![]() However, after those seven years elapse, the two friends’ lives start going downhill in chilling ways.įirst released in 2009 at the International Film Festival Rotterdam, The Figurine is one of the few Nollywood films that have received appreciable international, critical, and scholarly attention. The movie follows two friends who find a mysterious figurine in the forest apparently, those who find the figurine will gain seven years of luck. Supernatural thriller film The Figurine is one of the most intriguing Nollywood films from the past few decades. The FigurineĬountry: Nigeria | Director: Kunle Afolayan | Cast: Ramsey Nouah, Omoni Oboli, Kunle Afolayan, Funlola Aofiyebi-Raimi | Genre: Thriller, Mystery, Horror | Year: 2009 | Language: English, Yoruba While the film’s 2 hour 49 minute runtime might turn off some viewers, King of Boys should appeal to those who enjoy dark movies with meditations on power and violence. King of Boys features actress Sola Sobowale in a powerful performance as Alhaja Eniola Salami, a powerful businesswoman who will stop at nothing to advance her own interests. While The Wedding Party was a socially conscious romantic comedy, King of Boys is a darker, politically-tinged thriller-which provides fodder for examining the world in addition to entertainment. While that movie is also on Netflix, we’re leaving it off this list in favor of Adetiba’s second movie: King of Boys. In 2016, Nigerian director Kemi Adetiba made The Wedding Party, which to this date is the highest-grossing Nollywood movie of all time.

Narrative complexity isn’t Catching Feelings’ area of expertise. ![]() When a famous white South African writer returns to Max’s university for a book tour, Max finds himself drawn to the writer’s social circles yet resenting the writer’s success-which puts strain on his relationship with Sam.

South African film Catching Feelings adds another dash of romance to our list while retaining a sense of sociopolitical consciousness.

While the majority of African movies on Netflix are from Nigeria’s Nollywood, we’ve taken care to include non-Nollywood titles as well.

![]() ![]() Some use the day to commemorate a National Day of Mourning, which was established in 1970. ![]() ![]() But, among the individualized reactions to this national holiday, a common thread appears among the response of many Indigenous peoples. The answer to that question is as varied as humans are in their individual outlooks. With the weight of this history on their shoulders, how do some Indigenous people spend Thanksgiving? Juul continued, "The fighting led to the enslavement and massacre of over 700 men, women and children from the New England-based tribe, a bloody precursor to what would be centuries of strife for Native peoples in the US." In his explanation, Chairman Brian Weeden said his outlook is tied to the initial harvest meal his ancestors shared with the pilgrims in the Plymouth Colony. In an interview with Time magazine, a Chairman of the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe explained why such feelings occur during this national holiday. Instead, this time of year represents the dark shadow of genocide and its damaging affect on a resilient group of people. In a recent article that included interviews with multiple Indigenous people, USA Today pointed out that for many of those interviewed it simply isn't possible to only celebrate peace and shared prosperity between Native Americans and Pilgrims during Thanksgiving. This holiday, typically referred to as Thanksgiving, is often viewed as a reflection of and tribute to a three-day harvest feast of 1621 believed to be shared between a tribe of native peoples called the Wampanoag and a group of new-comers to their land, the pilgrims.īut, according to USA Today, many modern-day descendants of the Wampanoag and other native tribes approach this time of year with a gravity that other cultures may struggle to understand. enjoy gathering for a large meal and collaboratively reflecting on the aspects of life they're most grateful for.

