ErenXSatoru:Will make the list as fast as i can and edit this post in the A.M with the list hopefully. Please be patient 🙏 |
A Fish Called Wanda 🎣 (1988) 80's slapstick gold 🏅 This is one of the most prime example of a flick where the cast, script and direction are in such a perfectly good sync. It is a blend of British and American finest humour. A Fish Called Wanda is a heist movie like no other that affirms the notion that, anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. Written by John Cleese of the Monty Python fame, the movie is grounded in fun and laughter that is down to the witty script that plunges the characters into unsuspecting events that reeks of comic gag hall of fame. John Cleese also stars with a performance full of awkward but ridiculously funny moments as its full of humanity as well, but special praise goes to the 3 main supporting cast. Kevin Kline delivers a slapstick comedic gem that is flawless and outside of time, so so good, he duly got an Oscar for the role, Jamie Lee Curtis is the main woman, charming performance, her been a sex symbol enigma in the 80's means the movie is surprisingly, a little bit erotic lol 😅🍆🍳, and finally Micheal Palin of the Monty Python fame as well, plays an animal loving stutterer, and these traits provides the flick's most hilarious running gag. They don't make them like this anymore, A delightful, light, and ridiculously funny movie with a lot of heart. These elements aligned so so perfectly. 8/10.

12 Angry Men (1957). A black and white all-timer 🌟 Finally laid my hands on the criterion release of this cult classic and finally gave it a watch and what a treat it was. The plot is modest but brilliant in all ramifications. Shot in entirety in one location so gracefully that it left an indelible mark for other movies that towed this sub genre. It opens in a court house, where an 18 year old boy is on trial for the murder of his father, the judge places the outcome on the hands of 12 angry jurors, they are locked in a steamy jury room, where a single non guilty vote throws the whole case out of whack bringing morality, resentment, systemic racism, mercy, pride and prejudice to bare. In an era where the knowledge of vfx, cgi and proper cinematographic tools are minimal at best, they had to rely on actual old school filmmaking that was in vogue in that era, black and white narrative that involved some brilliant acting and an even more impressive sequence of monologue and dialogues. No wonder why the flick is a cult classic. One of the best movies ever made. I can't recommend enough. 9/10.

GloriousGbola:I was actually waiting on them 😅, good looking out sir 👍🙏 |
Here we go 🤲 🕷️🕸️

phr0nesis:It's good you got it at that quality. The vfx and animation were totally bonkers. Absolutely visually appealing and a greater size means more pixels which enhances the viewing experience. |
pu7pl3:He's ahead of the curve again. He naturalized as a polish and french citizen, and by French law, they cannot extradite thier citizens to other countries for trials no matter the crime. |
ShaqFu:👀👀😁

abduleez1:Octavia Spencer won based on "black tax" cuz her role was so basic. The best picture win was unreal fooling, the only deserving award would have been Sally Hawkins for best actress but oscar baby Frances McDormand was on queue that year. Sally Hawkins bathtub scene at the beginning with the "Elisa's Theme" score playing was my favorite scene for obvious reasons 👀👀😂

