coluka: Good old Bernie Sanders, He used to rail against millionaires and billionaires.
But ever since word got out that he himself is a millionaire, he now only rails against billionaires.
Bernie = Complete and total hypocrite!!  What are you talking about? Bernie Sanders message has always been about the one percent and mega corporations getting tax breaks. The one percent are billionaires. Furthermore, Bernie sanders is asking for people to pay their fare share in taxes. He doesnt care about the billionaires personally, he just wants a fair tax system that helps the poor and middle class All news stations agree that Bernie Sanders has been saying the same thing since day 1 for over 30 years. KINDLY GO AND SIT DOWN WITH YOUR FAKE NEWS |

garetz: Very evil people indeed, their true colours are coming out for all Americans to see. basilico: The left is just plainly evil. Instead of working to control corona they are hoping it affects the economy negatively. Pure plain evil. Is it the left's fault that Trump doesn't understand science and reduced both funds and resources for government health institutions? Are you okay? |

garetz: We have reached an interesting point in American politics when Democrats are pinning their hopes for winning a presidential election on an epidemic breaking out in their own country. What a pack of idiots!! Their prayers for a recession didn't work, now they are praying for an epidemic to break out and for the epidemic to cause a recession . These people are confirmed lunatics! Lies and fake news |

SalomonKane: Superman: Red Son.
Story is filled with many loopholes and I wonder why there always have to be a touch of feminism in it.
Seriously, if Lex Luther was smart enough to duplicate the green lantern power ring and know about Superman's vulnerability to Red Sun, I wonder why he didn't even know about Kryptonite.
Like I said, too many Loopholes. Never thought I'd actually watch a DC animation that I'll totally dislike Wonder Woman.
6/10. Where would Lex Luthor get Kriptonite from in 1953? Also, how would Lex Luthor know about kryptonite? The red sun is a naturally occurring phenomenon and so, spying on superman can get one that information. Also, wonderwoman has always been idealistic in her beliefs and this is not out of character. |

basilico: It was not Bush , it was the availability of mortages to people who did not have the ability to pay. Healthcare The older population is suppossed to be catered for by the younger working population. Heathcare needs a reform but govt should not aim at a total takeover of healthmatters.
With regards to abortion, why not abstain or use natural and manmade protections. As a christian O dont believe in abortion. Birth control is the key, the dems want a broken down immoral society where govt funds abortions, where gays can raise children, where religion is abhorred, where gender is not XY or XX chromosones but rather what you identify yourself. A man can also have periods, that is for a woman who identifies as a man. The dems also want to ban fracking, get rid of fossil fuels, get rid of meat because it encourages cows, open the borders, give medicare and voting rights to illegals . A whole lot of leftist bullshit.
Leftists want total control of lives, from where u school get treated.They want total govt control. The biggest drawback to them achieving total control is that the civilians are armed to the teeth with 300m guns and a trillion bullets .And many civilians are ex military men. Hence gun control is a key ambition by leftists in order for them to achieve total power.
Leftists are socialists which is a precusor to full blown communism. When a progressive leftist is asked where communism has succeeded, they say no country has ever tried full and true socialism/communism. Bloomberg mocked Sanders that he is the most well known socialist in America and owns three houses. So, the republicans that continuously voted for the deregulation of the financial industry that led to the lack of stringent laws and policies on mortgage lending are not to blame for the recession? Or you dont know that these things affect each other? You say that birth control is more important than abortion. I agree. However, your republican party and the christian right hate sex education. In fact, the states that lack sex education in schools and lead in teen pregnancies are republican strongholds. Furthermore, if you dont like abortion, then dont have one. Dont force your religion on others. |

