Golden Icons Academy Movie Awards 2012 Nominees by ijebabe: 8:49pm On Aug 21, 2012 |
Nigerian Films nominated for the 2012 GIAMA include ‘Unge’s War, I’ll take my Chances, Two Brides and A Baby. According to the GIAMA Awards committee, surfing through the enormous amount of movies that were submitted, most especially those that were produced in the Diaspora was quite challenging to watch. However, there were a few movies that stood out and are worthy of being applauded and rewarded. Some of these movies include Bianca, Secret Past, The Mechanic (Who is the Man), Paparazzi, Black Money, and a few others. This is a clear indication that movies produced in the Diaspora, especially in the United States, continue to improve over time. Being the inaugural award ceremony for GIAMA, only films that were produced and/or released between January 2011 and June 2012 were considered eligible for review and nomination. The winners will be announced at a sparkling, star-studded ceremony on October 20, 2012, in Houston, TX and will be hosted by Nollywood Untamed Actor Jim Iyke.
