oyaskii: I was surprised when this got a bad press on here and i almost avoided it but less than 10 mins in, Wade was already roasting Happy, in the most insane way 🤣.
I have since clocked that i probably should stop looking for Albert Einstein-level-intricate plot in movies, let alone from a CBM, and maybe i would enjoy movies more for the entertainment they bring...good jokes, foul mouthed, insane 4th wall break, roleplaying and satirizing real life events, and slo mo brute action? I'm sorry this is %100 entertainment i signed up for!.
I didn't care for the multi versal, time line integrity hullabaloo that was going on in the BG, i didn't even care to understand it as it was clear that the main purpose of this movie was for MCU to bind 2 of their most Iconic amd relatable characters together in one flick, and probably let some oldies, like Big Unc Wesley Snipes, who have been out of the game for long with financial troubles also break bread and eat....i mean they weren't aiming for the Oscars, lets be for real 😩.
I'm sorry, but this was not a bad movie, and if they decide to keep making it, till they are 90? I'm afraid, i will be showing up 😩. 😩 fr brother, Anyone who didn't laugh during this movie is either going through the thick of it or has insane Botox. I laughed so hard during Chris Evans turning into fire guy I almost spat on someone at the front of the cinema. Also the movie actually had a really serious message about acceptance. I could rewatch the movie again and again |

Mrmxyzpltk12: Okay. Thanks but you have a point tho. Holland should avoid being typecast. Daniel Radcliffe escaped it as Harry Potter and even though he had somewhat retired from acting - everyone knows he has range. Tobey Maguire couldn't escape it. Only Andrew Garfield as Spiderman escaped it |

Mrmxyzpltk12: I've said this multiple times here.
*Be in a top or well respected director movie, *at least a top indie director film, *a project that has been nominated for a major category in BAFTA, OSCAR, EMMY. * A blockbuster * A critically acclaimed film * Or a really popular decent movie. * A studio major film
All these in significant roles.
I mean it's somewhat simple to be in a serious project in two years if you've cracked the limelight. All the more made easy if you're an actor who's been Spiderman, top 3 most iconic CBM characters in history for 7 years! Ok that's YOUR definition- the actual definition is an actor who has been famous before but is no longer relevant because her/she hasn't been in the spotlight or in popular movies anymore - it doesn't matter whether it's a significant role or a supporting role. Tom Holland is still a relevant actor right now - he's still being talked about regularly despite not making a movie |

Mrmxyzpltk12: Seeing Riz Ahmed name..... man's doing well for himself. Tom Cruise didn't have a serious project from 2018-2022, would you consider that a dead career that was resurrected😂? |
TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Illusioneffect(m): 9:40am On Oct 26, 2024 |
Mrmxyzpltk12: Yep...no one really knows what the movie is about. When time comes sha we will know for sure.
His career is almost dead to me...only kept alive by the next MCU project. I'm sorry but I don't take actors who aren't in a serious project for two years seriously. What is your definition of a serious project? |

GloriousGbola: Apparently the guy has a serious drinking problem Same thing happened to Sam Worthington. At a point he was looking like he would be Hollywoods next action star, then he disappeared. Fake news bro- he had an addiction to drinking in social gatherings but it wasn't serious to the extent of affecting his career. He was just type-cast. Being Spiderman affected his career not drinking and he has never touched a drink since 2018 |

Mrmxyzpltk12: Chris Nolan just resuscitated this dude's career.
Without the MCU man has been nothing!! Another article said his movie is about vampires. What is going on? By the way - his career was never dead. For an actor his age he was still active |

abduleez1: Bruh, me and you dey the same predicament.
I always shout GOT is my best TV show of all time but I know within myself I no fit sit down myself rewatch am. Bruh, that's 8 seasons of wasting time of something I already watched and know about. Time I don't have and could have used on something fresh. There's tons of movies and shows I would like to watch that I haven't.
I remember watching The Batman in 2022 in a cinema and loved it. But few months later when it got released digitally I downloaded it again but I didn't rewatch it. Cos I ask myself, I vividly remember almost everything on this shit. Why waste that hours when I can get something else? The experience in the theatre was breath taking too with the screen and premium speakers. Why downgrade the experience?
The only reason I'll be able to rewatch many shows I loved or watched before is if I have friends or family watching it on TV near me. But me myself? It's hard not cos I think they're not good anymore.
Too many good shows comes out every damn week now. So it's impossible to watch even half of them.
I see stats like these on my TV and movies app and I get scared not barely scratching the surface of my personal watchlist. And new projects both old and new keeps enlarging the list everyday. 😩 👇🏽 Omo that’s you o. It has been a long time I rewatched GOT but if I had the time to do it again, I won't hesitate. Game of Thrones is not even long compared to what some folks are rewatching right now like Prison Break, Walking Dead. There was a time I was even rewatching Friends😩 but no time again |

abduleez1: Reason why I dey find explanation. Texas, California and other Southern parts of USA were actually acquired from Mexico. So naturally, there'd be lots of Hispanic and constitute a big demographic. That's not actually the reason. Texas was almost completely empty when the States bought- the main factor is migration. Almost 40% of Americans come from migrants - legal migrants |
TV/Movies › Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Illusioneffect(m): 10:38am On Oct 23, 2024 |
abduleez1: Over 80%?? That's a pretty strong rhetoric. 😳 Can I see fact & figures or data backing this up??
Just curious. 80%😆 when most of the people in Texas here are Hispanics and they are here legally. It's more like 5-15% |

pu7pl3: And the narrator said she is just 2yrs older than him oh. I guess he's just too naive. Tragic way to go tho and he apparently took his mom with him. I downloaded this the first day it came out but the quality was bad. I'll download later but you guys are spoiling the shit out of it |