abduleez1:lol curating is helps, i use to do it before. I recently found a jotter i use to itemized all the shows and movies i needed to cop, and as soon as it hits 12am, na me and MTN Pulse night plan 😩😂. I go dey hold biro and Jotter for mid night like say na pool i wan stake 😂😂. I am still tolerating MIUI becuz is the most customizable Android skin i have used, but seems they made thier best set of devices 3 to 4 years ago. The Note 9 to 10 series were the OG. I have been considering moving over to the Pixel but the new Google Tensor chip does not move me, so i might have to settle for thr Pixel 5 or 5a. |
pu7pl3:If it was, then baba was ahead of the curve and wasn't moved by the award 👀. He basically just exiled him in 2018, as long as he remains in France, he is as free as a bird. |
Beorn:More haters than cult followers sha, lets see how far it gets her, the script is not new. |
FrankGiel:Reminds me when Kidd told him he was leading at the last Saturday party in thier season...The foool Believed ![]() |
These kind of fights is what i signed up of for sha,...strikes supposed flow like Palliatives tomorrow all things been equal 💁 |
Illebaye has played like 100 different strategies inside 2 weeks none seems to be working 🤦🏾♂️ |
Shey being 22 na badge of honour?? |
abduleez1:see premium list ...Glad you were able to recall the list, but now the real work begins, to find the time and will to see them all .BTW, Seems Evernote and MIUI doesn't agree 😭😭. I have never had a stable running of the app that i just end up uninstalling it and just sticking with the native notes app. It used to run smoothly on my prior devices, i need to actually leave MIUI soonest and go back to pure Android experience |
abduleez1:😂😂😂....I dey tell you say agendas dey always follow Oscar and the way dem they hand out win. The fact is, they don't follow a set rules, each year they just pander to the "agenda" that is loudest and call it a day. The 2016 best actor win for Leonardo DiCaprio was basically a pity award for previous years of neglect whilst overlooking Matt Damon for "The Martian" and Micheal Fassbender for "Steve Jobs". "Green Book" winning best picture over "Roma" is still a mystery, because the "race agenda" was in play, If EEAAO was done by an all black cast, i seriously doubt if it could have gotten best picture because Jordan Peele made a similar socially conscious movie in "Get out" and it was overlooked, and who could forget!, My fave none sense that Oscar has done, is given Roman Polanski best director in absentia for the "The Pianist", I mean, the man admitted to some serious crimes and fled the country before he could be indicted, he couldn't even enter the country let alone , attend the ceremony 😭😭. Oscar get some right but they have been on some performative BS for some time that i basically stopped taking them seriously.😌 |
abduleez1:@ bolded, are you talking about Shape of Water? The best picture win had a silly "back story agenda" to it lol. It was mesh in "Pan's Labyrinth" snob in 2006. I thought "Three billboards outside ebbing Missouri" deserved it that year. Funny enough Sally Hawkins performance was the best thing about the movie and she didn't scope best actress. Wow! Oppenheimer! That is front in queue for best picture but i am waiting on Oscar to do the silliest thing yet and give best picture to Barbie 😂😂 |
abduleez1:Yeah $400M in "crazy post covid lockdown" times in retrospect was decent. Part 2 should do decent numbers too, it's one of the most anticipated flicks out this year, other titles out around that time too might contribute if they are big as well. But barring a mad movie goers apathy, it should fare decently. lol A fantasy winning best picture might be a pipe dream, as you rightly said, it might be a contender, but the academy will rather give it to an artsy flick that panders to one of the numerous woke agendas. |
abduleez1:The HBO max simul theatrical same day release really did hurt the part 1 numbers in 2021, I don't think it even grossed up to $500m. I just hope WB don't make the same mistake again. |
majesticguy:Maann You know this. Bio-pics and huge titular characters usually brings out the best of method actors akin to the performance of Gary Oldman as Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour (2017) and Heath Ledger as "The Joker in TDK (2008). But method meniacs scare the hell out of me! lol, They take the role too seriously, and sometimes interfering with their real life and mental health. The cinematography was on another level, the music score, the symphony to be precise was rhythmic and euphonious. The story, the sequence with which it was told was perfect......The movie is what i call perfection, it's up there with Gravity & The Martian.Gbam! The cinematography was A1 and the score was heavenly! A perfect mix to horne home the entire narrative. Peep shots from the cinematography below 🌟🌟😩 and "The Landing" score is still one of my favorite lullabies till date 🍂

author=Ishilove post=124903208]The Flash-It isn't as bad as people make it out to be but all things considered, it wasn't a "good movie" either. The general consensus can't all be wrong on this one, and there is a reason it's the worst superhero flick commercially in recent history. The said entertainment literally stopped in like the first quarter, and from their it was a drag from dodgy CGI to an upheaval plot. CBM rides on good replay value and this was next to zero, saw it the first week it came out and i haven't had the slightest nudge to revisit it. Lesson: take people's movie criticisms with a pinch of salt until you watch those movies and form an opinion.Why i am all for this point, but more often than not when the general criticism of a movie is negative, chances are the movie is bad bad. |
majesticguy:As a "moon landing" enthusiast, this might be the best i have seen yet. Damien Chazelle, Ryan Gosling and Justin Hurwitz combo is always magic. so so top tier stuff.🌟 |
abduleez1:I am seeing chatters that it might be this night o 😄 |
Happy Birthday 💐. Barbie expected to gross 1 bn fine American green tonight is so poetic. Her 40's is starting with a bang i see 🚀🚀

Purvan:Wdym if it wasn't British? Those folks hardly miss. All the British show i have seen in a minute have been bangers 🌟. |
ShaqFu:lol...I think you mean "The Tournament" (2009), that's the one with similar plot to "Mean Guns" (1997). The is actually "Le tournoi " (2015), and Le Tournoi literally means "The Tournament" in French so i totally get the mix up . This particular one is French/Hungarian about chess and a little erotica.The man has been pleading for a link to it for about a week now, and i said i should help out. |
