ArinzeAnthony03:
They just showed us one car...please can we see his car garage?

Thank you bro, i am surprised only your comment differ from the rest.

So y'all think that's his only car?

Even Sterling have a similar mini car.

Electronzeez:
True blood Vs the originals ? ...think again .

The originals is the best vimpire series .it's everything .

You are the one that should think again man...

All these breasts only looks good in tight clothes, once the clothes are off you begin to see stretch marks and dirtiness.

Pavore9:
After being a Governor of a State, they become eager to represent a third of the same State....No shame in them!

He was even a senator before he became governor.

The Shining - maybe if I'd watched it in the 80s and not with a 20th century perspective/lens, I'd have found it interesting, intriguing and scary like most horror movies. The movie was unnecessarily long, with unnecessary long dialogues instead of cutting to the chase and getting down to the basics. The acting of Jack's wife was particularly uninspiring. I find the movie kinda childish. It didn't get my heart racing one bit till around the last 15 minutes of the film when Wendy started seeing ghosts and the flowing blood. I mean, it took over an hour for me to witness a real ghost action when the old woman and Jack kissed. I slept off last night while watching it after the Champions League final match. That's how boring I found it.

The Shining 3/10. Koice, this is the only taint in your list of wonderful suggestions.

Be careful with old movies, they are like throwback photos and you know how they look compared to new advanced tech cams.

Agriculture (planting vegetables, corn, tomatoes etc)

Buying and selling ladies toiletries (to smell good and because of their monthly visitor) .

op, madam you sabi English.

Toyade888:

Jumanji

dahaz:
you want to rob him of his data ne

Yes, just like people rob each other of their time in IN TIME ft Justin Timberlake.

Just joking, he can't finish the data naw, so i want him to share it with me if he lives close to me.

dansolution:
I need websites to download 720b and 1080b version of latest movies. Plz kindly drop the links. Have almost 100gb data wasting. Thanks

Ah..
What is your location?

Ishilove:
Omg... Oh Koice you are so naughty

hoooo, naughty naughty

Beorn:
Look on the bright side. I'm sure just like me, you've never attended a Nairalander's wedding. If Ishi and Koicë gets to hook up and marry, we'll be getting a wedding invite.

Sure, but seems Koice is the shy type hiding behind keyboard.

Koice must really like Ready player one.

koice:
Dude, don't even go there. We were discussing a very intellectual movie, sharing theories, okay? Get your mind out of the gutter.

A lot more can happen from sharing theories.

We can even get a pre wedding photoshoot.



I know Ishi don't like posting spoilers, reason for the mail. so it's! just banter, don't take it too serious. Which one is gutter.

[quote author=Beorn post=67849420][/quote]It's here for all to see and it concerns me and it's obvious from what the mama is doing.

From mail checking to hook up.

Mortal Kombat Legacy is not interesting

Beorn:
Ok, have you watched The Babysitter? It's a Netflix horror movie. In short, horror movies are not fantasy movies, right? So how are they logical?

Another one. Fast and furious, are they in sci-fi or fantasy genre? The answer is a fat no. So how come the cars were moving through air from one skyscraper to another in Fast Furious 7? Is that possible? But yet people are watching it till the end and gushing about how amazing it was even when they knew the directors are lying to us all. You see, if we are looking for logic, very few films are worth seeing.

I said some action movies are fantasy where i mentioned fake stunts.
For example, Fast and furious, everyone have this fantasy of racing with their car(s) at crazy speeds which was what the movie is based on.

Beorn:
You're missing the whole point. The point I'm trying to make is both are fictions and not real. OK, since your problem is about the genre of fantasy being included, let's take it to another genre.

You've watched or heard about films like Rambo and Schwarznegger's Commando where a single person takes on a battalion of solders and wipes them out while not dying at the end. Please, care to explain how "logical" that sounds to you? Why haven't a single soldier killed all Boko Haram since it's logical in films?

What about Jet Li films where people fight in air, use knife to defend rain of arrows? Is that a fantasy genre too? But we all loved it. At the end of the day, they're all lies. All fictions. We just watched for fun.

Koice your input is needed, come and weigh in on the matter.

Beorn:
Oyetpel, what about Brad Cooper's Limitless? Is that drug real? Is the movie a fantasy too? Yet we enjoyed it. The point is all those films are fake, they're fictions.

Limitless is a fantasy movie. Most sci fi movies are fantasy.

That drug have altered normal human behaviour giving him a superhuman mind, so it has crossed the line to a fantasy.

Beorn:
Revenge and BP are both fiction and not real life story. Black Panther was pushed off a cliff in a human state and yet miraculously survived, got rescued by a wandering rival tribesman and stayed in a state of coma till healed by a magical flower. Both films are fictions whether fantasy or not. The entertainment level is what will differ due to individual choices.

Don't confuse yourself.

Do you want to compare say, 24 hours series to Agents of shield?

