Portrayal Of Kissing And Lovemaking In Nollywood Movies

U got some new techiques u want to share?

Lmao

yes the love scenes are appalling, terrible, need plenty of wok, not just that the actors themselves need work, infact i  blame the directors. Anyway we know Nigerians like to pretend that they are modest and respectable(rolls eyes) by nothaving full on snugs   on screen for fear of people labeling them as prostitutes,but come on, there are ways of making the scenes look real. i saw one once and they were trying to fool us they were actually deeply kisssing and i looked like the two stars were having a neck wrestling championship.
I saw another where the guy had his back to the camera and then acted like they were kissing and the camera man must have been on ectascy or something, because he swung his shot to her face and she was actually having a little giggle. Now the director and editors must have been on crack to actually give that scene the green light and unleashed this bad lovescene on us.

Anyway i think its part of the reasons people love nollywood,its cringe worthy and would definitely work as an ice breaker in any room.

not just the kissing alone, the cameramen need to get their angling right. don't they teach them how to get good angles and stuff like that? c'mon now, learn from hollywood. its always appaling to look at two naija actors kissing in a movie. no co-ordination, no on-screen chemistry, the woman always looks shy or like she's being forced, the guys lips are all over the place, God help us if he has humongous lips and he doesnt know what to do with it. haba!

Give them time to get used to it. Remember,
Nollywood is still relatively young.

I think our culture has a lot to do with it. It is
one thing to be the freakiest woman on earth
in the privacy of your room, but when it is done
in front of a camera, actresses have to worry about
what "mama and papa and relatives" would think.

I guess we are not as liberated in our sexuality (in front
of the camera) as our western counterparts.

IF you want more kissing and realistic sex grab a porno , don't let agros catch you

@ enugu.  first of all, ewwwwwwww saliva dripping out of his mouth? and they had the audacity to show that in a movie? what bad taste! they should be sued for making us watch rubbish like that. and i really give it to indians with their no kissing policy. because of that, the teasing makes it even better than the real thing. small time the guy chases the girl, she plays hard to get, he tries to kiss her and she just smiles, moves her head away and breaks into a song  see, nothing gross about that. has worked for them for ages. so we can do the same or at least make the kissing decent for tv.

i didnt understand your last senetence though. what did you mean by "jigger"? and "imaginary spots"? 

U guys heard of the saying "If U can't Make It, Fake It".

Love scene in nigerian movies are simply "fake."
They know they can't make it real better to fake it; and it really sucks!

i don't buy the idea that nigerian men are not good kissers;

of course we do have good kissers; but they don't necessarily have to be in movies for u to know.

perhaps those that are there are not representing the male folks well enough.

Most Nollywood films are family films. This means for mother father and the kids,
I think people will stop buying them if it is any more than that a family film.

That is what i love about Bollywood they do not Kiss and they do not fu** .But what every they are doing there , it looks good.

!8 is just a number,
am not sure many parents care about the violence as they do about the kissing.
I know that i watched many bad  horror films they did not bother my dad it was only the KIss and nude parts that bothered him.

I know kissing is not our culture.
And i know that these films are made so bad that my kids have a good laugh.
They do not look real. Well not to me.
But i agree with  kissing is not a part of our culture

ah did i hear theres a wonderful kisser in the hizzzzouse??  abeg wheres your mouth o, because I'm a great kisser so i think and most naija guys are just blaaaaahhhhhhh!!!! 

people everywhere adapt all kinds of cultures. aint no wrong in that.

For the mere fact that some of this cultures has been for ages doesnt mean they are right or perfect.

we just have to imbibe new trends into our cultures rather than recycling same-old stuff for ages.

for God sake the world is revolving, 
we need to revolve along with it.