ACS-12īeing the only automatic Shotgun in the game meant that the ACS-12 was an ‘automatic’ inclusion to my list (see what I did there?). ‘Jazz Hands’ obviously synergizes well with the Double Barrel and ‘Premeditated’, as you both want to and need to reload very often. As for ‘Distance’, I feel like having a little more range on a weapon like a Shotgun can be helpful in both PvP and PvE. I’ve explained why I like ‘Premeditated’ already. For PvP, you won’t find a better Shotgun, and for numbers in PvE, the Double Barrel is sure to entertain.īest Talents – Premeditated and Distance/Jazz Hands Buff lasts for 10 seconds.īasically, you should always be reloading your Double Barrel fully, meaning you receive 50% damage to an already powerful burst damage weapon. If all shells are reloaded then weapon damage is increased by an additional +50%. Premeditated – Weapon damage is increased for every shell loaded to a max of +35%. This thing hits like a truck, and with a 2 bullet capacity it benefits ridiculously well from the shotgun-only weapon talent ‘Premeditated’. The Double Barrel Shotgun is capable of huge amounts of burst damage. Double Barrel Shotgun/Double Barrel Shotgun Replica If you compare these two talents with some of the better weapon talents like ‘Premeditated’, you can see why this weapon falls a little short. The ‘Sandman’ talent is also pretty poor, as healing that has already taken place before the debuff was applied isn’t prevented. Using melee attacks in a game like The Division is both risky and unrewarding, as the damage you put out has no way of scaling, Melee builds aren’t a thing, yet we have a weapon and a weapon class devoted to melee. The talent ‘Sweet Dreams’, for example, requires you to land a melee attack on an enemy for an armour increase that only last for a mere 10 seconds. Sadly, having Sweet Dreams holstered is the most use I’ve got out of it, as the other two weapon talents are nowhere near as good as the talents you could have on a normal high end shotgun. This isn’t even the best part of this talent, however, as the Evasive also works when your shotgun is holstered! So for example, if you pair this with a 100 mag LMG, you will get 25 rounds back per roll. For those confused, Evasive actually reloads 25% of your weapons magazine, so that’s two shells per combat roll in real terms. The equipped weapon talent is also fantastic, added a new way of playing the game by rolling more often to refill your ammo. Like I said, the damage here is solid, especially the sustained damage where only the Double Barrel shotgun can compete. Whilst it features pretty decent damage-some of the best burst and sustained damage from any shotgun in fact-it also has some of the most useless weapon talents in the game. The exotic Shotgun in The Division 2 is a bit strange. Sandman – This debuff prevents the enemy from using armor kits and from receiving healing from any source.Įvasive – While equipped, dodging reloads 1% of your current weapon’s magazine. Killing an enemy with the Sandman debuff reapplies the bonus armor. Sweet Dreams – Landing a melee attack on an enemy after swapping to this weapon grants 35% bonus armor and applies the Sandman debuff. ![]() So with that in mind, here are my favourite Shotguns in The Division 2, with the weapon talents I’d most like to see rolled on them. With the right build and talents, a powerful Shotgun can in fact one-hit-kill a player. The shotgun-only talent ‘Premeditated’, for example, can be extremely strong in PvP, boosting damage by up to 50% in some situations. Unlike every other weapon in the game, shotguns don’t gain a shooting or damage benefit, instead being awarded with increased melee damage.ĭespite the meta and that dodgy weapon bonus, Shotguns can actually be pretty powerful, especially in PvP with the right weapon talents. What I find most disappointing about the shotguns is the weapon type bonus. The Division 2 is sadly no exception to this rule, with Shotguns quickly become the least popular weapon, especially in PvE. So insanely powerful in some games yet so weak in others, it seems that this weapon type, above all others, is the most difficult to get right. ![]() ![]() You will have to switch over to the new and improved Anniversary graphical settings to see them. ![]() Note: If you are using classic mode graphics (the old version), neither the Skulls or the Terminals will appear.

![]() ![]() "Dollar Short" was one of five tracks compiled onto a tape called Stone Gossard Demos '91 that Gossard, Ament, and McCready circulated in the hopes of finding a singer and drummer for the group. After Wood died of a heroin overdose, Gossard and his bandmate Jeff Ament started playing with guitarist Mike McCready with the hope of starting a new band. According to Gossard in an interview for Pearl Jam's VH1 Storytellers special, Mother Love Bone frontman Andrew Wood had even sung on it. ![]() Guitarist Stone Gossard wrote the music for the song, which he titled "Dollar Short", in 1990 when he was still a member of Mother Love Bone. Remixed versions of the song were included on Pearl Jam's 2004 greatest hits album, Rearviewmirror (Greatest Hits 1991–2003), and the 2009 Ten reissue. However, the song did peak at number 16 on the Album Rock Tracks chart and number 18 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. The single was available only through import in the United States, so it was not able to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. It also reached the top 20 in Belgium, Ireland, the Netherlands, and New Zealand. ![]() It was the first Pearl Jam song to receive a certification from the British Phonographic Industry, going Silver in August 2018 for sales and streams of over 200,000. "Alive" charted at number 16 in the United Kingdom and number nine in Australia. Vocalist Eddie Vedder obtained a copy of the tape and wrote lyrics that describe a somewhat fictionalized account of the time when he was told that the man he thought was his father was not actually his biological parent. Written by guitarist Stone Gossard, the song originated as an instrumental titled "Dollar Short" and was included on a demo tape circulated in hopes of finding a singer for the group. It was released on July 7, 1991, 51 days before the release of the band's debut album, Ten, on which "Alive" appears. " Alive" is the debut single by American rock band Pearl Jam. ![]() |
