Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by VillageBoi(m): 5:06pm On Oct 31, 2013 |
Just a shout out to all London peeps. Hopefully you find this to be of interest. The Royal African Society's annual film festival is here again (and yes they will be showing Mother of George). How many times are these festivals going to keep repeating Osuofia in London? They nefa tire? We don get berra things to show siiiince nah! Anyway some really interesting 'debates' like 'The Business of Film in Africa' (FREE Industry Forum event) The whole thing runs from 1 Nov - 10 Nov. Check out the programme here - http://www.filmafrica.org.uk/programme/ |

so london peeps like Osuofia this much..? why not show "onye ozi" in place of it if they want comedy? |

prof800: so london peeps like Osuofia this much..?I wonder o! Mother of George is sold out so one of the Naija films I'll be seeing is 'Living In Bondage'... I've never seen that on the BIG screen. Hoodrush has never interested me. |

VillageBoi: Hoodrush is one of Nollywood's best this year (I saw it this year), trust me! A lot better than the first musical; Inale. I wonder why the film had zero publicity. I saw it January and I wanted to share....then I don't know what stopped me sef. I think you will enjoy it. Though it started slow and I didn't dig the colour grading, but I loved it. I went into the theatre with low expectations though and it was really above my expectations. You might end up getting surprised like me as well. |

^ ^ ^ You will not believe I was buying tickets for Hoodrush this morning to take some friends... the server was down at the point when I picked our seats. I then went out, just got back and the darn things are SOLD OUT... not that I really care though teehee. Will just have to take my friends out to do something else |

VillageBoi: ^ ^ ^ You see . Even London people dey rush am . But seriously, those guys have zero marketing strategy! The only hype it received was through 'word of mouth' and positive reviews. |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by prof800(m): 3:22pm On Nov 02, 2013 |
speedyboi:villagesquaretv tried for them sha..hyping the movie allova lagos. if not, I myself wouldn't know about the film. But this is really poor marketing coming from those flipsyde guys. |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by VillageBoi(m): 4:19pm On Nov 02, 2013 |
^ ^ ^ Speedy & Prof It's a real shame if they didn't market their movie well. What makes me wonder is why in the world is it 145 mins in length? Another reason I'm not eager to see it. No be say na epic blockbuster nah AND cinemas will find it a hard length to swallow from an unknown newbie. Filmmaking 101. Nuff said |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by Nobody: 10:29pm On Nov 02, 2013 |
VillageBoi: ^ ^ ^ @145mins, that's because it's a musical I guess. They have to tell the story and sing as well. But the song 'sweet' sha ...you won't realise how fast the 145mins will fly Btw...as usual...I was looking for a movie to go see tomorrow evening, then bam! I saw captain Phillips has been released into Nigerian theatres. Make I click on 'ticket booking', I saw there's no more ticket available for the movie at my preferred schedule. I sha ended up booking for confusion nawa so I can atleast have something to relax over before the week begins. Funny, I searched and I discovered the movie is actually well received....now I'm eager to see it |

speedyboi:Have seen it twice... I'm sure you'll like it, it's pretty good. Btw... I saw 'Turbo' today... That was a really enjoyable film. The crowd both adults & kids loved it and a lot of people were dancing in their seats at the end! Turbo Trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlRtm8Gh9PQ |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by prof800(m): 9:02am On Nov 03, 2013 |
"Confusion na wa" received positive welcoming...it's a shame I've not been able to watch it. |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by Nobody: 11:49am On Nov 03, 2013 |
VillageBoi:Unfortunately, I won't be seeing it till probably next weekend prof800: "Confusion na wa" received positive welcoming... it's a shame I've not been able to watch it. I was surprised! The name alone has been a turn off for me! What the heck is 'confusion nawa'? Do they need any special funds to be able to give a movie an attractive title? |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by VillageBoi(m): 5:26pm On Nov 03, 2013 |
speedyboi:I kinda liked the trailer and want to see it too. |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by Nobody: 9:22pm On Nov 03, 2013 |
Just got back from 'Confusion Nawa'! I can see the reason the film was well received. It's such a simple effortless story! The filmmakers didn't try to outdo themselves! It's a nice film anyway; Set within 24hours. Anybody would like it cos it is very 'relatable'. Not a waste of money |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by VillageBoi(m): 10:06pm On Nov 03, 2013 |
^ ^ ^ Thanks a lot for that bro. I will def find a way to see it |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by Nobody: 10:15pm On Nov 03, 2013 |
VillageBoi: ^ ^ ^ lol...you welcome. btw, turbo is an 'animation' movie? . That explains the reason i never heard of it! I hate animations |
Re: Filmafrica UK. Festival In London. by VillageBoi(m): 10:45pm On Nov 03, 2013 |
speedyboi: Lol... you're like me. I've never liked animations but of recent I've seen a lot and have enjoyed many |
