Oh I see.I never watched the movie btw,is it good?

Great computer graphics. Mixed reviews about the storyline though. But it's about an alien invasion of Johannesburg. The Nigerians hustle for the Aliens - typical.

It's like masturbat*on!

Ibrahimanis once told me of Nigeria's impressive percentage implementation of its budget which was a report coming from the same government.It would have been more better if an outside source said of it!

Nollywood movies are crap,they are ladened with poor soundtrack,horrible accents and amateur actors.

It's only in Nigerian movies where you get shot on the leg but blood profusely flows from the mouth.I saw the trailers in YouTube and the movies looked uninspiring as they lacked enough creativity!

@Bolded

In SA, I've noticed it's mostly poor and less educated folks that enjoy Nigerian movies. Not to mention people with a lot of time to waste coz those films drrrraaaaaaaaagggggg.

Tinapa studio Calabar, Cross rivers states
Biggest studios in Africa The Ultra modern Tinapa Film Studio located within the Tinapa Free Zone & Resort, provides first class production and post production support services to both local and foreign film, television and music producers using the best equipment available in the industry.

EbonyLife TV, Desperate Housewives Africa Season, The Governor, Desperate Housewives Africa, Cinderella, Dynasty and Melrose Place are large Nigerians Block busters movies are produce here

You countering me with failed projects??

1. Tinapa: Nigeria’s $450 million white elephant

10 years after it opened, the resort in southeast Nigeria is a ghost town and has become a symbol of monumental waste.

2. EbonyLife TV - taken off DSTV in Southern Africa due to very low ratings.

3. Desperate Housewives
is a global franchise. That way, SA can also boast about bringing u people Big Brother Africa, Idols, Survivor, The Voice, etc.

edon21:

there you go again. you are talking about external influence. can't you develop your own industry?
I've never seen any South African movie before. why?
because they are not popular
meanwhile, a certain time in history scenes of marvel films were acted in Nigeria

1. I spoke of Oscar wins and nominations for SA. That's not external influence but recognition.

2. Hollywood and Bollywood filming in SA is a vote of confidence in our technical expertise and infrastructure.

3. You've never seen a South African movie b4 cause u in constant search of Nollywood rubbish. Check out District 9 (u guys banned it in Nigeria due to jealousy, it was an international blockbuster), Tsotsi (Oscar winner), Jerusalema (about Nigerian criminality in SA), There's a Zulu on my Stoep, Mr Bones, Sarafina, Yesterday, Long Walk to Freedom, Cry the Beloved Country, Lollipop, uCarmen Ekhayelitsha, etc etc. Give me one Nigerian movie in this league, known across the world and Oscar nominated. You just flooding the market with crap.

4. Hollywood blockbusters shot in SA: The Avengers, Tomb Raider, Hotel Rwanda, Blood Diamond, Invictus, 10000BC, Blended, Doomsday, all Mandela films, etc etc.

5. Cape Town and Jo'burg have also been used to represent:

Chicago in Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House (2002)
post-apocalyptic Columbia in The Lost Future (2010)
early 1930s Los Angeles in Ask the Dust (2006), and many more.

Ibrahimanis:

Let Hollywood and Bollywood come and act in South Africa, we'll develop our own industry.

You can get nominated for foreign awards all you like, after we've developed our own industry, we'll introduce our own awards to recognize our artists.

Oh wait, we've done all that,

1. Nollywood is the biggest movie industry on the continent (by value)

2. It's the most prolific

3. It's certainly the most popular

4. The African Academy Movie Award is the biggest movie award on the continent right now. (Founded by a Nigerian)

I kept shaking my head when reading about South African movie industry. Imagine "in 2017 a total of 222 films were released, of which 23 of those films originated from South Africa"

The market share of your movie industry in your own country is 4%

Awarding your own mediocrity. Recognition by one's peers means u are an international player. That's what South Africa is!

In SA we'd rather watch 4% quality than 100% rubbish.

They have to shoot their music videos here,if not then where will they get beautiful & curvaceous video vixens to dance in their videos? have you seen how flat their women's behinds are?


Why did they ban district 9?

Bcoz they were portrayed as drug dealers, pimps and cannibals. It hit home, they just couldn't handle it.
