VillageBoi: True but I think it sells both. The costumes + make-up help sell each character to us; to me it's more than just him changing his voice. Most of 'our' actors are exactly the same no matter what make-up or costume they wear.

True word

lol...this is quite nice. he even changed his voice for each xter. This video also reminds us of the importance of make-up wc I think this video sells rather than acting. it really helps us to believe our actors as the xters they are playing. nice one.

[quote author=Donalð Genes]just click on 'AUTHORIZE ONLY'AND allow it to load,then save[/quote]Tnx for d reply. Is it after choosing a means of accessing my profile lyk facebook that I would click on 'authorize only'?

Hello. Tnx to the OP for dis info. Bur pls, I'm aving a problem with the profile stuff wia one wud choose one among d options: facebuk, linkedIn or profile shud be updated by site itself. Pls, how did u go about it?

Abbey2sam: Useless tread

Clap for yourself! You just stupefied me! Just when one has thought he/she has seen enough stewpeedity on NL, some ppl wud just put in efforts to outdo others.




More foolishness to your elbow.

Whether the idea of the talent hunt is original or not isn't my concern. But, don't we have enough talent shows already?

Can't people come up with shows like debates on reasonable topics that are of concern, maths quiz etc., just lyk dat Zain Africa challenge?

Entertainment is a secondary thing to the economy, whether we agree or not. Let's promote shows that also encourage knowledge and scholastic abilities.

We don sabi say we get talent for naija die!

Well said.

VillageBoi: ^^
Hopefully we don't forget such topics - https://www.nairaland.com/1173052/on-stage-versus-on-screen-acting#13990752

LoL

Genevieve luks gud...and I love that hair other posters are complaining about!

Op, you are high. Is this your New York?

tony ayo: When will Nigerian writers be original for once. I see a Nigerian version of Desperate House Wives with a little twist, with the storyline read, the movie don't deserve to be viewed in Cinemas and the producer know it. As for me...I ain't watching.

Lol...wicked pesin...I get what you are saying...Uche reminds you of 'Mary Alice', while others are 'Susan', 'Gabrielle', 'Bree' and 'Lynette'.

But I would still lyk to watch it. The inspiratn from the story may be from 'Desperate Housewives' (which I don't tink makes it less-original), but the way things happened and interplay may be quite different.

Abeg, no judge dis film by its cover...biko.Pls try watching dis naija version.

yuzedo: Bro, can i applyed? i went to uncle emeka grammer school. i have waec 3 sittins, and i leave in Banana Island. plis af not eat good fooood in last 3yrs, i rely needed dis job. tenks.

Why do u always comment lyk someone that's high on weed?

In addition, your comment above isn't funny, though you tried. Ode!

HERO: Jack dawson in 'Titanic' and Jack Bauer in '24'. I don't know what's wiv these 'Jacks' sef. Michael Scofield isn't a distant second.

HEROINE: Clarice starling in 'Silence of the lambs'.

.

VillageBoi: Not commented on this because I'm still not sure what it is.

Does anyone know if this is the filming of a stage show or specifically an excerpt of Macbeth made as a short Nigerian film?

I think it should be the latter, Villageboi.

By the way, this lady in the cast 'Kemi lala-Akindoju' is extremely talented. She is very sound on stage. She is among Naija's best actresses, though she maynot be a movie star yet.

Airforce1: Shina please advice your light skin fat frog girl friend to hit the gym.. Veyi veyi important

Come on, don't sound lyk an hater. Some lyk it big; odas lyk it small. D gal fyn jare.



By the way, who is Shina Rambo? Is he the last child of Sylvester stallone?

biolabee: Excellent imagery... but err.. were you kunke in the story when you were growing up

Lol. I am not Kunle oo...and though, my mother is an 'aso-ebi freak', she wud definitely not do it at the xpense of her children. It's fiction. Tnx for d comment.

I completely agree wiv d OP's view. Slimyem, abeg shift jare, seems lyk u re one of d 'aso-ebi freaks'.
Please, enjoy this dialogue I drafted for the purpose of this thread:

IYA DELE: ah ah, se ko si? Hope no problem?

DELE: Rara ma. Em, it was headmaster that flogged me at skul today for not paying up school fees. He threatened us not to come to skul tomorrow except we come with it.

