Nollywood And Their Ridiculous Titles by OM3G5(m): 12:49pm On Aug 11, 2010 |
First of all i think the title of a movie should reflect amply on what the movies is about, and should be deliberately misleading as to render it watcher thinking something else judging from the title only to discover that the flick is about another thing else entirely and at the same time the title should have a connection with the movie. for example take a movie like 'Death Sentence' we all know death sentence is a punishment of death, received in a court of law due to some grave or heinous offense but that movie starring Kevin Bacon wasn't about any court sentencing anyone to death as some may presume judging from the title, but instead, it was about an easy going, dutiful family man whose life just turned worst after the death of his son. So everyone, please post your Nolly-wood Nigerian movie titles you here, only the ones you consider to be ridiculous and explain why? These are some I can remember: 1. Innocent Criminal How can a criminal be innocent, a person is refered to as a criminal only if indicted of a crime unless vindicated. So why shouldn't the movie be titled: The Vindicate or Vindicated 2. Private Sin Are sins categorized onto private and public sins? 3. I[b]Indecent Desire[/b] How can a desire be indecent, the nature of ones desire can range from lust for power, sexual perversion, greed, etc desires relates to wide spectrum of human emotions, who has the right to say some are indecent while some aren't. 3. Critical Decision Some decisions could be very critical to make, I haven't watch the movie but i am very sure the title would have nothing to do with what the movie is all about because it is a characteristic of Nolly-wood movies. |
