Why not? If she can kill a god with love, surely getting the Germans to summit to love should've been a piece of cake, no?



Nah. That's your sentimentality talking, not your objectivity.

I don't get how I'm being sentimental. I started out with 80s action classics. So I know when violence is being glorified. Someone killed a family member, kill them and everyone affiliated with them. Someone slapped your sister, kill them all. Someone looked at your wife funny, kill them all. Someone killed your dog, kill them all.
The aim of Wonder Woman's violence was more for liberation than vengeance. Remember, she thought if she defeated Ares, then his soldiers would be free from his influence. And I think there was a scene where she expressed concern for the "minions" she had to battle. At the end, she discovered it wasn't a hypnotic influence, as much as it was a facet of man's personality. How's that sentimental?

KoiceReloaded:
I'm not a DC fan, so I don't really know much about their universe, but I know that Wonder Woman is supposed to be the righteous hand of justice, no?

However, here we have her relegating men to sob in their designated corners, defeating a god of war with "love (??)", and thoughtlessly killing male German soldiers, most of whom were kids and forced to enlist. WTH kind of message is that, huh?? I'ma tell you; Wonder Woman says "Hey, male physical violence is great, but women can be just as "badass" as men." BS feminism 101.

It's an origin story brah. She literally ran to carry the first baby she saw and also voiced a universal truth we all know, "Ice-cream is wonderful". Cold stone should be very proud
She was from a civilization where women didn't have to defer to men because, well, there were no men. She arrived in the middle of a war and fought for the side she felt was right. She smote down her enemies on the battlefield, it's not like she walked around killing random Germans. What was she supposed to do? Get them to submit with love?
Wonder Woman says, "I was once naive. I did not know violence was but one of the many demons that possesses man. I also did not know man was capable of courage and virtue. But now, I know better."

MJBOLT:

then the end of the MCU is near

You can expect only the female wolverine in movies soon. The rest are still gaining ground and building stories in the comics. It will be a while before they transition to the scree and that'll be in a reboot of the MCU. Also, the female wolverine, X-23, is her own character and not a gender bender. She's been around for a while now.
Captain Marvel wasn't changed to a female. There have been various incarnations of Capt Marvel with the Mar-Vell and Carol Danvers incarnations being the most popular.
Spiderman has had his mantle born by his daughter and significant other, Mary Jane Watson. So a female Spiderman is not exactly breaking news.

KoiceReloaded:
It's not the were so much as the script in general. I cringed because what they're trying to sell us about feminism is total BS. Feminism should not be about competing with men on the grounds of physical violence, because women are just not as strong. Feminism should be more subtle, and more intellectual. The film got it very wrong, and it was very embarrassing to watch.

You speak as if WB came up with an original WW story. Themyscirans have always been insanely strong warriors. Wonder Woman was actually more of a misandrist in her earlier incarnations. C'mon, it's not as if the movie had her train a battalion of female soldiers in World War 1.
The only part I found embarrassing to watch was when she defeated Ares with love. Now that's cringey. But I never at any point felt they were trying to sell us on some BS feminism.

KoiceReloaded:
The film is criminally overrated. There is nothing special about it. The whole feminist, girl power BS was embarrassing. I cringed the whole thing.

What exactly were you cringing at?

hakinze00:
Red Dead Redemption 2 will take 105gb to install on PS4. Red Dead Redemption 2 will support up to 32 players online
as well "select online content" that will be exclusive to PS4
for 30 days.

Damn! That's #71,000 worth of 9mobile data.

Damn! This tune catchy as f**k.

This thread has lost its glory...

Still wondering how the useless argument is worth it. 3 pages of nonsense argument. Enough of the insults.

Days where people post their personal ratings on movie and no one insulted them. But NO, some prefer forming ITK especially you, Koicereloaded. Beorn, you have also joined the bullying gang. Incase you haven't observed, people barely drop reviews to avoid being insulted. As for me, I care less about your bullshit opinion of my ratings.

Learn to converse in a mature way or get the fvck out of here. Arrant nonsense.
#Fact #BeSensible #StopTheInsults #LetPeopleBe

Anyone who's afraid of being insulted was probably going to post crap reviews. Nobody's being bullied or insulted here. But you can't just come in and lazily rate a movie because you didn't like it. Either you have points or you'll be chewed and spat out

The Dragon Prince
SPOILER ALERT





So I finished The Dragon Prince. A slow burner for an action animated show. There were a few nice set pieces here and there. But this season is mostly about the story.
I do wish they'd kept Viren ambiguous. He was more interesting when his motives weren't clear.
I foresee a love triangle between Rayla, Callum and Claudia. I hope the writers make it interesting. Well, as interesting as a love triangle in an animated series targeted at a younger audience can get.
Claudia's shaping up to be a very interesting & complex character. Will definitely love to watch her character develop.
Ezran's ability ensures a closer relationship with The Dragon than the others.
All in all, can't wait for season 2. There's a beautiful world out there with so much potential for the creators to make us fall in love with. And a lot of memorable fights to be choreographed and crafted.

