both party are very wonderfull in their own way, but if i musy choose, btw the men, PETE EDOCHIE IS MY MAN, BUT FOR THE CLASSIC BEATIFULL LADIES ITS VERY DIFFICULT, NOTWITHSTANDING, I VOTE FOR LIZ BENSON
Re: Olu Jacobs Vs Pete Odochie & Joke Silva Vs Liz Benson? by Nobody: 4:16pm On Sep 18, 2012
Now I am changing my initial votes... Pete Edochie (male, adult, best actor) & Liz Benson (female, adult, best actress).

Moderator , pls start counting now so that we can put this argument to bed.

I am sooo loving JOKE SILVA and OLU JACOBS ehn....

One of my happiest moments would be to do an epic alongside the two!

But Liz Benson cuts it for me to oooo...

I'll go for three of them, cause as much as they are all good, they have their strong points...

Liz Benson beats Joke any day
As for Pete Edochie and Olu, difficult to judge
Both are great actors
One thing with Olu is his ability to act in Igbo films

Not sure why Pete has not acted Yoruba movies;may be they tribalistically left him out
For that reason, I will also tribalistically pick Pete over Olu. grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

What Igbo movie did Olu Jacobs act? It seems some of you don't know the difference between English movies acted in an Igbo setting and an Igbo movie.

Olu has played Col. Nsogub in an international movie though.. And yes, he has played movie roles in which he acted as an Igbo Chief or the settings was an Igbo Commuinity.. But Pets roles are always restricted to either Igwes, An Igbo man or a subtle hint of Igbo in his characters

Like i said, there's a difference between a movie that's set in Igboland and a movie where Igbo is spoken.

Pete Edochie and Joke Silva. Olu Jacobs is good but Pete Edochie is the best, he can act anything convincingly. Liz Benson is also good and has more more movie count than Joke Silva, but I prefer Joke cos her acting seems more natural to me.

Olu Jacobs can act in an Igbo themed movie and has done so.. Even that bald headed Delta guy has acted several of such movies, but Pete has never acted in a Yoruba theme movie that I know of.

Meant Igbo-made
Igbo-produced
Interpreting the role of an Igwe or Igbo chief by a non-Igbo is more or less an Igbo thingy, got it?

There's really no Yoruba themed movie for Pete Edochie to act in. Most Yoruba movies are Yorubas through out. You can't also blame him because English Nollywood is dominated by Igbos and therefore most of these movies are set in Igbo land and require Chiefs like Pete Edochie, Olu Jacobs and Justus Esiri(is this the delta guy you were referring to?). But i'll still say that Olu Jacobs, even though not very versatile is still ahead of Pete in that department. But there are other criterias used to judge actors. In this case, when you hear Pete Edochie and Olu jacobs, the first thing that comes to your mind is one chief or rich man in a movie and not another character. So, we should judge them based on that.

I thought you were Yoruba because i noticed it's them that call those movies "Igbo film" even though English is spoken throughout except in minute places.

As far as I am concerned they are Igbo-made movies. A lot of times you even have Igbo language interspersed in them
Re: Olu Jacobs Vs Pete Odochie & Joke Silva Vs Liz Benson? by drshrewd: 5:01pm On Sep 18, 2012
pete and Liz are by far the best. Nollywood got less exciting when these duo started featuring less frequently in movies.they are markedly unique in their acting and they have what every nolly enthusiasts remember them for. for instance pete is remembered for his parables and brevity while liZ is fondly remembered for her interpretation of both very young and very old roles. I really missed these duo cry cry
Re: Olu Jacobs Vs Pete Odochie & Joke Silva Vs Liz Benson? by FSU: 5:02pm On Sep 18, 2012
And why even compare Joke to Liz?
How about Mama Gee Vs Eucharia vs Liz?
Joke is a neophyte. Nowhere near the best, very drab and uninteresting.

I'm judging based of career, achievements, versatililty and charisma..

Olu Jacobs is way ahead of Pete Edochie..

Pete just has a greater following in Nigeria and maybe even Africa.

Pete odochie( for his matured way of acting even when he is suppose to cry he maintain like a big man without problem) and Liz Benson( for a perfect role she played and she fit perfectly into any role she is asked to play)

Re: Olu Jacobs Vs Pete Odochie & Joke Silva Vs Liz Benson? by Nobody: 5:21pm On Sep 18, 2012
Have you ever seen Chief Pete Edochie act in a manner ....promiscus in our Nollywood movies? NO!

That is the significant difference between him and the other Igbo-imitator....Again Chief Pete ( u are the Man)!

Way ahead? Nna na waoo...to tell you the truth, i was even surprised that Olu jacobs is being compared with Pete Edochie. Even though they act similar roles, they're not in the same league. Pete Edochie is a face of Nollywood but Olu jacobs is not. He's just like Enebeli Elebuwa, Justus Esiri and Amaechi Muonagor.

Btw, why would Pete have more following if Olu jacobs possessed all these attributes that you posited. That doesn't add up.
