Spiderverse went home awardless grin grin
well deserved snub. You should watch The Boy and the Heron, you'ld totally understand. The award is for best "animated" film and the award was made for the Boy and the Heron

Past Lives is so simple and relatable because it imitates life. Majority of us live very simple, mundane lives as portrayed in the movie
What if this is a past life as well, and we are already something else to each other in our next life? Who do you think we are then?
This touched me hardddd! You'ld love Perfect Days then

Movies I watched last week -
Damsel - 2/10 - Another boring cash grab for Netflix, they know people would watch!
The Man from U.N.C.L.E - 8/10 - "this movie is the perfect blend of espionage and entertainment. It's so good, it should come with a license to thrill!"
Sicario - 9/10 - 'You're asking me how a watch works. For now, just keep an eye on the time.'
Oppenheimer - 12/10 - "Now I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds."
Past Lives - 9/10 - "What if this is a past life as well, and we are already something else to each other in our next life?"
True Lies - 7/10 - this movie is nostalgia bait but watching it now, it just seems bland but still funny "You're fired!"
The Age of Adaline - 8/10 - "The only constant is change, but for me, it's the one thing I can't embrace."
The Favourite - 9/10 - this movie is a better movie than Poor THings in Yorgos Lanthimos filmography - "Sometimes to lose balance is to find peace."

One of you right here

Is there anything the man doesn't hate grin
What do you expect from the daily show😂 nitpicking what they want their audience to hear not what's actually true. The candidate has actually talked extensively about the dying state of education in North Carolina in the same speech they nit picked😂 you Democrats are so fucking dumb, you don't second guess the news before you believe it- I'm not even a Republican but you guys crazy structure is just flat out insane😂.
They try to water down the trans issue like it's not a big deal when it actually is and could be what smears what real freedom in democracy means - look innerwards and not what CNN and MSNBC wants you to hear. Good luck and be wise

Look at that! A right winger in the wild! Do you also belive in pizza gate grin grin

How many babies have you been told leftists ate today grin
That's the problem with leftists- you guys tie a certain "conspiracy theory" to every right winger that you come out as ignorant and stereotypical wildlings
You guys forget you started the conspiracy theory that blacks are subhumans and should pick cotton for life

The right wing rarely processes irony. That is why they run around with punisher logos, have trump the draft dodger playing fortunate son,

And this

https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2022/06/20/right-wing-the-boys-fans-grapple-with-homelander-being-a-villain-confusing-everyone/

The real problem the show will have is that 5 or 10.years from now people watching will not know the stories the show is telling because they did not live through it.
That goes for the baby killing left wingers too. If you want to make a political statement, don't f^cking generalise

Not realizing Homelander's a villain when he let a plane full of Americans, some of them children, crash is wild asf
Bro, this is the danger of just listening to a single story, why add "right wing" just to make conservatives sound stupid, that's bleeped up bro. Don't just read a headline and believe it without thinking twice
PoliticsKano Tricycle Rider Who Returned N15m, Gets Offers Worth N400m! by Illusioneffect(op): 1:09pm On Mar 05, 2024
Kano Tricycle Rider Honored with Over 250 Million Naira in Scholarships

Auwalu Salisu, a commercial tricycle rider in Kano, has garnered widespread recognition after returning a missing N15 million to its rightful owner. At the 2023 Annual Leadership Conference held today, Salisu was lauded by government officials, organizations, and individuals, receiving numerous accolades and gifts.

Among the honors bestowed upon Salisu are scholarships worth more than 250 million naira from various government and private sources. Additionally, he has been offered scholarships to prestigious institutions such as Harvard and Cambridge University. Salisu's remarkable act of integrity has also earned him housing and land properties in Northern Nigeria, totaling approximately 400 million naira in value.

During the ceremony, Salisu was awarded the title of "Most Outstanding Young Man of 2023" and received commendations from several governors, including those of Niger, Taraba, and Governor Peter Obi. He was also praised by prominent business figures and government ministers.

Salisu expressed gratitude for the recognition and support he has received, remarking that he was left speechless by the generosity shown towards him. His story serves as a testament to the power of honesty and integrity in society, inspiring others to uphold similar values in their own lives.

Could make a billion. Reason
1. No actual competition except Kungfu Panda
2. More rewatchable than Oppenheimer

Watched the Part One on cable yesterday. Even tho j wasn't feeling the TV speaker so much, there were some scenes that reminded me why this movie was a masterpiece and a visual feast that year. That's why it's the most anticipated movie of the year and it's box office ain't smiling. 😉
Recovering its filming budget already. I also downloaded the IMAX version of Dune 1 on tfpdl. Where can I get IMAX version of movies?

