Which was a very smart business decision. They predicted greedy studio execs will try to copy their streaming model and rip their series/movies from them or make it too expensive to acquire.
abduleez1:
True, my bad. I meant the years when they didn't have much before they started spending BIG on Originals.
TV/MoviesRe: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by doitforyou(f): 9:46pm On Nov 10, 2019
SMH DC keeps getting screwed over by WB. Isn’t it time they own their studios?

Do you think Titans will have a season 3? The quality is inconsistent, sometimes it feels like a CW production, still love it though.
abduleez1:
DC Universe will still remain for now. I here Doom Patrol will move on to HBO Max. But seems Warner Media plans I to converge them all at later date. But I see a problem specifically for DC Universe cos it has DC comic books library in it.

That reason makes me think it might stay, but annoyingly it's gonna get cannibalized for HBO Max. Starting with Doom Patrol, I also hear Star Girl originally meant for DC Universe app might move to HBO Max. AT&T just wanna make everyone work for HBO Max's success at the expense of others.
TV/MoviesRe: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by doitforyou(f): 9:38pm On Nov 10, 2019
I did too! But I lost interest when it took forever to release season 3. Since you say it’s still good, will watch season 3 & 4.
KoiceReloaded:
I really love this show. It's alternate history mixed with sci-fi. So unique and thought provoking, really compelling storylines. I have followed it religiously... I'm stoked for season 4.
TV/MoviesRe: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by doitforyou(f): 8:14pm On Nov 10, 2019
I stopped watching after season 2. Amazon messed up this series. Two years between seasons?!
KoiceReloaded:
Season 4 (also the last season) will debut on Friday.

So what will happen to DC’s streaming app? I watch Titans & Doom Patrol on the DC app. This US capitalists are something else, since the success of Netflix, every studio wants their own app. Daredevil was cancelled and all of Marvel’s series/movies will be taken off Netflix because of Disney’s greed.

All my faves are spread over 4-5 paid apps, ridiculous!

KoiceReloaded:
You're kinda mixing up the two HBOs. Green Lantern is being developed for WarnerMedia's new streaming platform, HBO Max. The well known premium cable HBO, won't be involved. HBO Max will be separate from HBO, and both will have their own separate originals;

HBO Max list of originals
- Search Party (dark comedy)
- The Boondocks (Adult Animation comedy)
- Doom Patrol (Superhero Comedy)
- Green Lantern (Superhero science fiction)
- The Flight Attendant (Dark Comedy)
- Etc

HBO list of Originals for 2020
- Westworld
- The Outsider
- Lovecraft Country
- The Undoing (miniseries)
- Perry Mason (miniseries)
- The Third Day (miniseries)
- The Plot Against America (miniseries)
- I Know This Much is True (Miniseries)
- Curb Your Enthusiasm
- Barry
- Righteous Gemstones
- The New Pope
- Run
- Industry
- Betty
- January 22nd (miniseries)
- My Brilliant Friend: The Story of a New name
- High Maintenance
- Room 104
- Insecure
- Los Espookys

HBO max will mainly focus on adult-oriented dark comedies, while HBO will cover every genre, as per usual.

Watchmen was originally intended to be a one-off (miniseries) for HBO, but things could change, depending on reception. And in the slight possibility that a season 2 gets okayed, it will definitely migrate to HBO Max.

Concurred. Historically, less episode count makes for a tighter and more rounded script. I've high hopes that Amazon is going to make this show so much better. For instance, I expect the story to get darker, grittier, and perhaps, raunchier? Chrisjen Avasarala is gonna cuss more, as expletives will no longer be censored. The CGI, which has always been stellar, will improve exponentially. Dialogue will also improve. Action scenes will be better choreographed, and will feel more real...

Mehn... I can't wait. Season 4 is gonna rock.
True. Also since it’s Amazon we might get more nude scenes wink

Amazon has taken over and they would reduce the episode count to 10. So bigger budget, I guess we are in for a graphics treat.

bukatyne:
First, stop editting my posts: There is nothing like rape in marriage. This is my original post:

@Bold, I am not surprised you have comprehension issues neither am I the cause of your bitterness towards men.

