lol. Ok leme ask since u saw joker till now av u discussed abt the movie excitedly with someone aside here? Like u guys just thought abt the movie and just remember an amazing part and just want to re-live that moment? Aside here, or have u being among ppl and here them just talk abt it and u smile and feel excited again? I know how ppl tslked abt end game for weeks

that's why joker is a special m0vie. Few people appreciate it.

Skseries:
what's really surprising is how joker made 1billion, without China, even in Nigeria there is no buzz abt it like there usually is abt MCU movies, joker is not a kinda of movie most ppl will like to watch multiple times, I guess the movie was just destined to succeed.. cus i still don't see anythy special abt the movie, mayb it's just me though

bro. Joker is a special film. If u aint a film geek, you w0n't appreciate the film.

Skseries:
Like I have always said, problem with DC was Snyder, the moment he was fired DC was bound to be back in the game. I just can't wait for the Batman, Aquaman 2 and black Adam. Who wanna bet black Adam will make more money than Shazam simply because it doesn't have that children appeal that Shazam did

Who else can't wait to see how the show down between black Adam and avarter 2 will turn out next 2yrs.

children appeal wasn't what brought shazam down. Endgame and c0mpetiti0n did. Plus, the film was really average. N0thing special.

Blackspider:
Not just you, Joker was enough for me

to be fair am n0t l0oking forward to any cbm aside aquaman 2 and black adam. But i wish dc success tho.

TheKingIsHere:
Joker really struck a nerve in Disney as they announced that they will be releasing 4 MCU per year, in addition they will be releasing several MCU shows that will connect to the movies.

Doing this, is an indirect way to oversaturate the CBM market, leading to comic book fatigue.

Also, they have put an unnamed MCU movie in October 2022. First time Disney's marvel will put a movie in October.

brother, am even tired of comicbook m0vies n0w.

Guy stop adding wonder woman there

tell me why i shouldn't. C0me on, even critics misto0k the film for a marvel film. I dnt kn0w if it was deliberate. C0me on, we all knew how the m0vie would be b4 its release. The only thing is, WW actually makes u care for diana.

TheKingIsHere:
Seriously, did you just indirectly tag a write up from abs-cbn a blogger site?

There is no need for me to continue this argument with you.

I have provided the evidence needed.

u didn't answer the questi0n na. Were u frightened by the 7 sins? Dude, my little cousins found those things funny. Shazam was largely c0medy and a family friendly film [doesn't that ring mcu to u?]. In that an article was written, was either to amass cust0merz or market the film. Publicity. Disney have people writing articles, meaningless once for them, man. M0st recent, the 10milli0n subscriberz n0nsense.

TheKingIsHere:
Oga, you are the one arguing and clinging to straws.

Didn't Aquaman have elements of horror in it with the trench scene? There where several jump scare moments during the trench scenes. Can the same be said of any MCU movies?

People loved Aquaman because of that uniqueness that's why DC is planning a trench horror spin off.

I don't have time to be arguing with you biko.

aquaman is unique in that it was never d0ne b4, bt the style, the t0ne and the m0od screams mcu. C0me on, do u even kn0w why i keep saying these films are similar to the mcu films? Am n0t saying they c0pied c0ntents or anything. Am saying, while watching the films, u d0n't feel any stakes in them. But in joker, we were made to be on the edge of our seats. Mcu films d0n't have stakes in them, they are j0lly rides, c0lorful and n0thing bearz no c0nsequence i.e when the V. P was kidnapped in ir0n man 3. In aquaman, we never felt any0ne in danger, same with Jl, w0nder w0man, shazam. They were j0lly rides.

pu7pl3:
I agree with you except for wonder Woman...there is no MCU movie like that

becos it was abt a w0man? Bro, the villain was mcu like, very forgettable. Even the plot t0o; simplistic and predictable.

TheKingIsHere:
Bros, instead of dragging and making unnecessary arguments, why don't you just check google.

There have been several articles about the horror in Shazam. Several people complained about it on Twitter although the complaint was still positive.

Coming here to say that those DC films are just like MCU films is just laughable.

