valboy20: I like the way you reply...first and foremost let's set the record straight, i never rated banshee a bad show.. was just mad at the niqqa claiming it got better script than TWD.
nonetheless imma debunk your claim by telling ya your link says "best shows of 2015"..banshee was rated above almighty GOT. isn't this laughable?
Yes banshee was rated 8.4 on IMDB but you're missing something - the number of voters 48,841 compared to TWD 605,992 and GOT 937,716 Banshee won't get above a 7/10 if 0.9 million people rate banshee. TWD was rated 8.6 despite having over half a milion raters..ain't that impressive 'nough. GOT pulled a high 9.5/10 from a million viewers. this is how you know a great show
lastly i'll munch you a screen on IMDb showing you banshee didn't make the top 240 rated series of all time.
have a good day  Firstly, let me address the bolded part. I asked if you have watched Banshee. You refuse to answer me. Last year was when banshee 3rd season aired and like i said before it is the best so far. The high octane action and suspence last year was OUT OF THIS WORLD. Thats why i said dont comment if you have not watched it. Ask people who did see it and hear their reactions. So i understand what the author of that list was thinking when he made it. You dont thats why you think its laughable Banshee is shown on cinemax a station with a very limited amount of subscribers. Hence its reduced number of viewers. Unlike HBO and AMC. And your comments about the show not making up to 7/10 if 0.9mil people rates just goes to show you havent watch the show. Rankings are simply popularity contest. Its 1 reason no matter how good TWD becomes it will never rank higher than GOT. Because GOT is more popular than TWD. Imagine in the imdb list GOT is 3rd while TWD is 170. But yet when you compare the two its like they are neck to neck but in your(imdb) ranking they are more than 160 series apart (in this part the ranking is useless). And here you are hating on a series thats less than 80 series behind walking dead (here the ranking is useful SMH). I dont use ranking to rate series i watch them to rate them. I also read reviews and critisms. Look at the reviews of banshee and see for youself. It seems we are looking at the wrong end of the telescope here. Am not comparing TWD with Banshee but what am saying is, dont badmouth a great show just to prove a point. Thank You!! |

valboy20: we have a clown here. banshee you claim was well scripted and it only had a meager 4 awards nominations. not even in the top 240 most rated series.
last I checked a 'badly written show' like TWD can boast of 137 awards nominations. Dude you're a colossal hediot. I ain't quoting ya again. Dude have you watch banshee at all? I mean the complete 3 seasons. If not then dont hate on what you dont know please. And please what rating was that? That you claim banshee was not among the 240 watever post the link please Here's a list i got just googling the best shows of 2015 and suprise suprise banshee ranks higher than TWD http://www.tv.com/news/100-best-tv-shows-2015-145067650651/page3/On imdb TWD is rated 8.6/10 while banshee is 8.4/10 and you are here hating on it as if its 2.1/10. Come talk well oh TWD is so awesome we agree but that does not in anyway diminishes the awesomeness of banshee. Thank You!! |

Or is it after the breaches opened that he all of a sudden knew he need flash's speed. And besides, Zoom have been terrorizin earth 2 even b4 d breaches were opened so how did Jay in earth 1 that you claim is Zoom travel between both earths. When there was no breach for him to travel through. So you can see your theory is riddled with holes. |

amicableSavage: I just saw episode 16, trajectory. Wells daughter, Tess, has left central city for good; Zoom is actually Jay. He's actually dying so that's why he has a blue blur.
The contradictions between zoom being Jay can simply be eased by saying, as a speedster, you can be in two places at the same time.
So that's why Zoom needs Barry's speed cos he's dying. So you didnt watch ep15 ending? When Zoom took Jay's body to his lair. Why will he pretend there to be in two places @ the same time if there was no 1 there to fool. The Jay we knew was not Zoom. He was Zoom's doppleganger. I tink Zoom is from another earth and Jay is from earth 2. And Jay which Caitlin saw was the Jay of earth 1. But who is the masked guy in Zoom's lair? Maybe he is another Jay from another earth(4) or he could b berry from Zoom's earth(3). Am feeling headache already. |

netizenbuzz: The thing is, this is the only excuse you as.sholes ever come up with. It clearly shows that you bi.tches have no other thing to offer than the little change in your pockets. Some of us don't want any of that but you fuc.k.boys have nothing else to offer. You will keep meeting golddiggers who would run you dry until you grow up and learn to behave like real men. Your forefathers took care of their wives and still respected them. Now we take care of ourselves yet you idiots will still not recieve sense. If all women are golddiggers like you claim, who are those I see working tirelessly day and night? Get out of here joor. You have no point. Sorry to ask but whats with the hostility. Did a guy do you strong thing or what? See we are all humans. Prone to certain impulses. No gender is perfect but to ulterly lay the blame or fault on us is just plain wicked and ignorance. U refered to the olding days ok. Let me ask you this, did women dress half naked, wear tightly fitted clothes, exposing powerful cleavage n so on during that time. No! Hence the respect and reduced promiscuity. Y wont there be fu*k boys everywhere. With the way women dress. In conclusion we r all responsible one way or the other for the treatment we receive from the opposite sex. |

