I'll just say this here and now; A for plenty effort, but it was a wasted one. That movie's story gives me bad old Nollywood writing vibes. Couldn't they have done better than hot dog fingers for instance? The movie creeps me out sef.

Bros you no sabi watch film.

The movie leans into the absurd and it makes sense.
In a reality where anything is possible, if you don't show the absurd happening, then you just wasted an opportunity

Opinions are subjective. Some people thought her performance was mid,some thought it was great....at the end of the day,Jaime Lee Curtis got the highest vote. It's just like my opinion that Cate was robbed for Elizabeth at the 1999 Oscars with Gwyneth winning best actress that year for Shakespeare in love

You don't understand my question.
I'm asking if it's possible to win an Oscar for best supporting character when the movie you starred in is extremely mid

is it possible for someone to win a supporting character Oscar for starring in a very mid movies.

I'm asking because of people that are claiming that Angela Bassett should have won

A well deserved win for Everything, Everywhere all the once.
Truly one of the best movies of the decade

superCleanworks:
ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT. Excellent movie from start to the last bullet. No need for plenty talk.

Everything Everywhere All at Once - this is definitely not for shallow and unintelligent people. If you watched this movie just once and you understood it then you must have a very high IQ and I would like to be friends with you. Kindly quote me.
The story line and the editing is out of this world. Michelle Yeoh finished everything called acting in this movie.

DON'T LOOK UP - I wonder why this movie was not on the oscars list. It is a complete story of how Nigerians behave even when the truth is right in their face.

Don't look up came out in 2021

Beorn:
I wasn't impressed by the trailer TBH.

there has been dozens of D& movies - all of them have been bad.
I wouldn't expect this one to be any different

When the GOAT himself has transcended football!! 🙌🙌

It's most likely going to be cringe like that awful FIFA movie

Ishilove:
Rewriting these stories are just ruining my childhood memories of them. I really dislike Disney

"you know the original movie still exist right ? This new iteration of the story does not dent the previous one in anyway.
The originals is most likely going to be better than this one (based on the precedent that the other live action movies have set) with or without the inclusion of minorities, so don't buy into the racist talking point of "the movie is bad because of black people."

A Man called OTTO "2022"

O.T.T.O.!

This strip down version of Clint Eastwood's Gran Torino (2008) sees Tom Hanks play the titular character, a grumpy and solitary man whose grumpiness is explained through a side by side back story, with Tom Hanks actual real life son playing his younger version. His life is seemingly turned upside down when a new family moves in next to him. Despite his initial reluctance, Otto is drawn into their lives and learns the value of love, family, and community. Hanks is really solid as Otto and brings his warmth and humor to the role, while still maintaining plenty of grumpiness. But Mariana Treviño was the standout as Marisol one of the new neighbors. She brought an immense amount of charm to the role and makes her disarming of Otto's gruff exterior completely believable. The film has a warm hearted message along with some deeper themes of loss and longing, but at the same time it plays out quite predictably making the overall drama feel more generic than it is emotionally moving. It's a cute film nonetheless, and a pretty easy recommendation.

Sounds boring!

Miracood2:
Wakanda Forever 6.8/10 (will have to approx it to 7/10) ~ (a weak 7/10)

Not as bad as it was projected here.The final fight was a bit lame. And no sensible explanation was given on how Namor was able to penetrate wakanda city.

I also wonder how Wakandans claim the be the greatest, but they do not have any sensible military.

Overall, it's a very watchable film, and I loved the part where I heard Burna boy's alone soundtrack.

To be fair, the boss fight of the first Wakanda movie was also lame

Baddestguyp:
‘AQUAMAN: THE LOST KINGDOM’ is reported to have had test screenings and reactions have people calling it the “Worst DCEU Movie Ever”.

Lol.
That doesn't sound possible nah

Is that Jordan Peterson?

John Cena

Dark October.

I watched a recap because I no go subject myself to Naija film unless e worth am. Anybody who complains that Linda Ikeji exploited the story is an enemy of progress. I found it hard to believe both sides of the divide were touched in the movie. The average Nigerian will rather demonize the community as a whole for what happened. If the parents manage to watch this, they will feel relieved that their sons were documented semi positively in their final days of existence. Linda has played her part in making the series of incidents mainstream. Our government is useless and will do nothing regarding jungle justice because it doesn’t affect them. Make poor man continue to kill poor man. E no fit spoil their cash flow.

Why the f*ck would you even say that?
Sometimes una go just dey talk like say una no get sense

Black Panther: WF. 9/10.

My internet was acting up so I clicked this to test my connection. I was entertained from start to finish.

I long concluded that people on the internet are timid individuals whose words are both unneeded and irrelevant in real world conversations. This makes them lash out by posting vitriol whenever triggered over something. Marvel movies are mainstream. They are prone to receiving the ire of incels. See CrossFit, “junk” food, the LGBTQ, black rights and many others for example. I will view films henceforth with an open mind free from prior criticism. What matters in the end is if one was entertained.

Costumes: A+.

Soundtrack: A+.

Story: A+. I could suggest a little here and there, but I am not a movie writer.

Pacing: A. The movie was two hours and thirty minutes. It felt a little over ninety minutes to me.

VFX: Okay. Digital elephants were unnecessary since real ones could be used. Maybe CGI was cheaper in that aspect. With Avatar perfecting acting in water, we may experience realistically grounded Talokans in the next movie. Then again, James Cameron has utilized underwater acting since times-before-many-here-were-born and the method still isn’t mainstream.

Two things which pulled me out were:

1. “Imperious Rex.” This was dumb. I know Coogan yielded to pressure from higher ups to include it. Yes, it is Namor’s battle cry. However, in this iteration, he’s a fourteenth century Mayan. He literally predated archeology. Wait till another appearance where he’ll pick the phrase after experiencing the modern world.

2. T’Challa Jnr. Highly unnecessary. It was hinted in the first movie that a relationship had long sailed between Nakai and T’Challa. This character was shoehorned for an in case reason.

I regretted not watching this in the cinema.

The director could explain T’Challa’s death as vibranium poisoning. In real life strange occurrences take place. I don’t see why the MCU would prove any different. Adamantium poisoning worked unopposed in Logan.

Vibranum poisoning wouldn't make sense though.
There has been many Black Panthers before, so if Vibranum was poisonous, it would have been common knowledge considering the level of technology.


Also hiding T'chala Jnr in a shit hole like Haiti doesn't make sense.
Like, who are they hiding him from?
Why would anyone think it's best to raise a future leader away from his people?

Zero for ipeleng

What happened to Kanaga that Big Brother keeps. Referencing?

DonMarkuzi:
Why can't we do this.

Because we don't need to.
We have a lot of land so it makes zero sense to build a high rise just o rare pigs
