Hehehe, that is so true. Yeah Nollywood is improving really really fast and

there have been great improvements considering it just started in 1992.

Can you compare Living in Bondage or even Violated to any of the new

movies? I guess the next step is to get movie studios instead of borrowing

people's houses and hotels.

Well i dont know if this is good news as well all know this might be due to volume(quantity) and not quality.

How about as Oscar(nomination will do) for a nollywood production...Sitanda maybe?

Yeah i also read about nollywood being number 3 in da world but their

ranking was based on quantity. They said nollywood produces over 80

films a month. Hehe, about da Oscar; some nollywood movies might

deserve it BUT i know hollywood isnt too pleased with nollywood cos

they believe nigerian films are responsible for spreading "African stereotypes"

across da world. Which is kind of true, but i dont see how it is their problem.

They shud let us deal with that.  ::)  ::)  ::)

African stereotypes? who and what are those? How do they behave? Is it good or bad stereotyping? Why is Hollywood not happy then?
Oh and that atrocious word Nollywood.. I cant stand it. c how the course of history shapes things? If Nig hadnt been named so by that silly (Lady Lugard?) we wouldnt have Nollywood as the name of the nigerian film industry. How about some better sounding name like horrorwood?  :P

LOL.
Who 's the Einstein that coined 'Kannywood' then?

[bakangizo]

Bad stereotyping; as in Native doctors, babalawo, black magic, armed robbery,

prostitution, violence e.t.c. all the kind of things u see in nigerian movies that

are exported all over the world. The articles was in Times Magazine i think. But

I cant remember which one. The Hollywood critics are not impressed. but that's

oky, we don't need them to succeed do we?  8)  8)  8)  8)  8)  8)  8)  8)   8)  8)
