Dark Phoenix
Dark Phoenix is the 12th film in the X-Men franchise, if you count the Wolverine and Deadpool spin-offs, but it’s the first to have a female central character: an X-Woman rather than an X-Man. Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones) stars as Jean Grey, a mutant whose psychic powers are supercharged when a space rescue mission goes wrong. She’s joined by Jennifer Lawrence, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and the other regulars, and Jessica Chastain plays an alien who tries to lead Jean astray. How any of this connects to the ‘Dark Phoenix’ storyline in 2006’s X-Men: The Last Stand… well, you might need some psychic powers of your own to know for sure.
Released on 5 June in the UK and France, 6 June in Australia, Germany, and the Netherlands and 7 June in the US

Late Night
Mindy Kaling, creator of The Mindy Project, writes and co-stars in this comedy about the US’s only female late-night talk show host, Katherine Newbury (Emma Thompson), a boss from hell with an attitude and a silver hairdo to match Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada. To save her show from cancellation, Katherine hires an inexperienced fan (Kaling) who advises her that she is “a little old and a little white”. Jason Bailey in Flavorwire says that Late Night “may be a longer and more sincere 30 Rock, but there’s some pretty heady stuff about ‘diversity hires’ and workplace inequality in what has always been and remains a very straight-white-male-centric world”.
Released on 7 June in the US, the UK, Ireland and Canada

Men In Black: International
Seven years on from Men In Black 3, the sci-fi comedy franchise returns, but Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones aren’t returning with it. Instead, the trademark suits and shades have been handed down to Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson, who are currently better known as Thor and Valkyrie from The Avengers. Thompson plays Agent M, a newly recruited alien hunter who meets Hemsworth’s Bond-like Agent H in the agency’s London office. The director of Men In Black: International, F Gary Gray, made the most entertaining of the Fast and the Furious films, 2017’s The Fate of the Furious, which has to be a good sign.
Released on 14 June in the UK and the US

The Dead Don’t Die
Jim Jarmusch’s zombie movie pastiche stars Bill Murray, Adam Driver and Chloe Sevigny as the rural cops who have to deal with an undead epidemic in their leafy small town. Iggy Pop is one of the reanimated corpses, Selena Gomez is a tourist who chooses the wrong night to check into the local motel, and a scene-stealing Tilda Swinton is an undertaker with a samurai sword and a broad Scottish accent. The Dead Don’t Die , which BBC Culture reviewed from this year’s Cannes Film Festival, is a quietly quirky homage to 1950s sci-fi B-movies, which works best if you think of it not as a zombie comedy but as a zombie tragicomedy.
Released on 13 June in Italy and 14 June in the US

Shaft
Could this be the only case of three films in the same series having exactly the same title? First of all there was 1971’s Shaft, a blaxploitation classic starring Richard Roundtree. Then the series was revived with 2000’s Shaft, starring Samuel L Jackson as the nephew of Roundtree’s character, and now we have yet another Shaft, with Jessie T Usher joining the family business as the son of John Shaft II and the grand-nephew of the first. Can you dig it? This version, directed by Tim Story, is a comedy, with much the same wimpy younger guy/tough older guy dynamic as Story’s 2014 hit, Ride Along.
Released on 14 June in Australia, Canada, the US and the UK

Diego Maradona
The latest documentary portrait from the Oscar-winning Asif Kapadia (Senna, Amy), Diego Maradona tells the tragic tale of how the Argentine footballing legend rose to godlike status before falling to the level of “Italy’s most hated man”, and then falling further still. As ever, Kapadia has sifted through hundreds of hours of archive footage, and used it to fashion a story with the pace and tension of a thriller. When the film debuted at the Cannes Film Festival, Indiewire called it a “breathless and gripping saga” of sex, drugs and organised crime – and, let’s not forget, some almost unbelievable displays of speed and dexterity on the pitch.
Released on 14 June in the UK

