When you put up something interesting that has to do with the topic, wake me up. I can't stay up all night reading these comments that seem to be written by a year 4 old kid. . . . My tomorrow starts early.

As for the thread about a celebrity, you're invited to increase the number of the posts on it. [See her frothing at the mouth. Ran outta words? What the heck has that gotta do with this issue?] Whether I spend the entire day creating threads on NL or not, I get paid and I still live fashionably with N20 in my purse. Don't envy me, even though I understand why you do.  

Lol! You two are not serious.
Snthesis, Just get well soon.

emmatok:
hey Missy ★ B

I do not understand why you fighting over this issue .

We are just putting things in perspective here. OK!

I am NOT fighting. Probably I should start using the Grin and Cheesy emoticon to prove that. On a second thought, No.

aminalib:
oh missy, how can one be quiet in this post, do u hear me speaking, or u are asking me to stop typing, typical

We are now arguing semantics? I'm trying so hard to be nice, believe me.
If I have to tell you that, 'be quiet' could also mean 'don't be turbulent', then it's obvious I've been wasting time on a female version of Mr. Cork. You are slow!

aminalib:
lol we made it your concern? because she must be talking about you i do the maths.?.u spend much time on here but learn how to spell and speak properly u meant math, and by the way i can respond to anything i wish but u know that already , lol it's funny when people take things online so serious, lmao,

Like, seriously? Coming from some like you? It's not the night, babez.  I wouldn't frig around pointing out the ''perfections' in your posts. Modify them, if you will.
Do the maths, I wrote. And so? You want the 'S' in bold? I will put it, gladly. 

If I took the topic serious, you would be in bed crying, by now. Truss me [sic] 

aminalib:
of course everyone has different priorities

You can now be quiet!

OAM4J:
The OP complain is about maintaining such lifestyle with "credit card debt of over $5000"

Bawomolo, you have the answer.
Prolly the N20-in-the-purse Lady maintains such a lifestyle on debts too.

OAM4J:
And believe me, there are many women who do that. It is plain stupidity.

Probably some women do. You see it as plain stupidity, I also do but what is to say it's really a silly thing to do?

aminalib:
@ missy b, sweetie do not put me in your mess this is a post and u wrote and i am responding, who says it is my concern, it must be yours as well

You and Tolu have made it your concern, obviously.
Count your posts on this thread and count mine, then do the maths.

BTW, I am also only responding to the post. I quote you doesn't mean you must reply me.

aminalib:
umm because if you can afford all of that then you should have more than $45 to your name at a given time,

She said $45 in the wallet, not to one's name. How can you tell, what she has in the wallet is her life savings?
Now, I ask -  What wrong in having $45 in the wallet while dressed expensively?

aminalib:
the point that people spend money like crazy on credit or even money that they cannot afford to spend and end up with nothing at the end of the day all in the sake of fashion.

Another question, how is that a problem to Ms. Tolurara and/or Ms. Aminalib?
Do you understand that people have different priorities?

Bawomolo don come again!
The amount in your purse is irrelevant to how you're dressed . One of ma points, on this topic. BUT, I think you should direct that comment at Tolurara. I only followed her example.
Ask her how it's possible to maintain such a lifestyle with just $45 in the wallet.

Weave $450, Gucci bag $375 ,Prada shoes $485, Vera Wang shades $180 , Fendi wallet $120, House of Dereon Bangles $85, Movado Wristwatch $165, the list is endless, Amount of cash in the Fendi wallet $45, credit card debt over $5000

emmatok:
WHY ARE SOME WOMEN HERE SO DEFENSIVE.

Some  women are criticizing  tolutara because they are also guilty of been Materialistic .

In Nigeria here you see mothers borrowing money to buy ASO EBI,SHOES.BAGS e.t.c  just for a day burial ceremony or OWANBE PARTY

While their children are suffering . And some peps are claiming they are enjoying themselves or living life to the fullest.

Abba, do you think joy,happiness and looking good in life is a result of how much money you spend buying all these things?

I don't know where Y'all meet these women that would rather look posh than feed their kids.
Ladies work hard too and if they decide to invest their hard-earned money in
'self-maintenance', how is that anyone's business except the individual in question and those her actions affect directly?

A question for the Poster -  What's wrong in wearing Gucci bag, Moschino Jeans, D&G sunglasses while having just N20 in the purse?

tolutara:
Wow I seriously see u are a fan, No going there with you, why?, cos it is so not worth it, ,

Nice decision.

Lmao! Mean you!

BTW . . .You're in hot soup. Divorce straight away. I caught you flirting today, right?

tolutara:
the bolded sounds silly to me

Your noise sounds even more silly.

tolutara:
Accolade from the NL men?, are freaking kidding me?, Why would that be necessary to me.

Only you can tell. We're listening, Ms. thrifty, submissive and [what are the other qualities again? Remind me, please.] [img]http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/29.gif

tolutara:
If you are contributing to the topic, Don't shoot the messenger, just respond to the message ,favorable or not.

No, you cannot dictate to me, what and whom to address. I chose to air my opinion on the intent of the post and the post itself. That's that.

tolutara:
I say the below at the risk of being told the reason why I am voicing my opinions is because i can't afford it. Let put that aside for now.

I feel a lot of women should stop being so darn materialistic. Gosh!

Weave $450, Gucci bag $375 ,Prada shoes $485, Vera Wang shades $180 , Fendi wallet $120, House of Dereon Bangles $85, Movado Wristwatch $165, the list is endless, Amount of cash in the Fendi wallet $45, credit card debt over $5000. SMH.