abduleez1: I know its not made by Disney. I've forgotten the channel name it airs on whether its PBS Kids or something and I know parents worldwide love it. I just hate it and also mentioned other shows like it I disdained. Ok o that's you but if you have children some day best thing they could watch on TV is Bluey - It's the best and innovative show for little children and parents too |
TV/Movies › Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Illusioneffect(m): 6:38am On Oct 21, 2024 |
abduleez1: Lol, that stupid dog I hate the most?? It's the most hated show amongst all the present nonsense cartoons they watch in my presence. I wanted to state its name and how much I hated it but I don forget the werey name. 😤🙃 Bluey and that Disney Mickey Mouse show with Muppets shouting "oh tu dos" or whatever the hell they speak alongside PJ Pests deserved to be banned for life.
Its only SpongeBob and TMNT that Purple said are the worthwhile toons they watch. The rest deserve to be snapped out of existence.
Disney shows are the worst with pandering and dumb dialogues.
There's one I actually enjoy on Nickelodeon, it's a shorts animation with basically 2-4mins long episodes in between breaks. It was mostly slap stick Comedy of some sort and kinda Nick's own version of Minions. Are you sure you know the show I'm talking about because you're the only person in the world I've heard hate on the show😭. It's not action or anything but it's very well written and parents really love the show for their kids. It's also not made by Disney. It's an Australian show |
TV/Movies › Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Illusioneffect(m): 8:15pm On Oct 20, 2024 |
oyaskii: He is fooling. Not many people arsed about this show that much again or how it will end. Took too way too long just to get to this point for no apparent good reasons.
The only season finales that held the entire world on a chokehold in recent memory were "Felina" from BB and "The Iron Throne" from " (which turned out to be a wee disappointment btw) GOT".
So no other season finales is touching these 2, especially when TV serials is at it's lowest ebb...so oga release this shii, STFU and keep it moving fgs 😩 I don't think he's - I'm a Stranger Things lore fan and I've been following the s5 developments and lore for 2 years now. The Duffer Brothers have had a consistent plan and story since the first episode and there's no room for disappointment since they own the story. The directors of the episodes are also very awesome. The Director of Shawshank Redemption and the Walking Dead is directing multiple episodes - he literally came out of retirement because the script was so captivating to him. Also Shawn Levy is back. He directed three of the best episodes of Stranger Things. The only problem I've with stranger things is it's ending 😭😭 |

abduleez1: Jimmy Neutron was an annoyance cos of one of my best friends that loved mimicking one of the stupid characters voice and accent....was it Jimmy abi na Felix?? 🤔
Johnny Bravo remains a classic just like: I am Weasel, Cow and Chicken, The Flintstones, Justice League Unlimited, Superman (with the episodes with Lobo being my fave), Batman Beyond, Biker Mice, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Captain Redbeard, Dexter. We had tons of quality cartoons to watch during the weekdays and weekends nonstop.
I weep when I see the kind of crappy low tier cartoons kids of nowadays have to watch. Rubbish like PJ Masks, Vampirella etc... The only cartoon that's a masterpiece right now is Bluey - the rest is just quantity over quality, producers don't put much effort in making good shows anymore because children will watch anything |

LifestyleTonite: Why Penguin series is hot with a good story:
No LGBTQ+ junk in it.
No stupid nude display.
No pandering to diversity.
In a nutshell, no wokeism.
I'm just afraid that the Alphabet mafias might force the show to involve all the above or there will be no second season. But most importantly giving the writers free rein to write good stories. Warner Bros is trying to add diversity to the 3 main cast in Harry Potter- Looks like J.K. Rowling is suing them |

This is the level of animation I was expecting from Invincible. It doesn't have to be like Arcane but it has to look beautiful and sharp.
I love this Thing is the folks who animated this animated Invincible too |

abduleez1: The IMDb score of 5.9/10 wey I see no dey inspiring o. I see say na 1997 show. Is the animation still good?
What's the story about sef? Am I the only one that can't watch old classic animes of those years nowadays because the animation is terrible in today's time and you can never get really good 720p/1080p quality Only One Piece has really clear quality and average animation but it makes up for with clever writing. Animes like Dragon Ball, Naruto not Shippuden, Sailor Moon and Bleach |

abduleez1: Bruv, you get. Lol, so you chop cane for small. 😂😂
Well I wasn't one for visiting neighbours when my parents was around sha.... Dem no born me well. But you see football, na almost everyday I chop beating cos of that one. Sent on errands and I'll loose guard or sneak out of mom's shop to go play with colleagues.
One cartoon had me late AF during my primary 2-4 years. I no dey miss my early morning Silver Hawk for STV in the morning. Pinky and the Brain sef dey to boost brain small before starting the day. I was consistently late I got nicknamed the latecomer  funny thing be say my house no reach 1min walk from school. 😆😆😂 Pinky and the brain, Jimmy Neutron and Johnny Bravo was a must watch at that time but I always watched it in someone else's house and play Grand Theft Auto - my folks will think we were studying from morning till night not knowing I was playing a +18 game all day😆😂 |

Then complain about Severance not being released  OhBrittania ratings are too high and I always say it and sometimes make fun of it but it's not that deep. Everybody's taste is different - understood! But I'll keep on trolling his ratings nonetheless💀 because they're funny |

Ishilove: The movie looks gross. I'll pass I think it's actually something YOU would love. It's not gross. It's about the female body and how society and the entertainment industry treats women when they're past their prime. It's a horror movie but its story about the female body is so good I wrote a 1,000 words essay on it on Reddit |
