Lol, DC's back.
It's good this CGI animation is releasing in theatres.

They used the Superman and Lois series design for the Superman costume.

it's not about mindless action...it's about it being crazy and weird...I love stuff like that...

Why I also love superhero shows like The Boys and Invincible...cos they're crazy and don't follow the normal superhero formula

Also, how many seasons of Baki did you watch? There are 5 seasons oh...
2 old ones and 3 new ones

The 3 new ones only...and that's enough of that for me

Baddestguyp:
this issue is that you went into these anime looking for good plot and logical action...
But that's not what they're about...
Especially Baki...

Baki is known to be absurd... nothing there follows normal logic... especially the actions of Yujiro hanma, Baki's father

Check out this video and the other videos in the channel...Baki is one crazy anime I love so much

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7r71fcA0DY

I actually like Yujiro, he was my favourite character with Biscuit Oliver...
Should have named the series Hanma instead of Baki tbh cos his character wasn't interesting in anyway.

Side note,if you love all these mindless action and logic then what's your issue with superhero movies??

Baki, trash? Could be due to the fact that it's 20 years, so it's kinda dated but it's a battle shounen OG.
As for Seven Deadly Sins, it's alright for the first 2 seasons and then the animation goes to the dustbin.

Bro it was annoying asf to me...makes sense it's old.

I sacrificed myself and saw baki so now nobody should see it because it is trash you're welcome. Now I gotta ask, is seven deadly sins any good?

Green Arrow is not a major player in DC bro. And why not make his film straight than black canary? Black canary doesn't improve on the current slate compared to green lantern and Martian manhunter. Zatanna is understandable the rest should be shelved. Oliver Queen can be introduced in a Batman film or a suicide squad film, right now bringing black canary on big screen makes no sense.
Black Adam introduces the history of Shazam and the JSA. Every current slate brings something new, what does static shock, black canary, plastic man bring when main players like Cyborg don't have films?
Am not against their films but they should be the next generation of the DCEU, which is why I feel Batgirl is too soon except her film adds something to the story.

Currently Green Arrow has played huge roles in the comics with big storylines like Dceased and death of the Justice League with Black Canary, it would be wise if they capitalise on that.

WWE RAW REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS

Bullet Club Leaders Unite?
Devotees of this column know I’m a huge fan of what’s happening with Edge and Damian Priest right now. Their name aside, it just works for me. That streak continued this week as a returning AJ Styles wrestled performed against Damian Priest for the chance to fight Edge on the dolo (shoutout to the Mobb Deep fans) tip at WrestleMania Backlash. Edge’s prematch promo proved he not only needs to be a heel, but this specific heel. Edge is a heat magnet when there’s a little bit of truth to what he’s saying.
As fans, we kinda do hold back the good guys. If the goal is to win the match by any means necessary, there are limits someone like babyface AJ will cross so the fans won’t boo. That need for adulation sometimes is the difference between a W and the L.
This entire angle makes Priest more interesting as well. He has a purpose in the ring, while both AJ and Edge bring out the best in him. Even this week, Damian looked good in defeat. There’s never any shame losing to AJ, but there’s definitely no issue with Styles getting a win by the skin of his teeth. In fact, one might argue the win only happened because Edge distracted AJ to help his protege. Edge wasn’t so much protecting Priest as he was ensuring his insurance policy remained at ringside for his upcoming match. That didn’t happen, and we’re getting AJ vs. Edge one-on-one.
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE...
Finn Balor, he of “poor Finn” fame, came out to save AJ Styles from a frustrated Edge and Damian. Finn has his own issues with Judgement Day—the group, not the PPV—and picked this moment to save his Bullet Club bruv. And it was very dope! But I do hope there’s more here and we’re going somewhere. Finn and AJ giving each other the Bullet Club salute is cool but it better lead to something. It’s the most interesting development for Finn since going to NXT and becoming a Prince.

The Rest
Kevin Owens is a Gem
I know, I know. I sing KO’s praises every week but how can I not? In the brief interaction we got between The Street Profits, Ezekiel (ELIAS), Alpha Academy, and the previously mentioned KO was pure gold just for his reactions and side comments. We got another entertaining match between all six men. In a good narrative moment, KO got the upper hand on Ezekiel very briefly, allowing Chad Gable to pin Zeke with an Oklahoma roll.
I love this story maybe a bit too much.

Blood Feud
Raw was all about crew love when it opened this week. We got the Bloodline, featuring the Undisputed Universal champ telling Greensboro, NC to acknowledge him, followed by RK-Bro with a surprise attack on The Usos. Out came Drew McIntyre with sword in hand, to square off against Roman Reigns. This is wrestling so you know a brawl ensued between all six men. Rather than give the people what they want, Adam Pearce and a bunch of other people came through to stop the brawl...and that was it. Seriously, nothing else happened. A hot start with zero follow up elicits both a yawn and a meh.

