TV/MoviesRe: Which Is Your Favourite Walt Disney Cartoon? by Emmz(f): 7:53pm On Nov 03, 2011
vescucci:
Hey, Emmz.

My favourite animation is probably Surf's Up or Wall-E. Sometimes I like things that is not everyone's cup of tea. That way I feel like I own it. You're right The Incredibles is underrated. Plus Brad Bird. Though I fear he may be breaking into 'proper' movies. I don't have faith in him sadly.

Up just didn't connect with me. I found that lil boy annoying.
hahaha @ dat. Truly he was annoying but i loved the relationship between the old man and his wife till she passed and its very rare to find such sadness in animated movies. I mean death (with love involved) to a good person. UP is not my fav but its cool couldnt think of a lot at the time i typed em down. I dont think i ever saw surfs up. Never seen wall-e.

How could i have forgotten Ratatouille (one of my very favs) Madagascar and Ice Age are not bad too. Il pick them over UP.

Nah Obinna and Vieira my Ryan Reynolds will not let me down. Seeing is believing. I have been waiting since 2010. Sometimes listening to critics aint so good. I remember hangover 2 being said to produce forced laughters. I havent seen it yet but people that have seen it seem to say its as hilarious as part1.
TV/MoviesRe: What Was The Last Movie You Watched - Part 2 by Emmz(f): 9:24pm On Jun 16, 2011
@ iice wait a minute now which Green Lantern is this ure talkin about? It surely is not the one starring Ryan Reynolds or is it? been waiting since last year to see this.

@earthrealm on 3 days later or after cat remember. No she is not the chick from lost. By the chick from lost im guessing ure talking about Evangeline Lily. Its not her in the movie its Elisabeth Banks from Seabiscuit from Zack and Miri make a movie etc.

By the way where is Vescucci? smiley
TV/MoviesRe: What Was The Last Movie You Watched - Part 2 by Emmz(f): 1:15pm On Jun 05, 2011
Firstly from 3 weeks ago. 3 weekends ago i saw Thor- Really nice. liked it liked it liked it.

2 weekends ago i saw i saw Fast Five. I am giving this movie 8.5/10. The missing 1.5 is just based on the unbeliveable film tricks but i loved this movie. I'm defo seeing it again soon.

Now to what i sw yesday. The Priest Argggggggh! Yuck! Ewwwww! Ekk! A total waste of time. The whole time i was thinking i should be watching Hangover 2 not this. I was bored to DEath. It was boring, a drag, fake stunts everything was wrong. How does a normal human being fly from a hole in the ground. literally fly ok maybe jump but jump from a hole in the ground thats like 15 feet deep. Nah. I cant even go into everything. It was just awful.

Dont even try seeing this. Whats with all this wack movies coming out. The worst thing is that you can actually see the cross fade off their foreheads and then later see it brighten. hmmmmm! Laughable.
Music/RadioRe: Taio Cruz Flies Flag For Nigeria. Wins Billboard Hot 100 Song Of The Year by Emmz(f): 12:44pm On Jun 05, 2011
All i have to say is that its obvious the guy dosent want to be associated with Nigeria. If he wanted to, we would have known what country he originally hails from.

I found out last year that taio cruz is Nigerian thru a friend who went to school with him. Apparently Adrao. Taio cruz went to Adrao so where his british lineage came from i really do not know. Maybe he was born there but he is of Nigerian decent and i do not know pple who are not Nigerians that send their kids to Nigeria to school when pple who are actually Nigerians are trying every means possible to send their kids abroad.

It is not by force to associate oneself with someone who dosent want to be so associated. The first time i checked to verify what my friend said, he was down there as born Adetayo Adewale Onile-ere but now it says Jacob tayo cruz obviously sum1 edited it but if you look down to his early life, It says he was born to a Nigerian father. So ure all right. He is a Nigerian that dosent want to be Nigerian.