This consent is two way; a man and woman give consent to their wife and husband on the wedding day.

At last paragraph, still reeks of no comprehension. What is a strong independent married woman? Have you ever seen someone who is independent? How does it even tie into Glory Osei's case who pretended to be a 'single independent woman' with no use for men while she was very married.

Pardon me, I am losing patience for unintelligent discussions.

If you want to engage me, please bring your brains along.
Yawn.

No one on this thread comprehends you, because you make no damn sense. You’re talking from all the orifices on your body. You’re backpedaling so fast that you don’t even make sense to yourself.

Lol @ bolded, see you bobbing and weaving with NL’s favorite buzz words so you can dodge defending your twisted logic, lol I don’t blame you if I had to defend a dangerous and incoherent ideology, I’ll probably also take the desperate option to save face.

“There is no rape in marriage” is a very sick, twisted and dangerous thing to say, so sick that even married men on NL shut you down very quickly. What does that say about you and your message?

I actually feel sorry for you, if you had strong independent married women as role models growing up you wouldn’t have turned out to be this weak, low self esteemed, brainwashed woman.
FamilyRe: Then It Dawned On Me, I Died In An Abusive Marriage by doitforyou(f): 1:21pm On Nov 01, 2019
bukatyne:
So a husband has the right to manage your body mean he cannot abuse it?

Do you know the meaning of abuse?

And yes, there is rape in marriage.
bukatyne:
You would not know a twisted household if it hits you in the face.

It is the Glory Osei's of this world that fits you lots ranting how she is a strong independent woman while she is married to her co-founder.

Perhaps after you get married, we can discuss again. undecided
Go sit your ass down in your twisted household. Thank God your sick message was overwhelmingly rejected on NL by married men and women.

I see you’re now backpedaling. You give a man blanket consent to do as he wishes with your body, when he takes you up on your offer, you tell the woman she can seek redress in a phantom marriage court..lol that can only make sense to a brainwashed woman.

FYI, there is nothing wrong in being a strong independent married woman. Perhaps you needed those in your life growing up.

I did it for the benefit of young impressionable minds that might stumble on this thread. Please post here the sick and warped vows you took that states rape (as long as there’s no physical injury) is allowed in holy matrimony. Your twisted message for your twisted household, should remain in your house not on the internet.

No amount of striking would distort my message dear kiss kiss kiss
FamilyRe: Then It Dawned On Me, I Died In An Abusive Marriage by doitforyou(f): 8:27pm On Oct 31, 2019
bukatyne:
I have explained over and over.

Rape is sex without consent.

[s]In the wedding vows, you automatically give consent to your spouse as a man and woman. Infact if the marriage is not consummated (no sex happens), it can be annulled. [/s]

There is sexual abuse like all other types of abuse in marriage. Examples of sexual abuse would include performing sexual acts the other partner finds humiliating, denying your partner sex, withholding sex for favors i.e. Using it as a bargaining chip, deliberately refusing to satisfy your partner etc.

There can also be physical assault where the husband or wife deliberately injures the other party in the course of sex.

Maybe, maybe not. I remember when Big Bang first aired, it was poorly received and it almost got cancelled in season 2. It didn’t become popular until like season 3.
DandeNumeruno:
when i said users i meant the general audience. imdb rating system is propelled by users vote. if you want critics opinions, check rotten tomatoes. it's 58% there,which is also low in my opinion. there's no way in hell this show will see a season 2. ratings are low and shows like this need high ratings to continue for syndication reasons.

lalopeto:
Even with the excuse Eve gave that it was the devil (family chores, the children, her being an emotional being and stuff), she still met herself outside God's paradise. So if they like let them continue to make their excuses.
So you agree then, that men making up excuses for cheating is crap. People cheat because they want to not because someone made them to.

