* Face me, I face you

* Two cockroaches in Africa

*Two rats,

*Spanner,

*Computer

*The Driver

*Igala,

*Ijele,

*Olodo,

*Mumu,

*Wawa,

*Igodo,

*Igudu

*Shigidi

*Wakadugu


11. A movie has not been made if at least one
actor/actress has not twisted his/her lips to speak
wrong phonetics.


12, You are in love. You want to take your girl out
and the best place you take her to is:


*Mr. Biggs/Tantalizers: where you'll most probably see an ex while feeding each other.

*The beach: where it is imperative that you ride a
donkey and carry her playfully.

*Or the best: take her to buy some new ugly clothes.


13. An Igbo movie has been made if
* You visit a babalawo
* A fleet of cars is shown off at regular intervals
for a total of half of the movie time.
* Kanayo O Kanayo is in the movie. Pete Udochie is
also there too!
* To get rich it is mandatory you join a cult


14. Gun shots and knock-outs sound the same!


15. Sometimes the title has absolutely nothing to do
with the movie and other times, once you read the
title and see the poster you know it all!!! (Also the
soundtrack gives you a headache because it just
narrates the whole story repeatedly - so much for
suspense and intrigue!)

20. When you are shot in the chest, it really doesn't
matter; your head will be bandaged! Same for your
legs!


21. When advertising a movie, you really should shout because, people are deaf?



22. When you are extremely poor, you will still be
able to afford- very good furniture, T.V., but you
won't be able to send your kids to school.


23. Most especially in Yoruba movies, your gateman
must be inefficient and comical. He MUST dress like a freak, be rude to all your visitors and never mind his business,


24. My personal favourite- the bad guy always dies or gets caught by none other than the police

Re: 24 Things I've Learnt From Nollywood! by osisi5: 5:04pm On Sep 12, 2007
How can't they blurr out those onlookers  standing  in street corners and watching.
It is so annoying.

The same scene of cars going down some  highway in Abuja is shown over and over and over again.

Somebody always carries belle from  someone else's husband.

all the women always have an attitude.

The houses are always mansions complete with maiguards and servants.

and the poor ones are dirt poor.

everybody yells at everybody

Actor's that are always bad.
Patience ozonkwo, Jim iyke, pete edochi, Segun arinze. Actor's that are always good:
Desmond elliot, Rita dominic, Ramsey noah, Fred amata. I would search for more i can't remember because nigerian movies suck and i dont watch the *screams when saying last sentence*.

Never bother myself watching anything that comes out of nollywood.
Nollywood is where you are shot without blood stain.
The actress looks like a rat out of soup pot ,with there rubbish called make up .
oyie:

i feel you,you could have been more correct.

another thing must that white foam always come out of their mouth to show they are dead(its always there no matter the cause-be it posion or bullet or even car accident!)
[b]Very correct at times i wonder if they are all epileptic before the accident.[/b]
