Foreign Tabloids Mock Nigerian Movie "Spider Girl' In Hilarious Movie Review

This is what you get when you produce a Hollywood movie on a Nollywood budget. When i first saw the poster i thought it was a joke, not until I stumbled on this movie review by some foreign tabloids. While reading the review, i was stuck between cringing and laughing...I opted for laughter and i haven't stopped since
Read the rib cracking review below:
Comic fans around the world are waiting with bated breathe to see what Tom Holland’s performance as Spider-Man is going to be like – but the poor guy may have been outshone before he’s even webbed up his first bad guy.
Meet 'Spider-Girl', a gender bent, copyright infringing adaptation of everyone’s favourite wall-crawler straight from Nigeria’s version of Hollywood, Nollywood.
As I’m sure you can tell from the trailer Spider-Girl's more than capable of going up against Marvel’s heavy hitters, swinging (or flying, it’s hard to tell) through the jungle and battling criminals with her magical ability to produce cartoon string, or webs... Again it’s hard to tell.
If anything, the real stars of the show are the powerful screams from civilians startled by her presence. It’s the kind of shrill Daredevil could hear fromHell’s Kitchen.
Okay let’s be honest' the CGI’s not the best and the story looks … a bit incoherent. I think it’s about Spider-Girl stopping criminals but I couldn’t tell you what their crimes are. Either way I’m sure the villains in that car that she mercilessly threw into the jungle deserved their fiery death.
Anyway, judging by the last trailer for Civil War Captain America’s team doesn’t have their own Spider-Person so who knows, maybe Spider-Girl could travel over the Atlantic and battle Tom Holland’s, slightly more polished looking, Spider-Man.

Queen Elizabeth II becomes longest-reigning monarch on a day of characteristic modesty

She accepted it was a “special day” as she became our longest-reigning monarch, but the Queen was, as ever, the very embodiment of understatement. Appearing rather bashful about the attention being lavished on her as she made history, Her Majesty made only a passing reference to her entry in the record books, insisting: “It is not one to which I have ever aspired.” While everyone around her was, quite rightly, paying homage to her remarkable achievement, the Queenmade it clear that, as far as she was concerned, all she had done was to stay alive and healthy. “Inevitably, a long life can pass by many milestones,” she said. “My own is no exception. But I thank you all and the many others at home and overseas for your touching messages of great kindness.” Queen Victoria, the woman whose record she surpassed, was not mentioned in the Queen’s brief speech at Tweedbank railway station in the Borders, where Her Majesty was more preoccupied with the business at hand, namely opening the longes...

The Economist article on the fight against Boko Haram

Read this very interesting article by The Economiston the fight against Boko Haram and the alleged multiple deaths of Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau. The article below.. How many times can one man die? At least four, in the case of Abubakar Shekau, the slippery leader of Boko Haram. Nigerian security forces celebrated his demise in 2009, 2013 and 2014, only for him to pop up again, disconcertingly animate, on camera. When Chad’s president said in August that his troops had killed Mr Shekau, the jihadist was resurrected once again, this time with a voice recording. “Woe unto liars that had claimed I am dead,” said the voice. “Nobody can kill me.” This relatively mild-mannered dispatch raised questions of its own. Most of what is known about Africa’s most notorious terrorist derives from his gun-wielding, slave-touting videos. If he were still at large, would he not release a film in his usual more robust style? Most probably, he is indeed alive. Whether he is injured is impossible...