lalopeto:
Yes, it is a personal decision. Adam took a similar decision and he found himself outside the garden of Eden together with his wife. It was Adam that took the decision but God punished both Adam and Eve. Even with the excuse Eve gave that it was the devil (family chores, the children, her being an emotional being and stuff), she still met herself outside God's paradise. So if they like let them continue to make their excuses.
God punished Eve, rightfully so, because she ate the apple too. They both paid the price for disobedience, they were both held responsible for their choices. So someone corrected you up thread and you still insist on being misleading. It seems your post was a rant so all your dude bros will come here and bash women as usual. You were never interested in an objective dialogue.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by doitforyou(f):
No matter how damaged Trump is, it will be political suicide for the GOP to have a challenger for Trump. Trump has a yuuge approval ratings with the base and a primary before the general elections will damage Trump further. So far the GOP is doing well in securing a second term victory. All the GOP needs to do is 1. Trump needs to keep doing Trump, his base loves it. 2. Depress the turn out of the Democratic Party.
budaatum:
Warren soundbites seem lame, for America at least. And tactical Trump has started rather early on Biden, who in my opinion, is rather heavily tainted dead.

How about a GOP challenger? If The Dems weaken Trump enough the Republicans just might ramp up an inside challenger against him instead of holding their nose as many do now.
FamilyRe: Most Wives Will Send Their Husbands To Hell by doitforyou(f): 2:56pm On Oct 17, 2019
You just made my point. Why would you care about the emotions of a side chick? The only emotions you should care about is your wife’s and kids’.

lalopeto:
Side chicks don't have emotions abi? Na only married women have emotions. In as much as I agree that raising up kids is an herculean task for both the husband and wife and that i respect your mild opinion but, this does not still erase the fact that the woman should forget her husband outrightly . See I am not supporting men looking outside for sexual gratification or what have you, of course, it's not even the solution because those outside chicks are emotional and crazier. Women conscious consideration of their man's need will go a long way too.
FamilyRe: Most Wives Will Send Their Husbands To Hell by doitforyou(f):
Lalopeto, the bolded is the answer. Most Nigerian marriages are dysfunctional. Husbands love and trust their mothers/family/friends/side chicks over their wives, wives pour all their love unto their children. Nigerian men are okay with the physical submission of their wives and could care less about her emotions. It’s easy to get physical submission from a Nigerian woman but it’s near impossible to command her to submit emotionally, Nigerian men have to put in the work to get emotional submission. The “work” is what Nigerian men refuse to do.

yeyeosoronga:
You need to take responsibility for your actions. Nobody can push you to hell, unless of course you want to do so yourself due to your selfish desires.
Will you also justify those who go into crime like armed robbery because things are hard, and friends and family don't respect them. So is it their friends and family who don't respect them that encouraged them to go to the path of perdition?
They already had wickedness in their heart, and no friend has a hand in their decisions.
When a man loses an emotional connection with his wife, dont blame the children for it. He needs to go back to the drawing board and find out why his wife is no longer interested in meeting his emotional needs. What went wrong? Has he also being neglecring the needs of his wife? Does he berate her and shut her down most of the time? Has he been trustworthy towards her? Has he been performing his husbandly roles in the home? If he has not being good to his wife, she will naturally pull away from him.
This has nothing to do with the children, but a coping mechanism
I cannot excuse cheating men , as I wouldn't excuse cheating women by blaming their spouses. They wanted to cheat, and did so. No need to push the blame of your bad behaviour on someone else. Own it.
Even Adam, the first man tried that nonsense with God, and blamed the woman Eve and even blamed God for creating the woman who he claimed pushed the apple down his throat. He didnt tell us it was the greed and covetousness in his own heart that made him gladly accept the apple to eat.
It's always everybody else's fault but your own- either your wife or even the children of your loins.
You need to be ready to be accountable for your actions and even inactions o, broda
FamilyRe: Most Wives Will Send Their Husbands To Hell by doitforyou(f): 4:16pm On Oct 16, 2019
lalopeto:
Madam, go over and read again, it is not about the wife showering affection on the children, the issue it's about failing to accept the fact that it is the man before the children and it will also be the man after the children are grown to be independent. there is a need to balance up here. Women should learn not to encourage their hubbies to make choices that will lead them to eternal damnation.

