I don't know Bowie (but i must have heard his music), concerning the queen band, even a 75 granny that reviewed the movie on imdb didn't know about the band, but knew some of their songs.
I have actually heard We will, we will rock you early in life, but never knew who sang it
I have been seeing headlines about Rami Malek's performance in Bo Rap, but i didn't bother to put a face to the name, especially when i saw the movie's poster with a man with moustache, not knowing Malek is the guy in Mr Robot, papillon, need for speed.
What a performance by him.
I have never heard of the Queen band before, as seen in the movie, i guess their fans really loved their songs. And Lady Gaga practically mimic Freddie Mercury's stage act at the grammys when she performed shallow.
And the movie had one of the best quotes and inspiring words i have ever read in my life, it happened when Paul threatened to leak Fred's photos and Fred was also at the lowest ebb of his life, the quote goes thus;
"You know when you know you’ve gone rotten, really rotten? Fruit flies. Dirty little fruit flies, coming to feast on what’s left. Well there isn’t much left for you to feast on anymore. So fly off. Do what you like with your photographs and your stories. But promise me one thing, is that I never see your face again."
mekaprime: You probably saw the movie recently for the first time & that must have been after reading the spoilers from here or elsewhere. even if you previously had the knowledge of how time travel & time paradox works, there is no way you'll tell me you watched that movie once & understood 100% of what happened there.....If you saw the movie btw 2014 & 15 when the movie came out & after 2hours or so of watching the movie you knew SPOILER ALERT, john,Jane, the baby, fizzle bomber were the same person, omo you must be a genus then.
Actually one will discover this as you get towards the end of the movie, but you will wonder how come? And the how come is the time travel and the mistake of John recurring even as he kept going back in time to correct it.
donstan18: Your religious belief has got nothing to do with your financial strength.
There are rich people who are over religious and ready to gift millions in the church, and there are very poor people who are not religious.
Make una dey get sense, abeg!!!!!!
The gifts are just for people to see them as good people (and they give little out of the plenty they have, which will look much to the poor congregation), because they know the congregation of the church is large, and it comprises people who are seeking miracle out of nothing .. Even if they tell the church not to announce their name, believe me people know them
troubleseller: Isn't It Romantic? - 6/10 Very outrageous plot but had a lot of funny lines delivered quite well by Rebel Wilson. Aside that the film was ok.
The Lobster - 7.5/10 Finally completed the trifecta of English films from Yorgos Lanthimos. A film about relationships and what we sacrifice for them. I would say I prefer this one to The Killing of a Sacred Deer. This one was funnier, more witty and had a lot to examine. Good cast also.
The Lobster was interesting.
The killing of a sacred Deer is his latest one, and it was so boring ...
oyaskii: Captain Marvel 6/10 Mixed feelings this one.
Very Few "Memorable" action scene", Dialogue was moderate, the comedy was dialed down a notch. Like with other origin movies, could go both ways (Hit or miss), This felt like Rogue one (Star wars franchise) which was totally uncalled for and had little or no effect on the franchise's grand plot. Don't want to give spoilers away but you can see Endgame without seeing this and i think you would be fine. This Phase of MCU has gone too far for an origin story, i feel captain marvel should have just appeared on Endgame with a little back story, then have her own movie with the plot unfolding after Endgame just like Spiderman's introduction in civil war and the events after continued in spiderman homecoming. All in all, see the movie anyway tho, it may or may not give you satisfaction, but it can at least wet your appetite a "little" for endgame with little details like why Nick fury wears an eye patch! and of course the post credit scene.
Please let's stop our Know-it-all ish, i have not seen Cap. Marvel, but you saying they should just insert her in the grand scheme of things without people knowing her or what she can do is not right.
Its Endgame, probably the climax of the avengers series.
The introduce T'Challa in Civil War before having his own stand alone, but that was just to further the sokovia story, and he wasn't really there to save all as we are being told Denvers will save all in Endgame.
blingxx: WTF Scott adkins is a good martial artiste and all those stunts are real, he was deadpools stunt double in xmen origin the real problem is that the guy can't act
You are right, the guy can't act at all.
He produced Accident man but most of his talks in the movie was his voice over.
Though he is a martial artiste some of his jump kicks are fake.
You can't tell me Vam Damme's jump kicks are real too... especially that ad he did with volvo by splitting the vehicles was real?
Bryan12: Logan lucky is another one I never get tired of watching.was so obsessed with the movie that I downloaded John Denver's "country roads".lol.
And it seems you have a thing for Ben Affleck. What's up?
I downloaded the song after watching the movie too, guess Mekaprime forget to add Logan Lucky. If it were me too i can't start naming the best heist movies i have seen before because i will forget many.
I am fan of Ben Affleck, and also his friend Matt Damon. Correct actors.
Jasonteague: The strongest avenger is Thor. Hulk too is strong but he his just all about brute strength. Hulk smash. The guy has no skill, techniques, moves. unlike Thor who is a warrior, a demi god, Asgard's champion etc. The producer just want you guys to enjoy the movie and all that is why you would see Hulk stand toe to toe against Thor. in reality hulk does/would not stand a chance against Thor. It is just like you comparing superman with the level of his powers against someone like the Hulk, captain marvel, Diana prince, captain america, green lantern etc. They would not last a minute with him.
I ain't concerned about this argument, but which reality are you talking about? A comic writer reality or a movie director reality?
Funny.
But y'all should know that they can give any character new abilities Who knew about Thor's lightning in Ragnarok?