AdeLaNa1: Aiya took Rebecca down with the help of a witch. And before that Rebecca had already taken down enough of the Strixs even when he vampire body hadn't fed in months. I wasn't trying to portray Rebecca as weak even though she is the weakest of the Originals. But if AIYA can take on Rebecca and survive, then maybe she can take on either of Elijah or Klaus(which i doubt) You are making it sound as if it was Rebecca vs Aiya. It clearly wasnt. If it was Aiya would have been dead since na. Despite the fact Rebecca was nt 100%. Aiya herself knew this thats why she brought back up. The reason Rebecca is weaker than Klaus and Elijah is because they are older than her and more experienced. Rebecca was mostly daggered by Klaus for years. Years that Klaus and Elijah gained experience that she couldnt because she was forced to sleep in a coffin. Even the best strategist would struggle without experience. |

AdeLaNa1: Aiya was marked?? I didn't notice. Anyways she is strong no doubt. But she definitely cant stand toe-to-toe with any Originals. But if she can manage to take Rebecca down, then maybe, just maybe she can take on Elijah or Klaus.... Sorry oh but please refresh ma memory, when did Aiya take Rebecca down? When the fought in Morocco or where ever that was, Rebecca just woke up after her witch body had being killed. And she hadnt fed and even at that Aiya needed the help of her fellow strixs to level the playing field. Just think what if Rebecca had all her strength then. Aiya subdued a weakened Rebecca with the help of that witch. See Rebecca is very strong, its just that the writers are treating her character unfairly or maybe its the actress herself refusing to commit permanently to "the originals" who knows? |

SSpeter: The thing is my dad had told my sisters a diluted summary of the whole event. He told them subtly that it was a court case one person must win. That I am only being over-reactive. And ladies go always believe hook line & sinker.....So the family meeting may not be a good idea cos sisters already thinks it's just a court case we lost Its a painful thing to experience. It cuts very deep to see your parents harassed and disgraced. It is truly unforgetable. But with Gods grace it can be forgiven. Look everyone deserve to know the truth. Your parents are wrong. Lets put your stance aside first. What if your brother found out later, possibly after getting married he would not be happy. He would be bitterly disappointed in all of you and he may resent you guys. So please tell him everything. Dont dilute it. If possible, send the same mail to ur sisters so they can know the whole story. Am guessing your a christian. Irrespective of the decision your brother takes after reading the mail. You need to try to let go of this bitterness. Its extremely difficult, possibly impossible, but you still need to try. We all make mistakes some more terribly than others but we should try to forgive. Trying and failing is ok, but you should still keep trying. It is a greater sin not to even try at all. Not after Jesus DIED for you. You forgiving them is not for their sake but for yours. Though it may seem impossible but in trying, much more have been accomplished. Please try to let it. Please dont influence your brother's decision. Just tell him the truth and let him decide. If he choose to marry her, please accept it and support him. Give the lady a chance, for we are not our parents. Bottom line let it go. |

Now from the above post its seem like ur moving from that point. In your defense this is how far i have gone with your dialog maybe you might have clearified tins in ur subsequent post. 1stly, Mikel did remarkably in AFCON 2013. Ask any1 who truely watch it to testify. Not all this pple using his current form to classify him ok. 2ndly, Did u watch Chelsea matches in 2013. Mikel was di mateo 1st choice dm. Thats b4 he was sacked. Benitez came in and gave Mikel a reasonable run of games. N he won d Europa league at CLUB level. So he wasnt the avid bench warmer as u like to potray him to be. Mikel isnt the best currently but he had an amazing season in 2013. And he deserved to have won it. Even Yaya Toure admitted this so please lets be straight. I didnt really want to comment but i dont like it when someone's hardwork is being diminished. He worked his soaks off for Club and Country that year and to diminish that is just plane cruel. Yes overall we can all agree that Toure is better. But that does not in anyways diminish the hardwork Mikel pt in dat year. |

