I don't know why them Hollywood folks continue to get married. You Google an actor and theirs an 80% chance DIVORCE.

They don't make them like this anymore. Been rewatching old movies these days

Need y'all to watch this documentary if you haven't. Just 2 episodes.

I think THE BEAR is one of those "just there" series, but the world just decides to collectively overrate it. Or maybe na me no watch am well sha.

FergieRaww:
If na you, you go stop?

lol. Just wondering where the story would be coming from Sha, source material don finish, so they'll be plucking stories out of thin air. Same thing I think they did with Squid game after the creator said it was only going to be one season. Let's just wait and see how it goes sha.

Baddestguyp:
Money talks

I just hope they don't fûck it up like GOT

just came here to post this particular screenshot. They about to ruin it. Why not just stop at 1 like it was originally intended.

Hello hello, went back to watch old comedy movies.

I have a better recommendation to start your anime journey with

Lmaooooo

Illusioneffect:
Starting your anime journey with BES is a massive W. You'ld think all anime is great

one mutual on Twitter was hyping it up and i just decided to see whats it's all about, Every episode is a banger.

abduleez1:
Not really an animé. But almost the same thing.

Animé basically means animation in Japan. So all things animated are basically called animé in Japan. Even American or foreign origin animation content are all called animé in Japan.

Although, in the outside world outside Japan, we like to call and identify animé as "animation content specifically from Japan or culturally linked to Japan and it's animation style".

So with that classification one might say "Blue Eye Samurai" ain't really "anime". Still, doesn't mean much, animation is animation anywhere in the world. And the Japanese have mighty respect for the animation medium.

thanks for the explanation. Now I get it.

Alienist:
The way you guys hyped that SHOGUN series sha. Only for it to have that mid ending. Na wa.

Anyhow sha, any update on SILO Season 2 and FROM Season 3

Define mid

I don't know if this is part of the Anime y'all always talk about, but I guess I have officially started my Anime journey with this. 😃 This is an Anime right? <(Blue eye samurai)

Kaycee7:

drisham:
Please I need someone to recommend series as good as The night agent please

GrimValor:
Yabushige-sama finally realizing that there was nothing special about the so called Great Yoshi Toranaga after all, and that at the end of the day he was just a lying, manipulative, two-faced snivelling old cun* ( in Anjin-sama's voice ) just like the rest of them.

Was happy to die a fulfilled man, with the knowledge that Toranaga was no better than he was and that he had absolutely nothing to feel guilty about or apologize for.

And then proceeds to look him right in the eye, smiling as he is commiting seppuku to which Toranaga smiled back in acknowledgement, as one møther-f*cker to a fellow møther-f*cker.

SHŌGUN ----9.3/10.

like people were actually dying and they didn't even know the actual thing they were dying for, all in the name of a leader pretending not to want the throne or whatever. Yabushige-sama is my real hero abeg.

OhBritannia:
Shogun to me is a solid 7/10

I loved the series, all 9 episodes were at least 8/10 for me but the episode finally disappointed me.
If they knew they didn't have the budget for a series filled with legendary battles, they could have presented the series to HBO or Netflix.

Imagine it was HBO that championed the series, by now we all would be talking about how it's up there with game of thrones, prison break and all that.
The way we waited for 9 episodes, Atleast a legendary fight to the death battle would have been better.

This series was clearly a battle series like the last kingdom or vikings or game of thrones.
Yes!!! we enjoyed the politics, the conversations, the scheming and all that but the fact that we didn't even see a single battle makes me very disappointed.
HBO or Netflix wound have turned this series into gold.
But it is what it is.
Its a nice series but they could have done better, even if they burrowed money to champion the series, they would have made generational profits from it.

And if they spend loads of money on it then it flops nko? Sometimes they just put out these shows without expecting it to blow up like that

blingxx:
Toranaga is just that kind of boss that will sacrifice his workers to get a promotion

pretended throughout the season about how he wasn't interested in becoming shogun while his mind was set on it. Selfish man .

Greatdesi:
Is it that interesting?

very interesting. Depends on the type of series you like Sha, and you have to be a bit patient. Don't just watch episode 1 and dump

Percival9:
Shogun finale flopped hard for me



Rubbish
All the build up and anticipation only leads to boring ending


Atleast show us
Lets see ishido face when he realizes he is fighting alone

This was too predictable after mariko death last episode

Cause she already said her death will shake Osaka and dismantle the regents in episode 9


Shogun is too short the skipping too much im disappointed

7/10

no matter how a show ends, some of you must complain there was nothing wrong with the finale of Shogun, all in all A MASTERCLASS

Achilles100:
Season 1 was very very good. Season 2 went from okay to Westworld kind of crazy to what I cant even explain.

