Sofia Falcone is 100% justified in whatever she does. They did her dirty!

abduleez1:
Lol, why do you say that? Cos of his packed schedule?? Or you're spoiling upcoming season??

Kaycee7:
This seems like a safe space to talk about how I've been reading The Eye of the World since last year and I'm not even halfway. Then I had to audacity to go and start Dune 😁

abduleez1:
No joke at all. There's tons of book in my library and more to add but sometimes I just know within myself say I dey whine myself. There's no time. The few ones I actually forced myself to read and while I quite enjoyed them I haven't read past 10% of the book's content. Talkless of the tons of literature and non fiction I haven't even started.

If it was during my younger years I would have cleared almost all if not all by now. I could easily read a full novel within 24hrs - 36hrs. Now it seems I read at snail's pace. The volumes of pages even scares me unlike before where I cherished seeing mountainous volumes of pages to read.

At least she understands Africa real need unlike Trump that think we are beggars in Africa surviving by US and other western countries' aids. Even small Gambia of less than 2M population, under their former leader told commonwealth to shove their aids in their ass.

Kamala understands the need, she already made some effort as VP and she said she will continue in that direction as president.

Invincible season 2 was anything but a great season.

Coming from season 1, it was very underwhelming. The release schedule and PowerPoint animation didn't help.

The season finale antagonist was someone who barely anyone could even remember. He appeared in like Episode 1 and disappeared.

Considering the mid season break, most people even forgot who he was when he appeared again at the finale. There was literally nothing compelling about him. The only thing I can recall him for is his big head.

Ask most random people what happened in Invincible S2 and they won't recall.

Personally all I can recall are the fish episode, Mark meeting his father and his new family and the final villain who I can only recall for his big head

abduleez1:
Same here bruh... I also haven't read any of her books even tho they're quite revered.
I plan to read some of her books and other authors I've missed over the years.
The problem is with finding time to actually read them.

abduleez1:
Nah bro.... That's just dictionary meaning and academic.

A blockbuster movie also means the money put into it, and pedigree of filmmakers behind it and scope of the film.

Then why are upcoming films like Minecraft, Wicked, Superman: Legacy etc tagged blockbusters despite not even out yet to measure their box office success. Why is Joker Folie á Deaux tagged a blockbuster flop?

LordReed:
The Chenchen ruler's truck has buyers? Where did you get that from?

It seems the media has cleaned off the klorox covering their eyes

ObaIgwe1:
I watched Kamala Harris interview about Black Agenda with Roland in North Carolina, and I like her response on the Africa continent question. Like I posted here yesterday, unlike Trump and his followers including raumdeuter; she understands that Africa has gone beyond aids and handouts, and what Africa needs and appreciate are business partners.

I didn't even know she visited Africa as VP and she said promoted many investments worth several millions in Africa. That's a good start.

China and now recently Russia are winning over many African countries with business partnerships worth several billions while Trump who knows nada about Africa think we are still living in caves and huts in Africa.

More expansion and global rollout continues...

Maannn...I haven't really any of Chimamanda Adichie's book despite all the raves they get. The only one i have read was, a short novella titled "Notes on Grief", and it was suggested to me, to get out a personal loss 😞. It was so good, and the writing style was top notch... I need to get into her works more 🤔

abduleez1:
Those stories are blockbusters in Nigeria's level. A Things Fall Apart adaptation will always be regarded as a blockbuster in Nigeria no matter who's adapting it. Same as Half of a Yellow Sun, Joys of Motherhood, Purple Hibiscus, The Last Days at Forcados High School, Arrow of God etc...

Damn, I need to go read some of these I missed.


Hollywood financial power and ours is different.

OhBritannia:
citadel Diana entire season 1 is a solid 8/10 for me.

The plot in this series is one thing i love about this series, it got to episode 5 before you fully realise what is going on and who really killed who.
Damm!! This is why i love spy series or movies that someone has to act as a double agent, working for an enemy agency isn't easy at all..

Since this series was set in a future 2030, i am made to believe that the breathtaking technological advancements we see in this series is them trying to tell us what they have in store for us for the future.
Where an item like a biro can fully transform into a full blown huge gun, where someone don't need to introduce himself or herself to you before you know who the person is, all you gats do is put something like an eye lid in your eyes and the person's entire information will flash down your eyes, though this technology is only for specific agents.

