Kaycee7: Then Scot Adkins can play Bruce Wayne when given the time and resources? (i digress) You are now going into detail what makes a nollywood flick, its a sum total why a top nollywood star wont star in hollywood movies. they dont give time, dietitians, or physical trainers in nollywood. they will have to start their acting career all over again to reach this level. this is my stand on this issue. |

internetspeed12: Are you guys an affiliate of Triple Frontier? I really like that movie. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Kaycee7(m): 9:57am On Jul 13, 2019 |
pryme:And my stand is that, there are talented actors in Nollywood willing to start their careers all over again in Hollywood, if given the opportunity. |

Kaycee7: do you think the top stars are willing to start their acting career all over again with the level of success they already here? just think about |

pryme: You guys should cut Nollywood some slack na. We are still at the subsistence level, as indeed all other areas of our National life. Some actor, or a studio, or a national event might soon get the attention of the mega studios. Collaborations will be forged in time. Then and only then will true works of art start coming out of our Nolly. Until then, appreciate the little efforts of these brave film makers who put their little resources, and indeed risk penury to produce what we judge so harshly today. Give it time...... |

pryme:My brother, dollars and naira no be mate. Who no like better thing? Who doesn't want to be pictured at red carpet events and invited to popular talk shows? Talmabout success. Nollywood stars don't even fit the profile of successful to me. |

Unionised:The Nigerian economy and mentality will have to improve if Nollywood is to grow. Why would anyone invest massive budgets to make a movie that 2/3rds of the population will download on pirate sites? Our cinema culture needs to improve before our movie industry can stand a chance. |

Unionised: You are right, But sorry I dont like Nollywood movies, i cant stand blatant copy and paste. I cant stand the fact that i can summaries a movie in 5 mins of watching it. I cant stand the look of trying to be something we are not. I cant stand the way they we ignore our history, Even as old as that movies was i can never forget it (am talking about Things Fall Apart) why cant we make more movies like this? this the kind of movie that hollywood will be begging to be a part of, cos this one is our history we are the only ones that know the story. And By Jupiter we have lots and lots of stories, a great movie start with good stories, we dont have good stories WE HAVE GREAT STORIES. Can you remember the stories your grandparents use to tell under the moonlight in the village? now try to recreate that. I cant stand blatant fake acting. Am sorry Hollywood has ruined me, I cant unsee the hollywood movies i have seen, sorry cant deal. |

Kaycee7: I dont think the cinemas here are doing badly, I can still remember a packed hall when Wedding Party premiered in the cinemas here. I just feel the industry's regulatory body is sleeping on the bicycle. |

pryme: Every good story feels even greater through the lense of nostalgia. A publisher places a prohibitive price on rights to their "treasures" Funding is too scant for a nollywood producer to "waste" on a "good" book/story We will get there someday.... |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by pryme(m): 10:38am On Jul 13, 2019 |
Kaycee7: But am telling you the way nollywood stars will reduce when you give them hollywood style requirements will suprise you. there is work in acting o, dont think hollywood stars are paid millions for doing something easy. |

Seven psychopaths 8/10 A unique narrative, witty and self aware of it's own goofiness, with many fvcked up individuals, no forced humour or expository characters. Well casted and edited, and well paced (though I felt pacing a bit faster wouldn't do any harm). An overall enjoyable picture that will live you entertained by the end. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Beware spoilers below (can't help it, this part is so damn good ![]() Imagine being stalked for years to the point of madness, where you think your only solution was suicide, because only those who take their own lives are guaranteed a place in hell and you think that's the one place your stalker won't be able to follow you, so you pull out a knife and slit your throat; but the last thing you see as the blood spills is the stalker reach into his pocket, bring out a knife of his own, put it to his throat and slit (and he smokes a cigarette while the blood spills from his gullet). ![]() 2 Likes 1 Share

losprince: I remember laughing hysterically with friends at this particular scene. The humor is so gloriously dark. ![]() However, it's nothing compared to the graveyard scene. Rockwell's narration of the gun fight he scripted may very well be the funniest thing I've seen in a movie. ![]() |

pryme:Do you think Avengers: Endgame grossed so much locally because the cinemas were packed for one day? How many middle class Nigerians can afford to re-watch a movie at the cinema? In developed countries, cinemas are like the mall. Even poor folks can afford to go there. Here, cinemas are a luxury. A statement of class. The industry's regulatory body can't handle this alone. 7 Likes |

pryme:A lot of talents that also wanted to act but didn't want to be a part of the joke that the industry is today will replace them. I know friends who were considering going into acting but after seeing what even the cinematic A-grade Nollywood had to offer them, they just changed their mind. One of them said he'll still consider acting if he goes to the US. To him, it was better playing a tertiary character in Hollywood than a lead character in Nollywood. 2 Likes |
