ItsModella: Why is it that the soundtrack reveals the plot?
Why is it that the fathers have a life span of 60 years?
Why is it that all problems must be spiritual and the only solution is a pastor speaking balderdash?
Why do the movies have close to 6 parts? only for the story to be crappy.
Why must they all be marketed and distributed at 21 Idumota road Lagos, 49/51 Upper Iweka road Onitsha and 9 Pound Road Aba?
Why must we Grab Our Copy Now?

Why? Why? Why? My questions are endless...no be today I wan start.
The reason for the ' WHY ' is exactly what you just did. Doing exactly what another person has doing without trying to be creative. Follow follow, copy copy. Why did u nt start the thread?

mumumugu: Nigerians can neva apreciate their own. But find faults
. Mehn that's a big lie!!! Our movie reflect what happens in our society! We only act films where girls shake their asses, or native doctors (juju) or secret cults ,its true this movies expose bad ppl doings but it also reveals new tricks for them to use!! Example , I have never seen a native doctor b4 except in 9ja movies but I know and am kinda scared (most Christians too) of them!! A white man will enter his shrine and scatter but we africans can't deer try that becus we are afraid of the aftereffect, in short our MOVIES AFFECT OUR MENTALITY and CHANGES WHO WE ARE" am a proud nigerian but what is wrong is wrong!!!

30minutes adverts, 15minute movie end of disk A.
Disk B: 30minutes adverts, Cast(names) The End.

Why are they always facing the camera when leaving the set?
Why will a woman wake up on bed in the morning with night gown, fresh make up and jewelry?
When Jide Kosoko was shot at the back, he was trying to reach for the bullet hole, scratching his back.
Shot in the head, bandage on the shoulder.
Best Nigerian Movie ever is AIYEKOOTO. Everything was just perfect. Rating: 98.

And when a poor man suddenly gets a job, immediately he owns a well furnished mega mansion and big cars Ah ah, so fast??
And why is it that when a rich man loses his job, suddenly everything disappears, even his clothes and he begins to wear rags Na so money dey take finish and clothes dey disappear??

@Fhemmmy: I used wonder about the same thing. Women wearing makeup in the house 24/7. I thought it was a tad unrealistic.

It is good we can easily point out the faults; in the same strength we shd contribute to building the industry. Hollywood was not built yesterday!!!

A simple first step we can take: Stop purchasing pirated movies! We are directly and indirectly inovloved in the quality of our films (either as a consumer or producer).

Na we all be government. Period!

Re: 22 Important Questions For Nollywood by chinosxl(m): 3:54am On Oct 31, 2012
I have to put the blame on the directors/producers. i saw a movie (will post the name when i remember) where Mercy Johnson called chevy avalanche a toyota tundra, not just once but 3 freaking times and no one caught it. I wonder why every parent in Nollywood movies call their child "my son" or "my daughter" over and over all through the movie. Also, Tv and furniture placement are out of place where u have to turn ur head 180 to 270degrees to get a glimpse of the tv. I see a lot of improvements though compared to 6-10yrs ago.
Re: 22 Important Questions For Nollywood by Nobody: 6:56am On Oct 31, 2012
As for the Nigerian films having so many parts, it's pretty disgusting. They'll produce part 1 to 3 of a movie and then produce continuation of the movie another part 1 to 3 with another title. It's all because the producer wants to make more money. This is the reason why each part will be only 25mins each. That's why I don't watch Nollywood movies again. As for the yoruba movies, I stopped watching them long before I stopped watching the english ones. I hate the fact that they solve all their problems with 'juju' to the extent that I watched one that a pastor gave a girl red, yellow, blue, and all sorts of colours of candles to put around her house. Tell me is that christianity or jazz. It's all very annoying

Nope!...u got it wrong bro...aint u tired of having d same thing..with little or no improvement at all?...a situation where a 6yr old can tell u(with certainty) how a movie(he didn't see)will end is quite pathetic!..let Nollywood script writers up their game joor!
