Also, I'm not sure any movie goer opinion count on here so calm your nerves. Your opinions do not matter too, that doesn't mean you can't opine on what you want. At the end of the day, it's just a movie, just entertainment, enjoy, argue, laugh and move on, doesn't have to be more than that or send subliminal shots below the belt.
grin It's the way he said that folks who wait for the movie to start streaming before downloading it give opinions that aren't worth crap. As if this thread is not where all of our reviews end. If this were the IMBD or Rotten Tomatoes, they would have averaged all of our scores and shown it online for anybody to see when they search for the movie.

However, that is not the case in this instance because this is Nairaland and the vast majority of people living overseas are unaware of our existence, so what precisely are we asserting here? Which sane person will look up Nairalanders' reviews of a film they intend to watch. Both those who watched it on their phones and those who went to the theaters will post reviews that will only take up space on this thread, so everyone should just rest.

because some people watch a movie in a cinema they suddenly think their opinion is of a greater value...lmao

Personally I only watch in the cinema if I have the time to go out and I think the movie is worth it...
Doesn't matter where you watch it, your opinion is worth as much as mine

Story.

Watching certain movies in the cinema and at home can give different experiences.

Avatar, Black Panther, The hobbit etc are all movies that had a different cinematic experience between the cinema and the home.

Avatar was cool because of its graphics and 3d effects. It was meant for big screens. Black Panther had the zeitgeist of black empowerment at a time it was needed.

same way it's easier to get lost in the moment and forget obvious flaws in the cinema...
While on the other hand, you are more critical watching personally...


Take No Way Home for instance...a movie built around Nostalgia...
Watching in cinema with marvel fanboys screaming with excitement, it will be hard to rate it less than 9/10
But watch at home and you'll notice all the obvious flaws...9/10 suddenly becomes 6/10

I already reviewed Dr strange sometime back, hence my "subpar" conclusion. I just didn't jump to that.

Reading this reply also showed you're just being emotional about marvel movies. I'm a big fan of marvel, I've seen all their movies but I don't comment with emotions. The few good things about marvel phase 4 movies are the graphics and sometimes acting, the fight scenes, the plot, the direction and many others things have been below par, considering how marvel's movies were.

As for Thor 4, I've read trusted reviews (not just nairaland garbage) on the plot, the delivery, the acting and the likes, like I said, the acting seems to be the highlight. I'm still seeing it on Wednesday.

Also, I'm not sure any movie goer opinion count on here so calm your nerves. Your opinions do not matter too, that doesn't mean you can't opine on what you want. At the end of the day, it's just a movie, just entertainment, enjoy, argue, laugh and move on, doesn't have to be more than that or send subliminal shots below the belt.


Note: a movie going on to make crazy money doesn't mean it's good just like movie making shitty money doesn't make it bad. I'm sure you know this though but your emotions won't allow you accept that fact.
Yes I was emotional, I won't deny it.
The crux of the matter is that you started by deriding emotional movie reviewers, and then went on to make a negative post about Marvel movies.
Doctor Strange is an objectively good film and it pains me that you called it subpar without giving good reasons.
I would just as easily be pained if someone called The Batman a shitty movie out of the blue.
As a lover of good CBM, if you critique one without giving a good reason, it automatically sets me off.
Doesn't matter if it's DC or Marvel, I will react exactly the same way.
BTW, I never said my opinion mattered. I was just pointing out how futile our opinions are in the general scheme of things.

he doesn't have to state reasons...many on this thread have already pointed out numerous obvious flaws with the movie...
What's the point of him repeating what so many have said?

lmao...keep crying cos others are not blind marvel fanboys like you...
Ratings are subjective...if you don't like their ratings move on...

You expect people to rate a movie 10/10 when many things make no sense in the movie? If the central conflict makes no sense, it's hard to rate a movie above 6/10

1. Wanda's motive made no sense...

2. Her excuse for not simply working with Strange and America to send her to a universe where the kids are orphans was that "what if my children fall sick?"
That is the dumbest line in the entire movie...funny how the writers couldn't come up with a better excuse

3. If Wanda could dreamwalk from the start, she didn't need to send a monster for America...
But no, we need a big CGI fight scene at the start

4. Strange getting nerfed every movie...

5. Wanda kidnapped America for almost 40mins but didn't take her powers as if waiting for rescuers to come

6. The best team and smartest character in the universe acting like a total idiot...for the plot to happen

I could keep going on and on but I don't have your time

7. How did she know which Universe America was in at any given time ?. It's not mentioned, only that Dreamwalking is possible.

8. America could not control her powers for years...but all Dr Strange had to say was "believe in yourself, you can do it"
Suddenly America becomes kickass...her powers are now so easy for her to control, she can even also fight physically, for a moment it even felt like she would beat up Wanda with her fists alone grin
She did way more damage to Wanda than Strange did...

9. How did Wanda and everyone else forget about Vision?
Doesn't Vision exist in other universes?

10.

I don't wish for this to be a back and forth, I already said I gave comment on Dr Strange MOM a while back, that's the reason for the shiity-ness I gave it.

At least you've accepted that you were being emotional, I'm not judging you, I'm only trying to pass my point. I don't allow emotions to cloud my stance on anything, I try logically/factually but movies can't really be 100% reviewed logically with fact because the numbers don't always tell the story, hence the difference in opinions even from the highest critics.

Making a negative comment about Marvel movie is me being critical about their past movies, doesn't mean I hate them. I've said a million times that I'm still going to see Thor, why would I waste my money on something I hate? By the way, I'm not playing down your opinion, I'm just trying to let you know that it will always differ, we can't all think the same way. Either I downloaded it or saw it in the cinema, my opinion will remain what it is, MINE.

By the way, I'm a big marvel fan doesn't mean I don't follow DC. My best CBM is Batman: Dark knight followed closely by Captain America: Civil War while the best fight scene I've ever seen in a CBM is THAT Batman vs Superman epic fight...

PS: I love The Batman, it's my best CBM so far this year...

PPS: I think trying to downplay the high sea pirates is a bit of a double standard because I'm sure everyone here has downloaded a movie online at a particular point, there's no need to attack us.
