TV/Movies / Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by IbrahimMav: 5:16pm On Jul 24, 2022
Henry Cavill is busy filming The Witcher 3 right now, so he's busy.
He's not like he can do two things or be at two places simultaneously.
And besides, he'd be a fool to sideline The Witcher project where he's getting paid a shit ton of money (as well as have special privilege to influence the script), for a project where he won't influence the script or be the highest paid star onscreen.
Henry Cavill is a nerd with a pretty face who has read all the comics, played all the video games and know superman inside out, but to think he's in out of the goodness of his heart is incredibly naive.
He's an entertainer and he entertains for a living, and like any half decent career, he does it for money. Acting isn't charity.
The fans want him, so it's in WB best interest to do whatever it takes to acquire his services.
WB need him more than he needs them, and as long as it stays that way, Cavill will continue to play hardball.
It's what every good actor who knows their worth does to earn more money.
He's just a good businessman.

You got anyone ready to sell a steam deck?
Nope.

The Aya neo pro 2022 beats it but not price friendly since they want to sell their console only and not games

Nah the best gaming handheld right now is Steam deck.
Aya neo pro has a better cpu but bottlenecked by its gpu.
And this is where Steam deck is superior. Thanks to its powerful gpu, it runs AAA games better on 15 Watts than Aya neo pro on 28watts.
Aya neo doesn't have a prayer of besting steam deck until Aya neo 2 rolls out.
It's supposed to be twice as powerful as steam deck....we will see.
As of right now tho, Steam deck is the better gaming handheld and a better value for money.

Reading your post has convinced me that reincarnation exists, because no one can possibly be as stupid as you in one lifetime.

Your pitiful mindset only goes to show that the closest you'll ever get to getting your dick wet is by wanking it to a granny porn while it's stuck between your vasline caked palm.

You must have had a depraved childhood to be so fvcked up in the head, cuz it's not normal to be sexually attracted to your Mom's age mates.

Maybe your mom sexually assaulted you in your childhood? I dunno... people don't just grow up with a granny fetish out of the blue, it's usually a reaction to a childhood trauma. It's possible you're attracted to your Mom. It wouldn't surprise me at all. Your crazed posts have a Motherfvcker vibe to them.

I love casual vawulence grin

For example, Jenifer Lopez has quicker access to the queen of England than the president of Chad.

Jennifer Lopez will never be allowed to see the queen because of her risque life style.

It's the same reason Rihanna with all her billions will never be allowed an access to Queen Liz.

The royal family are a bunch of snubs and vets everyone rigorously and if you so much as have a nude picture available on the internet, it's game over.

Shows of these days simply do not have the onions and flair to make 8-10 good seasons of the same show...writers these days aren't that good.
Honestly I prefer quality to quantity.
The most I can watch a show is season 6.
I've a short attention span.
I wish every show will end in season 5, that'd be perfect.

That has been the goal from S2. Homelander been the "main vilian" is pretty set in stone now. S3 had a pretty tight writing with the Soldier boy arc but they almost didn't stick a proper landing with that finale. They have like 2 more seasons to go to round everything up imo, any stretch more than that could see the show become sour quick.

Shows of these days simply do not have the onions and flair to make 8-10 good seasons of the same show...writers these days aren't that good.
I'd prefer Homelander losing his powers to dying tbh.
Let him live like the rest of us mud people and see just how stressful life can be.
However, the revelation that supes who lose their powers can regain it by shooting up compound v has kinda ruined that possibility.
Coupled with the fact that The Boys writers deliberately give the most humiliating end to villains who represent extremist ideologies to counter the unironical idolization of these characters by certain viewers.
So yes, I'd agree that Homelander's fate is firmly set in stone.

I already reviewed Dr strange sometime back, hence my "subpar" conclusion. I just didn't jump to that.

Reading this reply also showed you're just being emotional about marvel movies. I'm a big fan of marvel, I've seen all their movies but I don't comment with emotions. The few good things about marvel phase 4 movies are the graphics and sometimes acting, the fight scenes, the plot, the direction and many others things have been below par, considering how marvel's movies were.

As for Thor 4, I've read trusted reviews (not just nairaland garbage) on the plot, the delivery, the acting and the likes, like I said, the acting seems to be the highlight. I'm still seeing it on Wednesday.

Also, I'm not sure any movie goer opinion count on here so calm your nerves. Your opinions do not matter too, that doesn't mean you can't opine on what you want. At the end of the day, it's just a movie, just entertainment, enjoy, argue, laugh and move on, doesn't have to be more than that or send subliminal shots below the belt.


Note: a movie going on to make crazy money doesn't mean it's good just like movie making shitty money doesn't make it bad. I'm sure you know this though but your emotions won't allow you accept that fact.

