Just watched Scarface and Forrest Gump recently and it got me thinking that these films have so many great quotes and I have never watched any Nigerian film with any memorable quote. Is it that we don't have great writers or are our films not just that good enough to be memorable?

"Don't forget - I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her." Julia Roberts in Notting Hill.

'Forget this whole thing...forget the entire f.u.c.king idea because that must have been f.u.c.king crazy because I'm so much crazier than you!...'

'I am the crazy slut with a dead husband...ah ah ah!!'

- Jennifer Lawrence in Silver Linings Playbook

@OP, well, I believe it has do with our writers. But before they even get to this level of giving us memorable quotes, they have to improve in their basics of writing including plot and twists, character development. Nigerian writers still have a bit long way to go.






Btw, I am a scriptwriter too

If you love movie quotes then you can start with the godfather part 1,2 and 3.

My bet quote in the movie. I'll make him an offer he can't refuse