Sonya, Sonya, Sonya
The main event was underwhelming. We got a six-woman tag, which sounds exciting. Right? Becky Lynch, Rhea Ripley, and Sonya Deville taking on Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, and Asuka! There’s plenty of beef to throw on the grill with these women, so let them fight and let it get violent.
But that’s not what we got. The match was fine but it didn’t feel special. It definitely didn’t feel like a match for a go home show. Even with all those different issues, this was about Sonya Deville’s fall from grace. She lost her “WWE Official” status for the night, she’s still under investigation, and Liv Morgan pinned her. The babyface team celebrated while Becky, Rhea, and Sonya stewed.

Veer Squash
While I do enjoy Veer—and his hair—I grow tired of the squashes at this point, After months...and months...and months announcing his coming, we need a little more than squash matches from the guy. Let’s hope he’s still not demolishing local talent one month form now.

Marriage on the Rocks
The 24-7 title scene keeps entertaining. R-Truth is the worst husband in history because he not only allowed his wife to succumb to a sneak attack from Nikki A.S,H. but also tried to pin her for said title after getting Dana a rematch with Nikki to “save the marriage”! Truth is a mess of a husband and Dana is 1000 percent correct to demand a divorce like she did this week. As the world turns...

Seth Insults The Dream
To quote another Marcus, “this sh*t just got real.” Seth Rollins wanted his own appreciation night. Cody Rhodes said “nah.” Seth wanted his flowers from Cody, Cody said “nah” again! Seth insulted Dusty Rhodes and that was enough for Cody to snap. One thing you never ever ever do is insult someone’s dead parent. If you do, you better break fast like eggs and bacon because the beating is coming faster and more furious than Dom, Brian, and crew.
This was a good angle to get a lot of heat on Seth before their upcoming match, and get the crowd even more behind Cody.

Stop Evoking The Hurt Business
If there’s one black eye on this show, it’s Cedric Alexander taking on Bobby Lashley in hopes of impressing MVP. Mostly because it continues this thread that Cedric—and Shelton by proxy—are desperate losers clamoring for the old days. Yes, we needed to make Lashley look strong before taking on the Big Man, cool. But Cedric isn’t a threat to Lashley. And, once again, it reminds me of something I miss and something much better than what we’re getting.

Ali x Ciampa part deux
Theory and Miz beat Mustafa Ali in handicap match because of course they did. Adding insult to injury, Ciampa attacked Ali again this week. Doing the same thing as last week with no explanation isn’t story progression; it’s running in place.

Stringer Bell once said no one cares about a 40 degree day. This episode of Raw was a 40 degree day. It was average, some cool things happened, but it was just there for the most part. I expected more for a go home show. Here’s hoping we have a great episode of SmackDown on our hands this week.

Grade: C

Adventures of Tintin 7/20.

Ambulance: 10/10.
Good plot, Brilliant, Educative, entertaining, comic, thrilling. This movie is a perfect example of how a movie should be executed. The best for the first quarter of 2022.

Micheal Bay is a really good director I like his style, I'm sure I wasn't the only one rooting for the bad guys in the end. Yayah's character Will was soo fvcking annoying Danny went on 37 bank Jobs and never got caught once but the one time he brings will everything that wasn't supposed to go wrong did from the first minute, inbuilt badluck

I think him and Whalberg had good chemistry in the movie, I enjoyed it.

Comprehensive skill like I love to say is not for everyone, I said I was bored and just needed something adrenaline pumping at that moment.

Did I say anything about caring for the franchise?

If you wanted your adrenaline pumped you should have watched the first one...you played yourself and your adrenaline.

You need to remember the original starship troopers is a Paul Verhoeven movie

On the surface its a dumb action movie

But it reality its a satire on war and fascism

Service guarantees citizenship.

Which is how Verhoeven does. Guy grew up in fascist Austria where war was fetishesized.

Why won't watching movies feel like a chore when you pick up each and every trash you see available for download.

Develop a peculiar taste and stick to it.

Matrix latest installment.

MIB : International

Last Saw installment

And many other blockbusters, I don't bother myself with them because I refuse to be contaminated.

Infact, yesterday evening on Netflix when I was bored and needed something adrenaline pumping, was the first time I am seeing the Jason Bourne franchise and I only picked up the 2016 release, read up about the other installments on Wikipedia to catch up on the plot.

Only watch sensible things, not those nonsense in your screenshot.

the 2016 release was mid compared to the first 3...you played yourself.

My advice, since it's a developmental, get NXT off TV. The inconsistencies now will be glaring.

Apart from Bivens none of them were doing anything

Malcolm Bivens

They ball nice possession football but they are kinda soft. Made things easy for us in the midfield but Ceballos really impressed today.

He looks ready to take over from Kroos and Modric.

Ceballos has always been a baller, be was just unlucky with Zidane and injuries.
