Or rather, it is very much overrated and appreciated by people who hate to engage in philosophical discussions.

If you dont like to discuss or argue, rate your movie and move on.

What is people's problem with other people's argument? Is it your intellectual superiority?

By your definition, philosophy applies to what I stated about the movies.

Move along.

there is no philosophy behind twilight because it has no rational justification. it's a fantasy. mumu.

Well, this is some bullshit stereotyping. I know very intelligent people that watch reality TV. Nollywood is not a genre. It's an entire movie industry with a lot of diverse offerings. What of the Americans that watch Hollywood movies exclusively and still favour movies with simplistic plots?



Nollywood is a genre. 98 percent of Nigerian films are drama with romance, comedy or religion blended in as sub-genre. Or a varying mixture of any combination of them.

Drama is the overarching genre. The remaining two percent is horror movie.


Nigerian movies are mostly trash. And studies have shown that you are what you consume. People with a greater exposure to trash tv are affected negatively in terms of IQ.



It is not just a stereotype

You do realise that fantasy itself is a concept and that philosophy deals with a lot of abstract thinking?


DandeNumeruno:

simply put. philosophy is rational justification of answers to the most fundamental questions and the creation of concepts.

Lazy empty minded foolish yoots. Great minds discuss ideas, small minds discuss people and vacuous minds discuss movies. With all the books and knowledge in the world, some people waste their lives watching movies that will add no value whatsoever to their lives

What a wasted generation.

That’s how a misguided arrogant person who does not watch movies will refer to movie watchers.

This right here is the problem of Nigeria. Ignorant people in power looking down at the educated ones and laughing.

Oga. Reality and rationality are not opposites. Numbers do not exist but they are an abstract concept used for counting and measuring.

It is very telling of your education that you do not realise that there is philosophy in fiction. That life imitates art and art imitates life.

You are lacking in knowledge. Educate yourself

I seriously doubt you despise JeromeBlack as much as I do but this morning, he is stating facts and reasons while you are just churning out insults upon insults.



When it is time to troll, let's troll responsibly, las las na ban go end am but when it is time for serious discussion, please endeavour to state your opinion responsibly too.


Logic007 won this argument by a landslide by the way.

Oh, I see.

However, you have gotten confused over my point.

People who watch Bollywood and Nollywood AS THEIR MAIN TYPE OF MOVIE tend to be less intelligent people. Not everyone who watches nollywood is dull or has poor taste in movies but they are in the minority.


This same logic works for people who constantly watch reality tv. Low brow entertainment affects your IQ. These are facts. there are studies on this.

Joker is not overrated.

Joaquin Phoenix's acting was clearly special. It clearly showed a lot of dedication and hardwork towards the character. The tragedy was compelling and the message about mental illness is clear.

The overall rating might be subjective. However, the movie is objectively not boring. It would be like arguing that inception is not an intelligent film.

I'm sorry, if you find joker 2019 to be boring or overrated (note that the film faced a lot if criticism), you clearly have a bad taste in movies. Period.

There will always be people who want to feel special by irrationally going against public consensus just for its sake. There are people who dislike avengers movies. Those people are nothing but trolls and flat earth level losers.
Of course Phoenix performance was great.....the movie being boring is subjective..
Are you saying that anyone who doesn't agree with your taste in a movie is a troll or a flat earth level losers?

1. People who have nollywood as their main genre of movies tend to favour movies with simplistic plots and overacting. Drama. That same logic works with people that seriously watch reality tv, they tend to be less intelligent.

2. Not liking joker is not the problem. The problem is the reason for not liking it and how it is expressed.

I dont like romance movies because I am not romantic as a personal bias. However, I will still applaud a good romance film. I did not like 500 days of summer but I will always point out that it was a good movie.

Now, the people saying that the joker is boring or overrated cannot get out of their own personal bias. You might not like the joker but dont bring it down based solely on your own bias.
A movie can still be good and be overrated at the same time....
Is Joker worth all the hype? maybe not.
Was it a good movie? probably yes.

Adam Driver is a raw talent, there is no doubt, but my god, homeboy is effing unattractive

I think he's the ugliest A-lister in Hollywood right now.