Empiree: ��� BUHARI: A LONE FIGHTER.
Shema is multi millionaire oil mogul. His mother was recently kidnapped. The kidnappers demanded for 100 million naira as ransom.
After tough negotiations, 20 million naira was agreed upon as ransom. The kidnappers also gave condition that the ransom should me mint; new notes.
The millionaire approach CBN. He got new money to the tune of 20million. Serially arranged.
He delivered the money to the kidnappers. But before doing that he approached all neighbouring banks and requested them to report anyone who came to deposit money, in large sums, bearing the numbers associated with the money.
Behold! The first person to be arrested was a police inspector. Another lieutenant in the military was arrested.
Upon investigation, the arrested officers confessed that an assistant commissioner of police was also involved.
Pressed further, a top brass in the security was fingered. Shema threatened to go to press. But he was prevailed upon not to. His money was returned. Intact.
A colleague of mine narrated this story to me this morning. As Pathetic as it sounds, the ones given weapons to protect us are the ones oppressing us.
This is how terrible things have degenerated. These are things that Buhari can't stop. It has a lot to do with our value system, family role etc
God save Nigeria. Sen Abdulrahman Abubakar Nice story. My only grip is that the story is titled 'Buhari a lone fighter'- as if Buhari himself is a hero. Back to the story- it is a show of corruption. |

mekaprime: As regards the bolded, that's not the point. The comparison between both actors are as regards the flexibility with which they act.
Thanks for pointing out that Statham acts as a hardman with funny lines, that's called flexibility, irrespective of him playing the role of a hard man, he knows when to induce comic relief with his funny lines. while Adkins is all damn serious all the time.
Adkins can be the stunt man that plays Batman, am sure ok with that. But as for Bruce Wayne, am sorry sire, he can never be Bruce Wayne. Does Batman do funny lines? Christian Bale's batman hardly ever joked throughout the Dark knight trilogy. Batman never jokes in the cartoons. You must give a reason why Scot Adkins cant be Batman. As for Statham, being a hardman with funny lines doesn't mean flexibility. Even the rock does it. Even Baptista and John Cena do it. |
TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by JeromeBlack: 9:57pm On Feb 23, 2020 |
mekaprime: My guy forget that thing, asides martial arts movies, your guy would suck horribly in any other genre. Just imagine Adkins in a Comedy, Drama or Romance movie, even as a voice actor, he'd suck horribly. Just imagine these scenarios and tell yourself the gospel truth. And you can't really compare him to statham. Adkins is very rigid with his act, he carries out all his act with so much seriousness & tension. Statham on the other hand is always very flexible with his act. Can Statham do romance movies? He can only act as a hardman with funny lines. Batman movies are action movies with a lot of brooding from batman himself. That is Adkins forte |

kendrick93: Batman needs fresh ideas... Batman is a skilled martial fighter but I don't think any of the movies has done enough justice to that.... The closest we got was Ben affleck version which was why most fans insist he was the perfect batman realistically.... Nolan trilogy while great was terrible in fight choreography... Adkins would have been a very good candidate for this role Arrant nonsense. Ben Affleck is the perfect batman? Fat batman? Also, the fight with Bane in the dark knight rises was both physically and psychologically deep. The only thing I agree with you is that Scott Adkins could be a batman. He has an angry face worthy of apathy and darkness- that is the true essence of batman. That is why i loved Christian Bale as batman |

garetz: Instructions on how to successfully be a Democrat
•Hide from all truth
•Watch Fake news only
•Call anyone you disagree with a Racist or other offensive names
•Possess poor morals & values
•Wish death upon children
•Try to steal people's guns
•Try to steal other people's money and refuse to work hard for yours
•Wish to destroy the constitution
• Then Blame Russia for everything What nonsense are you on about? Your Republican party supports a lot of evil and stupidity. 1. It was a Republican president Bush that carried the economy into a recession. This was caused by deregulation of the financial industry. Republicans love anything that will give big companies and wall street more money at the expense of taxpayers. 2. The republican party supports the wasteful and heartless healthcare system that leaves millions of people either broke or uninsured. Every other developed country has free and nationalised healthcare. 3. The Republican party is against reproductive rights and abortion. They believe that a woman should not have the rights to decide what to do with her body. The Republicans say that they are pro-life but they are ready to cut funding to many parents feeding children o welfare. They only care that the child is born...they dobt care about the cost of raising the child. Child care is through the roof in America. |

