Bad belle cheesy
the dude should rather use this time to fast and pray for captain marvel. The way disney hypes the film, so many articles disturbing me abt the film, based on the trailers i d0n't see anything that attracts audiences to it. The visuals have been overflogged, and it feels like a reacti0n to critics asking for that one female centric marvel film. I pray it does well though. And i pray god answerz shittaakeem's prayerz too. The dude was busy praying to God to n0t make captain marvel flop. Never seen such loyalty and desperati0n before. The dude redefines 'William Ouchi's theory z of behavioural management'

Let me burst your bubble, Black Panther was an overrated movie that was overblown by prejudiced black power movement. The movie had nothing to offer except showcasing ugly black culture costumes. It didn't deserve to make $1 billion+ as well.
'Ugly black culture costumes'.. If this was said by a white guy now, una go scream racism.

I thought I was the only one that found captain marvel trailers underwhelming.... Brie Larson was miscast in my opinion.... I hope I'm wrong.

bros na the truth na. Let's n0t pretend because the film tries to portray african culture, it has no flaws. We say far worse abt Nigerian films.

i don't really kn0w or care abt her being miscast. She was fresh off an oscar b4 she was cast. I n0tice that am0ng MCU lead actors. They cast stars m0st times to head their franchise.
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Minemrys: 12:09am On Jan 03, 2019
Come to think that Jas0n M0m0a was rejected for Drax in Guardians of the galaxy and Gal Gadot for the role of Nebula.

Those costumes weren't just thought up without research.. So if they were ugly, it wasn't the fault of the filmmakers..

Halle berry also had an Oscar before the shït-show that was Catwoman.....


The super_saiyan mode on Captain marvel looks very good though, and who doesn't love Sam Jackson as Nick fury.... I'll probably still see it in theatres

Most of you can't even run an objective film critique. You just have problems with movies because they weren't done how you wanted it, or because it's from a 'rival' studio..

That's what marvel fanboys fail to understand.

Marvel depends on heavy campaign to hit the mega bucks unlike DC that just role out movies.

Currently, marvel is spending huge money marketing captain marvel, while DC ain't doing much campaign on Shazam.

Well, am so glad that they got it right this time with aquaman. The campaign, China reception, storyline, CGI etc were on point.

What is this. Dc just role out movie without marketing

I'm glad he rejected it.

I was interested in Drax after Guardians 1.
I thought Guardians 2 would explore his background a little and how his family died and how he's dealing with grief and his desire for vengeance.

Instead James Gunn reduced Drax to just a comic relief.
The cheap clown that should make you laugh.

Marvel did not do justice to Drax.

I'm glad Jason turned down the role, Aquaman and Lobo suits him better.

That movie tried so much to imitate the African culture as a whole but failed so much at doing it. The costumes were ugly, yes, I will say that again as a proud black man. Crucify me if you want. The movie was just a wannabe "cash grab" to falsely project Africa in Hollywood.

Have you written a short story that accurately depicts the African culture as 'a proud black man'?..
A movie isn't a failure because tonyspike of nairaland says it is.. You people just act like you know it all, when in reality, you do not know the first thing about film making. The studio succeeded at giving a significant recognition to your culture, something your African filmmakers have failed at doing. The internet articles you read have succeeded in making you believe you have vast knowledge in filmmaking..

Atleast the Hollywood critics have better knowledge of 'their' industry. But the guys here feel internet articles are the prerequisite of being a critique, people who can't even produce a five minute short film. Trust me, you'd stop all this nitpicking if you're asked to take a lap in a tiny pool of filmmaking..

I use to mock the costume, but then the millennial looking ones in Thor movies comes to mind... And Asgard is supposed to be far more advanced than Earth.

The best costumes are for the heroes i guess!!!

I'm not concerned about Hollywood critics, na we Nigerians wey dey feel like we too know. Just imagine some people trying to state how a company like Warner Bros should do business, or belittle the achievements of Disney studio.. People who aren't even qualified to tell a small indie production company what to do.. The other one is criticizing them for atleast trying to portray a culture different from theirs.

Tell me, have you ever watched "Coming to America"? Now, that's a movie that did a better job at projecting African culture back in 1988. Black Panther with all the cinematic and technical advantage of this Era did a very poor job at projecting African culture. I stand by my words, bro.

If I have watched an older and superior movie that projected the African culture better, then I have a right to critique a more recent movie doing that. I don't pander to a movie because everyone says it is the best. It is my culture and I deserve to comment on how it is appropriated in movies and the media in general. The new generation of African-Americans that watched the movie were fooled into thinking that is how Africa is. Of course, they have a right to accept whatever the media gives them because they have little or no knowledge of what true African culture is.

it's interesting u lecture us abt the c0mplex and rigorous nature of film making, but u d0n't waste a minute bashing DC films.
