We have two Avatar movies, yet somehow these Arab free-to-air stations don’t show any. I doubt they show any modern film past 2010. Okay, show someone the first Iron Man or Spider Man movie na, mba. They advertise Free Guy a lot. I haven’t seen it. I saw Guns Akimbo once. It wasn’t a bad watch.

Na DStv win am, last last. Zero competition other than streaming your preferred movie online.

Horror films finally getting their dues?

Im Silently rooting for a sequel. The stellar cast and their performance didn't make the movie boring at all.

Teyana Taylor is stylishly becoming a force to be reckon with in Hollywood. She killed her role in One Battle After Another.

I honestly won't call any of those movie horror. Not at all.

Sinners is more like Watching from Dusk Till Dawn with machine guns. Lol.

Still a horror film tho. Horror film genre has the widest sub-genre of all and can blend with anything.

Abduleez1, now you know the universal praise is genuine.

Abdul, now you know the universal praise is genuine.

Make awards night reach first. I'm not doubting it's universal praise or whatever, I just feel it's over hyped.

Cos that movie isn't really a 8.5/10 movie and above for me? Doesn't feel like a potent Best Picture material for me, but what do I know. Vibes and pandering surely working for it.

Anyways, WB will be jubilating by now. Make I go check the full nominees list.

I'm not seeing her acting prowess, she is doing the same boujee ratchet bad girl schtick.
She looks good tho.

Kungfu Jungle 11/10
It was enthralling. Donnie Yen can fight to a standstill. Credit should go to the dude that played the villain for a character well portrayed

How 2025 went...... Didn't hit the target of 85 films but came really close. An improvement over 2024.

Hopefully, this year I'll be able to go 100 films.
Now it's time to finally start ticking out the awards contenders for this year's Oscars.

I'm rooting for Sinners and Coogler has to win best director.

Quite impossible. Best director is PTA already, not too sure of best picture

Lol, you say wetin?
Na Gothic horror you say no be horror.
You peeps should get this, horror genre is wide AF.

It doesn't mean because it's not gory, supernatural scary, the usual jump scares and all doesn't mean it's not scary. There's also psychological horror without these shït but messes with you mentally without needing the usual tropes.

Next we'll hear Wednesday isn't horror, just cause it's not scary? grin

Some projects are not meant to scare you one bit. Go and watch The Lightroom and come back later. It's horror but it's the psychological one. You might even get bored to sleep if you didn't know what you're expecting.

People often mistake thriller for horror.

I grew up knowing anything that has to do with horror, usually involve jump scare scenes, alot of suspense, and of course massive screaming. Movies like Friday The 13, Nightmare on Elm Street, Zombie The Flesh Eater, Halloween, and best of all, Evil Dead are all horror movies. Forget all this sub genre you're saying. It's just modernizing the whole thing.

That's the way I see.

Bruv all these movies you just mentioned belong to the subgenre of slashers.

No offense but there's no way you'll talk to someone well versed in literature and they'd agree with you that Frankenstein by Mary Shelley isn't horror. That falls on Gothic horror.

Funny thing is Gothic horror which is Frankenstein, Dracula, Werewolves and co are way older than even the slasher films you just mentioned. These films— the Slashers you mentioned were mostly established in the 80s while Gothic horror in film has been well established since the 1910s-1930s.

So you see Gothic horror which the Wednesday TV show/movies are based on vs Slashers no be mates at all. Slashers in fact are the relatively new subgenre adapting modern times.

It doesn't matter how you feel about it, it's just the way things are. Read up on the history of horror and you'll realise these films you just classified as the face of horror are in fact a new breed of horror not even the original thing.

Slashers are the reason I hated horror films for a while, while growing up. I mostly categorise them with little substance but blood and gore just for shock and awe value for audiences. Cos if you place most of these films under the microscope, their storylines and execution barely really make sense.

That's one of the reason horror genre barely gets recognition at the various awards body and the Academy. Not until the coming of The Exorcist, Silence of The Lambs etc.

Travis and Nolan must be good friends.

He did a song for Tenet back then and Nolan has a habit of working with people he has worked with before.

Is that supposed to be an excuse or justification? Having Travis Scott in this movie is a bloody disgrace.