Bratking: bro you're forgetting one thing - america has several accents.
there is the texan accent, the new york city accent, long island accent, california accent, southern belle accent, mid western accent, new england accent, etc.
the brits tend to speak new england accent very well because of the similarities between the r.p (received pronunciation aka standard british english) and the new england accent, particularly the boston variation. both accents are non rhotic in the sense that both have silent "r" unlike the standard american accent and other regional american accents.
so while a brit speaking american accent may convinced a new englander, a californian won't be.
so unless you're a linguist with a phd on american english regional accents, i respectfully call bullshit on the bolded.  Thanks for putting an end to that bullshite. |

Minemrys: really? Then why does katie mcgrath [actress fr0m merlin] find it difficult using an american accent or henry cavill in his early acting roles. C0me on, every nigerian can mimic an american accent but it w0n't be c0nvincing. Scottish and Irish actors whose accents are very strong find it hard to do American accents. Sean Connery is another example. But English actors do very good American accents. Americans can only do posh english accents. Many cant do Scottish or Irish or even inner london accents. |
TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by JeromeBlack: 9:14am On Feb 22, 2020 |
Minemrys: then obviously, u d0n't have an ear for accents. Then you'd be c0nvinced of chiwetel ejiofor's fake nigerian accent in half of a yellow sun. Or thandie newt0n's accent's in that film. Dont assign nonsense to me. I never said anything about Chiwetel Ejiofor or Thandie Newton. Scott Adkins has been doing American accents for many years and I believe that he has improved greatly. Just watch IP man 4. He did a southern American accent well. |
TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by JeromeBlack: 8:50am On Feb 22, 2020 |
Minemrys: bros, read what i wrote again. Adkins can't pull off a c0nvincing American accent. Take for instance christian bale, you'd be shocked to find out he isn't american. Brits find it hard maintaining an american accent unless method actors. Trust me, Adkins accent always shows. Just like Henry Cavill. Cavill's british accent always c0mes off when he's trying to act in a cool scene. The part that'll expose him is bruce wayne. Pulling off an accent is different fr0m being c0nvincing while speaking in it. In IP man 4, scott Adkins accent was very American |

Another comedy passing itself off as horror. 
The film started off very well by establishing an ominous feeling and initially kept me on edge, but midway through, it totally lost its way and went from scary and dreadful to shallow and hilarious.
They had a very good material and strong premise that could have blown anyone away if they had maintained the feeling they established in the beginning, but they had to through in some useless gags and follow overused horror tropes.
That ending was just ridiculous, this could have been a comedy masterpiece if they had stuck to the comedy aspect.  There is actually a sub-genre of horror called comedy-horror https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comedy_horror |

Joshthefirst: First, where's everyone from the good old days? Jack Nozzle(LB), amanfrommars, plaetton, deep sight, etc? How're you all doing? It's literally been years.
To the topic then: One common question from sceptics; if there is a God, why is there so much evil in this world. But what is good? And what is evil? We cannot define these terms without an objective transcendent moral standard. Thus recognition of evil serves to confirm you reasoning of the morality behind the events of the world around us.
Without God, there is no real good and evil, only evolutionary figments of the imagination, and whatever suits anyone. Therefore the question of evil in the world affirms the existence of a creator who has made moral beings. The bible says nothing about smoking weed. There is no scripture you can use to justify or criminalize it. This goes to show that morality exists outside God and the bible. God does not even make sense morally. God is a superpoweful alien that cannot understand human morality. We are supposedly like ants to God. Now imagine you see an ant in your food, you would kill it without and throw it away without losing any sleep. An ant's life is insignificant compared to yours. It is not as intelligent as a human being. Now imagine God looking at us humans as ants. We are insignificant to hos power and omnipotence. God can wipe us out without even blinking an eye. How can a God of so much power ever truly have empathy for humans? It is of no surprise that God smited humans like ants in the old testament. Drowned millions, bombed cities like Gomorrah and sent plagues to Egypt. An alien cannot have human empathy...human empathy is alien to it. |

Joshthefirst: I agree with your three things as topics making Nigeria backward, but disagree with your content. We don't practice good religion, we struggle with fear and survival, and we have the worst modern history as a people on earth. But there is hope. God is currently my only hope. Lol.....God is very good at failing his people. The bible says that Israelites were in slavery for 400 years. The same Jews suffered a holocaust. God is not hope. God will fail you, according to his record. No wonder Nigeria has been failing since the 90s |
