Why would theybout that clown in charge of a serious movie like Judge Dredd? Its like they want to purposely sabotage it.
Well, we will have to wait and see. Still would want to see Dredd kick ass with hand to hand combat. Using his Lawgiver is kinda like normal.

It is heartbroken when a man who loves his wife see the wife betrayed the love he has for her.

Husband caught his wife with another man in his house as he interrogate the man how long they have being having sex together and where.

What nonsense. The very reason why paternity fraud is rift nowadays. Women cheating and still claiming men cheat more, when statistics show women cheat more.

You can even imagine how she's even responding to the man. Kudos to the man for keeping his cool. I guess she knows this is the end of her marriage. If I am the man, I'll damn well sue her and claim damages, and even pray the court, for her family to refund everything spent, including money used in doing the wedding.

Very annoying. I hope she can see how she has embarrassed her parents, family members, and community.

Sly and assante..

Well it was worth it back then. Probably still entertaining today.
Yeah I had fun watching it again. Couldn't remember some scenes, so I decided to give it a rewatch. Didn't even remember Rob Schneider was in it. I honestly appreciate the humor now.

I still prefer the 2012 version with Karl Urban. Dude killed the role. He acting was coldblooded. Was really surprised the film didn't do well at the box office, even though it made a whole lot of sense. It's one movie I never get tired of rewatching.

I hear they're making a reboot with Taika Watiti taking the centre stage. Lol

one of the highlights of the show is no jedi ad it is grounded as much as possible in reality where you build your resistance a millimeter at a time
What made Rogue One so good, to me is the fact that Darth Vader stole the show. I mean, just that scene alone gave me goose bumps. grin

And that scene is forever itched in my memory, because it cost me something I cherished so much back then.

ANDOR S2......9/10

It is a gripping political thriller. Superb finale with top notch finesse. Light on the continuous space fights and action that has defined the Star Wars franchise. This one is a more grounded fare and makes me itch to rewatch Rogue One— which it is a spin off of and a prequel to. Rogue One was the first Star Wars movie I ever cared about and this TV show solidifies why it will always be dear to my heart.

This focuses on happenings in the galactic empire; in planets like Coruscant, Ferrix, Yaavin, Chandrilla, Ghorman.....a massive web of events in different parts of the galaxy that leads to open revolt against the tyranny of the Empire. From a spark in the planet of Ferrix where Cassian Andor hails from, the seeds of dissent and rebellion against 'Imperial' terror was born and spread slowly throughout the galaxy.

If I was told Star Wars would provide a tale so intricate and well thought out like this, so gripping, concise and grounded in realism and impeccable execution, I wouldn't believe. But ANDOR did just that.

It explores themes of oppression, dictatorship and blind bureaucracy from the likes of Dedra and Syril who follow orders from above unquestioned, without pause for the lives affected or destroyed with every single decision.

That scene with the Ghorman genocide was a master stroke of directorial ingenuity. The suspense, the tension in the atmosphere, the fear of the unknown, the eerie feeling of knowing how things were definitely going to go wrong. It was a treatise on how brutal oppression and suppression works.

Amidst all the chaos, oppression, political scheming, tension and revolt, Andor still manages to offer moments of hope, a better tomorrow for our protagonists. A case for hope finding a way to win despite the impossible odds against the monster machines of tyranny assembled by the formidable and scary Empire.

The whole episode about Dedra and ISB officials trying to capture Luthen played by the immaculate Stellan Skarsgard, was a beauty. That man just continues to prove why he's untouchable in a drama that requires suspense and dread. Dude is too darn good with his craft.

Top shelf TV show right here. And this continues to be the Best staple Star Wars has to offer on the TV side with its companion movie Rogue One where this was spun from.

I was kinda sad and angry I had come to the end of the TV show cos of how good it was....this is despite consuming 12 wholesome episodes of sci fi goodness. Not many shows make me feel this way. I wanted more.
This is easily one of the best sci-fi shows I've ever watched.
No lightsaber duels. cheesy

Men I live and love LightSaber duels. grin

Good. Very good. Still, I'm more concern how this reduces the high cost of cow and other food items, that have skyrocketed, using the Iran vs US/Israel war as an excuse.

Even the price of Ugwu, have also increased, and the war is sited as the cause. grin

Oh please. They should spare us the bullocks abeg. This reeks of falsehood. Don't the FG verify? Don't they check to know just who and what is bogus or genuine?

If they're accusing this Mr Adeyemi of forging those papers to operate that agency illegally, then I wonder just how many FG agency is forge and operates illegally. He can't be the only one, because I know many Nigerians like to copy whatever makes money, doesn't matter if it's genuine or not.

Christianity Etc › Re: Court Orders Prophet Tamarauebi Elisha Owan to Pay ₦200M For Destroying Shrine by joseph1832(m): 4:31am On Jul 05
Benjanni:
So a man of God in Delta State decided to walk into a shrine and destroy it to prove that the gods were false.
He probably thought nothing would happen.

Well… something happened. The matter landed in court.

