move the earth out of orbit, contain a nuclear blast. Is this the person a mere mortal can take a lick at? We should know crap when we see one. This is simply overcontrived. What will be next? Robin trashing Hulk?
its all abojt the money. fans eager to see the man in black take on the red caped hero; two biggest names in comic history pitched against themselves will definitely arouse viewers interest. i still think the battle is gonna be 1:1 and the next confrontation, along comes a doomsday, both drops their ego-ic quest for supremacy for the sake of national security. if supes were to do a tyson, the movie will be over before it even started hence the reason they focused more on bats giving supes a piece of his mind with a brutish feel in the trailers just to spark curiosity. The latest and last trailer where bat stopped supes punch was intriguing.
TV/Movies › Re: Batman Vs Superman by charlesm91(m): 2:38pm On Feb 15, 2016
really anticipating the movie. it's understandable they made batman that way esp. when coming up against a godlike hero (supes still wins it for me tho no matter the tech, whats all that power for if u can move planwts and cant defeat a mortal man dressed up in tech). My only gripe with the movie is the man portraying Alfred; the movie talks about an aging batman but the age difference between bat n alfred is barely minimal.

just to satisfy my curiosity and I'm not science oriented by the way; if there's the speed of light and it's measurable, what then is the speed of darkness? Might sound dumb but u know, just a thought.

and i have not even seen any new thing since i got the update
no features are been added at the moment. Sorting out the bugs and implementing the one core strategy- unifying code that binds all the os together is key; so it dont matter what device u run w10 on. Redstone update is supposed to add new features but for now the cummulative updates are it. I'd rather they fix the bugs and make w10 more stable before adding more eye catchy features.

I do switch between gloflat and glosecure sef.
I wonder if there's another hidden APN that's faster.
to me i think glo is a shitty network. inasmuch as it's dependent on location, i still believe their services aren't top notch. Currently in owerri and i get hspa+ constant and i get speed as slow as snails. Cant believe my mtn edge oust it in terms of speed. My 500weekend pla is just useless cos i can't do nothing with it. Tried switching between gloflat n secure but no changes.