IYA DELE: Aww, pele omo mi. Sorry, ehn? That your headmaster is wicked oo. Doesn't he know how hard it is to get 10000 naira in this present Nigerian economy? Sorry my dear. There is no harm in you staying at home for a while. You can even use that time to rest till your father gets money. Okay? (Dele nods quickly).

IYA DELE: you can even stroll with me to farm tomorrow, okay? That's how you become a very strong man.(Dele nods.)

******NEXT DAY*******

IYA KUNLE: Ah, Iya Dele, e kasan.

IYA DELE: E kasan ma, e n le. A ma rii yin. Hope no problem?

IYA KUNLE: no problem oo. Didn't you hear that my mother died days ago?

IYA DELE: Aww...I'm so sorry. E pele. Iya agba ti ku...

IYA KUNLE: She don die be that oh.Lyf is really short. (Brings out some yards of 'ankara') Ehn...Iya Dele, this is the material we picked for the occasion.

IYA DELE: Ehn-ehn...but you've not told me the date for the burial and...

IYA KUNLEInterrupts) I have to be sure you're interested in our aso-ebi before inviting you.

IYA DELE: Of course I am...

IYA KUNLE: (smiles broadly) That's very gud. So, do you have the money now? This material in my hand shud be enof for u nd ur husband. That's 10000 naira.

IYA DELE: right now? (Iya Kunle quickly nods). Ah, o ga oo...

IYA KUNLE: And that's what everybody wud be wearing oh, Mummy Dele. 'To-match' ni lojo yen o.

IYA DELE: ah, I will buy naa. I think I have some money I've been saving inside my room. Wait for me, let me get the money. My husband and I must attend this one.

Charles Shaw: NL is a faceless forum where one can entertain all sorts of comments.
Besides, comments am reading r simply for Kicks,
So why r sum peeps acting all rigid?
Make me wanna puke @ ur inflexibility

Charles Okafor abi shaw...(Wateva)...u re right dat NL is a faceless forum but dat doesn't mean ppl shud just spew trash about their fellow human beings, jokingly or nt. Not everyone has d patience for such display of stewpidity.

Calling ppl 'animals' is out of d park and doesn't go down well with ppl dat have 'self esteem', weda it's a joke or not.

It's not even child-like, but rather childish. I can't believe these are people that would soon be fathers, uncles etc. and can't treat ppl with respect, even amdist 'yabbing'.

Come on, I fit do 'aro' naa...(Evri OAU stdnt shud undastand dat)...but I believe every conversatn here shud come with a level of maturity, either witty or not.

Nevertheless, I won't forget this is a faceless forum where any godamn person dat can press keyboard can comment, so, it's left for the sane ones to ignore and continue life...as if all is well.

But we don't need to deny the truth in what he said. Bad belle plenty no b small, even for this nairaland.

Afam4eva: Why do you think so? It seems SHOLAY was the last Bollywood movie you watched.

Lol...your reply is quite creative. I've seen 'Three idiots', 'slumdog millionaire', 'don', 'robot' etc.

But I must say, Hollywood is far ahead of them due to many factors such as culture. They rarely perfect romance like it's supposed to be, not that I blame them, but I don't just buy it.

The way they do their action movies shows they are still behind hollywood, though kudos to their effort.

The way they insert songs to movies anyhow makes me lose track of the flow of the movie somtyms. And surprisingly, evrione seems to know d dance moves for any song, including passers-by.

Their plot is very nice but the way it's told I must say it's not good enough, at least from my perspective. Holywood knows how to tell a cliche story in different amazing ways.

There are other reasons also but not to write an epistle (which I sense I've written already ), let me stop here.

But nevertheless, I love bollywood too.

Hollywood is definitely better, though Bollywood is growing.

To be alone is better than to be in bad company.

Alenkakent: Winnie, update pls. Oau peeps, what's new?

I too haven't heard a confirmed outcome of yesterday's senate meeting oh. God help us.

omar22: What happened to Jenifa or Mirror boy?

Who is Jenifa? Is she an oscar-winning actress?

What is Mirror boy? Is it a nickname?

Sensual Man:
OFKOS DADDY WIL QUENCH UR THIRST

DADDY REALLY NEED TO QUENCH UR THIRST NO BE SMALL

Guy, I must say, the way you crack your jokes reeks of immaturity. No insult intended.