I Can understand women wanting to look good, but at what expense?. Some women have no savings for a rainy day especially when they have kids depending on them but will spend all of the above reckless in one day. Scourging through endless magazines trying to stay fly ,when u have real women making real dough.

I actually feel the most sorry for the men. I can understand the conflict of wanting your woman to look really good but at what expense? I feel that the average woman as a consumer Mentality, always consuming but hardly producing,

My humble opinion BTW I am a woman.

Apparently, you're  trying so hard to get accolade from NL males?
Wait for it . . . It shall come , soon.  

It's as simple as it sounds, mind your business. Some people are highly fashionable, some are less and others are not. Know where you belong, remain there and let others be.
It's only commonsensical to, as they say, cut one's coat according to one's material.
Let whoever fails to live by the maxim bite the bullet.

Sorry?

Lmao! You're not serious.

I wouldn't want to worsen your condition. Heal first, and Missy will be all yours.

Hilarious!   

Ibk, come out and answer, kia kia.

Which Matters More?

As the dust settles from the uproar created by the entrance of uber-productions; Ije, Bursting Out, and Kajola, an uneasy calm rests over the Nigerian movie industry. Quiet and uneventful, the months following their release have left movie buffs and critics alike wondering- is this the calm before the storm or is there nothing else?

Starved of fancy movie premiers to either get all dolled up for or scour the internet and magazines for pictures, I imagine that the ‘adoring fans’ of Nollywood find themselves facing a withdrawal syndrome of sorts. “They must feel as let down as I do” I muse as I continue to wrack my brain for some interesting hot topic in the world of Nollywood, ably encouraged by the ‘gentle’ prod from my editor, ‘Dammie’ and I fail to hide my exasperation at the lack of activity in the movie industry as I come up short. I find myself wondering every other passing minute- are our fresh blood producers and directors employing a strategic method to make us hungry for more, or are they all out of ideas? To get some answers, I do what every 21st century, technology savvy human would, I hit the internet… hard, to find if anything noteworthy has happened but managed to fly under my radar, but further compounding my issue, I find nothing. At this point my editor’s prodding is not so gentle, and so I add agitation to my increasing pile of writing blocking issues.

With no new movies on the horizon, no Nollywood/Ghollywood battles, and no confused actors to focus on, I finally stumble on a question- “what makes a movie, the actors, storyline or the producers/directors?” An odd question you may think, don’t they all contribute one way or another to the final output? But as I continue to mull it over, I come to the conclusion that one of these elements has a more powerful effect on the essence of a movie. Never one to force my opinions on others, I will go down the list and highlight salient points.

The Actors

These are the faces that sell a movie. More often than not while looking for a movie to watch, your eyes go first to the cast list before moving on to the ever so short description of the story. Other than the fact that their performances give life to a director’s vision, actors also lends a certain amount of credibility to the movies they feature in (established actors that is). Depending on the movie industry, an actor is graded either by the amount of movies they’ve been featured in, their performing dexterity, or how many awards they have received. From these grading, they gain the acclaim with which they in turn lend to the movie they are linked with. Let me explain with an example: you are walking or driving down the street, and you glimpse a movie poster, the title is forgettable, but then you see Genevieve Nnaji’s face and you think “this should be interesting to see”. More often than not, the actors pull in the crowd over and above all the hypes, so you make the decision to see the movie because the actor is ‘good’. But an actor’s contribution goes beyond looking pretty, they still have to act. Their interpretations of the characters they are portraying and the way in which they bring them to life on screen is a huge part of a movie.

The Story Line

I love a good story; romance, comedies, even thrillers. For me, a good movie is one that moves at a reasonable pace, not too fast, not too slow. It should have a clear story line and should be decked with intrigue that will keep me glued to my seat till the very last minute. In my past ranting, I have complained of the lack of stimulating storylines in the Nigerian movie industry. The story line is also an important ingredient in the total package of a movie; it satisfies the less visually gratified movie watchers like me. Seeing as the storyline would only be fully discovered after the attention of the movie watcher has been grabbed, I think it plays second fiddle to the cast. However, the superstar actor can only hold your attention for so long, check out movies like Gigli, neither Jennifer Lopez’s or Ben Affleck’s A list status could help the movie because its storyline or execution was poor. It then goes without saying that when a movie has no focus, the audience will tell, and you can’t fool them for long with those faces they love to hate or love (depending on the side of the fence you fall).

The Director/Producer

Faced with the task of interpreting a script and making it real, the director is a key player in the making of a movie. Often the most important person (with the least airs) on any movie set, he is the person that even the actors aim to please. He controls the movie’s artistic and dramatic aspects, while guiding the cast and the crew. The movies we watch are the visions and interpretation of the particular director. He determines the pace, tone and setting of the movie, he also determines camera angles, lighting and effects. He basically breathes life into a production.

Now that we’ve gone through each of these important components of a movie production, your guess is as good as mine which one is the most important. But just to make sure, it’s THE DIRECTOR, in my estimation anyway. Even though each play an important role in the making of a movie, the director’s input is all encompassing. So, this not so startling revelation can only mean one thing, our directors need some directing. Even as some of our crossover actors/actresses have begun to dabble into directing, it is clear that a gap exists in this area and it needs to be filled.

As I wind down my musing, I am greeted with the news that finally Nollywood has stirred, though I am a bit puzzled as to how to classify it, good or bad. Ini Edo, yes Ini Edo will be releasing her first try at producing, as I try hard not to pass judgement, I can only hope that it is a step in the right direction for the industry in general.

What?
