I can't believe they really did that, that is bonkers.
Well, at least 2 of Roman emperors were Africans, they were not black, but they were not white either, mostly likely they were middle-easterners.
I did not expect wicked doing this well, since joker 2, another musical, did so poorly.
Also about it is doing so much better than Gladiator II, maybe audience has changed, men have given up on watching movies.
We don't really do thanksgivings in Australia, but cheers.
I am sorry, I only remember very few people on this board.
And no, I am not a Muslim, up until this year I have never been in a mosque before.
I was not born rich, I got to where I am through budgeting, saving and investing. Nothing out of the ordinary.
I still live modestly, if you meet me on street you won't think I am rich. I only buy cloth during Christmas discount season. I only made an exception this year because I went to Istanbul for mosques, blue mosque among them, and I did not know you have to be fully clothed to visit mosques until right before the trip, and I only brought shorts and T-shirts.
But the investment was necessary, because when in Dubai I went to Abu Dhabi for Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, which also requires you to wear long sleeve shirts and pants.
Even I have driver's license I never owned a car (not a good investment).
I retired more than 10 years ago. When my colleagues of the last job met me on street, they still ask me:"Are you doing OK?"
Because I think they don't believe it is possible for someone like me, someone just like themselves, to retire in 40s.
I offered to give them investment advice, none took up on the offer.
Just a few days ago I met one of them when shopping, and when I told him I traveled to 7 different countries this year, half of the year I was overseas, and I ate caviar in Dubai, truffles in Rome, Paella in Madrid, clotted cream in London, and the guy probably still thought I made that up.
I think partially because if they admitted it could be done, then they would be failures.
Yes, that is why I chose the name. It was the model number of my favoured pair of boots, also the code name of an aircraft (though they changed it), also it is very short and nobody used it before.
Once you go robot you don't go back.
We are talking about 23 hours maximum battery life (idle), about 4 hours for tasks that are "dangerous, repetitive and boring".
All right. It looks I am even wrong about that.
Just watched a review called "Gladiator 2 Turned It's Back On Masculinity": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uipOb3PVik
Now I am quite sure I am not going to watch it.
Unless I am really really bored of course.
One thing I will give it is that I think it is male oriented entertainment with a lot of actions.
It is actually very rare these days and people have a hunger for it.
I think that is the reason a quite silly movie like Deadpool 3 was praised like Oscar worthy.
