@Orikinla:

err. . .hope you didn't forget the Ti Oluwa Nile series and Saworoide. Those were classics.

Donzman:

You guys are idiot including threadstarter himself. Obviously, Nollywood movies are geared towards the mainstream which will not always appeal to the so-called critics. That isn't what this thread is about, this thread is about the actors/actresses. Listing Yoruba movies does not prove your point, listing the actors/actresses who are better will do it. It's a pity you really can't because they are not better.

Again, why will you be better at something but receiving lesser compensation for it?, This is analogous to what you see in music. You have the "underground" musicians claiming they're better than the mainstream musicians because the mainstream musicians are commercial. Think about it, these mainstream musicians have gone through the "underground" scene, they've efficiently allocated their talent to something that will compensate them more. They're clearly better than those nuts who are stuck doing "underground" music even though 99% of them won't admit it. This same logic applies to Nollywood or any other entertainment industry. You can go about criticizing what they put out as more commercial and mass appealing but you cannot deny that they're more talented than those below them on the wage scale.There is a reason why they make more money, they have better talent and it's quite simple.

Only dumbasses (read Orikinla) will believe that someone who makes less is better than someone who makes more. Why do you keep earning less if you're better?, Again, stick on topic, we're discussing actors/actresses and not the movies. Yoruba movie actors are not as good as their colleagues in Nollywood for reasons already stated. Quit listing Yoruba movies, list these actresses who are better than the top actors/actresses in Nollywood. You can't even follow your own thread?, What an Igbo man!

ronkebaby:

it is obvious this Donzman just likes to feel impt. and if proving rebellious and on the opposite side of this arguement would make him feel noticed, i guess it is ride on for him. but it is a pity the more he tries, the more fool he makes of himself. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, what a pity!

Donzman:

Sorry you feel that way, I just don't think Yoruba actors are better than their Nollywood counterparts. Try again Mama Ronke!

the thot is enough to give u sleepless nights. ride on dear brother. meanwhile your stand has been defeated as the popular opinion in this forus already swings to what the author of the forum said. hope u get some drugs to calm your nerves.

Donzman:

I just don't think Yoruba actors are better than their Nollywood counterparts.

Orikinla has listed not just what he believes, but with facts to support his arguments

Donzman:

Joke Silve and Olu Jacobs?, I give him Pete Edochie, Amaka Igwe, Hilda Dokubo, Alex Osifo.

Donzman:

What are these facts you speak of?, Movie names? I can list Nollywood movies if you want some.

Joke Silve and Olu Jacobs?, I give him Pete Edochie, Amaka Igwe, Hilda Dokubo, Alex Osifo.

Comedians?, Igbos take the take EASILY. He can't find comedians to match Zebrudaya, Jegede, Clarus and Gringory. Funny how he completely neglected that post after making the comment that there are no Igbo comedians apart from Nkwm Owoh. Stand up?, I gave him Basketmouth, Juluis Agwu, Okey Bakassi, Funny how your "Mr Fact" never replied to those.

Are these the facts you speak of?, Maybe you should look up what facts are!
