lol.......stopped watching a long time ago...

no na pls start watching d new nollywood movies base in Lagos u love their movies.all those yeye ones are asaba nollywood.i recommend king of boys,wedding party 1 &2 Nd up north,merry men,bling lagosian for a start.mehn new nollywood don improve I respect mo abudu ebonylife and inkblot product.

What annoyed me most was a yoruba movie where a medical doctor advised a patient's relative to go and seek spiritual solution to a medical issue.

in the bid of you trying to be funny you ended up fooling yourself.. Is there any movie industry that dosent have its own flaws why do we Nigerians derive pleasure in bad mouthing our own. if na nollywood produce Merlin wen wear one shirt from season 1 to 5 una go for talk but as na the Almighty Hollywood nothing is wrong

Although am Still Watching but The One i Watched that Make Laughed hard was When I Saw Babalawo(Eze-nwayi) wearing Living Faith(Winners Chapel) Hand Ban... And Female Herbalist Using Thors Hammer to Kill People!

I stopped watching Nigeria movies, when armed robbers shot a man on his forehead, as he was falling down, the man exclaimed ...."Ohhh I'm dead"....
Who dii fxxk!! does dat

There was this popular movie a "ghost had to knock at a door before entering that particular room".....hehehe

Hahahaha, that's hella funny!

AGUBANZE:
In as much as we guys are criticizing, Nollywood it’s the second highest movie producers after Indias Bollywood . Couple with our epileptic electricity supply they built a million dollar industry from nothing but pure dedication and a lot of people are benefiting and are employed by this industry.

Don’t forget the highly acclaimed movies like Lionsheart and the likes of others .


They sure have their share of challenges but great success is achieved through practice and experiments . Nobody got it right overnight.


We should appreciate ours too.

D fact that nollywood is second after Bollywood in terms of volume, doesn't mean that d films are good. Volume or quantity isn't d same as quality. Its our women who are d greatest consumers of nollywood movies. U can't understand d mystery same way u can't understand y they so much love zeeworld and telemundo

I stopped watching Nollywood movies when a man and woman had ex with out removing their clothes

BankyGee:
I stopped watching Nigerian films:
- When I saw electric poles inside evil forest! Sh!t, are the spirits charging their phones?
- When I saw empty Viju milk can in Heaven
- When a man was shot in the leg but has bandage on his head and arms in the hospital

-Of course, the spirits need to charge their phones now....
-Didn't you know that Viju milk is the official drink of the heavenly ones...
-ok...the bullet magically transmigorfied through the leg...into the head and hands and wounded the hands...ok I give up !

LOL good ones.

pls stop Condeming then joo, ofcos Hollywood also have many flaws, I [b]was watching "strike back" few days ago, I had to stop at season 3,even when I had the rest of the season with me,
imagine a single soldier, going for several missions in various African countries, to spy, sneaking and beating heavy securities on ground.
What Hangers me most was, him shooting many shooters but the opponent bullet will never hit him, and his always hit the target.
Dropping his gun, just to fight another that is heavyly armed with bear hand combat. [/b]


We. All have flaws but that nollywood is worst though, especially their subtitles

Bro that's what we love about Hollywood movies. Their ability to entertain. These ain't flaws, they are just tricks to give the hero a feel good vibe among his viewers.

I stopped watching Nigerian movie when the voice comes 2minutes after they acted its scene

You're right bro.

All Hollywood action/ British films portray them as super humans and smarter against us Africans.. They'd be dodging bullets, walking through bombs! Indian films worse pass. And Chinese films flying in the air

Abeg make we free our Nollywood hare

voltron14:
Poor grammar usage.

Hardly scientific, hardly enlightening, hardly intriguing.

...And that soundtrack

the day I see Nollywood movie with a science plot then I'll probably dance naked in the market square

Coldie:

USA that just one movie they spend up to 100million dollars. Is what they are using to compare.

That's the yearly budget of some States in Nigeria.

Paranormal activity used roughly 6 million naira to make a damn good movie and they raked in over 1000% in box office and this is a Hollywood movie for that matter and they didn't use up to 100 million dollars ooo, just 15,000 dollars (6-7 million naira).

So now tell me what I'm missing then...

SpecialAdviser:
Who told you Nigerians dont watch Nollywood movies?

I rather watch Charles Inojie and laugh than watching one nonsense horror film that will add negativity to my life.

I cannot kill myself

Na only horror film oyibo de act?

Kendumazy:
Mostly Nollywood movies these days are easily predictable.

Because those are things happening around us!

Believe me Indians can't predict it.

I only watch their comedy film....I prefer Philippines movies....those guys dey act walahi..

KrazyDave16:
I stopped watching Nigerian movies when I noticed that movies that'll end at season 5 (insert confused meme) were reshot but with different name, same villain, same storyline same hero(es) and difference might be just addition of 1 actor (anyone remember shina Rambo?).

simplepee:
Very funny people with their silly mistakes and errors . But







I will never stop watching. If not for anything but for the morals and good lessons. Hollywood don't teach us that.


Bollywood is still my best though

Which morals and lessons are they teaching?

All these nonsense talk, to me Nollywood movies are still entertainment.

Best comments ever

there are millions of mistakes and errors in foreign movies too

"why will Merlin with such a power be a mere servants when he can just use his magic to make himself the king"

so many rubbish in foreign movies too.

So Americans were able to predict Avengers end game?

Even in Anna, that 2019 movie, after she killed the KGB leader...watching that her last escape from under a garage door with a dozen soldiers shooting at her and missing, haba,... i asked myself if they think we're stupid or what

I stopped watching Hollywood when Chuck Norris fell from a 20 storey building, got shot on his right shoulder and still manage to drive his car and escaped from his enemies.

Their robbery operation nd the way they call money anyhow like 500m
I also hate dem coz dey r predictable AF

Try seeing something from "kannywood"

Uchemani:
I stopped watching Nigerian movies when you already can predict what will happen at the end while you just started watching the movie.

I hope you know this is not the criterion of what determines if a movie is good or bad. A good movie should be more interested in how we arrive at that end (which is what makes it unique), instead of whether it's predictable or not. This is what Hollywood has mastered.

I've also noticed most Nigerians have very poor taste in movies. We are plot-reliant and you hear lines of 'so what are we supposed to learn from the movie' to films whose end are open-ended and rather want you to think. I can bet many Nigerians have not seen these great movies (because all they focus on is Avengers End Game and Black Panther):

* Parasite (Korean film)
* The Handmaiden (Korean film)
* Shoplifters
* The Favourite
* Two Days, One Night
* Silver Linings Playbook
* Inglorious Basterds
* Birdman
* Midnight in Paris

Ok all movie industry has the good and the bad aspect.....


At a time Nollywood was improving and they were making it but greed seems to be making them regress..


Be proud of your work....take your time to tell the story... Stop shouting into MICROPHONE.....use new and fresh actors......use a fresh perspective ( a story has many sides).....train and use good talent.... Post production is almost non existent and they overhype the things that they can do.


But Nollywood stories are more realistic than others and you can easily connect to the story been told.


I was expecting people like Femi Adebayo to use their newly found connection to improve the industry.... there are so many scenes that I have not seen ( e.g surgery, - white coat and stethoscope does not make a doctor)