Another revelation this series tells you is that soon people's lives will now be at the hands of these agencies and government, all they have to do is put something inside the central water system and anyone from the city that drinks the water, their whole life's information and location is already been watched.
I have seen this being played out in so many series but i guess they are telling us ahead of their plans.
Sometimes i do appreciate living in Nigeria where we can dig our own bore holes because soon water being supplied by the government can't be trusted anymore, who is to say they haven't started it already in cities in usa and the UK.

Anyways back to the series proper, i can't believe the foolish son killed his own dad all because of a girl, the fool don't know that it is the same girl that killed his brother, same spy agent.

Season 2 will be interesting, i want to look at his face when he sees the foolish decision he has made.

Invincible might stuggle to build up hype again after it's poor release schedule and underwhelming second season

I could rewatch the first season, but I don't think there was anything in the second season worth rewatching...

oyaskii:
I read the piece and The title is as clickbaity as they come and the entire thing feels oxymoronic because this adaptation is 100% Hollywood as far as we know, and i still can't see how it helps Nollywood get ahead.

Why is the industry just showing interest now that a foreign industry has picked it up? why haven't they done an adaptation since the last one yester yester years ago?

Fact is, If Hollywood continues to pick up Nigerian literature to adapt, the praises sadly does not come to Nollywood. Nollywood can start doing themselves a favor, by adapting the 100s of good literature we have here.

abduleez1:
The industry is really invested in this adaptation...

Obrigardo:

GloriousGbola:
You clearly did not watch the rich Rebuilds video

He had a lot of funny words about cyber truck buyers and he was clear it's for people with more money than actual sense who want to make that statement.

Did you read what you wrote up there?

'Unlike other trucks it's useful for trucking'

ObaIgwe1:
Whatever... give me a link where she ever talk down fox news... it's just that everyone knows fox news is maga information outlet, yet she doesn't mind sitting down with them... Many of you Maga dared her to go to fox news, now she answers and you are still complaining.

Anyway, every additional vote counts.

Oya run down this new Harris new initiative for black men

GloriousGbola:
The tesla is not advertised as a luxury car, you vacuous dunce!

Elon musk himself said it is what blade runner would have driven. He says the car is bullet proof.

I guess the real market is cospalyers. People who will never actually need a truck

bemeruca:
that's why I asked her to go watch him. He criticizes the Truck and he is a Tesla lover, If armyofone is interested in a cyber truck then she should watch his review. I watched it 2 days ago. Army is not an engineer. if she wants to use it as a luxurious car, it is okay. it is when you want to do stuff you do with the F150 you start to see issues.

I doubt you even watched the review.

GloriousGbola:
The problem with whiny magats is how much they love to lie to themselves.

Just as there are liberal spaces on reddit, there are conservative spaces. There is even a cybertruck thread on reddit.

The big difference though is that most of the conservative spaces are always blocked to outsiders. I wonder why.

You have whistling diesel review
You have rich Rebuilds review

Keep on with the copium

Maybe you want tucker Carlsons review

It's a sunny day and Kamala is running rounds over the fascist rapist demented smelly swanky old man 🔥

GloriousGbola:
You spend your time spamming us with inane incoherent weird alternative facts you pull from your arsehole and you have the temerity to comment on reddit?

Please go ahead and buy one

A fool and his money are soon parted and like cybertruck owners they make for great entertainment.

GloriousGbola:
according to you - elon is a business genius who wound up paying more than the actual value of twitter - then in less than two years knocked the value down by over 60%? is that how you generate value?

is that how business geniuses work?

have you been following the news about musk's other work of art, the cybertruck? the apocalypse proof vehicle that cannot be driven safely in a car wash and falls apart when used for actual truck stuff?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_scBKKHi7WQ

real revolutionary development right there

a host of suckers in elons cult are throwing 70k a pop to beta test an expensive lemon
he definitely is a genius though - for getting people to pay 70k plus for a vehicle not worth 30k

IjeBos:
Boeing's been struggling for a while with safety issues.
This isn't surprising.
If it weren't for their government contracts it may be worse.
That's the problem with lobbyists and connections, you get too comfortable.

IjeBos:
Boeing is most likely not going anywhere.
Too many entrenched interests and government contracts.
In 2023 37% of its revenue came from government contracts.

This mess is another thing Trump gave us. Regulation is there for a reason. And you don't see the need for it, until something catastrophic happens. Then it's too late. Illusioneffect, isn't this one of Trump's regulatory framework changes you said was good for the US. How is that working out?
