Nollywood wahala!!!
My Brother sent this to me by email and i thought it was hilarious!!!
24 Things we've learnt from Nollywood
1. Every problem you have is spiritual.
2. In every romance movie, someone must die.
3. It is possible to hit a person without actually touching them!
4. Anyone who gets hit by a car dies immediately.
5. Poisoned food always tastes better.
6. The best way to make money is by visiting a 'Babalawo' / joining a
cult / sleeping with rich men.
7. One of a pair of twins (identical or not) is born evil.
8. There is never an end to your suffering, except death!
9. With a pastor ... all things are possible.
10. A movie can be titled anything... such as:
*The boy is mine,
* Face me, I face you
*Two rats,
*Spanner,
*Calculator,
*Igala,
*Ijele,
*Igodo,
*Igudu
*Shigidi
11. A movie has not been made if at least one actor/actress has not-
'shelled', twisted his/her lips to speak wrong phonetics'.
12. You are in love... you want to take your girl out, the best place you
take her to is...
*Mr. Biggs/Tantalizers: where you'll most probably see an ex while
feeding each other.
*The beach: where it is imperative that you ride a donkey and carry her
playfully.
*Or the best: take her to buy some new ugly clothes.
13. An Igbo movie has been made if ...
* You visit a 'Babalawo'
* A fleet of cars is shown off at regular intervals for a total of half
of the movie time.
* Kanayo 'O' Kanayo is in the movie. Pete Udochie is also there too!
* To get rich it is mandatory you join a cult
14. Gun shots and knock-outs sound the same!
15. Sometimes the title has absolutely nothing to do with the movie and
other times, once you read the title and see the poster you know it
all!!! (Also the soundtrack gives you a headache because it just narrates
the whole story repeatedly - so much for suspense and intrigue!)
16. A love story has not been produced if it does not have one or two of
the following actresses-
* Stella Damascus
* Stephanie Okereke
* Genevieve Nnaji
* Omotola Jalade
* Rita Dominic
17. The police are extremely 'efficient' unlike their counterparts in
real life.
18. An actress can wear the same hairdo for more than a year and even in
longer flashbacks.
19. It is permissible to wear very dark shades at night!
20. When you are shot in the chest, it really doesn't matter; your head
will be bandaged! Same for your legs!
21. When advertising a movie, you really should shout because... people
are deaf?
22. When you are extremely poor, you will still be able to afford- very
good furniture, T.V., but you won't be able to send your kids to school.
23. Most especially in Yoruba movies, your gateman must be inefficient
and comical. He MUST dress like a freak, be rude to all your visitors and
never mind his business.
24. My personal favourite- the bad guy always dies or gets caught by none
other than the police- LOL!!!!

"Alfred-o Alfred (Alfred!)
Alfred-o you say you wan pikin (Alfred!)
You dey carry second wife dem get bele (Alfred!)
No be one, no be two, no be three, na four you come dey get (Alfred!)"
Can you guess what this one is about? At the end, the two wives were pregnant again with twins (making 8 babies). This particular movie was hilarious.
Isn't fiction wonderful...yet people forgot that fictions are just that: fictions! This made me laugh too! :-)
"You mean u haf a sheid for me?" asked the man. He turned to the little boy and said " I haf offended yor moda"
This phrase and the scene out of a really bad nollywood movie remains vivid in my mind after at least 12 years!!!!!
Hilarious, well done marin!
