I am never the one to try and thrash one's beliefs as far as it is not posing a danger to other people. I am not against the muslims or what they believe in (I have some muslim friends) I am just against the killings which has unfortunately become a staple in our country.
Unfortunately, some people think it is a joke and come up with ridiculous lines like ''It is the work of bad Muslims''. . . Christians are fornicators too, therefore there are ''Bad Christians'' and ''we are even''. What a friggin shame. Makes you wish they'd go through the almajiri's ''blade of peace'' and live to tell the tale so that next time they'd know when to crack tasteless jokes and when to zip it.

You import car, na yawah. . . you make your own, na hell fire. As long as you're dealing with humans, you just can't please everyone! It's like telling a pregnant woman to abort the baby because they believe the child is an Abacha incarnate. You can fume all you want but this project is going to happen. Let's wait for the 'test drive' before we start analyzing what we haven't seen. Black people and inferiority complex. . . If the product fails to meet the specified safety standards, then we can tell the manufacturers to go back to drawing board until they come up with something exceptional. It's that simple.

I think we should get all the gory pictures of the slaughtered victims and forward them to Almondjoy, because I am of the opinion he is not shocked by the habitual slaughter of Christians by Islamic fanatics in the North, this is evident in his comparison of the condemned Rev. King and the whole 'we are even' statement. Perhaps I am the one who is guilty of misinterpreting his posts. 'Political correctness' can be a $%#@! sometimes.

Art, Graphics & Video › Re: Tiny 3d Portfolio by grafikdon: 8:52am On Oct 09, 2007
@ OKX. . . that may be the code of conduct in Nigeria because in US/UK and the world over, revealing the tools used by studios for a particular project is the norm. Blur studio has never made it a secret they're a massively 3D Max only studio. They (VFX Studios including ILM, Weta, Framestore CFC, Cafe FX and Rainmaker) mention the tools including in house proprietary tools and back it up with some video demonstration depicting in details all the stages involved . If you take a look at some DVD extra, you will find them. The examples are everywhere. Seen the making of Sandman with Side Effects Houdini Master, detailed VFX of the movie Serenity with Newtek Lightwave and others too numerous to mention. I think ZPixel is in order here if I should use what is obtainable from the world as a yard stick. Again, Nigeria probably has a different modus operandi.

Bottom line is to send a very strong message to the religious zealots. . . round them up and execute them for murder, I am pretty sure that will send a strong message. Unfortunately those who will put the zealots in order turn and look the other way, which I believe makes them as guilty as the brainless murderers. Someone suggested the Christian should vacate the troubled spots in the North but I don't think that is a bright idea. Every Nigerian has the right to settle down in any part of the country, besides some of the murdered and butchered Christians are Northerners so why would a man run away from his father's land because of a handful of brain dead ''Allah Arched Bar'' murderers?

Assuming everyones decided to let them be by moving away from them, what really makes you think they won't take their 'Jihad' down to the South anytime a Muslim from Bangladesh draws a picture of Muhammad with bikini and thong? I have noticed a pattern on Nairaland; everyone who condemns the senseless killing of innocent Nigerians in the North is labeled a "Anti North''. We waste our trying to figure if the killers were yelling 'Allahu Arched bar'' Or "Otito Dili Jesu'' while cutting down Innocent Christians like grasses. . . obviously, some of us are not disturbed by this display of 1440 style barbarism in 2007.

Nah. . . I don't think so. SJ is unique and pretty much different from the pack but there's no way you can tag it the 'most mature'. . . not when we have shows like Samurai Champloo and Trinity Blood. . . heck, even Eureka 7, Inuyasha, Naruto and Bleach are even more 'matured' than Samurai Jack. Perhaps you need to throw more light on what you mean by 'mature' because I am of the assumption you were referring to more adult oriented animation and storyline.

Chineke God of Saudi Arabia shocked shocked shocked I d u n n o. . . I think the most tolerant Muslims are the ones in Yorubaland, Senegal and USA. I live amongst these people and they have not shown any iota of intolerance. . . apart from their reaction (disgust) when they found out I eat pork (I can understand the pork resentment. . . no pork talk around them but as soon as I am on my own. . . its pork chow all the way). They never tied to initiate a divorce between me and my lovely pork. . .could be because I am not religious so we don't have much religious discussion apart from some Biblical and Quranic(sp?) references.

