I beg to differ.

T1 and t2 that's all. The others didn't make any sense.

T3 was wack. T4 was horrid t5 was horrible with Spartacus friend and dragon queen. T6 was laughable an aging terminator. They actually tried to explain an old Arnold.

T1 and T2 are it. Then the anime was just there for me.

Ok... your opinion tho.

BankyGee:
That Maharaja movie you recommended was so good. I let my review twice and got banned twice. I don't know why. It's indeed one of the best movies of 2024

naME?

abduleez1:
HBO just be dishing us prime cooking this Q4. 🤤🤩🤩

Is that Travis Fimmel I see aka Ragnar Lothbrok??
I will be there!!

Have you watched the penguin Premiere?

Lana1:
You are right. Around June last year. I guess they started filming season 2 as soon as they finished season 1

That was how series were before streaming and game of thrones killed it

samistry:
I recommend the original and it's sequel, judgement day. Then maybe salvation.
Skip the rest.

This might be only me but I preferred Terminator 3 way better than the first film- maybe it's nostalgia because it was my first time seeing a nude woman in a movie when I was a child. Kristina Loken was just drop dead gorgeous and still is and the movie still lives up today

abduleez1:
Seems we have our Hal Jordan.


And from the rumors I'm hearing his contract is just for a year and doesn't include a movie deal.
Which lends to the reasoning that he might be killed off? Or Parallax?

He looks like George Clooney

oyaskii:
First off... Impeccable choice of trailer song, just scintillating..."Pixies" where is my mind" is such a pristine choice 👏🏿

Secondly... Yeah this look so good, like it's actually the first MCU project that has gotten me excited to look forward to in awhile, based off this visuals.

Thirdly....is that Buckky!😭....


I am so so awakeeee 😩.

Still very skeptical - Marvel is now like a bag of stones and gold. Besides, the writing& creative team overhaul happened after this movie got filmed - it's still likely the same team behind Antman Quantumania. The Director's show Skeleton Crew is also coming up. Maybe the re-writes and date pushbacks did something let's see

pu7pl3:
This looks good
I think they just might recreate the magic of winter soldier.

Hey soldier

Pretty Woman - 8/10
Now I know why this was once the fifth highest grossing film of all time

SOZINN:
You've always been a clown. When someone chooses to defend what he's passionate about then you remember that there's no cash handouts involved and he's not on the planning committee with the executives. You and this your consistent bullshit, whenever you don't agree with someone we start seeing crap like this. 😂

This is definitely not you

Baddestguyp:
Today is Nigerian Cinema day.

All cinemas in Nigeria, movies are only 1k

When there's no interesting thing to watch right now😂, is Deadpool& Wolverine will playing in Nigeria

preciouswoman66:
Nice. I was looking for some espionage TV series and came across it.

I just started season 3 as I'm in episode 2.

Those couple are something else, if they existed in real life, their life would be really really disturbing for their kids

Exactly! Still one of the best series of all time

phr0nesis:
Same way they initially rated The Acolyte.
Are you watching Agatha?

Just watched the 1st 10 minutes - looks like it'll take two days to finish

phr0nesis:
I pity who de follow IGN rating. If those guys give any show a high rating, just know it will soon get cancelled

Exactly😂. IGN gave The Penguin pilot a 5/10 - pilot episode that's one of the best pilots I've ever watched but they gave Agatha the lesbian witch an 8 - series that won't last

preciouswoman66:
The Americans. Currently in season 3 and looking for something else to watch along with it

Me too😂 also in s3. Bro is dating his daughter's mate🤦🏽‍♂️ wtf!

LifestyleTonite:
The story of Jesus Christ is bigger than what you know. The reason why anyone can claim to be bored of it is simply because the person rejected Jesus. Jesus appears in almost every passage of the bible, right from Genesis to Revelation. Only his own can see him in those pages.

Most people don't even know that after Jesus died, he went to hell fire to suffer for our sins before God resurrected him and brought him back to life. Mel Gibson might explore that.