Check this out for starters. Oct 18, 2010

Adetayo Adewale onile-ere aka taio cruz aka taio jacob cruz is an idiot!
I just read somewhere that he was born and raised in england
What a load of crock.
I'm a 26 year old nigerian female and tayo was a dark glasses wearing boy a couple of classes ahead of me in secondary school(high school)
I don't get the point of the name change, the age change(he's at least 28!) Or the lies about where he grew up!
Tayo we were in adrao tgether oh!
Stop pretending

TV/MoviesRe: Is There A Movie That You Can Watch Over And Over Again? by Emmz(f): 8:52am On May 15, 2011
Sorry i had to modify this. It has to be Kung fu hustle and City of God. I noticed that everytime i have pple over or in a movie discussion these r movies i always ask people to see.

The first time i watched Kung fu hustle, i watched it 2 more times before returning the Dvd to the person that lent it to me. I then went on to buy one of those clear copies from the chinese guys and sum1 nicked it and then i bought the original dvd and yes sum1 nicked it again and i am going to buy another one. I also watched City of God for the first time at my friend's and i went on to buy the original dvd. It is lost as well. Im thinkin dat in my advocating for people to watch em, i musta lent them out and they were never returned. Too bad.

Il however be buying my Kung fu hustle, City of God, Curse of the Golden flower and Apocalypto original dvds once again.

About drive angry, i cudnt watch it really. D beginning was just blah! so dont know. But for me if a movie cant catch my full attention within the first 10 mins,. aint no point watchin it unless im deceiving myself by telling myself dat sumtin is about to happen like i did with "The American"

TV/MoviesRe: Movies That Should Not Have Been Released: by Emmz(f): 11:53am On May 11, 2011
Firstly i think some pple r on some kinda next tin. As in Why on earth should The last king of scotland, Avatar, Blue valentine, Hangover, Prince of persia, Kung fu panda, even hancock be on the list of movies that shdnt have been released? This is not movies you hate. If it was, then its defo up to u to unleash your true feelins but to say this movies shd not have been released means ure rating them 1 over 10 and truly thats not the case.

Then Company Men was not that bad. Its a drama thats why its subtle. It just shows life's experience. Pineapple express! I beg to differ. Il take Pineapple express anyday over Green Hornet.

Now to my choice of movies that should not have been released. In no particular order-:

1) Almost all Owen Wilson movies. I think his movies are mostly lame and cheesy.
2) Wanted was so unrealistic. With the curving of one bullet that killed about 10 pple.
3) The American- No sense at all
4) Machete- No sense at all
5) Superstar
6)Piranha - Its not the 3D one i believe its the 2011 one. Its so fake
7) Expendables- tried watchin this 3 times but cudnt watch it past the 1st 15mins
cool Nutty professor 2 and beyond
9) I dont know what to make of drive angry. I dnt knw if it shd be here cos i cudnt go past 10 mins
10) Slither- I swear this movie ehn. The moral was that if a husband wants to do his wife and the wife does not allow him do, he will go out late at night and come back as monster.
The worst part is that i watched it at the cinema. I had paid to go watch 16 blocks gettin there, the cinema room next to d 16 blocks room had slither and my frnds just went this sounds interestin lets see it instead i was like lets just see wat we paid for but it was 2 against 1 and boy was i rite.
11) The life Aquatic- I believe that this is the most boring movie i have ever seen in my entire life and its not shockin. Its got Owen wilson in it. Sheesh!
HealthRe: Hiv Positive Guy In Dilenma And Needs your Help. by Emmz(f): 9:25am On May 11, 2011
This is my advise to you. Sometimes these test guys dont get it right either deliberatey or accidentally. I will give you a senario. My friend did all the test to do with sexually transmitted diseases some time ago. Because i had told her i do regular check up every one to two years. I was shocked when she told me she had never had any test done and she was in her early 20s at the time. She had been sexually active for a few years and had had 3 partners so i advised her to do an all round check up which she was willing to do cos she herself just wanted to let sleepin dogs lie.

Anyway she took a test in Nigeria and she was told she didnt have HIV and what not but that she had syphyllis. She was told to come for a series of injections. I cant remember how many she said she was supposed to have. I think sometin like 5 or 6 injections. She took just 2 cos she said she had to go to the village and she never took the remainin cos you had to take them consecutively.

