I was actually going to suggest he should get the main act for deadpool.. that would suit him compared to being batman.


the only thing that might work in him playing deadpool's main act is that he's not funny

LMAO, Deadpool? grin grin

nope. he's not suited for the role at all. you gotta be naturally funny to play deadpool.

imho he's more suited to play batman or deathstroke.

DEAD END (2003)....7/10

SPOILERS ALERT!!!

it has it's funny moments but mostly, it's creepy asf.

you were right mekaprime, it's a mind fvck.

you will hit a dead end trying to make sense of it literally, so the best way to make sense of the whole thing is to take it as an allegory.

imho all that transpired in the movie is a symbolism for death.

this is my theory; the father dozed off and crashed his car into another car. the woman in white and her baby were the occupants of the car frank crashed into. everyone died instantly except marion (frank's daughter) and her foetus.

the never ending road symbolizes their souls in a state of limbo after they had died in the car accident.

the black hearse symbolizes the grim reaper collecting the souls from their deceased bodies.

marion survived because the grim reaper spared her life.

am still not entirely sure why the doctor and the never ending road share the name "marcott", but the best explanation i could muster up is marion must have overheard the name in her state of comma and somehow attached it to the road.

the mid credit scene got me stumped tho. it revealed that everything that transpired in the film weren't only allegorical, but really did happen too.

yep, a mind fvck of epic proportions.

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!
Exactly what i thought, though as I saw Marion at the hospital, i assumed that all that transpired in the movie was all in her head as a result of the comatose state she was in.

But then again, that credit scene said otherwise. Believe me, it sure did leave me in an awe state...

I saw some other good mind-fvck movies online, when am done with em', I'd sure drop my reviews.

I am solidly behind you. This peeps just want to hype Adkins that doesn't even deserve such hype just cos they are his fans.

Apart from martial arts wetin Adkins Sabi?
The Batman Character isn't all about the fighting and all. It's more about the intelligence, quick thinking, Playboy, master of disguise, leadership, emotions.

Peeps be shouting Adkins is good at brooding, as if it's only brooding and martial arts Bruce Wayne is good at.

If Adkins like make him audition 250 times WB will never choose him as Batman., Period. They ain't that stupid.

Lolz... What i was trying to tell his fans was that Adkins becoming Batman was just wishful thinking, cause it ain't happening. The fact is, he doesn't have what they want, so, they don't want him & they never will.
The word on the street was that they wanted an older Batman that's why they choose Affleck over him despite him auditioning for the role, aren't they basically in the same age grade, what's mere 3-4 years age difference. If that is true, then that was WB politely telling him " we don't need you".

Abeg that apart. Have you caught up to speed with the Vikings yet?

Lol! It's like people telling Messi to go to another club before they can yield to him.

I think, foremostly, he's a martial artist before anything, he probably didn't even went to acting school.

All his movies I've seen were about combat.
He sticks to what he know best. And he's demn good at it, nobody can deny that.

Almost all of the best martial artist are poor actor.

SEARCHING and UPGRADE and THE DESCENT are indie, not b movies

haven't seen BELKO EXPERIMENT and HICHKI so i reserve my opinions.

you're confusing b films with their indie counterpart. they are not the same. google their differences, will you?

netflix is currently littered with b movies.







Yeah you're right, i sure did mix things up. Gracias for the clarification. The two you claimed not to have seen, are also indie & not B Movies. But B movies doesn't always mean a compromise in storyline, the compromise is basically from the visual effects or cast as a result of it's low budget.

as in ehn.

making a good movie takes a lot of time and patience. there are entirely many varying factors between projects, logistics, crew, capital, etc.

typically the longer you spend on pre-production, ironing out the details, shooting tests and getting everyone on the same page, the smoother things will go.

nollywood filmmakers have a long way to go.

when you shoot above your budget, the storyline will take a hit, it's inevitable. when the production value is low, everything looks and feel cheap, as opposed to a medium to high budget film.

Hope you have an inkling of what word on the street means? It means rumor. A rumor is a story that is passed from person to person but has not been proven to be true.
I picked up the story somewhere online. And in my write up, i clearly stated, if this were true...So, i never owned it, i was barely reporting it, thus, it ain't my fallacy.
Let's just agree to disagree & forget this Adkins argument.

you knew it to be unproven and yet it didn't prevent you from parroting it here, when the truth is a mere clicks of your keyboards away.

dude let's be honest with ourselves please.

you chose to parrot the "rumour" instead of the facts because it suited your narrative much more.

Saving Private Ryan 10/10

What a ride! Perfect film, undoubtedly knocks off Dunkirk as my best war film yet. I especially like that the main focus of the movie was on the characters and not the war itself, and that it took time to breath occasionally and before the final conflict.

What an engrossing story, accompanied by humour, sacrifice, tragedy and love.

That beach sequence was something of extraterrestrial proportions.

I'm not one to fancy too much action, I just don't know why 10 minutes into the film I felt bored. Maybe I'll have to go back and actually watch it for real.

Relax bro. Take a deep breath in, & exhale slowly through the mouth. It all has to do with movies & actors, it's nothing serious, it's not a doctorate project/thesis nor defense that i should start perusing the whole world wide web, seeking for which is a fact & which is made up.

Whether or not Adkins becomes Batman adds nothing new to my life, so why should i be bothered. Life is too short, try not to let things like this get you rankled. if you must be rankled about anything or anyone, let it be by our clueless GCFR & our useless politicians who are hell-bent on draining the public coffers as though it were their family inheritance.

A fine morning to you & have a splendid day.

Glad to hear that we are getting the remaining 10 episodes, i thought the show had ended abruptly. But December is too far ooo.

That episode was very much painful, Bjorn should have just sought for Rollo's help, they honestly stood no fighting chance against the Rus. And to think that Ivar struck the deadly blow was highly disheartening, it was swift, but painful as hell.

Let's just take solace in the fact that he's currently drinking ale from curved hornes. That he shall not enter Odin's hall with fear, that he shall join Thor, Loki, Freyja, Ragnar, & Lagertha in Valhalla & together, they shall all bask in their tales of triumph...All hail Bjorn....King Bjorn Ironside.