The nigg* is saying the story of Jesus Christ is overtold when in actuality it's in decline, not everyone understands the resurrection right now- most people in the United States have never EVER read the Bible or go to church so it'll definitely be new to a lot of people in a time when no one wants to make Christian movies or talk about Jesus because they'll cringe - it's what the Devil will definitely say- 'the gospel is so overtold'🤦🏽‍♂️ when it definitely isn't!
Most people don't even know the influence of the Passion of the Christ when it came out - children were giving their life to Christ - it prompted massive pilgrimages to Israel at the time and people coming out publicly to declare their faith.
Why not capture that essence again when the message is in decline through the visual telling of the resurrection that no one has ever captured on a grand scale in Hollywood. People forget everything in the first movie only happened for 12 hours

oyaskii:
It's a good thing to thoroughly think before you spew any rubbish to avoid making badly informed statements especially in a fora like this, you might look like a dunce thereafter if not.

😂Wow, and I actually thought you were the smart one here. I won't trade insults with anyone here all because I'm trying to make a valid point - it'll be asinine and 'pre-teen like' to do that.
You are simply just ignorant about how the business of Hollywood works right now. In your statement - you believe the story of the resurrection of Jesus Christ has been overtold?😂 That's actually very very untrue esp in Hollywood. If you count how many Christian movies in the last 10 years has recounted the resurrection of Jesus Christ - you won't count 5! That's not because it has been overtold but because Hollywood wants it to be ignored - no director or writer wants to make a 'Jesus' film because it'll hurt their career🤷🏽‍♂️ except you're already a well established director that can do whatever you want
To real Christians - the story of Jesus can never be overtold esp in a time where there's a big decline in the adherence to Christianity esp here in the US - most people don't know much about the resurrection I can tell you that🤷🏽‍♂️ and to those who do - it's a welcome development to actually see it on a big screen after a long time.
The people who you see making fun of the idea of a Jesus Christ movie on X are not the intended audience and they're likely not to even watching if it's any other Christian movie.
You said people don't want to watch a Christian movie. I can't tell you how excited Christians in the US are to watch a Christian movie from a well-acclaimed director in Hollywood. You forget Twitter is not a real place - people in Missouri, the deep South will definitely watch because it's nostalgic🤷🏽‍♂️ and they haven't watched a Christian movie on a big screen since no Christian movie has opened in >1500 theatres in years

pu7pl3:
Oh I forgot, you were in those meetings with Mel Gibson and them. No wonder you're here fighting tooth and nail cos you'll get a cheque for it.

LMAO Blockbuster kor Icepicker ni

Queen, Mel and Caviezel have had countless interviews about the movie and it's even on wikipedia and if you can't call a movie that made 600 million plus on a 30 million dollar budget a blockbuster in the early 2000s - maybe you don't know anything about movies

pu7pl3:
Before you start crying answer this; what does "Passion of Christ" mean?

There are thousands of stories in the Bible you can pick from and nobody will complain, if they wanted to do a remake then just come out and do it and not say it's a sequel.
Part 2 my foot.

Except the director and the studio never said it's a sequel, get your facts right Queen! Do you actually think an independent studio will drop the name 'Passion of the Christ' - a project that made them a profit of more than half a billion because of grifters on Twitter - if they're making a movie about Jesus Christ - why would they drop the name 'Passion' when it can even mean something else.
A director, writer and producer of a film who has been working on a script for 10 years to tell a different story of Jesus Christ would drop the name that'll give his movie instant recognition because he wants to please internet grifters and people who don't care about the story of Jesus Christ.
The people who actually care don't mind it at all🤷🏽‍♂️ unfortunately for you guys. They're mostly glad they'd see another blockbuster about their Saviour once again🤷🏽‍♂️

ShaqFu:
Well they have some story to tell, the one of Jesus' resurrection. How an angel came to remove the stone, those he met, how he met his disciples, how he proved to them he is Jesus etc, generally, it's going to be one big bore fest. Lol

Sorry the story of Jesus Christ will bore you, you've heard it a thousand times so I'm not surprised. But a great screenplay never bores no matter how many times you've heard it. I read the Lord of the rings books a thousand times before I ever got to watch the movie anr it never bores me whenever I watch it. If the screenplay is creative enough - it'd never bores anyone - that's why some movies are called classics

Kaycee7:
Back when I heard about this, I think it was titled The Resurrection of Christ. Maybe they're still workshopping the title

Most of Hollywood hates Mel Gibson so they'd would do anything to discredit the movie🤷🏽‍♂️ I'm not surprised they decided to leave out what the story could be about so people can jab on the idea of a 'sequel' even when the studio nor the director or writer said it was

pu7pl3:
I think I saw this post this morning and I wanted to comment but I was like nah, I won't watch it anyways cos what other story do you want to tell that you named it part 2. Fucking dumbos

I think what is actually the dumbest thing is believing the Story of Jesus Christ has an end.

