Personaly i realy don't like watching Nigerian films for so many reasons.
1 Most of the actors are fake
2 No good story line in most of the movies
3 No energy from most of the actors, some (not all) are wack and fake.
4 Most of the movies are predictable cuz by looking at the posters you will be able to figure out what happend or will happen in the movie
5 Just imagine someone actualy writeing or directing a movie from part 1 to part 5 with the same story line just to make money.
Even though i don't watch there movies again the only real actors i admire in the nigerian movie industry are Stella damascus and Richard mofe damijo.

I love epic movies weda America or 9ja

Watch out for part two.

Its big insult to be asking people to choose between excellence to the core and mediocrity to the extreme. And may I correct the poster that we have home videos and not movies in Nigeria?

As much as I hate nollyhood, I will want to commend a few like Jet Amata and Tunde Kelani. They are among the few ones trying to thread the path of excellence.

I prefer bollywood to the both of them.no offence

I hate watch nigerian movie since they turn every movie to part1&2, for instance part1 is one disc and d duration will be 55min, there wil be advert for like 15min frm beginning and at d end of d disc same 15min advert wil be there again. There is no advert in american movie.

couldn't have said it any better

Nigerian

Its so glaring that Nigerian home video which I called glorified modern moonlight story is poles apart from American movie.
Do you want to compare:
1. Scripting
2. Directing of main film
3. Directing of secondary film - effects
4. Acting
5. The cameras
6. Audio equipments
7. Audio recording
8. Editing of picture
9. Editing and balancing of audio
10. Synchronization of picture and audio
11. Duration of recording, editing etc. None is a 2 weeks duration like Nigerians.
Watch: 24, Legend of the Seeker, Merlin, Kyle XY, 007 series, Mel Gibson, Spartacus etc. then you will know what I am talking about. I have over 350 America movies at home, apart from the ones I've watched in the theatre.
I watch quality film and not mediocre and glorified home video made in Nigeria. All said and done, the only ONE that have carved a nitch for itself and stands out in Nigeria is MAINFRAME PRODUCTION headed by Tunde Kelani (TK).ied home video made in Nigeria.

From your options, why don't you include non of the above and others. Because i like Idian Movies. AMERICA full with so much tricks Nigeria movie full of winches and wizards / ogboni and co , But Indian movies is the best

It's obvious y'all haven't seen omo ghetto; Spielberg will jump at the script.

What i.d.i.o.t. would even think there're points of comparison? It's like comparing Barcelona FC to Man. Utd.--------------------ARE YOU BLIND!!!! CAN YOU NOT SEE?!!!!!!

I even prefer Ghanaian movies to Nollywood, that is how bad nollywood quality has become. We need to wake up!
Watch 'checkmate' or 'A sting in a tale' both Ghana movies and see if u can find a 9ja movie that even comes close
Even small Congo DRC there don pass us - there is new movie called 'Viva Riva' Congo producer, all made in Congo, it is the BOMB

American movies involving fighter-jets interest me a lot.American movies involving fighter-jets interest me a lot.

Definitely american. Come to think of it can you imagine a Nigerian Transformer movie?

this thread is bullshit

I watch good/interesting movies
it can be nollywood or hollywood!

Any! As long as Chiwetalu Agu is in it.

lol @ the replies
@ Bowie
All those you mentioned aren't even movies and I never knew Mel Gibson is a movie

I need only indian moviess

u beat me to this.Mainframe rocks!

I usually try to watch the best, if ur mindset is only a particular'wood', then u're missing a lot. Watch good Yoruba,English(ibo),Chinese,Indian,and even Ghanaian movies and you'll be satisfied with varieties cos not all Nigerian movies ar bad and not all american movies are good.

grab your copy now,

Nigerian Film - No good storyline, directing (rubbish), casting (foul), sound and picture (zero), acting (manageable)
American Film - Perfect, perfect, perfect, all the way

TO BE CONTINUED, WATCH OUT FOR PART 3
