JUSTICE LEAGUE

Hello All,

The wait is over.  It’s been 20 years after the death of Superman.  The cold winter seasons never seem to go away… The World as we know it, has turned into dark depression.  The vigilante known as the Batman graces the silver-screens once more in DC’s third installment in Justice League.

I will start with a confession: I am really not that into comic books.  Although I have long-since come to accept that I am a fully-formed old-man…, I was a late comer to the comic book party.  Growing up, it was only Voltron legendary defender, Super-Ted, and Danger Mouse (and, to a lesser extent, Spiderman, Batman) on NTA that drew my attention to the glamorous clamour of the world of superheroes.

After viewing the title in an Exhibitors screening yesterday, I can confirm that Justice League will hit the $1 Billion GBO forecast as it has everything from comedy that keeps you smiling like you just won the lottery ticket, to breath taking action scenes.  One thing you need to do when watching “Justice League” is to forget BVS in the franchise.  As far as I am concerned, BVS never happened.

It’s safe to say that; DC has left no stone unturned and have done a brilliant job in bringing all the superheroes characters from Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, to snarky speedster Barry Allen/Flash, to sassy fish-whisperer Arthur Curry/Aquaman and surly human machine Victor Stone/Cyborg.   

So, I am going to leave you with this; I don't know who you are, but whatever you're looking for, you should move on from mourning from BVS.  

Whatever the case may be, however the week is going, everyone needs to see this film with a little relaxation time.  It remains our pleasure to offer you that and so much more, because your comfort remains our priority. Until next week stay blessed.

THOR: RAGNAROK

Hello All,

My father once said, "A wise man never seeks out war..." "But he must always be ready for it!"

Welcome to Asgard week 45.

I used to leave a theatre after seeing a highly anticipated movie, specifically a sequel, and be so revved up about what I saw that I would declare that movie to be the best of the franchise.  Until my opinion balanced out and I had a more well-rounded take #afterseeingcalabarsweekendreports.  For that reason, one would think i would steer away from that mindset right? *coughs* 

At this point everyone has come to know and love all of the characters in the marvel universe, if you don’t agree, then I can confirm that you are not human and you should change your name spongebob lol.  

The stakes have become tremendously high.  Kingdoms are at their knees, Asgard has fallen to the goddess of death and the only characters who can save the day are; the God of Thunder, an adopted/deported/excommunicated prince of Asgard, a giant green monster under emotional stress, seeking asylum, badly in need of anger management classes and a new character known as Valkyrie…. 

The tension was very high, the comedy was brilliantly executed in this franchise blockbuster and YES i can honestly say that this title had me on the edge of my seat.

WE ARE HERE BENIN

Hello All,

''The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers'': all great powers fall.  The issue, therefore, is not ''if'' the planet Earth will end but ''when'' and how? Do I have your attention? Then let’s begin. 

Welcome to Benin. #Empirefightsback

The land grew rich during the 16th and 17th centuries due to trade within southern Nigeria, as well as through trade with Europeans, mostly in pepper and ivory.

On 17 February 1897, Benin City fell to the British Empire in the "Punitive Expedition” a 1,200-strong British force, under the command of Admiral Sir Harry Rawson, conquered and razed the city.  One of the greatest empires was no more. 

Over the Centuries, new occupants in the state known as the Indomie/money fall on you generation.. lol, have hidden in the shadows in search of allies to create an unstoppable force.  The search is over.  On the 24th October 2017, Filmhouse Benin under the command of a new General of the industry “Aina” with the help of over a 125 years of cinema commandos behind him, they will open the doors to one of the greatest empire known to man and will come face to face with a new global threat.  It is a force known as Geostorm.  

They will fight with silver screens/3D glasses, not with cutlass/arrows.  They will fight with 7.1/dolby atmos technology, not with the power of deities like (Amadioha).  They will fight with content genres like action, comedy, drama and not with pounded yam and vegetable.  They will conquer and raise the city to shine in gold, they will restore the glory and pride of the people of the Edo Kingdom.   

If there's any movie theater that has successfully shown quality service and movie presentation, it's Filmhouse theaters.

So, as I often say! whatever the case may be, however the week is going, everyone needs a little relaxation time as often as possible and it remains our pleasure to offer you that and so much more, because your comfort remains our priority. Until next week stay blessed.