Even though there's already a plot - the screenplay can be about any thing. You guys act like making adaptations from a finished book like Lord of the Rings is ok but from the Bible is dumb??🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

The only reason Mel Gibson never made a Resurrection sequel is because of the controversy surrounding his personal life and the difficulty in writing a screenplay for a vastly told story and bringing it visually has been a daunting task for him.

I can't believe you guys think telling a biblical story is dumb🤦🏽‍♂️ when the first movie ONLY covered just 12 hours before his crucifixion and his death.
Get a hold of yourselves.

oyaskii:
I am not supposed to even laugh at this but the thought of this has me in stitches 😂😩. Like seriously, how will a sequel to "The Passion of Christ" even work?. The replies to the tweet are cracking me up 😂☠️.

Hollywood is so down bad at the moment, sequels and reboot here and there....They might actually need AI faster than they think, at this rate to write out screenplays for them fgs 😩

I'm sorry too say but you're just being ignorant🤷🏽‍♂️ if you've watched the first movie and do a bit of research, you'd know Mel Gibson has been working on a script for a sequel for 10 years and already had an idea the time The Passion came out. The movie would be about the events before, during and after the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The writers of the movie has written Oscar winning movies and had never written a bad movie EVER!
People always hate on Mel Gibson but no one ever talks about how he has never made a bad movie yet.
I'm totally looking forward to this movie🙏. People always make fun of Christian movies and I'm not surprised🤷🏽‍♂️

abduleez1:
Nudity dey ni? Wetin dey occur eje?

Yes... I heard it’ll be a lot

abduleez1:
👀👀⚔️⚔️

I really hope he doesn’t write it

Yemike:
Claudia isn't in the picture, her character is too young for that. Season 1 has got vibes and the eccentric Mr Lioncourt made it lively. S1 isn't gay, it's more of a straight relationship.
I'll swap Amad for Mr Lioncourt.
The girl that play Claudia in s1 really nailed it, don't know why they change her sha. Small, petite, pitiful but deadly Claudia.

The actress just grew up😂. JA though, it was due to contractual obligations

Yemike:
Why is interview with the vampire season 2 giving only gay vibes? To worsen the matter, the come change Claudia act. The claudia act from season performed excellently and was even my favourite character. I decided to keep on watching but gays just too plenty. Just like HOTD I don't think this show is for me.

Claudia isn't gay and interview with the vampire has been gay right from s1

Yemike:
Your dislike for this show knows no bound
You cannot dictate what the orcs are, the life their living from LOTR. This happened way back before LOTR. It's expected to be more complex and revealing.
From the story orcs were once men, some of them elves produced as a result of dark magic. Some of the early orcs might be able to have families and maybe that's what Sauron wanted to take from them.
It's a movie bro, it's meant to be enjoyed and if you're not enjoying a particular movie delete it and select another from the million available movies and allow others to enjoy the movie you hate to love.

You're definitely right! I really really really dislike the show and I wish it wasn't a show I give two fcks about but the franchise is something I grew up on and the first movies I watched in a cinema when it was re-released and what made me love movies at that time - I read the books so many times I could recite a whole chapter at that time. It holds a lot of sentimental value to me and seeing fckin capitalists massacre the life out of Tolkien's work makes my heart boil - just take a look at the show-runners of a billion dollar show - they don't even have a decent working resume - they're not die hard fans of the show and their first words about it can be translated to 'we would make this show new'??, Wtf does that mean - there're so many details in LOTR lore that hasn't been explored at all - what else are they trying to add??
This Hollywood guys don't learn there lessons at all - stick to canon! If canon is broken - it will never work in the long run and it'll definitely have as many plotholes you can imagine

abduleez1:
Orcs are actually originally Elves. Its Morgoth who tortured I think about 13 of them who strayed too far from the rest of the tribe in middle earth.
He tortured them and mutilated them to the monstrous beings they are now.

