folake4u: Well, it is a dicey subject to me, sha. A very dicey subject with its pros and cons and gray areas. But for now, as at now, without mincing words and dancing around, Toyin Abraham is someone that deserves legit canceling so long as she doesn't right her actions publicly, in my books. |

olab059:Those days, people use Eyo festival to do evil stuff and get rid of their enemies. Ask those Iya Eko, them go give you history taya, my stepmom sold clothes at Balogun market till her death last year. So we get lot of gists from her. Eyo as a cultural festival is not bad at all. 1 Like |

folake4u: Shanty town started quite well but lost their way after the first episode! The story/plot was just too thin to keep up! They need to quit rushing their script writing! It always shows in the quality and outcome of their movies! Movies like Black Panther and Lord of the rings, the writing can take as long as 10 years to complete... Even after, editing and improving can take further 6 months to 2 years before they begin filming! Even casting can take them years too! 1 Like |

Persephone1: Sorry about your experience. 😂😂😂 LoL. A girl did that? For a movie? 😂😂😂😂 Swears o. E shock me. And the funniest thing was that she wanted to appeal to people to watch. Like, why would you insult people and then still expect them to show support in pushing the movie's ratings up? |
Re: Gangs Of Lagos: Ratings And Review by folake4u(f): 2:27pm On Apr 10, 2023 |
Magnoliaa: Hmm. For the fact that you said it's a dicey subject, it has spiked my curiosity. Let me know about the pros and cons either in your diary entry or the Pinkpill thread. I'd love to read your opinion on it. Lmao. As long as Nigerian youths live, Toyin Abraham is on the wrong side of history. 1 Like |

folake4u:Thank God I didn't see Chief Daddy , my big sis saved me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 . I think that's one movie it's review gained popularity. It was widely trashed. Honestly I love those their lekki and third mainland movies best. I saw "a simple lie" yesterday and I love it. Very simple movie with lots of laughs 😂 🤣 😂 🤣 😂 4 Likes |

Angelfrost: I see. But asides them rushing their script writing, they also need to hire qualified script writers. For real. Yes, that is true about Hollywood movies. Even though they take up to 10years to complete their movie, it doesn't mean the movie will be a huge success though. It could either be a huge flop or success. |

folake4u: God will help them. If you said this on Twitter, I can already picture hoe they'll be dragging you for being against "our own" or call you an hater. As for the cancel culture topic, I'll see. I may write something on it in my diary. 1 Like |

Even sabinus script writing better pass this on3. Take out his funny roles. Sabinus is a master in facial expressions of any kind. Same for his entire crew. All talented. |

ednut1: See. I HATE the way they portray those their fight scenes. Ughhh. Lai shey Chris Hemsworth abi Jamie Foxx. Why are will they be fighting like that? I have not seen the movie to know how the fight is like, but I can easily guess that it'll be like that nonsense they did in Merry Men. 1 Like |

Persephone1: See ehn. I was pained oh cos one of my friends hyped the movie that time and we all went to watch it at the cinema. That day sef ehn, cinema full and tickets were sold out quickly. After the movie ended, I was so angry and told her never to pick movie for us to watch again. I can never forget that day. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Na God just save you that day. Wallahi. 😆😆 You see!! I miss the days of those Iroko TV and Ibaka TV. The movies were enjoyable and plot nice as well. 1 Like |

folake4u: This is true... That's life, but most of the time it pays off big for them. Nigerians just never take the time to do proper preparations. Everything is always a rush for us. Look at the other terrible part of Nollywood! The one we call "Asaba Movies"! Where you have actors filming up to 4 movies in a week! Like WTF!!! 3 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Gangs Of Lagos: Ratings And Review by Magnoliaa(f): 2:38pm On Apr 10, 2023 |
Angelfrost: Although, the kind of story being told too will determine the length of filming. Something taking only a short time doesn't have to be rushed, and that's okay. |
Re: Gangs Of Lagos: Ratings And Review by Angelfrost(m): 2:40pm On Apr 10, 2023 |
Magnoliaa: I agree totally! But, 4 movies in a week?!! Come now! My high school play of back in day of just 20 minutes took at least a month to fully prepare for! |
Re: Gangs Of Lagos: Ratings And Review by folake4u(f): 2:40pm On Apr 10, 2023 |
Angelfrost: Yes. It usually pays off for them in the long run. One interesting way I rate their movies is by going to the Wikipedia page and check how much money they invested in the movie and also see if their profits matched their investments. I also check how well the movies faired in the Box Office in Asia, America and Europe. EVERYTHING is rush for us. It is very annoying. They want to maximize quick profits at the expense of quality. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣you say?? 4 movies in a week? Are you serious right now? That's interesting. 1 Like |

Angelfrost: I am just reading this well. I been think say you classed EB as being amongst the nonsense movies. And see, you're spot on with the analysis. I don't know maybe it's because people have been telling them to emulate Hollywood, that is why there are literally going to bring other cultures and realities to replace our own here. When we say "copy Hollywood", we are not saying in terms of stories. I don't even need anything deep or fantastical, just give me something simplistically Naija. While the old Nollywood had some fairly reasonable stories but lack a great cinematography, these new ones now have that, but lack stories. Original stories. |
Re: Gangs Of Lagos: Ratings And Review by folake4u(f): 2:46pm On Apr 10, 2023 |
Angelfrost: Wow. That's crazy oh. Those movies would be nonsense as usual. Lmao with camera phones?? 😂😂😂 And e nor go be better phone oh. The quality go be like say them pour oil for the phone camera lens. |
