Swing And A Miss: Half Of A Yellow Sun by severee(m): 1:30pm On May 23, 2015 |
narrator the movie starts with queen elizabeth's visit to nigeria in the 60s back when she was hot Queen elizabeth hi guys i'm here to sow ethnic discord among nigerians oops! i hope i didn't say that out loud narrator then skip to the terrible opening song with really gross lyrics thandie newton hi guys i play a nigerian in this movie even though i neither look nor sound nigerian i guess i'm only here because i played love interest to chiwetel ejiofor in the movie 2012 talk about lazy casting anika noni rose Hi i'm thandies wooden and forgettable sister who is disgustingly vulgar and gives up a*ss on the first date thereby giving the world a wrong notion about nigerian girls narrator next we see both sisters having dinner with their father who is kissing up to a minister for one of those vague contracts nollywood never explains zack orji Hi guys this is my only appearance in this movie which means that i'm so irrelevant to the plot that if you actually sneezed and closed your eyes you would think i wasn't in the movie at all Anyway i play a multi-millionaire and CEO of Dorochukwu biscuit and soda factories? damn what is with chinamanda always limiting Nigerians to biscuit and bubble gum factories in most of her stories? chinamanda adichie I'm trying to be realistic zack orji oh thank you mrs condescending just so you know, nigerians can actually be CEOs of hedge fund companies and media corporations chinamanda adichie shhhhh! I'm saving every bit of implausibility for chiwetel's character zack orji o why didn't you say so? alright back to the plot of me pimping out my daughters for a f*cking contract tina mba i dey here too o thandie newton Er i don't wanna work with your minister friend, i actually applied to teach sociology at the university of nigeria nsukka i start first thing tomorrow zack orji Loooool! Really?! You applied to teach at a federal university in Nigeria with no teaching experience or a*ss kissing and you got the job just like that? thandie newton Er.....*shrugs*i guess zack orji Besides you are actually giving up a life of luxury to teach in a Nigerian university, any character development that inspired this? thandie newton we were hoping no one will pick on that einstein zack orji Whatever, what about you noni? Wanna take one for the team? anika noni rose I plan on running the family biscuit and soda company zack orji but you don't have any experience in managing a business or any knowledge of the Nigerian market anika noni rose Well tough t*tty cause you don't have a right hand guy or some sort of understudy to take over the company, now first order of business is to act like a spoilt brat and f*ck up dad's chances of securing that contract zack orji On second thought, why don't you go mingle in the independence festivities i'll kiss his a*ss alone narrator thandie and anika go mingle in the OCT 1 celebrations where anika meets a dude who is charming her panties off Joseph Mawle Vodka and a dry martini shaken not stirred , hey there pretty lady the name is Mawle, joseph Mawle and i'm so suave anika noni rose Hmmmn a bond reference allow me to reciprocate by dropping a funny bond girl name The name is joseph mawle Hmmm good thing i just wanna hit it and quit it so i won't have to remember that name anika noni rose So what do you do mr. Mawle joseph mawle I'm a british writer anika noni rose Or are you? jospeh mawle No i'm just a british writer anika noni rose But.........but i saw you in cold light of day and you totally kicked a*ss in that movie joseph mawle oh my dear you'll be so disappointed in this movie i put the punk in p*ssy punk b*tch. anika noni rose Rrrrrrrrrrrr! Here's my number call me sometime i'll be in my wide screen office over seeing the city of port harcourt joseph bawle Pffft! what?! Your biscuit and soda factory has an office with a view?isn't that for people with real jobs? anika noni rose *scowls* narrator next thandie goes up north to visit her suprisingly poverty stricken aunty gloria young gloria young hi guys the fact that i'm totally irrelevant to the plot and i live up north is totally innocent i promise narrator next we are introduced to chiwetel ejiofor chiwetel ejiofor hi guys f*ck what i said on the ellen degeneres show, i'm totally Nigerian today and you can see that from my stereotypical Igbo accent because yea that is how all Igbos talk right? Anyway i'm a federal university single professor in his thirties who still teaches B.sc students, who lives in a kick-a*ss bachelor pad with a man servant and plays tennis on saturdays i guess chinamanda went over board with this one right? john boyega hey guys remember me from 24 season 9 as the drone pilot who barely said sh*t? Well in this movie i'll be playing a Nigerian boy who barely says sh*t chiwetel ejiofor So thandie's gonna be coming over today now i know you can't cook so rather than buying food i suggest you poison my date with bad food so we can at least give the audience a laugh or two To be continued... 3 Likes |

DuchessLily: I won't lie the movie was good, the cinematography was good(even though the cinematographer wasn't Nollywood) The scores and sound effects were excellent, the theatrics were moderate The storyline was ok The only part that missed it's mark was the plot E enter confirm bush One moment it's a love story then it looks like a love triangle then it looks like a disaster movie there was too much going on that even though it was a particular family that was the focus, nothing changed about them at the end of the day and too many loose ends 1 Like |

Csami: ah ah oga have mercy, the film try small na It was good enough to make their money back i'm still puzzled as to why it performed so poorly at the box office na even Nigeria push e sales up I guess it's one of those movies that focused more on its look than its content |

"WHITE MAN GOOD BLACK MAN BAD" That's the message of the whole movie that's why every black guy in the movie is either a d*ck or irrelevant where as white is associated with everything holy joseph mawle That will explain why "santa baby" is playing in the background when it's not even christmas (They f*ck) narrator thandie gets back with chiwetel thandie newton oh what a pretty baby i will take after her i love your hairy chest let's go jump bones real quick chiwetel ejiofor Ok so you didn't get back with me when i probably slept with susan wakomo but you suddenly love me again when you find her baby here? thandie newton oh don't worry about me i've totally taken all my anger and frustration on joseph's d*ck so i'm all good chiwetel ejiofor you what?! narrator chiwetel zooms off to joseph's home joseph mawle hi chiwetel chiwetel ejiofor get your d*ck out of my girlfriend you f*cking Equinsu Osha bye(drives off) joseph mawle You drove all the way just to tell me that?