RomanceRe: 'Women Must Not Suffer To Find Love'- Toke Makinwa by doitforyou(f): 11:29pm On Oct 15, 2019
That’s not what this is about though, this is about double standards. The woman is been praised and celebrated but a man would have been mocked.

Ginaz:
I think the mistake women always make is they try to compare themselves in all aspects when it comes to men.

The Bible said women are helpers . We are not equal and can never be equal to men. Until women learn this hard and naked truth they will always be at the receiving end of pain!

Nobody will force you to do what you don’t want to do. If you love a guy but wanna leave cos he hurts you then fine. Don’t leave on the message that men doesn’t take bullshit so you won’t take bullshit

Women have a lot of influences over men, if they could focus their energy in trying to better their lives and instill a good influence over their men, they will be better off than becoming a bitter , over sabi, I know my right deranged psycho.

Be careful of the type of advise you take as a woman. Physical violence of any kind should not be taken though. In that area I suggest you walk away.
FamilyRe: An Unhappy Nigerian Married Woman by doitforyou(f):
First, change your friends.

It’s difficult to get an accounting/audit jobs if you haven’t done and passed professional exams. Why don’t you use your salary to pay for these exams? You will get a job when you have passed them.

Single women that also want to have a career when they get married, should make sure they have all their ducks lined up in a row before they say I do. Some husbands don’t want or aren’t interested in their wives also having a career.

Some men only get married for procreation and aren’t interested in the dreams and the goals of their wives. However, it’s not too late to achieve whatever will make you happy and whole. You just have one child now and your husband is rarely at home so you have a bit of time to study for those exams.

It’s a very safe and beautiful country not just the tourist sites, the people are very friendly and very laid back. Yes they have their own creole but it is rarely spoken, they speak English, I never heard anyone speak Patois while I was there.

Tourism and offshore banking is what drives their economy, they have a very good economy. Bahamians don’t have a ‘hustling’ behavior, they are a very content and happy people. It is very hard to immigrate to Bahamas and get a job, their immigration policy is very very strict.
FamilyRe: My Wife To Be Is Too Reserved by doitforyou(f): 4:14pm On Oct 13, 2019
lol who’s using whose brain?!!

It’s obvious you don’t know what social anxiety disorder is, if you still think she is doing it on purpose.

I don’t know why you keep repeating the bolded, she has met his family, she just has anxiety socializing with them every time.

I already said it like a millionth time, if the OP is not up to task then he should leave her alone. No one has said the man should marry her by force and endure her anxiety.

Social anxiety is real.

baby124:
You are in for a rude shock in marriage if you will rely on someone to help you use your brain. If you really want to be with someone, you will make an effort.

Seriously, you will marry a man that absolutely does not want to meet your family or friends? That person is not even interested in knowing who you are and you say it’s anxietyhuh Maybe your family and friends mean nothing to you. To some of us, they mean a lot. To OP, his family means a lot.
FamilyRe: My Wife To Be Is Too Reserved by doitforyou(f): 3:53pm On Oct 13, 2019
No you don’t have to complete yourself before entering a relationship, some relationships/partners help you become your best self.

