Dune: Prophecy is out.

IMAliyu2:
Anyone else watching Arcane season 2?

Yep! We talk about it over at the series thread

Ah yes! Where did I stop yesterday?

Is it just me or is there now a limit to how many pictures Nairaland allows you to upload in a day?

Calibrator:
Reflexes are primarily defensive in nature to evade attacks. She also move around at lightning speed when on the attack.

I know what I am talking about.

Lightning speed has to be an exaggeration, my guy. Otherwise Episode 6 would've ended differently.

The fact that she only uses her Shimmer abilities during fights is why I opted to use "heightened reflexes" to qualify it. Outside of fights, we don't really see her move much faster than the average person.

So let's say she has heightened fight speed

This was such a great scene. Jinx, as well as the audience, realizing what she meant to the people of the Zaun.

The lighting in the 3rd pic is everything

Isha never backing down from a fight or giving up and surrendering easily is such an understated trait of her character.

Cos how do you see Rictus and your first thought is to jump on his head 😂🤣

Calibrator:
One thing I don't understand is Exactly how fast is this Jinx character?



Madam be matching Barry Allen for speed at times

She just has heightened reflexes unless na VFX dey confuse your eye

samistry:

Not today. We're grieving 😥

The fanbase is in shambles.
First stage of grief: Denial

Make nobody talk to me today abeg. I no dey feel fine. Christian Linke, Alex Yee, Fortiche, Riot, everybody wey dey involved, thunder fire all of una papa 😭😭

pu7pl3:
Then after their feud what next?

IC or US Title

pu7pl3:
Both of them can heel it up together but I doubt it especially if Big - E shows up.
They shouldn't break up unless they both want to end up in catering.
Plus there is a more exciting break up in the works cos Blackheart Ciampa is back😈🔥

Blackheart Ciampa, been there done that. Heel Woods is fresh. I don't want them to heel it up together. I need Woods to deliver the mother of all beatdowns on Kofi to cement his heel status

Today...

Isha don dey learn bad things

SOZINN:
Dwayne Johnson, Chris Evans, Lucy Liu and J.K Simmons still ganged up here to cook dust. Star power my ass.

When it comes to popcorn flicks, na audience ratings be the koko

pu7pl3:
Everyone is expecting a split but I see Big E uniting them on their anniversary and then urging them to wake up and tear the Raw tag team division apart and win gold again.

Booooooooo!!! Give us Heel Woods. I need that. The streets need that

CoolUsername:
The last time I was saw in this thread. I was pathetic.....I was messed up.

I made a unsubstantiated post about a supposed Twitter meltdown by Ricochet and I failed miserably.

I let everybody down—I let everybody down....I let myself down because I wasn't the goofy I know I am.

I cant—I can't expect you to forgive me and give me another and I damn sure can't expect everyone in the back to forgive and give me another chance but all I can do is ask.


All I can do is ask.

Share a beer with me, brother 😏

pu7pl3:
See people wey dey serious feud 🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️

2010 Randy would've RKO'd him on the car. I miss when The Viper had smoke for everybody.

_{This is some wholesome content sha}

samistry:
The tweets were debunked as fake. Folks fell for it cause ricochet makes similar tweets.

Better ooo. Cos I dey read the thing, I come dey hear as him voice dey break and e come be like spit dey pour me from my screen. Too cringe

abduleez1:
This guy you wan dey gatekeep yansh and brezz now?? 😂😂

Now wey music artists many of dem wan dey enter Hollywood....you sure say you go fit keep dem off this discussions.

On a serious note, wonder why there's a rise in many artists now wanting to be movie stars too.
But what I find interesting is the fact that it's only with the ladies. The men ain't joining in.

Recently we got:

Jennifer Lopez
Lady Gaga
Selena Gomez
Janelle Monae
Ariana Grande
Dua Lipa
Haile and Chloe Bailey
Alana Haim
Billie Eilish


With only The Weeknd registering for male artists. 🤔

Jenny from the Block has actually been juggling acting and singing for years now.
Gaga isn't really a newcomer at this point.
And Selena started off as an actress on the Disney channel.

The others are valid though

abduleez1:
😎😎

If Wednesday S2 flops, the Gaga sequel curse conspiracy theory is a go.

I was randomly going through YT, and i bumped into this, and i clocked that, Scar totally cooked with "Be Prepared" 😩😩.


"It's clear from your vacant expressions
The lights are not all on upstairs
But we're talking kings and successions
Even you can't be caught unawares"

Like what the hell? Brother Scar was a visionary and a damn good poet fgs 😩


Them Hyenas better than me, I would have be at the front line after the first verse, to topple Mufasa.


Scar is such an Iconic Disney villain, the devilish aura was off the charts 😬

I love to see Chiwetel in the cast of a movie I'm watching but I knew even he could not top what Jeremy Irons did with Scar in the animated. Bro completely understood and delivered the assignment

NobleStag007:
What time should we be expecting it to drop

9am, officially.

High seas from 11am

Tomorrow...

oyaskii:
The Day of the Jackal (2024)


A gripping cat and mouse chase....or Jackal chase, if you will...


You might wonder why they went to such lengths to bring in an Oscar winner, known for being selective with his roles. The answer is clear within the first 10 minutes of the show...

Eddie Redmayne is a terrific actor; he becomes German, Spanish, French, he’ll convince you he's all of these and more.

The show feels like a blend of peak James Bond and Mission: Impossible. The only downside is that they didn’t release the whole series at once... I can’t wait for the remaining five episodes.

A solid, solid show.

8/10 so far

Thought I'd catch a break now that The Penguin has ended. But you're pushed me to jump on this

Phant0mStranger:
Kaycee7 this is highly unfair 😂😂😂

Why are they gatekeeping the best merch? 😭

pu7pl3:
Been sleeping on Superman and Lois for years now.

Man am I glad I decided to finally start it. Awesome take on the man of steel.

Started when it aired back in 2021. Couldn't keep up. The episodes I watched were really good though, and my guy who follows it to this day says its only gotten better.

Got these 3 on repeat since I finished Act I. But most especially, I Can't Hear It. Freya Ridings poured her soul into that song. Almost gives What Could Have Been? a run for its money.

They gave Woodkid a second chance and he actually cooked this time with To Ashes ans Blood

Saturday can't come soon enough

It's that time of the year again. This actually came out faster than season 2

oyaskii:
S3 seemed like the weakest, general plot progression wise imo, as it was more character driven and back story, but it was still an excellent season nonetheless.

It is like the fastest any show, has entered my personal all time faves of shows, they cleared my doubt right from S1. I mean, 11 Emmy wins from 2 seasons, is just GOAT level good, absolutely nut!, and i just know they are still gonna run it back at the next Emmy.


The thing i liked most about this season, it's like, each episode was like it's own movie, with it's own characters and unique story and my favorite was Episode 6 "Napkins", not just because, Jon Bernthal made his usual stellar cameo, but the overall writing of that episode was just fine work, down right philosophical to say the least....and my eyes lit up at the end, saw "Directed by Ayo Edebiri" 🎉

And more importantly, they have been giving me a new season every year, for the past 2 years...like the old days, i respect and appreciate this gesture alot.

Yeah... special.... special....show ✨

Take a shot every time Jon Bernthal's character says "You know".