According to reports, the Federal High Court sitting in Warri held that his actions violated the constitutional right of the shrine’s worshippers to freedom of religion.

The matter ended up in court.

The court held that the action was unconstitutional and violated the worshippers’ fundamental right to freedom of religion under Section 38 of the 1999 Constitution. The court also found it inconsistent with Section 10, which provides that no government shall adopt any religion as State religion.

As a result, the court ordered the pastor to:

✅ Rebuild the destroyed Egbesu shrine.
✅ Pay ₦100 million as general damages.
✅ Pay ₦100 million as exemplary damages.
✅ Pay ₦5 million as costs.
✅ Publish a public apology in two national newspapers.
✅ Stay at least 10 kilometres away from the worshippers.

Whether you are a Christian, Muslim, traditional worshipper or belong to any other religion, the Constitution protects your freedom to practise your religion.

You are free to preach your faith and try to convince others to join you, but you are not free to destroy another person’s place of worship because you disagree with their beliefs or because you want to prove your God is superior.

https://thenationonlineng.net/court-awards-n205m-to-egbesu-worshippers-over-demolished-shrine/
Nice. I've often said it, in most cases, there is absolutely no need to institute criminal charges against the worshippers. There actions constitute forcible entry, conduct likely to cause breach of peace, malicious damage. I like the advice given by the shrine's lawyer. Very apt.

This should serve as a warning to many of these christians, who believe it's their God given right, to misbehave, all in the name of they are christians.

Politics › Re: Before You Defend The Akara, Agbado And Kuli-kuli Comment, Read This by joseph1832(m): 2:18pm On Jun 29
Odewaleadesoye:
The debate about Senator Oluremi Tinubu's comments on akara, agbado and kuli-kuli has divided many Nigerians. Some have defended her statement, saying there is dignity in labour and that many successful people started from humble beginnings. On that point, they are right.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with selling akara, roasting corn, making kuli-kuli, or engaging in any honest business. Millions of Nigerians have raised families, trained children through school, and built successful lives through small businesses. Honest work deserves respect.


But that is not why many Nigerians are angry.

The real issue is that Nigerians are tired of being told to manage hardship while those in power continue to live comfortably.

When a government is performing well, citizens are discussing opportunities, innovation, jobs, infrastructure, healthcare and education. When people are struggling to survive, every statement about poverty naturally becomes controversial.

Yes, ₦50,000 may help some petty traders. It may help a woman already selling food or a market trader who only needs a little support to restock goods. That is true.

But we must also ask an honest question: what about the millions of Nigerians already drowning in debt, unable to feed their families, struggling with rent, transport costs, school fees and rising food prices?

If someone owes ₦150,000, has not eaten properly for days, and is struggling to survive, how far can ₦50,000 really go?

The problem is not the grant itself. The problem is presenting survival as economic progress.

Nigerians do not want handouts forever. Nigerians want an economy that works.

They want stable electricity so businesses can grow.

They want affordable food.

They want security so farmers can return to their farms.

They want jobs that pay decent wages.

They want access to credit with reasonable terms.

They want a country where young people can dream beyond daily survival.


Recent reports also show that political activities continue across the country while many citizens are battling economic hardship and insecurity. At the same time, schoolchildren abducted in Oyo State remain a source of concern for many Nigerians, with families still hoping for their safe return.

This is why many people reacted strongly to the akara conversation. It was never really about akara.

It was about frustration.

It was about a growing feeling that ordinary Nigerians are being asked to endure more sacrifices while receiving less hope in return.


Nobody is saying small businesses are bad.

Nobody is saying people should be ashamed of humble beginnings.


What Nigerians are saying is simple:

Stop weaponising poverty.

Stop making hardship look normal.

Stop treating survival as success.

Build an economy where people sell akara because they choose to, not because they have no other option.


A nation cannot continue to measure progress by how creatively its citizens cope with suffering.

The true measure of progress is how many people no longer have to struggle just to survive.


That is the conversation Nigeria should be having.

Nigerians deserve more than survival. They deserve a government that creates opportunities, protects lives, grows businesses, and restores hope. Until then, conversations about akara, agbado and kuli-kuli will continue to remind us of a much bigger problem.

Odewale Adesoye (A.K.A. Green Man)
Concerned Nigerian and Advocate for Economic Opportunity
How many nigerians can afford to live in a Nigeria that works like the West?

Hope you know just how much tax, many people abroad are paying. Even something as simple as Power, many Nigerians are still owing millions.

The Nigerians in debt have themselves to blame. Don't borrow what you can't pay. Never bite what you can't chew. Remi Tinubu's comment is encompassing. She addressed many issues, even giving scholarship, sponsoring people in education, ICT etc. Still, all her comments escaped many of those shouting, it is only the Akara and Corn they focused and started to make noise on social media.

The economy we want to build, is something we all have to build, not leave everything for Government and think they hsve to put guns to our heads before we obey simple rules.

Ask yourself why people who sell ugwu, suddenly increased the price, and they use the U.S and Iran war as excuse. This is classic Nigerian mindset. Complaining and spoiling everything by ourselves and blaming it on the government.