Now that same year (just about 3 months apart my friend travels to europe and pays a private hospital to run all the test on her again. And guess what? She didnt have anytin. She was as clean as a plain white garment. At the back of her mind, she always tot that maybe the two injections helped but it would later come as a shocker jst 2 years ago wen a condom burst while she was havin sexual intercourse wit her new boyfriend that she went to do all the test and found out that she never had syphillis. I dont know how they detect that but i know that when you have those kind of tests in the UK, they ask you for your past records and in order to help yourself you have to be truthful. so she said she told them she was once told she had syphillis but she never completed treatment. When the results came out she was told exactly the same thing she was told in Europe. You dont have any STD and you never have.

So just imagine, this Nigeria, they can do anything for money when it is done intentionally so OP i suggest you take that test again. Twice more. And if all you narrated to us is true then i dont see how you can have AIDS unless you got in contact with a hiv carrier's fluid some other way. Think maybe u swaped saliva when you had a cut in you mouth or you cut urself etc

Whatever it is just do the test again and goodluck.

Oh my Hand my Hand oh!! Vampire diaries has twisted my hand off, smiley. I love the twists. My Man Elijah is back( and he better watch his back cos i'm eyeing his suit). Well i'm on the verge of concluding that No Vampire is really evil, even Katherina except of course Klaus.
I am telling you it has twisted my legs. I now have K- BOW. Mehn! my damon has a werewolf bite. I cant wait for thursday. I know he is not going to die but i just wonder how they gon pull it off. plus wat the freaking heck. Elena's aunt is now a vamp. hmmmmm!
TV/MoviesRe: What Series Are You Watching Now? by Emmz(f): 5:45pm On Apr 11, 2011
My Vampire keeping diary guys are back and so am I. hehehehe

Wow! What a way for them to come back. I kinda tink its too early for Klaus to have gotten Katherine so im wondering what's gon happen.

Alaric was getting really boring so im glad he is Klaus now and wow d Savaltore brothers wouldnt know that for a while so i want to see how dis pans out.

Mehn! Matt is such a sell out. How could he have told (Wat's her name again's mum wat she really is) after they had gone tru all d trouble of makin her forget. So once again she now knows what the salvatore brothers are.

I need new faces too to spice up the whole mix. That will be nice.


I am seeing Mad men. Its kinda boring but then again i am kinda intrigued to find out whats gon happen next. So i have been killing myself watching it.

I am seeing the Event, Season 7 Desperate housewives and  7 Grey's Anatomy as well. Its like they went cuokoo last week with all the singing. I started tinkin maybe i was truly watching srcubs or glee.  huh But Carly sure can sing.
LiteratureRe: What Kind Of Books Do Nigerian's Buy ? by Emmz(f): 9:39pm On Apr 06, 2011

@ emmz

Yes, 'tab' is short for tablet PC as in iPad and its competitors like Samsung Galaxy, Motorola Xoom, Blackberry Playbook etc.

If you're just reading e-books, then a Kindle is probably a more cost-efficient option. But if/when you decide to replace your laptop, you might as well get a tab then for e-books, chat and email and light browsing. Prices should be lower by then too.
Hmmmmm ok. I do want to change my laptop. like right now. but nah! touch screen (ipad) plus it dosent even have a dvd player or does it? Its too small to have one.
Thanks anyway il just stick to Kindle for now. I get bored of electronics anyway especially laptops and phones so maybe il get an ipad in the future but for now il just do Kindle. Thanks.
LiteratureRe: What Kind Of Books Do Nigerian's Buy ? by Emmz(f): 8:28pm On Apr 06, 2011

@ emmz,

Is it really cost-effective to get a Kindle or other dedicated e-reader when you can get a tab that does what the Kindle does plus many other things? Its your money anyway but I would suggest you slow down on buying a Kindle and watch the evolution of the iPad and Android tabs for a little while. Many or even most tabs have Kindle or other e-reader apps.
What do you mean by Tab? Do you mean Ipads, Netbooks, Tablets?  I dont know what a tab is. I dont really like complicated things hence im not sure i want an ipad. I really dont like touch screen but i can do kindle cos it BOOKS!! By the way kindle is way cheaper than an ipad. Kindle is about 125 pounds ipads are over 400 pounds and i really dont care about 95 percent of its feature. Just like my bb. I dont use most of its components except chatting. I check my emails on my laptop. As for my laptop hmmmm. The first time i got one, it was purely for spider solitaire. lol. back then internet system was too slow so coudnt be bothered. so you see my friend  i get things purely for one reason or maybe two so this tab although i dont know what it is, im betting that if i do get it, il use it just for one thing. I wouldnt care about its features so why dont i just get me a kindle that is purely for books (one thing) that i can carry every where with me and is super light in my bag.