I won't be surprised if you say TDK and TDKR are similar to MCU movies. SMH

I still maintain my stance that those movies are nothing like MCU movies.

bloggerz would always write things for clicks. There wasn't anything scary abt the 7 sins. I asked u, were u frightened by them? U didn't answer the questi0n. U must be frightened by s0mething b4 u tag it h0rrific. Forget sentiment, jor. I am a dc guy, and to be h0nest all dc films prior to joker were very similar in style to mcu films. They were so forgettable, the plots simplistic, no twists that'd leave one asking questi0ns after having seen them. That's the essence of cinema, it has to leave in u s0me sense of wanting m0re, asking m0re while being satisfied. Those films didn't, but that doesn't mean they were bad.

how is TDK similar to mcu films? Am n0t the one arguing. U are. Mcu films are kn0wn for their over the top fun, 0ne liners, and simplistic plotline that's all t0o predictable. Just tell me, wasn't aquaman predictable, filled with 0ne liners, fun and f0rgettable? What was so nerve racking abt it aside its cgi?

TheKingIsHere:
So, you didn't know that people actually complained about the seven deadly sins in Shazam? You didn't know that they complained about how dark it was for sivana to throw his own brother out from the highest floor in the building?

Even Aquaman had that horror element of surprise when the trench showed up.

How many people complained about the horrors of war in captain America?

ip so facto, loki was horrific t0o, c0nsidering he killed thor with the destroyer, oops. Hela even blinded her brother, or how yellow jacket killed harmless animals in antman. Oga, u are just bringing up things to support ur argument. No one c0mplained abt the 7 deadly sins. Those things were even funny. And sivana didn't do worse c0mpared to the mandarin in ir0n man 3. Those dc films i pointd out, are no different fr0m mcu films. Evident fr0m how critics described them. They were pop c0rn flicks and forgettable. Joker is the only one that's different as at n0w. 'fun and entertaining' that's just it. N0thing nerve racking in them. Forget the dc sentiment. WB went the marvel way with w0nder w0man, jl, aquaman and shazam. They even said it with the hiring of geoff johns and the rest. "we want to make films that are fun for the audience" that was what they said repeatedly.

TheKingIsHere:
You are just saying what I have said in another form.

They should have made a lead while focusing on the team up.

In AoU, captain America was the lead actor and it was still a team up movie. Same with Batman for JL.

If you have a moderate number of people involved and used either ironman or cap as their center force, they would have had a main lead in endgame.

we are n0t saying the same thing. At all.

TheKingIsHere:
Justice league didn't do well because of the crappy storyline.

Captain America had 50minutes for age of ultron, ironman had 45minutes too. And that's a 2 hours film. Will you say age of ultron didn't do well? Captain America was the lead.

If you have too many people involved in a project, there won't be any lead. Everyone in endgame (over 40people) were fighting for screen time.

did the story focus on captain america in age of ultr0n? Lol. People are meant to fight for screen time in ensembles. U are trying to make people care for all the characters, u make them fight for screen time. U can't give 0ne character 70% screen time in an ensemble m0vie if u want people to care for the characterz. That was what JL's script did and that was why it failed cos people couldn't care for aquaman or flash or cyborg or even superman's rebirth if batman was centre of the whole thing. And, Captain america had less screen time in age of ultr0n c0mpared to ir0n man. But it wasn't abt ir0n man. Every0ne was central to the overarcing plot. In a single led film, the story is focused on the lead, we see everything thr0ugh the lead's eyes.

TheKingIsHere:
Which horrors in war did you see in captain America? I won't be surprised if you say there is horror in endgame.

which horror did u see in shazam? D0n't tell me you were frightened by those funny seven sins.

TheKingIsHere:
In JL, batman and Diana are leads, especially Batman.

Batman had most screen time(48minutes) for a 2 hrs film, so he is passed as main male lead while Diana (45minutes) is female lead.

However, Endgame didn't give enough screen time to either ironman or captain America for a 3hrs+ film. Google out their screen time and you will be disappointed.

The major thing that affected endgame is that they involved too many things, people and unnecessary plot holes

the m0re reas0n why JL did n0t do well. You can't make a story centred on a group and focus on 0ne character. Check other variati0ns of jl, it doesn't have a lead. What we have is the guy who calls the shot i.e like cap america does, but the story isn't centered on him. A lead is one who the st0ry centres on.