Yes I was emotional, I won't deny it.
The crux of the matter is that you started by deriding emotional movie reviewers, and then went on to make a negative post about Marvel movies.
Doctor Strange is an objectively good film and it pains me that you called it subpar without giving good reasons.
I would just as easily be pained if someone called The Batman a shitty movie out of the blue.
As a lover of good CBM, if you critique one without giving a good reason, it automatically sets me off.
Doesn't matter if it's DC or Marvel, I will react exactly the same way.
BTW, I never said my opinion mattered. I was just pointing out how futile our opinions are in the general scheme of things.

I was sha looking at all of you that day and wondering whether we watched the same show or y'all were watching 1-minute recaps on YouTube.

I was just disappointed with the season finale and it affected my judgement.
I can now see why things played out the way they did.
The stakes are now higher than ever.

I know I said at first that nothing really happened in season 3 but I said this in the heat of the moment.
After I have had time to recollect myself and fully digest the season, i've come to realize that a lot of things happened.

we found out that Vicky Neuman was a secret Vought agent.
We found out her real name was Nadia.
We found out that her mentor was Edgar.
We found out about Temp V.
Homelander becomes the head of Vought after a coup engineered by him and Neuman.
The Deep returned to the 7.
Homelander killed Black Noir.
Starlight quits the 7.
Maeve lost her eye and powers.
Butcher lost Ryan to Homelander.
Homelander's Dad is Soldier Boy.
A-Train got a new heart.
The Deep ate a live octopus.
The Deep fuccked an octopus....twice.
The Deep separated from his wife.
Butcher has a year to live.
Neuman is becoming the VP.
3 members of the 7 are gone.
Homelander realizes his fanatical supporters don't care if he murders someone in public.
Frenchy and Kimiko grew closer.
For the first time in the series, characters lost and regain powers.

A shit ton of things happened.
Kripke has let it slip Homelander will die before the show comes to an end....
I wonder how the story will progress without him...
I have a feeling Ryan will play a crucial role in the later part of the series
Season 4 and 5 will be a bloodbath for sure.

The sea beast is a very dumb movie.

It started out great until they introduced nonsense into the movie. Should we just believe and have faith in a kid because she's just a kid?

Calm down, it's a children's movie, what did you expect?
Some of you like to put every minor detail under a microscope, forgetting that they are left that way because they are plot devices that advance the plot.
A few days ago, someone questioned the feasibility of time travel used in Endgame, forgetting that the same film has a talking raccoon.
Abeg leave matter for Mathias.
Some things are just what they are, they don't need you to overstress yourself.

Lol....


One thing about movie review here is that there are many reviews done with emotions. One has to review and)or critique with reasons but someone here will just give 3/10, say it's shitty, just like that, that's the end.

Anyways, enjoying movie is subjective and to each it's own.

I enjoyed "last seen alive" yet online movie reviews all said it's shitty. I'm waiting to see Thor (love and thunder) on Wednesday, let me see how marvel will impress after the subpar money grab called Dr Strange 2.

After Thor (if it's as bad as many review), maybe marvel should just forget phase 5 because there have been too many below par movie in phase 4. The fact that they still make buckload of money won't change their approach anyway but they should know they're losing fans.

I find it funny that you ended up doing exactly what you said others do.
I was expecting you to make an objective post but you ended up making a completely subjective one devoid of any objectivity.
The same Doctor Strange 2 you called "subpar" is an objective success story.
Its word of mouth is B which implies it's a very good movie even if it's not excellent.
It means moviegoers loved it.
It might not have made a billion bucks but it's due to it not getting a Russian and Middle east release.
So as you can see, your tagging it "subpar" is just you being emotional.
Calling it subpar is another way of saying it's shitty, just like that, that's the end.
As for Thor 4, while you're here projecting and claiming that Marvel is losing fans, its current word of mouth is B.
This is good news because it implies it's relatively well received by moviegoers and given time, will do the numbers.
The reality is Marvel is nowhere close to losing fans, if anything, it's gaining.
Many of you here in africa who get their movies on the high seas think your opinions mean shit?
Well they don't.

I'm not bothered by spoilers at all.

I hate suspense and the unknown and so I don't mind if people leak some of the details.

at least i'll know what to expect going in.

The guy leaking spoilers is actually doing me a favor because I read everything with glee.

S4 filming will start in August this year and end in March next year.

Season 4 will likely debut in September next year.

Jensen Ackles is still under contract so may return as soldier boy in either season 4 or 5.

But for me the biggest change was that scene at the end where Homelander killed the man

Yeah that was scary.

Homelander's biggest fear was that his fans will stop liking him if he kills a civilian, but now that he knows that they love him no matter what, we may see a completely unhinged Homelander next season. A scary thought.

Fucck Todd BTW. I hope he dies painfully next season.

my guess is season 4 and 5 will focus on how to stop Neuman and Homelander and save Ryan from turning into Brightburn.

Stop making excuses.

homelander threw punches at her but Maeve's combat skills were just superior.

She gave Homelander a bloody nose lol, chopped him down with a leg sweep, stabbed him in the ear, and finally super punched him to the other side of the room.