I was only 18 and just saw that I failed my WAEC. During the action, I heard someone knocking my door and I was like "f@#k off", not knowing that was my mom. She uttered my name and I felt so cold immediately. When I eventually opened the door she went straight for the girl and striped her naked. My mom gave her the beating of her life. I was so embarrassed I was crying with the girl. To cut the long story short, the girl and I have now been married for 19 years and we are very blessed! Every time we go out to family party people who know our story always praise me for standing up to my mom to marry the poor girl and laugh out loud simultaneously. LOL What a story!!! |

I hope u remembered M.grobachev that appealed to the USA so that they disarm themselves and stop the weapon building ideology in the 80's when poverty creeped in....There were days USA was quite rascally and bellicose but during the 1990's they slowed down and decided to adopt diplomacy.....but dude no mistake their meekness for weakness o......those guys have gone far......because they are slow to act is not a sign of weakness oooooo......puttin has hot blood since time immemorial......merry xmas....from here....i hope you ate chicken? Of course na it wont be christmas without a bit of chicken lol. Let me just say this 1st , I have no love for mother Russia.

TV/Movies › Re: Avatar; The Legend Of Korra.... by Sultan5(m): 8:05pm On Dec 25, 2015 |
BraniacX: the meaning of what I said is that the backing you claim aang gets from toph and zuko in physical challenges isn't more significant than the backing korra gets from master tensin, the white lotus, the spirit of general iroh, firelord zukko and even zaheer in spiritual challenges,
on iroh vs zukko, please, don't insult my intelligence  on zukko vs azula, we all know that mental insanity and depression caused by a feeling of betrayal and abandonment by everyone she felt she deserved love from especially her long lost mum gave zukko the edge in that agni-kai or else quoting ozzai "some people (azula) are born lucky while others (zukko) are lucky to be born"
on zukko vs aangs first firebending master and member of the white lotus whose name I can't seem to remember, good you were mute on him, seeing as he was the greatest firebender of his generation and others if I may be bold enough to make the claim and for him, firebending was both a burden and an art (try and beat that )
and why wouldn't aang have been poisoned?
because unlike korra he wouldn't have surrendered himself to zaheer when the entire air nation or her family is captured right? or what exactly is your line of argument here?
and on korra's naively setting vaattu loose, tell me what choice aang would have made differently given the hostage unalaq had? just don't make callous statements on the premise of assumptions because if you really understand aang's personal nature like you claim to do, you would have understood that he would've done exactly what korra did if loved ones like katara were ever threatened. When i said asistance i mean in real time that is when i fight is going on. How did I insult ur intelligence concerning Iroh. I said he is a strong contender what else is there to say Did you read my post at all. If u did u could see i was just picking fun @Korra to probably lighten the mood. The problem here is your so focus on this that you r trying to make it personal. But i had i great day and i wouldnt let you ruin it. N concerning Avatar 1st firebending teacher. I honestly thought Iroh was the 1. Even now i still cant remember who ur refering to. Honestly though you take things too serious. The only definitive things i said is respect Zuko, and his supremacy over Azula. N concerning the poison please read lordprogress's post 4 a more clearer view. Today was christmas i was just poking fun @Korra. So men chill And lastly i didnt really get ur point about Azula. What was it u were driving at? Anyways i tink i said all i needed to say concerning Azula in my last post. I guess thats it really? Have a nice rest. |

