u dey mind the guy? I don't just wanna repeat myself and sound like a broken record. A movie with batman, wonder woman, and superman will always make enuf money to breakeven no matter who makes it, the 1 billion margin defines it being successful. TDK movies with just batman made 1 billion if am not wrong, and someone is saying a DC movie with the 3big gun and a justice league movie making below 1 billion is a success. Hopefully the next couples of DC movies will shut ppl like this up and they will realize Zack style was actually the problem with DC.

Watchmen says hi.

Skseries:
lol but petty Jenkins herself said it completely her movie, written and directed

David Ayer also said suicide squad was his 100 percent till he denied it recently and started campaigning for the Ayer cut

Skseries:
forgettable u say? Have seen Aquaman a dozen time, WW1 at least twice a, and shazam lol not as much as Aquaman but more than WW1. Had to watch MOS one more time just to be sure am not hating on it for nothing, and I admit it's understandable that's if superman really existed in a real world but for Fsake it's a comic book movie WHY SO SERIOUS.

WW84 and BOP was just over hyped and rubbish.

Aquaman alone made 1billion WW1 I think close to 800m a movie having 3big guns of DC didn't make 1billion, and only reason it did that much was just bcus of those 3big guns being in it.

Anyways enuf of me arguing over Zack, we will see how the next couples of DC movies does then we will have this argument again.

Speak for yourself.

I only need to know the WB exec that asked the question. Clueless people

You know, when people blame Snyder for the state of the dceu, they forget that those who hired him didn't know what they have or what they were looking for. It's freaking obvious.

abduleez1:
How many redheads have you seen portrayed in comic book TV and movies.

Well Lois Lane and Gamorra was made redheads.

Also there's, Starfire and Mera In DC TV and movies.

Lois lane isn't red haired. Snyder refused Amy Adams dyeing her hair black.

Tarvel:
Birds of prey movie, Batgirl was in it

I've not watched it tho

There was a birds of prey movie?

pu7pl3:
Well this is facts but I prefer 433

Why?

Tarvel:
why?

Gordon gets recast or what now?

Maybe he married an African American

Was there a Batgirl film in 2002?

Tarvel:
why?

Gordon gets recast or what now?

Maybe he married an African American

Or she is adopted.

pu7pl3:
I thought you were a 433 kinda guy

Lol na klopp formation. It's too stressful. And atimes predictable. But 352 allows flexibility and for players to quickly switch position and create unpredictability. Wing backs can become wingers or midfielders without focusing so much on moving back to the defense cause the DMs has them covered and it allows for quick counter attacks. The defense is legit. 433 stretches the team up and exhaust average players quickly.

Kaycee7:
I felt a disturbance in the force so I came to check what was happening. And it was someone performing mental gymnastics all to bash Snyder. "Nolan doesn't intentionally make things complex". Maybe if you're talking the Dark Knight trilogy sha. A standard Nolan movie is engineered to confuse the average movie watcher. Abeg!

I just dey look the guy. He hasn't seen Inception, interstellar, memento or Tenet. Even tdk was confusing in some ways. Nolan gets so lost in philosophy.

pu7pl3:
You don't like the 442 formation

Lol... I prefer 352

VerifiedStalin:
Nonstory.

Film networking 101. Basically, it's a tight-knit network whereby connected/experienced/talented filmmakers influence the lesser filmmakers, thereby furthering the lesser filmmakers career.

WRONG!

Skseries:
his vision u say? He directed MOS, BVS, and justice league and the 3movies wasn't generally accepted or loved, yeah the movies made money, but were they really loved? Shazam barely made enuf to break even but us getting a part 2, why? It was loved by the general audience, I know I love it. The so called army of the dead was a 3hrs movie I had to fast forward almost half of the movie.

Bro I see other movies and of different genre and I don't complain, some good, some bad. Nolan movies doesn't take itself too serious his movies are just complex and if u are a deep thinkers u will appreciate his movies, so it's not like Nolan intentionally make things complex, Nolan basically just does movies with complex premise. TENET was just a time travel concept ppl weren't really used to, was the movie nice yes, but was it understandable no.

Zack on the other hand takes a simple concept and over complicate it. Have been following the flash series and I will say any day any time I will take grant's running cgi over that of Zack, even though the show is rubbish lately.

See as you are countering and same time pressing and counter pressing yourself. If it was a football game, I would call your argument tactics a 442. You will take running fx for the theatrical experience? Really? It's way generic na. There's this thing in storytelling called show don't tell. And it's been explained in jl that when flash taps into the speed force, he bends physics, how do you show that if you hope to just having a blurred image on a constant loop?
The things you accuse Snyder of, you yourself have pointed Nolan of being guilty of. Am not a Snyder fan but every director has his vision. And how do you say his films are generally hated when none of his films have ever bombed? And Shazam that is generally loved didn't gross as much?
The reason we are here is because of WB not knowing their focus. They wanted avengers level money. Go read Chris terrio interview. They knew BvS was a Herculean task from the get go. WB literally handed them the story and asked terrio to do alot with a script that already had much going for it. The whole mess of the dceu is on WB. Zack was never hired to initiate a dceu from the get go. He was in the middle of MOS and asked to make a cinematic universe. There was no pre plan or anything. WB never intended a straight up BvS, it was a Superman trilogy but it didn't do avengers money and they had to force in the big 3. If I am to judge Snyder, I wouldn't use the dceu, it was an afterthought.

