I don't remember most films here, but I can categorically tell you that Isakaba and Aki na kwa will never depart from my heart.

Somebody even forgot to mention Desperado, men! cool those were films.

Unlike the ASUU strike wey dem dey produce for nollywood now a days.

And talking of yoruba film 'koto aye' was one hell of a film most folk wouldn't forget in a hurry.

The children of nowadays really need to go back to the past and have a taste of nollywood.

dejt4u: The list is incomplete without the following;
1. Arelu,
2. Ogbori elemoso(epic movie by lere paimo),
3. Afonja(the legend- wit peter fatomilola as d main actor),
4. Saworo Ide nd agogo eewo (produced by mainframe),
all ajileye series(eran iya Osogbo, koto aye, ibraheem omo orukan et all),
5. all epic yoruba movies are the best so far.. Believe me on this!

Also, some mount zion movies..like ultimate power(agbara nla-wit characters lik ayamatanga), esin ajoji(my favourite), captives of the mighty, hunting shadow, blood on the altar, etc
Pls we are talkin of REAL Nigerian movies here not your amateur Yoruba stage dramas. Tenks.