Dune Part Two - Best Cinematic Experience I've ever had
Maybe the reason it's is because this was my first time watching a movie in IMAX since there were never any real IMAX movies in Nigeria.
Dune is crazy from beginning to end with great suspense unlike the first.
Big-screen enterprises, particularly those adapted from books with a huge, fiercely loyal readership, often have a ponderousness built in to every image. In some, you can feel the enormous effort it takes as filmmakers try to turn reams of pages into moving images that have commensurate life, artistry and pop on the screen. Adaptations can be especially deadly when moviemakers are too precious with the source material; they’re torpedoed by fealty but Dune 2 does all this with great care and ease. I'ld have to rewatch it to even do unpack everything I saw because there's a lot to cover
9.5/10

🎥 Shogun S01 (2024) = 7/10 ✔️ ❤️

Can't believe this is what some clowns are comparing to Game Of Thrones. SMH
Stop the CAP, the pilot episode is way stronger than the GOT pilot

Dune Part Two is the highest rated movie in iMDB history with a score of 9.4.
Can't wait to watch this movie, the hype is unreal

Biggest problem was naming Aang Ong😂 with the most hilarious reason. Can't believe Shyamalan is still giving money to make movies after the dog fart of a movie. I recently rewatched it thinking maybe there's a slight payoff- biggest mistake of the year

You probably saw a different S7 or maybe you've forgotten about it because it was like the best penultimate season in Tv history, set up things beautifully for the final season. So many lose ends were tied and to crown it, The Night King riding a "blue eyed, Zombified" Viserion, and using it to break than "The Wall", and the season immediately ending, might the greatest cliff hanger ever.

The least rated episode of the season was 8.5/10 on IMDB. S7 was anything but trash!.
Also, if you want to convince someone to watch Game of Thrones, just show them that S7 ambush scene, it has worked for me every single time!

S7 was goated in my opinion, it had the best fight sequence of the entire show that I still go back to watch every year - the one where Daenerys ambushes the Lannister army with her dragons with the famous line "We can hold them off" muahh!! Chef's kiss!!
People forget it's the season where we get to see Arya killing all the Freys, little finger dying, Jon Snow and his people at the middle of a legion of dead people and still surviving. The reason most people don't just like it's Ed Sheeran cameo and the plot holes at the end

Simple question was the CGI a massive improvement or no grin grin grin

So if a new say Star wars movie is made by different people and I compare its CGI with the old ones I am somehow wrong to do so because the same people didn't make them grin grin grin.
grin grin grin grin bro, how can you compare the CGI of a 2010 version to a 2023 remake with a better budget, that's not a legit comparison in any way

Lol you just made my point going into it with too much expectations after seeing what the movie was is just setting yourself up for disappointment. It's just the truth! There were already so many things going against it and budget isn't always a solid yardstick we all saw the rings of power with all their massive budget. We all heard the stories of the original showrunners leaving, the changes they made to the characters, given the fact its a live action adaptation which have been shit for years only recently are we getting good ones and all that. These should give you pause to be like ok this might not be that great. But no you ran enter looking for the next GOT grin grin grin.

Yes I will compare it with the other live action adaptation because guess what they are the only live adaptations made so far. Yes, they set the bar so low and these guys did very well in terms of CGI and I acknowledge it. If pikin do well it's good to say ha you did well but you can do better which was the whole point of what I said. if you feel otherwise that's fine for me the CGI was a massive improvement!
You just proved my point, you're using the movie as a yard stick for this and you say massive improvement like it's the same people that made this

Was honestly shocked he didn't know who Toph was. She's literally my favorite character in the show.

Without the introduction of Toph and Azula in Season 2, I would have quit ATLA tbh...


@ bolded, what is this weird take I keep seeing here about AOT being boring. It's only on this thread I see posts like that tbh...

While I've seen some complaints of the amount of dialogue in the show... I don't see people complain of it being boring outside this thread.

AOT has served as a gateway into anime for millions around the world.
Many people who don't even watch anime and people who hate anime watch Attack on Titan.

So I don't understand why you guys claim it's boring just because there isn't a fight scene every episode
Nah, AOT is my best anime of all time; I was just talking of the Season 1 - boring in the sense that it's a slow burn just like Season 1 of Succession