So educate me. What is Tab? You could help me decide. grin
LiteratureRe: What Kind Of Books Do Nigerian's Buy ? by Emmz(f): 1:20pm On Apr 05, 2011
It is not true that people don't buy books. people do. I for one am a book lover and i have friends like that. I have shelves of books. I read mostly fictional books, e.g thrillers, suspense and sometimes comedies.

A lot of girls like romance books. I'm not one of them though.

I wanted to start selling books last year i asked around but it didn't seem feasible cos we had numetro both at silverbird and shoprite and their books weren't all that expensive ( N1000) per book.

All i can advise you to do is take the advice of Orikinla. You need to go about hawking your books and if you cant do that then at least employ someone to do that. But you wud av to put into consideration the amount you bought the books, the profit margin and the salary of your employee in order for you to make out if its even worth it.

One last thing is KINDLE. I dont know if you have heard of this but i believe all book lovers know this or at least shd know that kindle is an e-book. A lot of book lovers already have this device where you can store about 300 books.

I would be getting one soon so,  its really going to be hard selling paper books when people can get on e-device and store as many books as they like. (Nigerians love electronics)

Please do your research very well b4 embarking on this journey.

Nairaland GeneralWhat Is Your Phobia by Emmz(op): 2:41pm On Mar 15, 2011
Everyone is afraid of something in life. A lot of people laugh at me when they hear what it is im really scared of or when they see me exhibiting my fear for this thing.

I would like to hear your views on what exactly it is that scares you the most and how you feel about and deal with your fear.

For me it has to be Lizards. Any type of lizard. be it geckos, Nig lizards, salamanders, chameleons, komodos, iguanas etc.

They give me the chills and i have goose pimples all over. I dont know what it is. Its not like im scared that they will bite me. Its the way they look. (disgusting). Especially Nig lizards. Argggh.

Believe it or not when i was little a lizard chased me and after that i just could not stand them especially the red headed ones. see the way they fight with their tails. Yuck. and they are always watching you. Their eyes can watch you right from the top of their head. Im serious though.

I deal with them by avoiding them like a plague.

I usually go with Iice and Spikey's suggestions . . .but I'll start following Emmz and Semid, we share similar tastes.
Sometimes i get the feeling that Ogaga is an Older guy say about late 40s cos of his love for old movies/classics lol but somepple r dat way even though young in age.

I feel honoured that you have chosen to go with my suggestions. Tanks maite. I promise not to let you down.  smiley


I finished Green Hornet and frankly i dont know what to make of this movie. Im slightly confused. I dont know if its cos i was tired or maybe the movie is just not that exciting. You know what, I love my super heroes masculine and butt kicking abled men not comedic and sloppy so maybe thats why im confused or many Kaito's accent confused me.  grin

There were few funny parts though. (Like Kaito's accent) lol. Talking about funny, see Harold and Kumar escape from Guatanamo bay.

By the way wusup with all the greenhuh

Green Arrow- (Smallville)

Green Hornet- (No trace of green except when they killed innocent pple wearin green) mmmh Seth Rogen

Green Lantern- Now thats d kind of super hero im talking about. Cant wait for it to come out. I love me some Ryan Reynolds.[quote][/quote]

You've got to respect Ben Affleck for Starring and directing this movie. Awesome plot!
My craziest scene was when they were getting away after a bank robbery. They were in their nun outfits and stopped to switch cars den they hear a radio go off describing them and lo n behold there is a cop right beside them and now they're staring at the cop and the cop is staring at them and after what seemed like 2 minutes of staring, the cop just looked away like he didn't see them. WOW! that was just sooooo real. I was like great writing cos any normal cop who dosen't want to get killed would and should do that. That scene was insane.