Toy Story 4
Does one of cinema’s all-time great trilogies really need a part four? Tom Hanks and Tim Allen, Woody and Buzz Lightyear respectively, promise that the ending of Toy Story 4 is even more heart-wrenching than the ending of Toy Story 3 – although, unless it involves the lingering deaths of all of the major characters, it is hard to see how that could be possible. At any rate, Disney Pixar’s cartoon sees the return of Bo Peep (Annie Potts), and the arrival of Forky (Tony Hale, Arrested Development and Veep), a plastic spork who suffers an existential crisis when he is made into a toy. Also in the toy box: Duke Caboom (Keanu Reeves), an Evel Knievel-style motorcyclist figure, and the villainous Gabby Gabby (Christina Hendricks), a doll who has been stuck in an antique shop for 60 years.
Released on 20 June in Australia, 21 June in the UK, the US and Canada and 26 June in Belgium, France, Italy and the Netherlands

Child’s Play
Released in the UK and the US on the same day as Toy Story 4, here is another film featuring living dolls, but this one, made by the producers of 2017’s It, should be the creepier of the two. It’s a remake of the 1988 slasher movie about a toy possessed by the soul of a serial killer. Aubrey Plaza plays the single mother who really should have bought a more suitable plaything for her teenage son. Mark Hamill, who voiced the Joker in various Batman cartoons, provides the mocking voice of Chucky. But the far-fetched premise is slightly more credible this time around, in that it is smart technology rather than voodoo magic that enables Chucky to butcher anyone who mistakes him for Buzz Lightyear.
Released on 20 June in Australia and on 21 June in the UK, the US and Mexico

Anna
A stylish thriller about a supermodel-turned-assassin (Sasha Luss) who shoots and stabs her way around expensive Paris restaurants while wearing designer outfits? Yes, it does sound like the same film that Luc Besson has been writing and directing ever since Nikita came out in 1990, but after 2017’s sci-fi folly, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, you can hardly blame him for returning to a winning formula. Besides, 2014’s Lucy, starring Scarlett Johansson, was a colossal hit, so Besson might well believe that action heroines with four-letter names are his lucky charm. Helen Mirren, whose father was Russian, plays Anna’s Russian handler, with Cillian Murphy and Luke Evans as the men she may or may not kick in the face.
Released on 20 June in Australia and Italy and on 21 June in the US

Yesterday
Imagine there were no Lennon and McCartney songs. It’s easy if you try. It was easy for Richard ‘Love Actually’ Curtis, anyway, who scripted this high-concept romantic comedy directed by Danny ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ Boyle. Himesh Patel stars as Jack Malik, an aspiring singer-songwriter who has no fans except his loyal best friend Ellie (Lily James). That all changes when a cosmic storm dents the space-time continuum, leaving Jack in a world where The Beatles never existed, but where he can still remember all of their songs. All he has to do is claim those songs as his own and megastardom beckons. Yes, there was a similar plot strand in a 1990s BBC sitcom, Goodnight Sweetheart, but HeyUGuys hails Yesterday as “utterly joyous and smile-inducing throughout. It’s a glorious celebration of the intoxicating beauty of music, human connection and the beautiful British summertime.”

Nigeria’s Africa Cup of Nations campaign got off to a winning start on Saturday as they edged out Burundi 1-0.

Gernot Rohr’s side, who are 89 places above Burundi in FIFA’s world rankings, struggled for long periods in their Group B opener at the Alexandria Stadium but sealed all three points in the 77th minute.

Odion Ighalo, introduced for Paul Onuachu just four minutes earlier, latched onto Ola Aina’s wonderful back-heeled pass and coolly whipped the ball past Jonathan Nahimana.

Nigeria will hope to put in a vastly improved performance against Guinea on Wednesday, while Burundi face Madagascar a day later

Even on the modded/cloned Whatsapp. If you have been temporarily banned when using any third-party WhatsApp, the truth is that there isn’t any solution to getting unbanned because your Number has been targeted for further violations.

We all know that the major reason why we prefer these third-party WhatsApp messengers to the original one is because of the added features in it, most especially the feature that allows you to save a picture or video from a contact’s status without stress.

Now that you have reverted back to the normal WhatsApp, I would like to tell you that all hope is not lost as you can still save a contact’s picture or video directly to your phone. The good news is that it does not require any status saver app or any third-party WhatsApp messenger, only your time and effort.

How to save WhatsApp status with the normal WhatsApp messenger

I’m sure that you might be wondering how possible it is to actually save a contact’s picture or video on his WhatsApp status, I won’t bore you with the details, let’s get started.