Yes, it isn’t compulsory for OP to be that person to help her, my grouse is people acting like she is doing it on purpose, social anxiety disorder is real. That’s why I said in my first comment if the OP is not up to the task, then he should break up with her, the man should look for someone else that will fit into the idea/role he has for a wife.

baby124:
Complete yourself before entering a relationship for marriage. Work on yourself. Don’t count on anyone helping you heal. That should be you and your parents problem before marriage. He obviously did not sign up for her disorders. A relationship is when you try to realize what you can deal with. He obviously cannot deal with someone with her issues. That is why he is here. She is better off finding someone that has anxiety like her.
FamilyRe: My Wife To Be Is Too Reserved by doitforyou(f): 3:43pm On Oct 13, 2019
Because you can doesn’t mean anything. Social anxiety disorder occurs on a spectrum, you’re lucky you can handle some social activities. She didn’t refuse to meet his family, she has met them. She isn’t comfortable socializing with them every time. It is not an ideal situation and she’s not doing it on purpose. She needs help and patience managing it.

baby124:
By the way, I am not someone that goes to party everyday. In fact hubby is more social. But I don’t joke when it comes to family and mutual friends function. I show up, decked up and come out of my shell.

She can make the effort if she wants to, there are no extremes in life. If something is important to who you love as long as it does not compromise your health and safety, you will try to make them happy. Any extremist is a no-no in any situation. Run from extremists, they will destroy you.

How can someone be reluctant to meet your family and friends before marriage, is she mad? It’s even for her own good to see if she can belong to such a family or even marry you.

How will she feel if you refuse to meet her family members at all? If you act like her you won’t even meet them for introduction and you will never attend her family functions. Women can’t take that you know? Please and please flee from this woman. This one will not want to see anybody in your house. Trust me.

ginaolo:
I met her randomly on the road it wasn’t in a social setting. But how do I deal with her not wanting to meet family and friends It’s disrespectful to me. As a wife you have to be open to meet my family atleast, when they are always asking about her, I can’t keep on making excuses for her na. People think there’s something wrong with my gf even though I’ve told them she is the shy type.
This isn’t about you, social anxiety is real and if you can’t understand that and support her then you need to leave her alone so she can meet someone that loves her, not selfish and patient enough to help her overcome/manage her anxiety. Since she doesn’t fit the idea of a trophy wife you want, you need to break up with her and do it quickly.
FamilyRe: Help With House Guest by doitforyou(f):
It’s sad really that in our culture a man is tagged “weak” if he treats his partner like a human being.

I don’t understand how a man that claims to love you will intentionally hurt you just to prove he is an alpha male.

Op, have a different talk this time, tell him the need he has to feel like an alpha male is also the need you have not to be perceived as a door mat or be disrespected. Tell him the next time it happens it will be mutually assured destruction, you will stand up for yourself and you’ll both disgrace each other.

Is he violent? Are you scared he might be physical if you react? You shouldn’t be scared to stand up for yourself, no reasonable man will kick you out of the marriage if you defend yourself from an unprovoked insult.

sassysure:
She thought her marriage will scatter if she do something.u know how we love the Mrs title grin

Surprise that man and his brain will reset immediately.
Let me tell you, most men hate women who don't like fighting for their rights. This man will respect her more.

Anytime u challenge your oppressor, he or she will start respecting you even if they decide not to speak to u again but sure u have earned their respect.
He has eroded her individuality and if he can gossip about her with his friend, he can as well go out with the so called friend to groove( good old days).

I experienced this turning to another person and shouting to me in front of visitors from my hussy and when I told him, he said that it's how his voice is and I said no problem.
Then one day my friend visited me and he started again, that day I was so angry that I gave it back to him hot hot, I even told him since you like disgracing me, let's disgrace ourselves together and my man doesn't like taking what he dishes out. He carried face for two days, but even though I later apologized but it brought an end to the disgrace. Now when I do something wrong, he will just tell me Babym please come to the room and he will talk to me with respect or he waits till the person goes home before reacting.
Coming to you asking his friend to go and dish food by himself, that one is not advisable.
Op, the bolded is the key. Since he’s not as reasonable as Femsyn, all talks have failed. Then, you need to remove that guarantee that he will not be disgraced. Once he knows disrespecting you in front of people will bring a bigger disgrace to him, he will stop. We’ve all been there. All you need is just to put your foot down once or twice.
