tony ayo: For example, this guy has no business with writing scripts, acting or directing a movie. But he may wake up and decide he's talented and bam!!! He's selling scripts with grammatical errors to illiterate marketers. |

Stundey: Nollywood ke Ok ooo, i get advise i want yan them That is a silly suggestion. You think by putting naked women in a movie, the storyline becomes more interesting? If a movie is good, it is good. Porn doesn't increase the quality of a movie. My advice to them is to stop giving different names to part 2 and three of d same movie. Hate that 2 Likes |

ugojamali: some great writers in hollywood can't write proper grammar....No? Tschew....like sey na grammar we wan chop! If you like write your scripts in Pidgin....those are the least important things! What matters is the art! #Okbye 2 Likes |

speedyboi: I beg to disagree. A writer must be good in the language he chooses to write in. Great writers in Hollywood write proper grammar. If u write a wonderful script fraught with grammatical errors and send to hollywood producers, it won't even make it past the secretary's waste bin! You know why? Because reading a story filled with grammatical errors will actually distract you from the story itself. #okbyetoo 1 Like |

I know you looked Tony Ayo up but missed this thread response - https://www.nairaland.com/1477619/murder-she-wrote-short-film#18855111 I understand what you are saying but it really isn't the case. There are writers that write great stories with grammatical errors BUT... the but is those errors get corrected at some point. 1 Like |

ugojamali: well, if he is not good with how to hammer the nails, he can always get someone to cross-check for him. If he's good with the designs, crafting and other essential stuffs....then he's good to go! The most important thing is for him to know his minor weakness (which is how to hammer nails perfectly) and fix them somehow before giving out his furniture works to the customer! this is a bad comparison anyway! |

Chestar5: they should stop making sound track dat makes us know what will happen in the movie..as if the movies weren't predictable enough, one clown will sing one jaga jaga song in the background telling the entire story. In my opinion, we have a long way to go, not because we lack the talent, but our people have chosen the easy route to quick fame and money. Get a good writer to write a good script, which is the bedrock. There are so many situations in our society to adapt from. It is not mandatory that ur movie must have a 'known face' to sell. I see a lot of young directors posting stuff on YouTube featuring fresh talent. Get an imaginative director with an eye for detail to put the story together. A good director will make a bad actor seem good, but even Marlon Brando can't help a bad director. and most of all, get ur continuity right. Am tired of seeing a flash back scene where the characters still had the same lace wig. I even saw a flashback from the eighties where the actor drove a car with the new number plate, haha. Spend money on ur consultants. A good movie will stand the test of time, ask anyone who saw Mosebolatan or any of Ogunde's works. 1 Like |

My own is dat they shld portray Nigeria better than they ar doin right now. If u watch bollywood films,u'l enjoy their rich culture.In Nigerian movies,u'l c al d negativ thngs in d world.Nollywood Yoruba is alarming.D rate at whch they portray juju&killings&al these fetish nonsense.It even makes ppl scared of travellin 2their village.

Jade William:U'v said it al.Vry sensible comment. Tchidi Chikere is my worst movie producer.He uses few casts&his movies end senselessly. I miss Chico Ejiro.He's Nollywood's best.C al d old movies he produced: Domitila&d rest Those actresses dat acted in 2brides&a baby are so good in acting.They were natural&d producer of dat movie did a vry good job.

lestat: They should stop making movies totally and focus on documentaries because all their movies suck.... nobody watches that cap they out out. at least nobody with any senseWhat are u even writing? Pls speak 4urself.Nollywood has lots of audience if u don't knw it.It portrays African livelihood;culture,fashion,rural areas,language&d rest. My parents&grandparents don't joke wit nolllywood movie. There're lots of hollywood movies whch annoying&bullsh*t.D ones my brothers ar watching dem lik:Spatacus;Merlin;Once upon a time;Game of thrones (those weird thngs dat ar said 2live behind d wall- how real is dat sh*t?);Vampire movies&those stupid dead men walkin&zombie series. Ppl shld stop makin condescendin comments abt nollywood movies.Hollywood spend money 2produce bullsh*t.They'l also guilty pls |
