Why Are Nigerian Not Traditionally Innovative? by Kalman(m): 10:05am On Jul 10, 2011
It has come to my utmost displeasure that Nigerians copy too much. And as a matter of fact this negative trend is practiced shamefully by the all Producers in Nollywood.
Please Guys what's the way forward about something like this? Must we always show the world we learn as children how to copy from another persons work in class?
Can't we be innovative for once?

Am set to stop watching any made in Nigeria Movie. Don't know about you guys?

And by the way, is this suppose to be funny?

Title is wacky. Not even talking about the spoof.

WHy do I have a feeling that this movie isn't real? . . this cover also doesn't look real. This must just be a fabrication of the poster to ridicule Nigerians (I wish). Even if anyone decides to produce this movie, then i think its just a comic imitation of the real stuff and there's nothing wrong with the idea grin.

@segevu
So, you're a graphic artist. Your Nollywood movie poster spoofs are quite good especially "Queen's Speesh".

ROFLWKMD!!!!! By way of setting the records straight, this is a spoof, and it's never ever going to be produced (i hope, don't want to be giving these guys ideas)

True. Whilst we had fun making these posters, the underlying idea was that the overall body of stakeholders in nollywood improves the quality of the movies they output. Sometimes, i get the feeling that it's a secret mass propaganda with the aim of dumbing down the general populace by selling them really dumbed down ideas. Say, i take a cross-section of 10 movies and watch all of them, i reckon that 8 of them all talk about love, 9 of them is about greed, money and repercussions thereof, 5 of them include witches and other forms of sorcery, the list is endless. Can't someone out there make a brilliant film that is epic and still as close to our everyday existence as possible?

All in all, i thank you guys for seeing our works. Do help us spread the word. We can only be the change we want to see.