I once thought maybe the ones in the USA are behaving because the LAW actually WORKS here, besides the fact that NYPD will shoot you 900 times in the gut the moment you attempt the ''Allah Arched Bar" massacre of 'Infidels', but I lost that train of thought because the tolerant Yoruba Muslims are also part of the 'Lawless Nigeria', the highly tolerant Senegalese Muslims are also part of that "Lawless Africa''. I still believe the whole intolerance bothers on ignorance, misconception, racism and ethnic antagonism. I am very positive some people read the Quran upside down while some people read it but give it some twisted interpretation to suit their twisted imagination.

There are clueless fanatics and zealots in every religion and I believe the clueless Muslim fanatics from the north are in the minority. Here's the big problem; The moderates who I believe are the real Muslims and the majority are SILENT. . . they have what it takes to check the insignificant clueless fanatics amongst them but their silence is not only dense, it is disturbing. What we see everyday is moderates (From Nigeria and the Arab world) like Denex (I assume Denex is Muslim, if not, my sincere apology) glossing over the atrocities of the fanatics and diverting attention to the misconceptions and accusations leveled on Islam, including when it has nothing to do with a present problem/situation. There is always the absence of condemnation from the moderate Muslims (except in a few isolated cases) which lends credence to the numerous misconceptions surrounding Islam today.

It is difficult for me to understand because I know that the Muslim population in Senegal can't be anything less than %95, yet they don't pick up arms and go on rampage whenever. My Senegalese Friends who are Muslims always shudder at the level of religious intolerance exhibited by the few clueless zealots in the North, according to them; those people must be reading a different version of the Quran and smoking adulterated marijuana while at it.

I think we have a case of religious fanaticism, bigotry, obliteration of the line between culture and religion, a silent moderate majority, ethnic antagonism, ignorance, prejudice and poverty all rolled in one.

I have been dating with a nigerian for 4 years, we love each other but he told me he wont get married with me because he is the oldest son and he must get married with a woman from nigerian because it is the culture.
I am very sad
I have been crying a lot
It is too much for me
This topic had helped me open my mind
I just don't understand how can the rules someone had invented (culture) be stronger than the lovehuhhuh cry
It's unfortunate. But the good news is many Nigerians do not look that perspective anymore. They marry anyone they find compatible irrespective of race, nationality and religious affiliation and the results are everywhere to prove it. Your ordeal is not the end of your life, it hurts but you gotta move on and like we say in Nigeria; 'there are many fishes in the river'. Go get that fish that will love you unconditionally. wink

Millions of Naira to shoot a 3 minute movie? What a waste of resources! They must be swimming in money!
It isn't impossible, I know of a 4 minute Naija video that was made with a budget N1.6 M, it gets higher than that depending on the people involved, but I don't think they spent millions on that video. . . but again, trust Nigerians to inflate figures. N250,000.00 = N6 Million. cool

Looking good, now a little match moving would blow the roof off and make eyes pop out. . . we're definitely getting there. . . if only Nollywood producers will at least spent 4 months on their movies to work out and fix the flaws instead of the usual 24 hours. . . this video is an example of what you get when you spend a little extra time on a project. . . and a little extra money too. . . the end of 'kpa kpa kpa' is coming. . . making a film is not like roasting corn or gari processing. . . heck, you can't even rush gari processing. . . you gotta take your friggin' time.

They are looking for avenues to build their Military Base in our Gulf so that they can be delivering their weapons to MEND directly instead of using 3rd party.

They want to have a 3rd Gulf War which will feature in Nigeria. Devil solder their head.

The real threat of terrorism is the USA itself. So let them allow Nigeria to build a Military Base in New York with about 10 million Nigerian thugs, touts, area boys, al-majiris and OPC recruited as soldiers and shipped to the Big Apple to protect our interest in the USA. Being that the USA is our largest market, we cannot afford to allow any harm befall it. We must protect it. We must built a 10 million strong military base.
