In Bruges-
A dark, bloody, comedy of errors. There was nothing too sacred to be portrayed, including a child with his blown open (basically anathema in Hollywood and literary arts) and the thorough ass whopping of a woman.

"A child with his blown open. . ."?

pryme:


Really?

Have you been to a Nollywood camp before?
Has any Nollywood actor/actress landed in the hospital because the hazard of playing a character?

Do they take the character to their personal lives that they even stop to responding to their own name?

Has they been any drastic transformation in their physical attributes?

Can they study a new language for the sake of their job?

Have they been a drastic change in accents in stereotypical character?

You think it's all about money?

You cant give what you don't have no matter the amount you are paid.

The most successful Nollywood stars have been acting like they do for more than a decade and they are famous here, so you think you can suddenly turn them into the Hollywood way of acting like a light switch.

So you think they will suddenly switch from a habit that has acquired them fame and fortune at the drop of the hat.

You talk about a studio that will bring out the best in them, so suddenly your brain started working. the studios here have already made them famous and rich, so what are you blabbing about?
Why should they switch to another studio that will risk their health, take so much time and energy from them?

Am sure you won't understand where am going with this.

A Serious Man

I know that this film had some sort of message going or something, but for the life of me, I couldn't get past the fact that the protagonist was a friggin weakling. In fact, I'd say if there is any message this movie tried to pass along, it's a lesson on how not to be your wife's_bitch, cuz the protagonist in all intent and purpose was his wife's_bitch. The meandering plot went nowhere at all.

Thanks. I have downloaded the bolded because of the great reviews I saw online. I will look for the others to downloaded.

Martin reminds me a bit of Tarantino, mostly because of the often totally irreverent nature of their characters' dialogue. No subject is too taboo for them to discuss. It is very unique, albeit jarring

troubleseller:
Kaycee and pryme, you guys need to understand, the first thing is the script. Maybe when there's a script that requires Nollywood actors to go 'method', then we might be able to judge better. 93 days which was about Dr. Adadevoh's role in the Ebola scourge (hope I got her name right) cast Bimbo Akintola in the role as the doctor. They don't look alike but effort was made to similarize the two people. If we have more roles that require the actors to undergo a transformation, it might also help. So first the script requirements before anything else.

Toy story 10/10

Seeing this movies as an adult for the first time I miss not seeing it as a kid, I can only imagine how awestruck I must have been and how inspiring and sophisticating I must have found it.

Such brilliance, hilarious, touching, amazing story, satisfying ending and the voice cast was excellent.

Would tackle the franchise now.

Kaycee7:
How many action movies does Nollywood make? Do you think Hollywood romance flicks and dramas land anybody in the hospital?
Has any script or character called for any drastic change in their physical attributes?
I don't know about you but I've seen some actors portray various accents from thick Yoruba accents to Ijaw accents.
Give them a role that requires them to study a new language and see if they won't learn it.
Method acting is very rare, even in Hollywood. Not everybody is Daniel Day Lewis or Christian Bale. So don't make it sound like there are a lot Hollywood method actors. Method acting is even more popular in Britain than the US.
Are you trying to say that in the whole of Nollywood, there's no one with a smidge of acting talent? This defies even the laws of probability.
You know what's better than fame and fortune? More fame and fortune. We're humans. We can never have enough. Even if they're as successful as you imply in Africa, a bigger pay cheque and audience is enough to motivate the willing.

Do you know how many Nollywood actors endanger their lives when they play those "witchcraft" and 'Ritualist" roles?

Do you even want to know what their eyes see that ends them in "deliverance" sessions?

u don know, u u don know wha is goin un

haq haq haq

Perhaps, the Coen's weakest film of those I have seen.

Pls movie houx ....is there any WhatsApp movie group available to join ...

You are changing the initial points I raised, I said top Nollywood stars, these set of people think they know it all, you cant teach these old dogs new tricks.

However I agree that we have upcoming actors that can/will match Hollywood, BUT THEY CAN NOT BE THE TOP NOLLYWOOD STARS unless they will have to unlearn what they think they know.

I disagree that we dont have movie scripts that require drastic transformations.

Compare these 2

300 - did you see how the Spartans looked?
now compare that to
Igodo (I dont know if you have seen this movie - its one of the few Nollywood movies liked because was more like a folk tale).

We are not just there yet, for us to get there we have to send people to Hollywood to learn the ropes.

AfricanGenius:



I am interested too.

MJBOLT:

kindly tell us how they endanger their lives?
