So it's only men that are allowed to critique women? If a 37 year old married Nigerian mother of 3 had come to a public function with an open chest outfit, the shaming will go on for miles. Blake Lively is one of the most classy women in Hollywood, suddenly wanting to look "hot" is not a good look on her

I get your point, really, but she’s not trying hard. She has always looked hot asf and that “open chest” outfit is normal here in America, she’s not trying anything, she just put on an outfit - married or not ; women wear stuff like that all the time

I'm watching the most abhorrent and uncomfortable movie I've ever seen in my life and I'm not even done.
The Kindergarten Teacher - I'm planning on homeschooling my kids till they're 10 or so because if this is how some teachers actually behave - I don't think I can cope without strangling a woman

It Ends With Us

Too many coincidences make the movie look like a nollywood piece.

Na Reynolds wife them just dey romance like this?

For her age, She’s got huge sex appeal though.

I think we talked about this some weeks ago. Their business model is not a very smart one. Them trying to go bullish as a rookie in the business whilst ignoring marketing and publicity always looked doomed to me from the onset.

More surprising is that thier parent company literally built thier name from strong marketing strong arm and publicity. Apple could easily sell you a basic pen and slap one gimmick name on it, and it will be the most expensive pen you'd ever see and people will rush to buy😩, so uncanny how Apple TV is fumbling this bad with such a great rooster.

TKOTFM VOD release was like 3 weeks after the cinematic release, and for a big budget title with one of the best filmmakers on board, i was wondering what was even the point? Why not just do am exclusive VOD release on your platform?.

The good thing is that, Apple TV plus isn't limited off Apple inc yet, and so the parent company still bankrolls it and chest all the losses they have incured during their short stint so far. If they were actually running on their on profits, Apple TV plus would actually cease to exist within the next few years 😭

Yea, we talked about their unserious marketing strategy weeks ago.

I no expect them to fold this quick especially with their funny tactic of being the "HBO of streaming".

Even HBO with all it's insane pedigree and unsullied GOAT status no dey use marketing play at all for their major production.
You go see @ds and big accounts promotion for social media tire. Everywhere go choke.

Frumpy oversized suit aside, a married mother of 3 in her late 30s has no business stepping out like that. She wants to show that she still has it,she only ended up looking tacky

Wetin concern me... Married or not.
Open chest make I see something jor!!! !

Na she wan show brezz na. Na the husband palava with discipline not mine.

And she's definitely hot tho.

You are preaching to the choir here, some people just comment just for the sake of it without understanding nuances. It makes me question their mental acumen at time. She lives in a society where this is normal, just because it isn't normal in yours doesn't in anyway mean you should throw shade because quite frankly its pointless.

BlackManta:
Another multiverse superhero movie incoming

This one promises the biggest fan services in the history of fan service

It's going to be a cameo galore

IF IT MAKES A BILLION I'LL DEACTIVATE

I genuinely hope you keep your word.

So, Deadpool and Wolverine crossed the $1b mark on Sunday night. ✔️

BlackManta:
People are mocking Flash and WB like Disney ain't got 3 flops this year with Quantumania, Little Mermaid and Indiana Jones

But R rated Deadpool 3 with over flogged multiverse concept will hit a billion

Epic clowning

I stand by my words

And by your words will you stand!!! Who is the clown now?

BlackManta:
E b tins

E be tins bro. $1b for this current Hollywood industry no be here. How far, you go deactivate na.

oyaskii:
Bro didn't want to bump uglies with his own gender and he dipped and now people are unemployed 😭😩😅.

On a serious note, casting crew should know that despite actors been able to bend and navigate through a number of roles, roles that would involve sexual orientation different from the one they are irl would always be sensitive to some actors/actress and it's best to just cast straight characters to straight actors and non-straight characters to non-straight actors/actress to avoid all these drama. At least both side of the divide have enough good actors currently for this to happen

Why does this reek of publicity stunt because the math ain't mathin? It's a period piece which will already have a limited release with a same sex story already makes it more limiting

First and foremost, the movie was his idea, he was the one that brought it up to Todd as Phoenix is still producing it, sets have even been built. Are you telling me he just threw away money like that? In this economy that celebs are also feeling?

He was the one that pushed for the movie to be NC-17 and pushed for the sex scenes to be super graphic when Todd wanted to make it tame

You wan tell me say baba just decide say he's developing cold feet 5 days to shooting when his money is at stake too? Smells of PR stunt if you ask me

If he really did quit, then I understand why people think his late brother River was more talented

Alright. Let's see you keep your word. Unless, you want to tell us you're speaking figuratively.

My @ss is fatigued already waiting for am to show up, so I can plaster the whole thread with Deadpool receipts.

SOZINN:
@BlackManta

Lol that guy never has anything positive to say about Marvel and by extension Disney. I have been watching his comments here for a while. If he does at all maybe once in a blue moon.

Its not as if he is the only DC fan here. Other DC fan understandably come for Marvel when they have the chance but still you see them acknowledge when they do good. People like abduleez and the purple guy

I do hope he is a man of his word and actually deactivate. I would respect him alot.

Don't worry, he will not use nairaland today.

abduleez1:

except Joaquin was the one pushing for the penetration in the first place so he pushed what he couldn't pull out lol. Also, I'm pretty sure Joaquin "isn't the one doing the bending" (in Janet Jackson's voice)

Flamemignon1:

It begs the question, A publicity stunt to what end? because people have literally lost their jobs because of it and pre production budget up in flames.

First and foremost, the movie was his idea, he was the one that brought it up to Todd as Phoenix is still producing it, sets have even been built. Are you telling me he just threw away money like that? In this economy that celebs are also feeling?

Playing a role that is as sensitive as that and different from what he actually is irl is enough valid reason for him to develop "cold feet", furthermore, Actors are scrutinized more than ever now, and he probably felt he wouldn't be able to interpret the role as good as initially thought so rather than do a poor job and get vilified by the LGBTQA community, it was better he backed out now, and i think this is a valid reason.

He was the one that pushed for the movie to be NC-17 and pushed for the sex scenes to be super graphic when Todd wanted to make it tame

He probably didn't envisage how graphic it would be in real life, and it probably looked rather tame in his head. So him been straight, the role became all too difficult to interpret, and this again is a valid reason.

You wan tell me say baba just decide say he's developing cold feet 5 days to shooting when his money is at stake too? Smells of PR stunt if you ask me

At bolded i know you are just saying that out of spite!. Joaquin Phoenix is an oscar best actor winner, and that's like an exclusive club, a club of like 5% of all actors that have ever existed!.

Again, i beg to wonder what kind of Publicity stunt he was going for doing this. He is an A list actor, so he must likely didn't have his personal money in production, and most likely would have had backers who he might have explained his decision to, before announcing it. He will continue to be sought after because the talent is there. He is even a reclusive, that's why he picks carefully the role he's in, if not he would be in just about every film, with the kind of talent he has. So this has done nothing to his reputation in the market.


Again like i said before, i have never been a fan of straight actors telling the stories of non-straight people. The LGBTQA community are a unique speck of the human condition and nobody can tell their story better than them. It is still a sensitive grey area for most straight actors, some can go through with it and others can't and it doesn't negate their talent. I think the best representation of the community by straight actors i have seen in the recent times have been Eddie Redmayne in "The Danish Girl" (2015), but not every straight actor can be Eddie Redmayne!. So casting crew casting actors/actress according to thier orientation might be the best way to go.

Joaquin Phoenix probably would have just got his act and called it quit earlier than this, rather than causing this unnecessary drama which has made him quite possibly a persona non grata in the non straight community.
