Lol, you say wetin?
Na Gothic horror you say no be horror.
You peeps should get this, horror genre is wide AF.

It doesn't mean because it's not gory, supernatural scary, the usual jump scares and all doesn't mean it's not scary. There's also psychological horror without these shït but messes with you mentally without needing the usual tropes.

Next we'll hear Wednesday isn't horror, just cause it's not scary? grin
Some projects are not meant to scare you one bit. Go and watch The Lightroom and come back later. It's horror but it's the psychological one. You might even get bored to sleep if you didn't know what you're expecting.
That's why I said in my opinion 😂 I don't find anything horrific in the movie

Please guys can you help review this album. It'll really mean a lot
Christianity Etc › The Best Gospel Album Of 2026 Has Already Been Released?! by Illusioneffect(op): 3:23am On Jan 25
The Great Ascent: Zion Luke Redefines Afrogospel
Zion Luke has officially arrived, and he’s bringing a new sound to the sanctuary. His debut project, The Great Ascent, is a masterclass in "Cinematic Afropop"—blending the rhythmic pulse of Lagos with orchestral majesty.
The Standout Tracks
* Golden Mercy: This is the heart of the album. Marrying virtuoso acoustic guitar with staccato cinematic violins, it’s a sophisticated "Highlife" anthem that feels like sunshine. It’s a rare track that works as well in the car as it does in a prayer room.
* The Overflow: A spiritual journey in four minutes. Starting as a high-energy celebration, it transitions into a raw, breathtaking worship moment. The switch from a heavy beat to intimate, stripped-back vocals proves Zion Luke is more than a singer—he’s a modern psalmist.
The Verdict
The Great Ascent is a bold, 10/10 debut. Zion Luke isn't just making music; he’s creating an atmosphere.

I'm rooting for Sinners and Coogler has to win best director.
Quite impossible. Best director is PTA already, not too sure of best picture

I don't like Netflix because they are anti-cinema.

But I would rather see them take over Warner Bros than Paramount.

The guy that runs Paramount, that Ellison boy.
He's inexperienced and he doesn't know the first thing about running a massive billion dollar entertainment company.

What has he achieved since he bought Paramount with his daddy's money?

And Paramount is a small fish o.

If he cannot do something good with small fish Paramount, what makes him think he can handle a mega fish like Warner Bros?
Do you actually know what that means for the entertainment for Netflix to own WB?! Just because you think the CEO is green 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

I won’t be surprised if the budget is very high and 70% is going into the cast so far.
Not true, 60% of the cast are taking pay cuts just so they can star in a Nolan movie bruhh. Nolan uses most his production budgets for sets, locations and real visual effects no cgi

she did well in Godzilla tho but she not that great and I don’t want to use the word overhyped on her but sometimes its feels like that
Her acting is not over hyped but she's definitely a good actor

Yeah..."The Electric State" is 14% on RT, she isn't a very good actress tbh 😭...apart from ST, na slop full her resume. Her agent isn't to blame here tbh, the talent isn't all that so make she just dey flex ST royalty cheques and her Iyàwó lifestyle dey go..
Are you sure you're actually talking about Milly Bobby Brown 😏, you can say her movies are ass but she's definitely a good actor. Stranger things is a great example of that 🤷🏾‍♂️

Raalsalghul:
For some reason, I'm not hyped for this movie.

Maybe because of my knowledge of history and all the images shown so far shows that this film is focused on entertainment than historical accuracy especially in the costuming.

This just gives another "This is Sparta-300" vibes.
Did you just compare a Nolan movie to Snyder slop fest 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ wtf is wrong with you

I understand the need for profitability, however I also wish some authenticity comes with it.

Surely there should be a way to achieve both.

Pluribus

I am calling it now, that some of those 12 people are spies from the hive mind.
The hive aren't foolish, they are good at deceit.
Somehow I'd love to be one of the 12 😂 I don't know what her deal is - she wants everyone to be as miserable as she is. Also the synopsis of the series does not do justice to itself at all

Pluribus

It's one of those shows that you want to see the end, you can't wait for the next episode. I love it.

A question though, how did it spread so fast? Did they spray something in the air or what? Cos it happened all at once in every place. What is due to the trails they saw on the night of the event of what?
Exactly bro! There are literally a lot of answers and questions to collect mahnn! 😭 Because the cause of it all is not quite clear 🫢

Jan 2026 looking peak. I've forgotten how winter seems to be the defacto season of peak anime and the biggest heavy hitters. Same way Hollywood makes summer the biggest season and China makes February or Chinese Lunar year their biggest box office season. 🤔🤔


Anyways I need some anime in my life.... Really missed Japanese fare. Since DAN DA DAN finish I no see any concurrent shït watch again. 😩😩
Tell me you've watched Kaiju no 8

I just watched the first 2 episodes of PlurIbus, omo it's worth the hype most definitely.

Cc. Oyaskii
Bro just thinking about the show's potential is kinda insane. The amount of character development we are about to get from the six people will be insane. I'm sure probably everyone could just die. Rhea Seehorn has already killed at least 20 million people in the space of 2 episodes 😂😂 insane!!

For this movie to make a billion, they have to recreate what his concerts felt like.

A significant part of the movie should show the iconic concerts and performances.


The super bowl halftime show which to this day remains one of the greatest super bowl halftime shows ever.

They need to recreate that from beginning to end.
If they could make the cinema like a concert and there are certain performances, it'd be insane

Basic Instinct (1992).....7/10

This follows multimillionaire Catherine Trammell after her boyfriend dies mysteriously in his home. Then comes detective Nicky "shooter" Hoss who seeks to get down to the root cause and is entangled in a battle of wits with two smart beautiful women with tragic pasts and degrees in psychology to boot.

The confusing storytelling style making you guess who the villainess was— who did what and what not? It was nice and smart play. Keeping you guessing from time to time despite showing you some easter eggs that truly reveals the culprit right in your face.

Ambiguous ending that can be interpreted by everyone anyhow they like. But what's pretty clear is that Sharon Stone was an otherworldly exciting Femme Fatale.

While Hoss knew who the true killer was, he remained with her. I guess they're more of the same especially with his continuous bouts of killing people yet getting away with it.

Sh@qqing like minks was a very appetizing proposition than probably facing the bleak personality disorder, I guess. grin Many would have done the same with that enticing sëdúctres$ to boot.

The erötiç!sm and nüdity was top tier and a glorious watch. Quite entertaining film. Keeps you glued right from the start till you finish. Superb eröt!c thriller with pristine rewatch value. A classic. That scene will forever remain GOATED.
Mahnnn, she's so fckn seductive likkkke, just looking at her talking is arousing