Black Panther is a fantasy movie that involves superheros with superhuman powers.

Did revenge characters have superhuman powers?

So things like vibranium, purple leave can't find it's way into a movie that deals with realities of normal human beings.

Genres like fantasy, sci fi, sometimes action movies can't be taken seriously because of fake stunts, supernatural, effects in them.

But a movie like Den of thieves, romance movies, comedy, drama are films that are logical and deal with realistic actions and behaviours.

Beorn:
If we are to follow your line of thought, then no film is worthy of finishing. You watched Black Panther to the end, right? Well, you'd have quit from the beginning because they took us for fools.

Wakanda does not exist.
None of the characters exists.
Vibraniun is a lie.
The flower that automatically heals people does not exist.
There's no real recorded of the fight scenes in Tokyo.
There no human that can climb buildings or survive bullet shots wearing one imaginary Vibranium vest.

So, Films are fictions. Even the ones based on real events are garnished with some acts or storyline that never happened to add a bit of flavour to it.

I have not watched revenge, but you can't conpare it with Black Panther.

BP is fantasy, revenge is not so they are suppose to be factual and logical to nature.

Why are you all spoiled na?

koice:
While you're certainly right to some degree, you generalized. Lemme show you how.

Tv shows come in many forms: Dramas, reality tv shows, sitcoms, soaps, miniseries, and documentaries. Now, dramas can be classified into 2: Serial and procedural. In serial, every episode is linked to each other, held together by a common plot, whilst in procedural, each episode has it's own plot and not always linked.

Now in my experience, serial drama tend to have shorter seasons, one or two writers, which helps to facilitate consistency and fluidity between episodes, effectively eliminating filler episodes, protracted and convoluted plotlines. Quality content is hence achieved. Serial dramas are monopolized by premium cable giants like HBO, Showtime, FX and lately, streaming mediums like Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime.

Procedurals have longer seasons, multiple writers, which can lead to inconsistencies between episodes, protracted, fillers and convoluted plots. NBC, CW, FOX, ABC and CBS (the big networks) are the chief proponent of this quantity over quality mode of tv entertainment.

To address the emboldened, when you talked about that, you were only talking about the big Network tv shows, not the premium cable variety. The later is quality over quantity whilst the former is quantity over quality. When I said tv shows have superior character development over movies, I was using cable's version of drama as my model of excellence.

To conclude, you shouldn't generalize on certain things, because there are a lot of moving parts going behind the scene you may not be aware of.

I still maintain my stance that most tv shows either serial or procedural, they all fill their shows with unnecessary scenes to waste time to prolong the series.

Nigeria are now becoming knowledgeable, before we all take in these shows hook line and sinker.

But if you check the series thread, you will read people saying, this or that should have ended because they feel the show have climax.



OR people saying they have stopped watching so and so shows because they are starting to decline in their thrills.

koice:
It is. When something is 2hrs+, character development don't have the luxury to drag. A talented writer working with a talented actor can get the most out of a character, but it's incomparable to a tv show variance.

Yes i know, but tv shows seems to drag on so as to keep it running, so they start adding unnecessary scenes and storylines.

Which makes one feel disconnected from it.

koice:
Don't you feel rushed whenever watching a movie? Because of the time constraint involved, movie characters goes through a comically rushed development sequence that serves to not only alienate the audience, but make the plot feel kind of half-assed. By contrast, longer plots in tv shows leave ample room for characters to maneuver at a more steady pace, hereby, creating a feeling of intimacy with their audience. Meaning, the viewers can become far more invested in tv show characters than movie characters.

Character development in movies are not rushed, it only leaves one to decipher the character's arc.

Marvel 'planning Muslim superhero film'.
Marvel have a new film "in the works" in the shape of Muslim superhero Ms Marvel.
In the comic books, Ms Marvel's alter-ego is Kamala Khan, a Pakistani-American teenager from New Jersey.

for the hardcore lovers MERANTAU is the name!

Any download link?

dealtinate:
Yup. Better character development, continuity, longer plot, better storytelling, more relatable characters and flexibility are some of the many reasons I would rather watch a tv show than a movie in my spare time.

I don't think tv series have better character development because of longer plots.

The longer plots create room for rubbish script scene fillers, which is what led the to fall of Designated survivor.

dealtinate:
Any top movie recommendations? Sci-fi, romcom, mystery thriller genre are all acceptable. Please no horror.

This is suppose to be the other way around, i am the one that you should asking you these, not you.

Nonetheless, have you seen live by night(thriller)? Brooklyn(romcom)? Brimstone(Mystery)?.

dealtinate:
Lolz. Not at all. Variety is the spices of life as they say. Not a movie buff (not anymore), but I do watch movies from time to time (usually when I have ran out of new shows to watch or bored of playing FIFA), and naturally, when I'm in my movie phase, I backtrack to this thread to spy on the recommendation of others. Sometimes, I even join in the conversation.