They can make a Hulk movie tomorrow and enhance his ability, don't know why y'all are still stuck in one superhero defeating another, well guess it's just for argument sake.
What a huge disappointment, for a movie with such great ensemble of cast & awesome locations. The plot was just there, Character development was zero, some of the dialogues were awful & uncalled for, the plot holes were massive, the action scenes were very few, the thrills were no were to be found, the heist it self was more like a walk in the park(should've been more challenging considering these guys were ex marines).
The movie was definitely one of those movies were the trailer actually looked better than the main movie. Though it had one strong theme, greed , which is why i gave it a 5, it should've been worst though.
What?
I was eager to download this movie after seeing the ensemble cast of Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, Pedro Pascal and co
Like she said at the Grammy, i have always think of her as a weird person, especially with her crazy dressing always grabbing the headlines, and i must confess that i have not listen to her song before.
But after watching A Star Is Born, shallow has been on repeat on my playlist.
I wanted to like this movie, i mean i actually loved the first 30 minutes on how adoption works in the developed world. But then they started this hogwash and over the top palaver, and i just lost interest.
ThothHermes: Dopamine -- A neurotransmitter in the brain that controls pleasure. It is the culprit in addictions --Nicotine, weed, sex, gambling etc.
Virtual Sports betting: You know you will lose yet you still go back to it because you are addicted to the high you obtain when you play. You only think you are playing for money. What you are actually chasing is the high and once you realize this, it becomes easy to stop. Any pharmacology textbook will tell you that dopamine regulates anticipatory behavior. If you think back, you will realize that you experience a high when you are waiting for the result i.e when the virtual match is being played or when the horses/dogs are running. That is what you are paying for in reality and not the opportunity to win since you can never win the house. It's rigged as you know.
The solution is to use dopamine to fight dopamine addiction. The next time you have money and are tempted to play, think strongly about how will feel when you lose. Try to recreate that feeling of despair after you have lost and the desire to avoid that feeling will prevent you from playing. That feeling is the low that comes after the high. Feel it before you play and you will not have the need to play.
Note that the machines are rigged and you can never beat the house. The house always wins
Good luck.

Never knew about this, but i think it helped me got out of this virtual of a thing.
During the climax of me stopping it, i think about what i could have used my money to buy instead of losing it to virtual.
I will go there buy snacks and minerals, enjoy it while people playing and losing virtual will look at me like a king. I will think about why not use your N1000 to subscribe instead of losing it to virtual?
It wasn't easy tho, like you said one actually gets high hoping your dog win and also the little additional money one might win, which is actually nothing.
Yommy247: I think you are the senseless one here. She wrote what she wrote and ended it with "My Observation" so i see no reason why you shouldn't use your sense while quoting her
You are a fool to regard such fake news as observation of an idiot.
worworbabe: @ishilove nothing in the op suggests her husband killed her. This is more likely a political killing. Maybe they were looking for her husband but found her instead. Auxiliary is a thug under Seyi Makinde. This kind of killing is not unexpected since PDP have been re elected.
pdp were elected today, but have they started their administration?
Apc are the ones causing the trouble because they lost.
We will continue to have peace in Oyo state, Ajimobi doesn't own our peace.
onatisi: sometimes some of these women need not to be pitied , i still cant understand how some women will see a known notorious criminal and yet decide to marry or date such a person all because the person is popular or famous . as we are talking presently , some woman are still presently dating well known dangerous criminals.
You need to read about how Mexican drug lord 'El Chapo' is fücking women politicians, actresses among others.
One actresses even went to interview him in prison and she allowed him to fück her.
Nanatrendy: It maybe possible in a private institution where the doctor owns the hospital and pay nurses their salaries which can be compared to CEOs and managers harassing their female staff in other sectors but in government hospitals where the government employs both doctors and nurses, no doctor can harass a nurse because there is no pressure to cooperate. In government institutions, nurses answer to the nurse manager the doctor has no power over a nurse any relationship between the two is with consent. There are womanisers in every profession. I work closely with a gynaecologist and most of the conditions he examines will not appeal to any man in his right senses, ladies with foul smelling discharges, bleeding per vagina, cervical cancers, breast lumps and cancers and many other terrible conditions. There is nothing attractive about a sick person to be honest.
These irritations and sickness you mentioned might be what makes some doctors hard. The world is full of weird shīts
Oyo has a weak financial base. The Govt cannot pay N19k minimum wage, let alone the new one. Any Govt without FG support will suffer in Oyo State. Oyo cannot afford to be in opposition. The people will suffer.
Yes people will suffer o, because people really enjoyed under Ajimobi
AbiodunFolarin: Be shouting story line, wn the whole thing start now, u will all be the first to turn against seyi, DT he is owing salary....... Didn't obj do it during his time once u no dy PDP?
The truth is DT we CNT afford to be in the opposition considering the dwindling finances and our low IGR.......once we are in opposition,some benefit will definitely not be benefitted,DTS how politics is in Nigeria, u believe it or not.... Its the truth.
And for A Yoruba presidency come 2023, Southwest must be able to produce a common front , just like Southeast are currently..... Because Hausa vice president is constant in 2023, so the ones with a better and most united front BTW the west and east, will win the slot for presidency comes, 2023...... A word is enuf for the wise..
Funny, will allocation be reduced by FG because a state is opposition?
Ajimobi that preached that APC is at federal and our state should also be APC too, what become of it?
KendrickAyomide: Smh.. Pathetic. only God knows where the OP went.. God knows my life in Austria diary in the travel section is going to be something big on NL
Maybe he has a lot of workload, or the country is not that green to him again.