VerifiedStalin:
I've seen a lot in my life, read a fvckton too, but never thought I'd live to see the day a moron_ would compare a mid-level filmmaker to legendary filmmakers like Nolan & Tarantino... alas, I have finally seen everything.

I have a question. Do you know pu7pl3 in real life?
And so you know, Nolan single handedly recommended Snyder to WB while on TDKR. And same legendary directors have spoken well of the man.

abduleez1:
More Flash set photos.....

The second pic what is it supposed to be?

100naira:
there is cubana chief priest, the one that makes noise online while Obi cubana is his boss, the money behind him as purple said

Mhen I just learnt something new today.

pu7pl3:
Yesterday was the first time I've heard if him tbh...they said he is the money behind Cubana Chief priest

Cubana chief priest? Dude are you sure you are not the one coming up with these names...

pu7pl3:
bruh enough suya....the amount of money those guys were spraying sha

The very irony of life. Death is now being celebrated. A mockery of the dead. What's the point of living to impress the world when at the end, they will turn up at your burial just to celebrate and dine.

nani667:
⚡⚡⚡

What's with the purple? Red looks better on him.

pu7pl3:
This is when you know that there is money in the country...also knew about him today too

Who is he please? Is he a famous person? Just hearing the name ohh

Isupaefugbemi00:
Nah lie, nor be she get the money, she just intentionally wants you to see it, so you can respect her more

What's the money doing in her account then?

typicalgamer:
Speak for only your state please.

There’s more than ten in Warri alone not to talk of the entire delta state + extra 3 in shoprite

Alright now.

Afobear:
Wtf is this ? You this dumb ? Equating football shacks as Cinema ? Well , you are a dcshit and I'm impressed

Am sorry, I didn't recall having a conversation with you. I have been cleared by the one who I was talking to. If you have a problem in your personal life, please handle it in private, don't come and transfer aggression on anyone here.

Nickshrapnel:
All states in the south east have more than 2 cinemas each. There are also cinemas in Markurdi and Jos. In fact, anywhere students are, you’d be sure to find a cinema around there. This data down below is outdated, because I know more than 6 cinemas in SE

Are you sure there's a cinema in Makurdi? I know Jos could have one but never heard benue has. There's none in Kogi, nassarawa, I haven't been to the east so I don't know the exact count in each state. But I can beat my chest to say the cinema houses in Nigeria aren't up to 50. Between I mean cinema not viewing centre ohh. Cause some viewing centres act as film house when the football season is over or on break. As in where you can watch new releases, international film release and also local film release.

abduleez1:
Lol.

I think the cinemas go pass 40. Maybe close to hundred.

No reason that one. How many cinema dey Lagos alone? In the south east I am pretty sure it's just 2 states that has cinema. There's none in the middle belt aside Abuja.

Skseries:
like how james wan made Aquaman into Jason Momoa right? Let's see how they approach it

The recent Aquaman comics has Arthur curry behaving like Jason Momoa played him. In looks, he takes on the appearance of the old Aquaman. So, he wasn't playing Jason Momoa.

abduleez1:
You people sef funny oo. How the fvvk you think I'm referring in dollars still dey shock me. Omo x10000000

Even China and Japan with Economic powerhouses never do aam, talkless of Naija.

Lol...baba the matter sef tire me na. I been think say na person hack your phone type am before I reason say na naira you dey talk.
Our films for dey gross well in naira currency oh but aba and alaba boys no go let am. Those things no dey let us promote films the way Hollywood dey advertise their films. Cause with the way some of our films are written and acted now, people would really love to watch them. Aside that, the cinema culture in Naija is poor. Only Abuja, pH, Lagos and I think 3 other states have cinemas. If you count, I don't think we have 40 cinemas in Naija, if not we get people wey go want throwaway money from time to time.

abduleez1:
Lol.


True. I await the year Naija movie will gross #1bn.

If in naira, they do lol. 1billion naira is 10 million dollars bro. But them no dey talk am out like Hollywood.

abduleez1:
Na wa oo. Which Kain segregation be dat wey Nollywood go come dey overly cheaper. Omo dem dey mine Una seriously for there oo. Kilode. Blockbusters of Nollywood and Hollywood na mostly same price here. So make person go Cinema with him babe now, dey out of the question.

You fit check Silverbird cinemas or maybe Ozone if e dey your place.

The babe go pay for herself na. Pu7pl3 no dey date broke babes na, abi I lie? Just dat these days him want carry eye dey look babe wey I d0n dey eye, lollz...
On a serious note, it makes sense for Hollywood movies to be cheaper than Naija films. It's to encourage people to watch their own.

abduleez1:
Let's wait and see what the upcoming HBOMax shows bring. Starting with Peacemaker!

CW still has a decent show and good VFX — Stargirl. ooh forgot, Superman and Lois.
Doom Patrol and Swamp Thing from DC universe has shown they can bring quality, visually and plotwise.

Titans keeps delivering very good costumes.

Don't compare the vfx in those CW shows with cinema or heck say it's good, they are manageable. Shows like falcon, Wanda vision and Loki is what you should be looking to compare with. CW is just crap
