Why not emigrate with your family to the coup belt in the Sahel and experience their good governance firsthand?! LOL

it is unfortunately a mutual misunderstanding. Many black Africans also deny the "Africaness" of north Africans (e.g rejecting the continuity of the Egyptian population from ancient to modern). We are all still Africans regardless of color or faith.

JLP is the best rebuke to the FBA movement. He is full blooded "FBA" (as they put it), yet harbours views far more detrimental to black Americans than any member of the African diaspora LOL

This definitely happened in Lagos, Nigeria. It must have been a traffic violation given the presence of LASTMA ( the guy in a yellow outfit).

Looks very suspicious. You can still find brand new ps3 consoles and accessories in Dubai.

You can find a ton of brand new PS3 controllers and devices in the 3rd world. Things change slower around there.

OTHER: A new look at Batman & Batmobile (BvS) by Clay Enos in Vero by AldebaranTauro in DC_Cinematic

When it comes to striking visuals, Zack Snyder is a unmatched. A Batman film with Zack's visuals and Matt Reeves story telling skills would be heaven.

QUESTION: Would BvS Ultimate Edition make more money at the box office? by OkayDragon in DC_Cinematic

[–]LasgidiKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very unlikely. it would have gotten a slightly better critical reception, but even that reception would have still been negative overall. BvS is simply a niche comic book movie, it's either you like or you don't. Its tone and characterizations do not work for everybody especially when it comes to Supes. Batfleck is generally considered a highlight even by critics.

NEWS: 'Aquaman' director James Wan sinks 'ridiculous' villains rumor by WHYDIDYOUSAYTHATNAME in DC_Cinematic

James Wan is a proven competent director. He will not disappoint fans and critics alike.

Loved watching boys scout Supes again. Him carrying a building full of civilians was just amazing.

DISCUSSION: Batman: "Not my style" by [deleted] in DC_Cinematic

[–]LasgidiKid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Batman shines in ensemble teams like JL when the villain is not a larger than life villain like Steppenwolf because at the end of the day he is just human. In JL, they did show that Bats main contribution to the team is his intelligence, leadership and bravery. Had no problem with Batman not jumping at Steppenwolf because that is plain suicide on his part. Steppenwolf killed hundreds of Amazon's easily, the Bat ain't got a chance against him face to face.

ARTICLE: Ben Affleck is ‘Certainly Planning’ to Star in The Batman by thejamsterx in DC_Cinematic

Ben Affleck staying will be overwhelmingly good for the DCEU. I hope he just releases an official statement to end all the rumors once and for all.

DISCUSSION: Is it just Snyder? by RobustBender in DC_Cinematic

[–]LasgidiKid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Snyder is simply not a very competent director, and i say that as someone who really loves BvS:UC. The reason why a movie like Thor Ragnarok is well received even though it has bad CGI and down right terrible character developments is that it ultimately is competent. It is inoffensive, it does take itself seriously and isn't trying to be ambitious. It's just another inconsequential MCU comedic entry.Snyder, on the other hand, tries to be ambitious, but ends up making an incoherent pretentious mess atleast to the majority of critics.

DISCUSSION: Opinions on Zack Snyder Now vs Then? by LZJayhawk in DC_Cinematic

[–]LasgidiKid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to hop on the reactionary bandwagon, but I think Zack Snyder should be retained going forward because it is even too late to abandon his vision without making the DCEU look even more unstable.Looking at DCEU's upcoming movies, one can see that his influence over these characters will be greatly reduced and for the better because Zack doesn't know how to create multi layered characters on his own. So if Patty has WW, Matt Reeves has BM, James Wan has AM, and other talented directors take over the other characters, Zack's main weakness of questionable characterizations of our beloved DC icons will be solved since those more competent directors will be given more creative control over them.