• Locate the “WhatsApp” folder and click on it.
• Tap on the “Media” folder.
• When it opens, locate any three horizontal/vertically placed dots on the phone and click on it.
• Tap on “Show hidden files” (This depends on the type of phone that you are using).
• A “Statuses” tab will appear right away, open it.
• After opening the folder, you will see a list of pictures and videos, this depends on the amount of videos/pictures that you’ve viewed in the last 24 hours. Locate the picture/video that you like by opening them one by one until you come across the selected one.
• When you see the picture/video that you are looking for, copy and paste it to another folder on your “Phone Storage” or “External Storage”. That is if there is any available.

Since the premiere of ‘The Red Table Talk’ on facebook, it has gained massive attention and fans can’t just have enough of the show. It’s been fantastic as reality and transparency is put into place.

The show is rolled out by the Smith’s family,Jada Pinkett, her daughter Willow Smith and Jada’s mother Adrienne.

Several shocking confessions has been made on the program from Jada Pinkett Saying She Was Betrayed In Her Marriage To Will Smith and also Jada Pinkett Saying She’s Once Addicted To P0rn Due To ‘Emptiness’ and not to forget she also revealed that That Her Marriage Is In Trouble Once Her Ego Kicks In.

After winning the MTV “Trailblazer” award, Jada appears in this Monday’s episode of RTT to make another surprising revelation that she’d had a threesome. On Monday’s episode, the trio explored alternatives to conventional marriage when they met a “throuple” two women and a man in a three-way romantic relationship.

In the exclusive clip of the episode, a fan asked her if she’d ever had a threesome before. She replied “I had a threesome once. I was very, very young,” she admitted, as her daughter, Willow Smith, covered her eyes. “Like early 20s.”

The Girls Trip actress continued, “I didn’t like it. It just didn’t have the level of intimacy [I wanted]. But I tried it once and I was like, ‘Well, that’s not for me.’” She went back to add, “But I always think if I was in love with two people, that’s another level. I could see and join a threesome then, but I was a kid. I saw two cute people and I was like, ‘Hey.’

Nigerian police have arrested a popular Instagram comedian identified as Funny Toheeb following allegation of internet fraud leveled against him.

The celebrity made this known after he took to social media to share pictures of himself at a police station.

Pharraohworld believes that he was arrested and labelled a ‘Yahoo Boy’ by some policemen, describing the situation as unwelcoming.
He further preached that measures should be taken to stop police brutality in Nigeria, using the hashtag “#stoppolicebrutalityinnigeria”

He wrote, “When will Nigeria police listen and stop harassing youths???… this is me yesterday in police custody, allegedly accused of Yahoo Yahoo… 🤦🏽‍♂ it’s not even funny
#stoppolicebrutalityinnigeria”

This is coming weeks after rappers Zlatan Ibile and Naira Marley were arrested by EFCC over allegation of internet fraud.

Marley was arrested in Lagos on Friday, May 10, which happened to be his birthday.

Nigerians blow hot after photo of lady locally processing palm oil surfaces online
– A highly upsetting photo of a Nigerian lady processing palm oil locally recently surfaced online
– In the picture, the woman was knee-deep in the palm oil she claimed to be refining
– This picture has triggered angry reactions from Nigerians who consider her method of processing to be unhygienic
A man identified as Ikechukwu Ani on Facebook shared a photo which has been considered by many to be irritable. In the picture he posted, a lady was spotted processing palm oil locally.
The unidentified lady was knee-deep in the palm oil which was enclosed within a hole dug from earth. Her clothes were filthy and wet from the stain smeared on her by the oil, and in her hands, was some crude waste that was unpleasant to the eyes.
Even the environment in which the woman and others were doing the processing did not look appealing. It was dirty and surrounded by green leaves. Many Nigerians did not quite like what they saw in the photo and they considered the woman’s method of processing palm oil to be unhealthy.

Meet Graham. He might look a little different, but I assure you that he’s human. Well, sort of. The reason he looks this way is that he has plenty of body modifications that makes him able to survive a serious car crash.

