What a year it's been in the movie industry this 2025! So many things happened. It was a series of unexpected events. Top of that list is the iconic, the undefeated, the so-good-you-watch-it-on-repeat! K-Pop Demon Hunters Source: Savoy Before we continue, I want to answer your question. Yes, this review is pretty tardy for an animation that came out five months ago. However, fans don't seem to have gotten over it. The world is still talking about it. So I like to think that I'm just on time. For anyone yet to watch this tasty slice of gimbap , which is very unlikely if you have little siblings, K-Pop Demon Hunters is a musical and action animation. It was released as a Sony Spectacular on Netflix in June 20, 2025 . That glorious day saw the birth of a new era for Kpop, the Golden Era. Produced by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans , K-Pop Demon Hunters stars a Kpop girl band with singers Rumi , Mira and Zoey who have another life behind the stage. Not Power Rangers. They ar...

BLACK PANTHER; A REVIEW

-

I remember sitting in my classroom sometime in 2018 listening to my classmates who were Marvel fans talking about Marvel's latest enterprise.

That wasn't surprising. Everyone was buzzing about Black Panther.

Except me. 😒

As if the curiosity of what this movie was about wasn't enough, my family starts talking about it 😫

Then I grabbed an opportunity that would change my life forever...

I watched Black Panther. 😌

What words are there to express the excitement of seeing Marvel's logo?

What curiosity on witnessing T'Chaka's first scene!

Then the fight scene in Sambisa forest with T'Chala and Okoye? Legendary!

As the reels turn, we get exposed to an imaginary African race (I thought they were real 😩) that is about to crown its newest king, our king, T'Chala.

From the beginning to the end, you'll agree with me that Chadwick Boseman's role as T'Chala was well picked. The interesting thing about it is that Chad never had to audition for the role. Marvel chose him!

What an honour 🤯

Marvel has many other super heroes that we love; Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor (Strongest avenger 🥲) but Black Panther just wins first place in our hearts.

First of all, it uplifts and presents Africa and its culture as something beyond barbaric. It showed *Africa* to the world!

It was Marvel trying to tell everyone that we have something they don't. Not just vibranium, but melanin 🤴🏿

So kudos to the African race. Be proud and stand tall.

Another trait of Black Panther is its costumes and graphic displays. Marvel's make up and costume crew really took it to the next level with the outfits. The movie even won an award for it.

Talking about awards, Black Panther is Marvel's most successful production at the Oscars.

Fun fact. The story line of Black Panther was initially a "James Bond defeats the bad guys desturbing his kingdom." One of those bad guys would have been a Spider Man villain.

Due to circumstances (which we are grateful for) Ryan Coogle, the director, had to rewrite the plot. Don't know how the first would have turned out, but I love Black Panther as it is.

Coogle as director brought us characters like Michael B. Jordan (Eric Killmonger) and Danai Gurira (Okoye, head of the Dora Milaje)

Remember the part where Killmonger shocks T'Chala by yelling back in his own language? While T'Chala's wondering how Killmonger can speak it, I'm wondering what language that is.

The cast use a number of African languages. The major language however was Xhosa, a South African language that was spoken by Nelson Mandela.

Black Panther broke waves in movie theatres. Even Saudi Arabia had to lift its 30 years ban on theatres to let T'Chala touchdown in his vibranium powered aircraft.

Black Panther is loved and appreciated to this day not just for the adventures it gave us, but also for the legacy it gave Chadwick Boseman. His reputation as actor and king was so dear Marvel positively refused to recast him at his demise.

Thus, Black Panther 2 began with the mourning cry of Wakanda.

Although he left us before he could receive full credit for his legendary role, he will be remembered so long as we keep up the chant,

WAKANDA FOREVER! 🙅🏿‍♀️🙅🏿‍♂️

He lives on...

Mara took a deep breath. She fingered her mouse and pulled the cursor to the left side of the screen. She touched the icon, "Submit now." As usual, it was beeping rhythmically, copying the pounding heart beats of tense students who sweated over their exam questions. Mara smiled at the icon and flexed her fingers before she clicked on it for the last time, as a year one student. The air was fresh and sweet as she descended the stairs of Nnamdi Azikiwe library and stepped through the large door. She breathed it in and smiled. "Freedom," she mumbled. With her friend, she rushed to the front of the library where her other classmates were assembled. In the middle of the gathering was Steve, the class rep. Everyone looked at his grin in anticipation. The he opened his mouth. "No longer freshers!" Steve shouted with his knuckle thrust in the air and the students cheered. They caused quite a scene as they screamed, danced and sang, "One year don waka! We stil...

Featuring Agugua Anastasia Chiazokam Profile: Jacksonite, class of 2025. "Lights, camera, action!" Ifeanyi gave the call and his colleague leaned and peered into the camera while Ifeanyi looked ahead. Seated before the crew in PG building were two Jacksonites. Nick, the first, was the tall, dark and handsome leader of the 025 media team. He was the host of the show, Talk with 025. To fit into his role, he was dressed in his departmental uniform. Also, it was a Monday. Stasia however was dressed in black palazzo pants and a beautiful vintage shirt. Her hairdo was a bunch of colourful plaits packed in a ponytail. Her dark rimmed glasses rested on her pretty nose and her caramel complexion gleamed (especially at her forehead) as the light of the camera touched her face. To the camera, Nick smiled and said, "Hello, dear viewer and welcome to another session of the show, Talk with 025. I am your humble host, Nick. With me is a beautiful young woman who has travelled the ends ...

A NIGHT OF FOREVER Anaelechi Miracle Smart Smart Anaelechi (Facebook) The Whatsapp status of all my classmates was covered with my engagement pictures, and all social media they belonged to wasn't exempted. I felt like I was in heaven as I admired my pictures consecutively. Even the viral pictures of Moses Bliss' engagement weren't compared to mine. I swam the ocean of ecstasy, hallucinating about different famous locations where my wedding would be held regardless of John's financial instability.   That night was as though there was a standstill on earth. It was a night but sleep never ran past my eyes, even after countless struggles for a nap, yet, my eyes were agape. Since there was nothing to do. I invaded the profile of some wedding fashionistas to glance at so many gowns to wear on my big day.  "God, soon, I will become a wife." I beamed a smile on each reminisce as I gave a screen kiss to John's picture.  It had been a year since I knew John who wor...