And yep, Orcs actually do procreate just like Humans and Elves. That explains their huge numbers all through the ages.
It's just not talked about much to minimise the disgust.

Orcs made from mud and slime was originally Tolkien's plan before rewriting it with the Morgoth storyline. It's infused in the movie scene of Saruman making Orcs or Uruk-Hai from "mud and slime". More or less Peter Jackson's reference to Tolkien's original ideas.

I don't get you👀 is Orcs having feelings for their wives and children canon in Lord of the Rings - where in my statement did I say Orcs don't procreate? And what does procreating have to do with Tolkien's vision of Orcs being evil - Tolkien in an interview I don't totally remember actually said 'he created the Orcs as a definitive definition of evil with no moral compass whatsoever' he didn't make them as a gray character.
The writers broke canon - Orcs are evil not because of their willingness to protect their wives and children but because they're.
It just shows they're not being creative but are trying to add their 'modern spin' to a finished story when it isn't needed

pu7pl3:
Bride of Sauron ke?
Galadriel is pure good. They are following the books are they not?

Looks like you're not following the show at all. Right from season 1, they've been making Tolkien twitch and turn in his grave. Destroying canon has been their motive all along😪. You can imagine them trying to make Orcs relatable by making them have wives and telling us they're fighting to keep their wives and children alive😂😂😂 like Orcs are humans or elves with feeling - creatures that were made from goo and slime with one motive but to do the deeds of their maker. You can imagine what they'd do to the franchise next.
The only studio that hasn't shat on a franchise yet is HBO

Kaycee7:
Are we talking about the games or the TV show? Cos it's starting to sound like your bias against LoL is what leaked over to Arcane.

No, but the writers of the game made the show too so I can see where the mid-ness came from

OhBritannia:
I understand but any series can become a cult classic on its own separate from the original and it doesn't matter if fallout or reacher gets more views than it.
There are those that haven't seen lords of the rings or read the book but and this rings of power can become cult classic to them.
Some series and movies got big views but are not cult classics.
Cult classics means the series/movie becomes a culture amongst people, it doesn't have to be billions of people as you are saying it.

Let me give you an example, Spanish series like visaAvis don't have record breaking world views but it's a cult classic amongs the people that saw it.
Till today, we still remember the Spanish series and some of the Spanish actresses today especially the onces in money heist, were first known and recognize in visavia and Infact part of the major reasons why first season of money heist was successful was because of the fans of visAvis who loved Nairobi.
And when the female detective came on board, the series picked up again because of the fans of VisaAvis who loved her from visaAvis.

Another example till today i still have the original theme songs of VisAvis in my phone and i will keep that song forever in my phone and system till i grow very old and leave this earth because it keeps reminding me of the beautiful Spanish series called visaAvis or locked.

This is an example of a cult classic.

You're literally contradicting yourself😂.
The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Harry Potter are cult classics that got mainstream popularity. The main reasons something is called a cult classic is
1. It has a very loyal fanbase that'll go to lengths to watch, interact and discuss about that piece of entertainment over long periods of time eg. The Terrifier
2. It's unique!!! A cult classic has to be UNIQUE!! No matter how bad or good a piece of entertainment is - it has to have something different about it🤷🏽‍♂️. For example : The Room - it's one of the worst movies of all times but people still gather around almost every midnight too watch this movie because of how good it is being bad.
Rings of Power can't beat cult classic because it it's not unique in any way- it is just mid - there's nothing weird about it - nothing different about it after all, it's a reboot from something that's already a cult classic🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ - how does that make it a cult classic in anyway. You really think people in the future will gather all their friends in a room to watch Rings of Power 😂 - there's not even a scene in the movie that makes it stand out or to go viral😂. There's not even an actor or actress that'll make it a cult classic
Something like the Acolyte can be called a cult classic because of how divisive it is
