The Real Problem With Nollywood

One of the problems nollywood has is that the industry is saturated with illiterates who are just out to do biz and not to entertain. They bring the money for production so they call the shots. N people with ideas have no money to make movies.

As far as I am concerned, the censors board should not exist.  It's the job of the police to fight piracy; the censors board's job is censorship, which is something that shouldn't be done by the government in a free country.

What is a professional?

I'm tired of reading all this rubbish ''criticism'' by self-hating IDIOTS here.

Sit there and be hating, bastards.

Nollywood is watched all over the world now even as far away as Dominica, Barbados, Jamaica, and Black America, including of course French and English/Portuguese speaking Africa where sub-titled versions are effected.

The third largest movie industry in the world worth at least $800 million in annual revenue is not something for IDIOTIC SELF-HATING NIT-WITS and AIR-HEADS who've contributed NOTHING THEMSELVES to Nigeria or Africa to sniff their noses at.

I walk into a Jamaican hairdressers in London and all they watch is Nollywood movies.

I walk into a Bajan hairdressers in London and all they watch is Nollywood movies. On their  shelves are stacked rows and rows of Nollywood movies,

For the first time non-Africans get to see what Africa is really about devoid of sensationalist misrepresentation by western media.

Production is improving, acting is improving, directing is improving, and if you don't see this it is because you do not watch Nollywood movies on any sort of regular basis.

So SHUT THE FUUK UP AND STOP RUBBISHING WHAT YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT.

 Nollywood in Nigeria is not an encouraging one at all and when someone makes good comment instead of working on it they look for excuses to cover it unless we learn from our mistakes NOLLY WOOD WILL NEVER GROW.Many countries in the world use entertainments as revenue for there country we too can do likewise.

Recently Nigeria celebrities are no longer Nollywood stars rather they are Musicians,Radio presenters,Comedians etc.because they are good in doing their work and also aiming higher.

Thanks guys for this topic. I think the only problem with nollywood and Nigeria, as a whole, is their lousy act of imitation. The only thing that pisses me off is when i sit down to watch a movie from my country, NIGERIA and it's the exact imitation of one foreign(America) movie or the other. Why do people copy other people? I believe it's because you think the person you're copying is beter, right?. I, (personally) know that Our ways are better than that of most countries, especially this America they're always copying. I should know because i live there, i've seen their way of life and to be frank, America has no culture. So, it annoys me to see Naija copying them. It shows that we ain't got style, you know. Like, last night, i was watching this T.V show,with Will Smith "Prince of Bel-air" and there was this background song and i listened and i was shocked that this same song was used as a"joke" in "NITE OF A THOUSAND LAUGHS". It goes "Don't worry, be happy".Anyways, it's not just NIGERIA but most countries in Africa like GHANA but they are not really my worry. I love my country and i'm proud of it but at times like these, i have my doubts.   Don't just hate on what i said,  think about what i said.

Every other country in the world copies Hollywood.  Nollywood is better than most other movie industries.
