If people can't come out in numbers to watch Original film ideas this weekend, then it's safe to say people just love IP movies & sequels and are just pretentious about the lack of originality.
Indeed! This is their chance to put their money where their mouth is.

comic book is not a series or a movie...
You don't just pick any character and give them their own series just cos fans liked their performance in the movie...

As a business entity, it is actually a smart move if they give a character its own series because fans love their performance in a movie.

Think about it…
yes it is...
My worry is sustaining it with a full blown series

I use a Visa card. If your card is a Verve/ Interswitch card it won't work. U need either a MasterCard of Visa card.

Those cards usually have a $100 dollar cap on them per month by the bank. So if you already spent up to $100 you won't be able to make other purchase online.
You might want to try flutterwave's Barter to get a virtual dollar card. Fund it, then you can use it to make online transactions.

I use a naira Mastercard from GT bank and it has never worked

Don't know about GTB. That bank card seems to have issues with purchases. I think I've seen a couple of complains on NL about people having issues purchasing stuff online.

I use Access Bank Visa card tho. And I've not faced any of those issues purchasing online. Try another bank. If you still encounter issues then Barter by Flutterwave is best for you.

Just thinking out loud here... in what context is "The Northman" an original movie?

It's inspired by Viking lore but not a particular story that happened or myth.
Being set in Norse world doesn't necessarily means it's telling a story from or about an event that happened in the past or about a person.

It's original in the sense that it ain't a sequel, spinoff or from an IP (game, book, TV, movie, a popular person, biopic, historical event).

Just a movie set in ancient Norse world.

9/10

This movie is very suspense filled. The days of horror movies being all about some psycho stalking you at night or ghost possessing dolls are over. Whoever wrote the plot/story of this movie is good. cheesy

Cao and purpl3 do you guys mind having a dinner with me? grin

I feel like this is a setup for a horror film.

THE BATMAN 8/10

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The cinematography was great, story line, splendid. The actors did wonderful. I was particularly impressed with the guy that acted Riddler. Robert Pattinson was wonderful as Batman. We didn’t get to see him much as Bruce Wayne. The little I saw of Bruce though was to me Batman without the mask( always thought Bruce was suppose to be the “billionaire playboy”. Hmmmmm, might because there wasn’t a scene where that would be appropriate).

I liked that they made good of the storyline of the young Batman by showing us his inexperience at that stage.

Was that the Joker at the end of the movie laughing with the riddler If yes, his joker laugh is really off.

Now I have seen this Batman, I’m going to give a general assessment of this and others I have seen.

I think Ben Affleck is the best Bruce Wayne and Batman. I would have given Pattinson that, but his Batman looked too down and moody(like he was always depressed). Christian Bale has the best Batman stories and movies and of course the best Joker.

It's loosely inspired by Amleth(the same one Hamlet is based on)..A prince flees to escape murder/assassination, comes back after some time to dole out his revenge...A bit of light horror...

Viking lovers like Abduleez1 will love it...

How do you guys enjoy horror movie, because I just can't seem to watch any no matter the hype, peer pressure or whatever. I just can't be on my own and decide LEMME FIND HORROR MOVIE AND WATCH, when my life is not boring.

So I ask again, how are you guys always able to watch horror movie and even follow some horror movie sequel embarassed

Johnny Depp and Amber heard is about a larger problem.

a western problem

An inversion of the problem of women in Nigeria. Double standards where men are immediately vilified and women made into heroes.

Johnny Depp career was immediately torpedoed when Amber heard made her allegations. When he made his allegations against Heard nothing happened. she is still in Aquaman 2 - she is even a spokesperson for some battered women's organization

So yes, it is an issue. Women in the west have mastered the art of gaming the system.

In the West your wife can literally call the police to kick you out of your own home and slap you with a restraining order. She can destroy your career. this is effectively what has happened here

these are the reasons for MGOTW in the west. it is just that 3rd world males have decided to latch on and adopt a problem that does not affect them in the slightest. it will take decades before women in third world countries come close to that kind of empowerment

So yes, as much as red pill and misogyny is a big deal for Nigerian women an unfair pussy pass system is also a big deal for men.

Even more so as no one can really tell if their babe or missis is waiting to follow them to obodo oyibo and then slap them with the system

This is beautiful

Perhaps you were referring to The Penguin, he was played by Collin Ferrell...and he didn't put on weight, it was all prosthetics.

yea, it’s was him. Don’t know why I mistaken him for Leto. I remember checking him online though. This pic made me think he added weight

I've not seen the movie but if what you have written here is true then this is a stupid adaptation of the character. Batman was trained by Raals Al Ghul, one of the greatest villains to grace the DC universe. I'm not saying the training is supposed to make him invisible but it's only common sense to think that batman would not be having trouble taking down regular street urchins. If he meets an equally trained villain that matches his skills then that is another story.

I saw him in the trailer walking like superman in front of gun welding bad guys. I just smacked my forehead in disappointment. Like, even if batman had a bulletproof suit, that's not how he operates. He operates know stealth mode, WTF are they doing?

this one doesn't use much stealth oh...
He's always in the open...he works with the police in the open...faces criminals in the open...

But I was shocked when those internet trolls almost killed batman with a shotgun...he even had to be saved by Catwoman

I think they wanted a batman that felt more grounded...I heard they said they designed his bat mobile to be more grounded ... something that can actually move in the streets without attracting too much attention

Ambulance (2022) 7.7/10
The movie is nice from start to end and no too much time waste, the 2hrs was totally enjoyable
Danny Sharp was my favorite and I totally 4get he Dy "No way home" but I knew his face but can't remember cheesy
unnecessary gay scene undecided
Will sharp I was praying for this guy to die in the last scene, his brother really love him ND risk his life just to save him but I understand why he did it sha lipsrsealed......last Las cry
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 1:26pm On Apr 25, 2022
Can we all agree the storyline for the ambulance movie was so poor, from the poorly planned heist..
One was even wearing birken stock slippers to a heist…
I mean why go through the stress of bringing in six people for the heist when you were gonna kill off their characters so early
Look at the way they even died, the Birkenstock slipper guy was knocked down by his own driver lmao
Poorly scripted plot I must say.
Just the car chase scene was the highlight of the movie
Cinematography wasn’t bad either.