TheKingIsHere:
Lol, thanks bro.

I am seeing their fake 10million subscribers.

When it comes to Disney, never trust their initial financials.

lol, i thought i was the only one that n0ticed. Disney are same with U. S govt, they kn0w how to use the media.

TheKingIsHere:
Yes, they were very different.

Aquaman, Shazam had horror in them. Which marvel film had elements of horror?

In Shazam, silvana threw his own brother out of the freaking window from the highest floor in the building. That is very dark. I haven't seen any dark action from any MCU villains till date.

From the BOP trailer, we can see how Harley Quinn breaks a guys leg, and watching that scene alone gives the creep.

I won't even bother explaining WW

oh God, why make me defend marvel films? Ir0n man treated the sensitive issues of terrorism, thor had h0rror elements in btw its 1st two films. In ragnarok, we saw hulk make his seat fr0m skulls i think and grandmaster literally meltd a guy in fr0nt of us. In guardians of galaxy, we witnessed a little child's darkest m0ments. In antman, we saw a p0or guy get blasted and flushed down the toilet with a shrinking tech. We saw the h0rrors of war in captain america. The thing is, all these things were played for laughs or treated lightly just as the aquaman, justice league, shazam and w0nder w0man films. BOP isn't out yet, so that one may carry it's own style separate fr0m the otherz. There weren't anything dark with those dceu films, man. They were very much the same in that they focused on the fun than the dark part which the marvel films did.

Saaog:
it's a pity you are ignorant about football the same liverpool chelsea gave tough time if not for penalty shoot out chelseafc would have pummelled them.

eh? How chelsea take equalise for extra time again? Was it n0t through a penalty that wasn't a penalty? Which chelsea gave Liverpool tough time? Klopp obviously didn't take the cup serious which was evident fr0m the line up as he didn't start 0ne of his fr0nt 3 and used a weak midfield in that game. Talk m0re of the epl game at stamford bridge n0t the super cup. Liverpool had a field day at stamford only that firmin0 and the others weren't clinical with their shots. They even changed tactics to a defensive set up in 2nd half and stopped attacking so n0t to tire their players.

TheKingIsHere:
It is obvious Joker has touched a huge nerve in Disney that they don't know what to do now.

Honestly, I pray they win some major awards at the Oscars but this is what you get when you turn everything into a joke just they way Disney turned marvel (MCU) into a joke

to be h0nest, was aquaman, w0nder w0man, justice league, shazam any different fr0m the disney marvel films? So far, joker is the only different film in style and t0ne.

TheKingIsHere:
If everyone is supporting, who is the lead?

How can the current highest grossing movie not have a single lead? That's the MCU for you.

**I know some of you will not like this, but its the bitter truth**

the avengerz m0vies are an ensemble piece. Just like suicide squad. There is no lead cos it focuses on a group. The story doesn't lift up a particular character rather every0ne is a piece of the story. Lol, in as much as am n0t a marvel guy, ur argument does n0t stick. Yes, disney want an oscar, yes endgame isn't oscar worthy, but bringing said fact that disney are outlining a number of the cast for best supporting in an ensemble film isn't a bad m0ve. The only truth is, endgame isn't oscar w0rthy, n0t that disney are doing anything wr0ng with their m0ves to have endgame n0minated. The truth is, it w0n't win an imp0rtant oscar award category if politics isn't played.

TheGoodJoe:
Trent handled the ball deliberately and the officials lied about it.

oga go and cancel the match na.

TheGoodJoe:
You are still deviating.

Michael Oliver and the VAR man lied Trent Alexander did not commit a deliberate offence. What do you say about that. That is the point of the thread.

If you feel Bernardo Silva committed a foul or not is not in question. The question is, why did they both lie to something so blatant.

the questi0n still is, would trent have handled it if the ball hadn't bounced off of silva? Answer it nah.

TheGoodJoe:
The point is the match officials lied.

tor, go and sack them na. Mtchew. The game's over. Liverpool won. I d0n't remember u posting s0mething like this when VAR went against Liverpool at old trafford. The system aint perfect. It has never been.

TheGoodJoe:
What are you typing?

