CharleyBright: HBO, Showtime, FX, BBC one and two, Amazon Prime, Hulu, Cinemax (HBO owned), FX, AMC, Starz, and Netflix have completely monopolized my choices in TV series. Any shows that ain't from any of the aforementioned, I would pay no mind to. I see them (PG13 TV shows) as trash for the most part, and rightly so. Their dialogue and scene apart from being tamed, rely more on shock and awe factors to draw the audience. To 'em, good ratings are more important than a good story. However, Cable channels like HBO, Showtime, AMC, and streaming service, Netflix go for slow burners (my favorite kind of shows). Slow burners just like the name implies don't care for the melodrama, rather, it's more for realism than anything else. Slow burners usually start off slow-paced, and gradually settle into a rhythm, the rich plot draws one in, the fantastic story telling keeps one invested, the complexity invigorating. Their dynamism and depth set them apart and place them on such high pedestal that run-of-the-mill TV shows cannot hope to compete. Their educative value is 2nd to none as well. Slow burners like Breaking Bad, True Detective, Fargo, Better Call Saul, Boardwalk Empire, Peaky Blinders, Line of Duty, etc, are the pinnacle of television. The best of the best. Anyone that doesn't like them is on a long thing. 1 Like |

KoiceReloaded: A glaring way of you agreeing because you know you have no other point to trump the truth. Face it, if The Mountain gets hit with a rocket launcher, he'd be dead but Aquaman survived it. There's no comparison between them. |

Beorn: Are you mad? Killmonger is one of the most sympathetic villains in comic book movies. You should be ashamed as a black african that you cannot understand the deep motivations of killmonger in the BP movie. Killmonger grew up on hate as it was stated I the movie. He grew up as an abandoned black kid in the ghetto with no parents. His African tribe neglected him while his American roots consisted of racism and poverty. He fought wars for a country that did not respect his humanity and his race. Killmonger even delivered one Of the most iconic lines in comic book history- "Just bury me in the ocean with my ancestors who jumped from ships, 'cause they knew death was better than bondage" A lot of Nigerians do not understand anything about racism. Shame. 3 Likes |

Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Beorn: 10:10pm On Apr 17, 2019 |
JeromeBlack: Oga, all these one na epistle. Nothing about Killmonger's upbringing that's special. What's so deep about his motivations that we haven't seen before? Abeg, BP had a simple Nollywood-esque plot and no matter of iconic lines makes Killmonger special. He's a one-dimensional villain. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Beorn: 10:13pm On Apr 17, 2019 |
JeromeBlack, you'd go dig up my post on BP when I first rated it. I am very pleased about the making of the movie. I recognized its significance to the black race, it's cultural significance to the blacks. But I won't come here to act like it had a fantastic plot that blew me away just because I'm black. That BS. |

MATILDA (1996)...8/10 GENRE:Comedy, Family, Fantasy Wow!! the concept/premise of the movie & Matilda's dad popular catchphrase( I'm smart your dumb, I'm big your little, I'm right your wrong and there's nothing you can do about it) Kinda gave me that nostalgic feeling i use to have as a kid way back then, when the movie aired on Sundays on channels TV. The story and message, was quite fabulous, the acting was very good. It was truly a fun, entertaining & nostalgic ride for me. 1 Like 1 Share |

The extent at which some people on this thread fantasize on all this imaginary superhero dazzle and baffles me.... some of you would even believe all those make believe DC and Marvel actors posses those abilities for real.... Shake my head in utter disbelief... please, let's entertain ourselves in peace and stop all these childish superhero arguments. 1 Like |

iuwe: No Batman was clearly the leader here, that's why he had a contingency plan for all the JL members, he was no longer trusted, that's why there was a vote if he should stay or leave. Even Superman voted for Batman to be the leader of The JL. |