I don't know why most shows are like this, season would be fire, but the follow up season they run out of ideas.

Erenjp:
Didn't like season 2 tho

still on season 1

F*cking hell. I have had this since forever on my phone and just decided to give it a trial, I am genuinely blown away. I remember downloading it just for downloading sake, didn't even check the ratings or nothing. Amazing.

Hallelujah!!

Shôgun (2024)

Why tell a dead man, the future?


I don't think i have come across an "FX" series that i didn't like and with Shôgun, they have raised their standard even higher!.
Stunning cinematography, Amazing set and costume design, rich story telling and compelling characters, all rolled into one, makes for a very good show imo, and this totally excelled in all that. I think, there is a total shift of sheer number of people genuinely interested on feudal Japan and the intricacies of Samurai politics, based off, on seeing this masterpiece alone.

It was like a poetry, everything meticulous and intentionally done , no words, no action was taken just for the sake of it. I can see why people where mislead to think, this was gonna end on a "bang", after all, all the build-up will suggest so, but alas, with was just a play on the juxtaposing culture clash of East and West, honour and ambition played out with wit rather than brute.

If one is paying attention, the show effectively ended at Episode 9, aptly named "Crimson Sky", that's when the true battle took place!, and so keeping with theme of a true poetry which I think the show is, Episode 10 is like a bonus, an envoi, the last stanza of a poetry, that ties everything together and gives a deeper and fulfilling meaning to the entire thing, let me cite some examples

Yabushige writes his will continuously through out the show, but at the last episode hands Omi a note and says "This is my final Will".

There is was an episode where, Mariko, Blackthorne and Fuji seats, the first time a connection is made between all 3, this scene is repeated in Episode 10, but this time, is just Blackthorne and Fuji-sama and the semblance of heartbreak 💔.

And my personal favorite, in the very first episode, after learning about Blackthorne's ship, Omi asks Yabushige if he was gonna tell Lord Toranaga about it, to which he replies, "Why tell a dead man about the future"? , and on episode ten dying embers, Yabushige asks Lord Toranaga, what was the point of the entire ruse, and what actually, is his plans before he commits seppuku, at least he believes Lord Toranaga owes him that much, to which Lord Toranaga bluntly tells him..Why tell a dead man the future? before he chopped off his head.

That's why I feel the show runners stick a perfect landing with episode 10, and it's probably the best finale I have seen, since "Succession".

Mann, This show will pick Emmys for fun during the award season, and rightly so, FX has this, Fargo, and "The Bear", in their coffers, makes me wonder if these guys ever miss?.

A true masterpiece and might be a stretch, but it's probably gonna be my show of the year pending when HOD [/i]and "[i]The Bear S3" both debut that is.

9/10.

from what I read on Twitter, I think a spy was with Yabushige all along that was the reason Tonaraga repeated the same words Yabushige said in the beginning. Don't know if that's the case sha.

I just can't bring myself to hate Yabushige. The ultimate GOAT 😂

I laugh at people like this, Because how'd you miss a great show/movie because all you want to see is people fighting

Shogun episode 10 ✅ spoilers can come in

oyaskii:
Exactly! Sitcoms are more milder to see, hence a much higher replay value than any other genre. Serialised TV these days have become lazy somewhat all together, with thier 10 episodes gimmick, so Sitcoms have become a "dying breed" due to this, cuz i don't really see how a proper sitcom would work inside of 10 measley episodes.

Back then, a proper sitcom season would have like a 26 episode season, where you are guaranteed a Christmas episode, a valentine episode, an Halloween episode and sometimes a "big reveal or ceremony" two episodes special!. Mann those where the days.

lol yeah, the spoilers for sitcoms hit quite hard, currently seeing "The Office" now, i was randomly going through YouTube one night, and bam!, YouTube algorithm suggested vid of the faith of 2 particular characters in the final season, whilst i was still in S6, never looked at them the same way again 😩

Reason why i can never understand when some people say spoilers don't affect the movie they watch, like what's the point when you already know

GloriousGbola:
Who has watched orphan black?

I have, won't lie it was a bit confusing back then, due to 1 person playing different characters. But you might like it

GloriousGbola:
I have downloaded the entire series but don't know when I will find time to binge it

I really enjoyed watching it
