Look at the cast, there is no single Yoruba or Hausa/Fulani . . . if the rest of us do the same thing to them in politics, Ibos cry marginalization, secession, racism etc. I guess, the lesson here is that Ibos can continue to cast only their fellow Ibos in Nollywood, the rest of Nigeria, especially the Hausa/Fulani/Yoruba hegemony, will continue to cast their fellow tribesmen in politics. shikena |

antitpiah: Look at the cast, there is no single Yoruba or Hausa/Fulani . . . if the rest of us do the same thing to them in politics, Ibos cry marginalization, secession, racism etc.You are correct a little bit..... Its not only igbos....can't u see omotola in last flight to abujå, omoni in feathered dreams, anchor baby. And again.....most of those producers are yorubas Figurine-kunle afolayan Phone swap- kunle afolayan Tango with me- mohammed Ali balogun..... There are other great producers such as tunde kelani, tade ogidan (Ogd) [the master of all thém all]. He was the one who began the high budget films....and he is stepping up his game each time. Now what am I driving at? These yoruba producers still cast igbos and other tribes no matter what (maybe that shows they are less of a tribalist).........and I have even watched yoruba films where igbos are casted eg Uche Jumbo, oge Okoye, chidi mokeme, and many more.... Why I think you are wrong is that, Nollywood also involve yoruba movies so... And most people now prefer yoruba movies cos even if it is not a high budget, be rest assured that it is in high definition with perfect audio quality and editing. For a person like me for example....though I don't understand yoruba that much, the quality of their movies attracted me. Now if I want to buy yoruba movies, I watch out only for a good story, but when I want to buy an English movie (especially the low budget ones)....I first visit review sites and all that cos I'm watching out for both quality and good story. I specifically run away for movies that carry the tag 'great future productiond', 'god is good limited' etc......and any Chinedu or chukwuka productions... What am I saying......the yorubas cannot claim being marginalised in the industry. Only the hausas can..although, I see some of them in yoruba movies....and halima abubakar also act in English movies 1 Like |

all4naija: Must it always be about ethnicity? That's how it is with Igbos. It always has to be an ethnic thing with them. The moment you turn the tables they scream discrimination. 1 Like |

The only thing Nigerian about the movie is the story, production company is foreign, all the major parts are been acted Hollywood stars only cameo roles been handed to the Nollywood wannabes |

the major thing is this: all nigerian so called movies are absolute wastes. |

Csami: bros, i say i no dey watch am abi na force.....if they like let them shoot it in mars.No one is forcing u to watch id/iot, I only told you that since you don't watch the perfect Nollywood productions....just shut ur mouth and stop condemning it. o.obim:You are an id/iot....so Nollywood is the handiwork of igbo guys now? If people should consider what your fellow igbo guys almost turned the industry to(cos of your god is the king production limited) no one will watch them again. stillwater: Is Half of a yellow sun now a nollywood production because it was written by a Nigerian and is being shot in Nigeria? baby-boy: omar22: People will never seize to amuse me with their inferiority complex. so cos a movie is being sponsored by a foreigners its no longer a Nollywood movie. Mtcheew. Okay I get, only the crappy ones are Nollywood movies. Nigerians will never learn to appreciate what is theirs. So films like missing link, paparazzi etc that are filmed by foreign production companies/studios are no longer Nollywood movies.....mtcheew, I give up on you guys!

speedyboi:It is a movie set in Nigeria but not a Nollywood movie. Nollywood movies are movies that are produced and financed by Nigerians in Nigeria. This movie is a foreign movie that the story revolves around Nigeria. Why's that so hard for you to understand |
