abduleez1: I didn't dispute that Japan doesn't have great live action titles, they do but when compared to Korea, there aren't many japanese live action goated titles. Like I can name 10 great korean films produced within 2000 - 2022 but I can't do the same for Japan. As regards goated horrors, if Japan has only Juon and Ringu to call upon, Korea has it beat with The Tale of Two Sisters, The Wailing, The Haunted Asylum, and Bedevilled. In Anime, Japan is a world leader, but in other genres, they're not on par with Korea. |

GloriousGbola: This one typed skrep and ended up saying nothing....lol. And who said I was disputing the history and influence of Japanese cinema The crux of the matter is the fact that its glory days are over. Korea cinema has more influence now. Stop quoting me if you have nothing meaningful to contribute. 2 Likes |

NaijaMemes:You just proved my point You couldn't even name 10 purely made Japanese films. Some of the ones you named are mediocre Hollywood films with Japanese collaboration/influence...lol. Ringu and Juon are scarely quite alright but "The Wailing" is on another level. Battle Royale is overrated, couldn't fully immerse myself in it. 13 Assassins is goated. I haven't seen 7 Samurai. Japan make good films but their great films are few when you compare them to Korea. |

NaijaMemes: Bro, that's a big fat lie. Some of the best horrors are korean..... Can you name 10 great Japanese movies offhand? I know I can name 10 goated Korean movies offhand. Memories of Murder, Oldboy, Castaway on The Moon, I saw the Devil, Mother, Sympathy for Lady Vengeance, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, The Wailing, Bedevilled, Parasite. Japan seldom make interesting live action films. Anime dominates their pop culture. |

Jeffy1206: E bi like say you get comprehension issues, oga. Refurbished phone na phone wey dem don remove him factory defects finish, but because say e bi refurbished, e no too cost like new phones. The 43 inch Phillips 4k TV wey I dey use na refurbished from Europe. I don use am for 3 years going to 4, and e still dey gidigba. Refurbished products are products wey no get defects again unlike the new ones wey dey ship with factory defects. 1 Like |

Jeffy1206: Can a lost virginity be restored? No. Can a old phone be restored? Yes. Therefore it doesn't make any sense to compare lost virginity to a refurbished phone. I hope you get it now. 1 Like |

Jeffy1206: How You compared a refurbished phone to virginity, whereas a refurbished phone is a faulty/old phone that has been restored to new and sold at a discounted price, while virginity once taken, can't be refurbished/restored. So please help me make your virgin analogy make sense. How does a lost virginity correlate with a refurbished product 1 Like |

Jeffy1206: Lol, your analogy is invalid for one reason.... i) Virginity cannot be restored/refurbished. Next time, use an analogy that correlates with the topic. A better analogy is if someone buys an old house, and renovates to the point that it can pass for a new house, then sells it at a discounted price for profit. 1 Like

Jeffy1206: You said it as if it's a bad thing. I don't know where people get this idea that refurbished = substandard. Refurbish literally means renovate/restore/renew. A refurbished phone is a phone that has had all it's faulty components removed and replaced with non-faulty ones. A refurbished phone is as good as a new phone, and sometimes better. 3 Likes |

Phones / Re: Lost Iphone12 ..how Can It Be Found by IbrahimMav: 8:24am On Sep 26, 2022 |
blingxx: Newer Android devices are equipped with anti-theft software that allows the owner to either track it or brick it remotely. Infact, it's easier to track a stolen android than an iPhone because you only need to input the google ID (email) registered to your stolen phone in a google search box to track it automatically, and you can basically track it with any device that has internet access, be it iPhone, Laptop, Smart TV, etc. 15 Likes 1 Share |

fineboynl: For a service to be free trial, it means the service is free for a limited amount of time, usually 6-12 months, after which, you'd start paying for the service. So the guy you quoted is right, cuz as of now, MTN esim is free. 1 Like |

abduleez1: When I first watched it, I haven't read the Garth Ennis Hellblazer comics so I enjoyed it for what it was. On second watch, i've read the comics and to my chagrin, I saw it's a terrible adaptation, so I didn't enjoy it as much. On the 3rd watch, I'm fully aware it's a terrible adaptation but I wanted to appraise it with a fresher perspective, and guess what, I liked how it ditched the source and did its own thing. My point is, if you don't see it as a direct adaptation but as a standalone film about a lung cancer afflicted chain-smoking exorcist trying to bribe his way into heaven but ends up getting entangled in a secret conspiracy between Mammon and Gabriel, it's a fun movie. 1 Like |

GloriousGbola: I assume you're playing the devil's advocate, so i'll bite. The jetfighters, the countries, and top gun school are real, yes. However, being based on real life doesn't in any way undermine a fictitious element. Fiction by definition is something possible but not true. Where as fantasy = fiction, fiction ≠ fantasy. Many fictions are based on real life but their plots are fictitious, and this is where it matters. Can you draw historical parallels to the plot lines of the Top Gun movies? If you can, I'll humbly submit an apology for my grave error, But if you can't, then I see no reason why you would even attempt this question. 5 Likes |