Graham, the crash test man, was created as part of a new Australian road safetycampaign by the Transport Accident Commission (TAC). He was designed by sculptor Patricia Piccinini, a leading trauma surgeon, and a road safety engineer, who modified him based on their knowledge of car accidents. The result isn’t a pretty sight, but it’s certainly a sobering one. As you can see, Graham doesn’t have a neck because these snap easily in car accidents. He also has a flat, fleshy face to protect his ears and nose. Also, if you’re wondering about all those extra nipples, they’re to protect his ribs like a natural set of airbags. All these modifications are needed for a human body to survive a car crash.

Though Graham was not used in any real car crash tests, you might want to consider slowing down behind the wheel next time.

Meet Graham. He might look different but I assure you that he’s human

The reason he looks the way he does is because his body has been modified to withstand a car crash

Graham was created as part of a new Australian road safety campaign

He was designed by sculptor Patricia Piccinini, a leading trauma surgeon, and a road safety engineer

He has multiple nipples to protect his ribs like a natural set of airbags

Graham’s brain is the same as yours, but his skull is bigger with more fluid and more ligaments to support the brain when a collision occurs

The brain is one of the most vulnerable parts of our body. It sits delicately surrounded by cerebrospinal fluid, which acts as an inbuilt safety mechanism to protect the brain from day-to-day knocks and jolts.

Graham has a rather flat face and a lot of fatty tissue to absorb the energy of an impact

Our faces are a delicate mix of bone, muscle, and cartilage. Many people injured in car accidents receive fractures to their nose, damaging not only the bone but disrupting sinuses and the delicate parts behind the cheekbone. To combat this, Graham has a rather flat face. His nose is reduced and his ears are protected by the larger structure of his skull and neck

Graham has been designed with airbag-like ribs with sacks that do a similar job to that of an airbag

Car seat belts are designed to use the strength of the ribs to help us withstand the forces of a crash. That’s why the three-point seatbelt rests across your ribs and sternum and across your pelvis. It loads the center of your chest, spreading the force over the ribcage until the ribs break when the force becomes too great.

Graham’s skull is a lot bigger, it’s almost helmet-like and it’s got these inbuilt crumple zones that would absorb the energy on impact

The skull absorbs a lot of force on impact simply by fracturing. Essentially this stops the force from carrying through to the brain in much the same way a helmet works. Graham’s skull has been engineered to absorb more of the impact earlier, much like a helmet.

Graham’s knees have movement in all directions so they are less likely to be injured

When a pedestrian is hit by a car it’s usually when they’re stepping out from a curb. On impact, the immediate problem is that the knee is only built to bend in one direction, so it will almost always break first. Depending on the force of the impact, the tendons can also pull, twist and hyperextend well beyond their intended radius.

Graham’s neck is fortified with a brace-like structure that protects his head from injury when there is a sudden movement

There is not enough strength in the neck to stop the head from jolting forward in a crash. The forward motion causes a hyperflexion injury and the backward motion a hyperextension injury. Simply put, the neck is placed under more pressure than its structure can manage. The added danger is the spinal cord running through the neck. If it is to bend and stretch too much it will break, causing serious injuries like paraplegia or quadriplegia.

Graham has thicker and tougher skin to shield and reduce abrasions and road rash

A pedestrian impact is mostly blunt force trauma. However, if our bodies are pitched to the road or if broken glass is involved, then cuts and abrasions can occur. Skin is vulnerable to the road, with bitumen potentially wearing through clothing. This is even more important for motorcyclists and cyclists, who only have minimal protection between themselves and the road.

Strong, hoof-like legs with added joints allow him to jump out of the way quickly in a “spring-loaded” fashion

For pedestrian crashes, there are now so many variables that affect injury severity – the size of the vehicle, height, speed and angle of impact. And there are many situations where legs are badly damaged. In fact, injuries to the legs, feet, and ankles can cause long-term debilitation because we are so reliant on them for everyday movement. The shin itself is the least protected bone in the body, with only a thin layer of skin covering it.

Mavin’s Rema is gradually imposing himself on music fans in a beautiful and charismatic fashion.

Since the teenager’s arrival to the music scene, he has been able to build his own fan base which mostly comprises teenagers and lovers of the new skool.

The highly rated singer performed at an event on Sunday in Abuja and his performance was absolutely breathtaking, he took command of himself, the crowd and the show in whole.

What even surprised many was the teenager’s charisma and the fact that he dared to spray some cool naira notes in the course of the show.