Can we all acknowledge the awesomeness that is Drew McIntyre.
Dude is on another level

He really improved his stock.

pu7pl3:
Kaycee7 did you see how brie almost concussed liv morgan in that shitty match? Now liv is out with an injury...

It was as if they intentionally set out to prove me wrong. I no fit talk.

Modric won the award and yet people still find a way to make it about Ronaldo and Messi. Pathetic.
Congrats Luka. Wish you could have added the World Cup to your collection. Keep playing that beautiful style that we love and respect you for.

KoiceReloaded:
If you're into adult animations, also check out:
- Archer
- BoJack Horseman
- Animals
- Family Guy
- South Park
- The Simpsons
- American Dad
- The Boondocks

I wish The Boondocks also achieved the success of the others. 40 episodes feels like an appetizer. I wish it could have run as long as The Simpsons

TheKingIsHere:
Leave horror movies for us horror movie lovers.

I can watch horror movies at 12 am with the lights off. It makes me sleep well sef

What manner of man is this?

bizprof:
Popular Nollywood Star, IK Ogbonna took to instagram and shared lovely photos and video of his cute son going, his son is a striking resemblance of his father especially the eyes but the pikin, fine no be small. His mother is white.

The mom is Hispanic not white.

BurningBlade:
like seriously? What's there to be scared about? Lemme recommend you watch the exorcism of Emily rose. It's based on true event.

I'm looking for solution. This one wants to compound my problem. It's like you want to me to be terrified for a year.

Seriously, how do you horror fans deal with being alone in the dark? Ended up watching The Conjuring 2 at a friend's place and I've been sleeping in my cousins' room since then. It will probably be weeks before I can sleep alone in my room again. And the scariest part is that it was based on true events.

Galapagous:
bro do you know how long I waited for that movie after reading about it online. I did expect more twist,plot and adventure like in his JACK REACHER, minority report etc. to me American made (4/10)

This is as stupid as expecting Johnny Depp to act like Jack Sparrow in every movie. Next thing, you'll go and watch Hugh Jackman's upcoming political drama and come and say you were expecting him to act like Wolverine

Ishilove:
Yep. It isn't scriptural

And African traditional marriage is?

NoToPile:
Your bolded points are wrong.

Nothing wrong with a church wedding but saying if you don't do a church wedding your marriage is not recognised by God is wrong and not biblical.

Simple.

Like I stated in the beginning, lack of knowledge and understanding. I guess we'll let God be the judge of all this.

Evince:
my stance is that its not a must do in church

For Christians, it is. Nobody's asking a Muslim to do a Church wedding or a Hindu to do a Shinto ceremony. Christian marriage is mandatory for any Christian couple. Others can go do theirs where they please

Evince:
am sure but not entirely sure that u aint gonna talk with me again at length having made my stance known to u.
1. once one dont believe ppls god they disdain him intantly
2. i have already said it so the tendency that u would hv disdained me is reduced
3. thats what christians do and am sure u know it (they hate a lot)

Actually, that's what hypocrites do. A true Christian wouldn't alienate you. I mean, how do share God's love with a distant person. It doesn't make sense.
Your statistics adds up though as a lot of Christians are just hypocrites.

Evince:
like i said i was once a christian. i interfered because marriage talk is not a christian thing rather it is a thing for procreation which involve human beings whether as a christian or non-christian so where it is upheld is not suppose to be compulsorily seen in light of religious belief rather family

But the topic is about Christian marriage. For Christians. How it affects Christians.
Though the article itself is about reception which has little to nothing to do with the church.

Omoluabi9:
I will tell you one thing, and then you will reply with another, and I am not ready for a back-and-forth.

Go to the scriptures, you will see all of God's mind on betrothal, engagement and marriage.

Go and read your Bible, and stop pushing the doctrines of men as God's.

I'm very sure the Bible didn't say we should pay bride price. So I guess we can do away with that one

Evince:
well mine is trad in-house and court registration

Why are you doing two ceremonies? Shouldn't one be enough?

Omoluabi9:
You are DEAD WRONG!

Go and read your Bible.

Stop saying/infering what God didn't say.

What DID God say?

Evince:
i was but currently i dont believe in existence of god. but i dont tell ppl to disregard their belief. mine is straight and simple "live in peace with one another and assist ppl where u can and ask ppl when u need and hope to receive from them. i have no deity i worship because the entire stories are lies.

Am sure u will stop talking to me from now u know i dont share ur belief

Then why interfere in the affairs of an institution you don't believe in?
Why would you be sure I'll stop speaking to you because you don't share my belief?