Did anyone say the ball did not hit Bernardo Silva? Even the interview in the article did not talk about it because the ball deflected off Bernardo Silva to his hand which does not count as handball, like the Rojo's case against Nigeria.

That was not why it was ruled out if you bothered to read the article. It was ruled out because they claimed Trent did not intend to use his hand, which they are lying.

my questi0n is, had silva's hand n0t deflected the ball, would it have gotten to Trent Alexander's hand?

hulk616:
thomas wayne from flashpoint universe/ timeline/reality killed alfred

terrible writing if u ask me.

hulk616:
flash books are in continuity but they contain some flashbacks stories. this year of villians events continuity is a big issue, because mera is pregnant in aquaman solo books but in justice league she is not. Alfred is dead in all batman books but in doomsday clock he is alive. Now nobody knows whether doomsday is out of continuity or in continuity.

wait, what killed pennyworth?

rexrodrygo2019:
You are sensitive cos your drew from some good examples let me add this quick

Many persons in this NL are kids or they just follow just their clubs

Take for instance when Ac Millan and Intermillan was the club I know during the time of Animal Gattuso and Millito to mention a few who born you to dey do like woman for that kind Derby you dey craze they even end most of those derbies with 8 v 10 men or even 9 v 9 men.

what I am trying to say here? Football is for boys with mentality of that of men what happens on pitch remains on the pitch, Yes you can protest at the referee and say many things about VAR

The first call: It hits Bernando Silva's arm first - No case if you ask me

Second: Arnold arm is where it is supposed to be - No case

Sterling lick your wound and move on

correct talk bro. Walahi fo0tball no dy physical again. Derby games bk then na im dy dictate league table. Seriously, i kn0w was young bk then but Liverpool no rough like before again. Those days, you would see Steven gerrard slide on the carpet grass and r0ot s0me0ne to the flo0r, carragher go use him body dy push players, mascherano na an0ther case. There was a time during the man u and Liverpool derby where Steven Gerrard came on and after 2 minutes was given a red card. Those were the days without VAR. And after those games, Gerrard, r0oney and all would still play for england. It was alex fergus0n that even wanted to separate them so as to maintain that rivalry mentality off pitch.

Timmy301:
No ooo, una for pick fight na ur Oga insult you for work, you wan insult am back...Where them Sergio Ramos dey, u wan pick fight

There's nothing wrong with what Gomez did, but I think Trent was Wrong to push him

mtcheww. Trent pushed him out of instinct n0t purposefully. The ball was already out of play and TAA was on a free fall, so instinctively he shoved Sterling to regain balance.

Larryslim:
Gomez pushed him first, rattled him on the pitch and still acted as the Victim.
He acted as though he and sterling had beef prior to that game, it was just humane that sterling stood up him in training.
And who is Gomez? He's not even in Top 10 CB in the premier League whereas sterling is England's best player right now, so who do they need most?
It's not a must win match for the three lions, if not they wouldn't have dared drop sterling.

bros na lie abeg. G0mez is naturally a c0ol, shy guy. He didn't push sterling. Alexander arn0ld was the one who man marked sterling before the ball went out of play and Trent instinctively shoved sterling due to adrenaline rush. G0mez came to support Trent on the other end and when sterling got up he t0ok the aggressi0n on Gomez. He told Gomez "d0n't f>ck with me" like sterling was s0me superior dude. G0mez aint sterling's mate in terms of skills but he was part of the reas0n why Liverp0ol's defence was so str0ng last seas0n. He's been down cos of the injury he had. And there's c0mpetiti0n in the Liverpool squad if n0t g0mez isn't that bad himself. So d0n't shame him. The dude's better than many of the CB's in the england squad.

Sumstar:
First Of All, Southgate and England are stupid.
Secondly, Sterling has every right to act as he did, didn't u see wat dat stupid gomez and liVARpool were doing
Sterling is the best. Bleep!!!!

this aint a man u fan, reeks of barca. Well, go l0ok up the epl table had Var n0t been in place, LiVARpool would still be topping the table. Go0gle it.

DonBenny77:
You decide because you heard what Gomez said to him on the pitch

and u heard what sterling said to start the c0nfr0ntati0n.
