Hollywood is making live-action version of everything, it seems.

A live-version movie of Tom and Jerry is been planned, and apparently Michael Pena is going to play Tom.

Maybe it's just me, but I've never viewed Tom as the antagonist. I mean, Jerry is the one that tries to steal things that don't belong to him. Tom is only doing what he is supposed to do, stop a thieving mouse from stealing his owner's foods. What is wrong with that?

Thank God you're among those like myself waiting for the movie to drop. When you see it, drop your appraisal sharply so I would know what to expect when I go to the cinema to see it.

If the movie doesn't live up to my expectations from your appraisal, I'll boycott seeing it.


This really irritates me. This is my opinion.

When it comes to blockbuster movies of high calibre and hype, I do not wait for critic reviews. I watch it myself. No need for someone to review it for me.

I wonder what would make me listen to anyone before I watch an xmen movie. When I know that there would be guaranteed high production value (whether or not the plot is rubbish), why would I wait for critics. I rather watch and make my own thoughts on it myself.

It is like me waiting for game of thrones season 8 review before I watch it. Granted, season 8 was crap but I still was the one that made up my mind.

Tom is the good guy.

But we humans have a thing for the underdog. The mouse is a hungry underdog and has to be smart to deal with the cat.

The greatest grievance I had with JL was the way Superman came into the scene and beat the hell out of Steppenwolf. The beating was so childish I disliked JL instantly.


Take a look at Thanos, with or with the Infinity Stones, he's a formidable foe. It took a while to defeat him. Not one guy beating the main villain as if a training match. Nonsense script.

At first, yeah, but it got to a point where Jerry practically thumbs his nose at Tom, like he's the owner of the house and Tom is the unwanted visitor. It's irritating.

I like to make my own independent opinion on certain things. Like In TV series, I usually wait till I can read reviews, but in movies, nah. I don't mind a few spoilers here and there, but ultimately, I like to watch everything first hand, at least before I can read any reviews.

Cancelled after season 3.

Starz are notorious for cancelling shows at their prime. The only popular shows they have ever completed are Spartacus and Black Sails.

Honestly, I'm not too hyped on Warrior right now, cuz I know the show's_fucked three ways from sunday. I'm giving it only 2 seasons, then bye bye. Yup, Starz are that predictable.

Sorry my mistake.
Been so long.



In other news, I was minding my business on the forum front page when I saw a man being lynched.
Being the ever compassionate person I am, I interceded on his behalf and pleaded for mercy cos the beating was getting too much and someone might give up the ghost.

When the aggressor finally listened to my pleas, lo and behold, who did I see at the receiving end of the whopping?


Seeing is believing, see for yourself grin

Much ado about nothing.

See, when it comes to movies or series, there are some people whose RATINGS/opinions usually sync with mine on Nairaland and helps guide me in my download/seeing of movies. For example, Koice, I tend to enjoy his movies suggestions as they align with mine. He has suggested some series/movies which i didn't like as well.

Like sometime last year, when Koice was suggesting series for some people, he avoided The Blacklist, I didn't know why then, but I decided to download 5 seasons of it and after 3 episodes, I regretted not asking him if the series was worth it. I still rue that decision till today.

So when IB, whose ratings/appraisal of movies has always tallied with mine, said she's going to see the movie, I decided to use her appraisal to judge if the movie is worth me going to cinema to see it.

Two of us are different. We don't behave alike; while you may still go ahead to see the latest Hellboy despite it being critically adjudged a failure, I won't try it. I watch movies based mostly on ratings.

Hate to rain on your parade, but JeromeBlack is right on the money. As someone that actually lives there, I can authoritatively tell you the cops hate black people, and the health care system is very expensive indeed. If you don't have medical insurance, you're_fucked.

I wish I can reach across the internet and slap that Trump asslicker that quoted him. angry

I don't care who is right or wrong.

The reason I brought that here is the fact that had that argument occurred right here on this thread, JeromeBlack will have started his whole I schooled abroad and lived abroad sermon, hell, he will even find a way to involve innocent Kazeem grin

I prefer live-action films to animation because they're more realistic, but yeah, a remake is a recipe for disaster.