TV/Movies › Re: Avatar; The Legend Of Korra.... by Sultan5(m): 1:26pm On Dec 25, 2015 |
BraniacX: like seriously?  where will you place iroh, aang's first fire bending master, azula(yes azula!) among others ?
now isn't that a funny question? the same reason for which korra was poisoned on the first place will be the obvious and simplest answer though not the only one, self sacrifice and duty as the avatar unless you are about to prove to me that unlike korra, aang would have broken free from the platinum chains and manacles and prevented himself from being poisoned 
oh I see  aang would just have popped into his avatar state at will and taken out Amman because aang was so in control of his entry and exit from the avatar state so he could do it at will by flicking his fingers and that is why azula was able to strike him with lightning while he was struggling to enter the avatar state oh! and also, aang was also so in control of his actions while he was in the avatar state and that is why rokku always had to come and pull his spirit away on his dragon to prevent him from doing further damage while lecturing him on control now I get you, aang was so spiritual that way so let me join you in dismissing Amman as a threat seeing how well aang was handling that old southern waterbending lady who was bloodbending him and zukko like puppets until katara came! mtcheeeew!
there are spiritual enemies and there is vaattu you'll be doing korra a great injustice by just calling vaattu a(another) spiritual enemy.
FACT! only two I repeat TWO avatars ever faced vaattu and they are the very first avatar and korra, vaattu is a once in ten thousand years spiritual archival and lest I forget, vaattu is the reason the avatar was created in the very first place.
what spiritual weakness? yes she wasn't spiritually inclined but she always finds a way in the end and besides, she has many sources of spiritual guidance from master tensin, the white lotus, general iroh even firelord zukko so how is it that she lacks spiritually the physical luxury of zukko and toph that you claim aang has?
do better? I don't think so @ all so fine! let's disagree. but please answer my first question, who would have bended the poison out of aang in the first place? Sorry i didnt get the bolded part. Anyways 1stly, I think lordprogress made some very good remarks in the previous page about some of these issues. And about ur question? Mine still stands because Aang would not have been poisoned in d first place. And about Vaatu dont overblow the importance of fighting him. Because Korra's naivity set him lose in the first place. If it was Aang lol am sure dat the number of people to have fought him would still be 1 lol. I guess we'll never no. And about Korra's spirituality i never said she didnt find a way in d end i said it caused a lot of harm. Iroh is a strong contender no doubt. And so was Azula bt her unstable mental state and rashness gives Zuko(the 1 in d last season) an immerse edge over her. Please respect Zuko he grew up he owned his skills and even went further. And with that twin diao da sword or watever its called. He is unstopable. This is a cheap shot though but he could even beat Korra. Lol And lastly smile its the holidays. Merry Christmas |

pasqal09: I don tire for this arguement.
Team Aang will beat the hell out of Team Korra.
End of discussion!!  Very true |
TV/Movies › Re: Avatar; The Legend Of Korra.... by Sultan5(m): 12:47pm On Dec 25, 2015 |
cao: Which Zuko are we talking about - old man Zuko, hothead Zuko, conflicted Zuko or Zuko that finally got his shtako together in the last season? And why should I explain if yes? Why does only one answer warrant an explanation? That already shows a bias to your questioning. Okay, I'm done playing devil's advocate.
I believe I removed myself from this argument/discussion a long while ago, with team Korra, I've always maintained that Asami would beat the snot out of Sokka, six ways till Sunday. Sokka, might have learnt from the Kyoshi Warriors and a sword master, but given Asami's father prejudice against benders, she probably learnt all her martial arts from masters. Sokka is intelligent, a decent strategist, but he sure as hell doesn't have the engineering prowess of Asami, he's street smart, she's book smart. We are better off with pitting Asami against Ty Lee, now I'd pay good money for that fight.
Bolin & Mako might be both excellent benders, but I don't believe they were trained extensively by any masters, they were orphaned street kids that at some point turned to crime before turning probenders. But, Toph & Zuko came from privileged. Yes, Toph family sucked, but she learnt from the original Earth benders - Badger Moles, and she discovered a new subset of Earth bending, Mako might have a slight advantage with lava bending, since that would definitely distort her "reading" of the earth. But, it won't end well for Bolin. Zuko learnt from his Uncle & the original fire benders - Dragons, he might have lacked the control in the beginning thanks to his anger and need for honour, but by the end of the show, he learnt to be patient and observe properly. He was the first one to notice that Azula was not all there, 'cause let's face it, we all know (including team Aang, Zuko's family, random guy on the street) that Azula was the better bender & fighter...But, in the long run, Mako's experience pales to Zuko's, the brothers will try to put up a fight, but they'd lose. See, I still gave an explanation for no...
As for Aang & Korra. I don't know, the Avatars are an interesting bunch with their ever changing personalities and fighting styles. As seen in their premiere season, Aang was a classic runner & avoider, as an airbender, he's default setting is to avoid. Korra (like the previous water Avatar) was the eternal challenger, the go-getter, the muscle - let's be frank, Korra was ripped. The first thing we saw Aang do was delay his responsibility, while with Korra she wanted to get on with it, remember kid!Korra's proclamation - I'm the Avatar, deal with it. By the end of it all, Korra might have lost her connection to all the past Avatars, but she regained a stronger connection with Ravaa, she's the avatar that truly created balance with the spirits and the humans. Aang created balance with the humans. And those that keep going on about the Avatar state, Aang appears to have relied on it more than Korra and we've seen that thanks to his emotional state, he subconsciously slipped into it more times than Korra. Aang's non-violent solution to dangerous benders was to take away their bending....well, that turned out to bite his future self in the ass.
As you can see, I've not given a real definitive, regardless of whom my previous paragraph might lead to. With those two, it could go either way... This is what i have been waiting to hear. I dont like d harmony Korra brought sha. I prefered it when both worlds were seperate. It made things straight forward and d show more realistic. |
