Having a cinema is one thing; attracting moviegoers to the cinema is another thing.
- Ekenyerengozi Michael Chima
Nigerian film distributors and exhibitors banking on the followers of the A-List actors on Instagram and Facebook has not attracted majority of them.to the movies they featured in. Because, many the actors buy followers, views and likes and majority of the followers are not going to the cinemas to spend N4000 to watch a movie that they can watch later on #Netflix with a subscription that is not up to N3000 monthly, including hundreds of other movies and series.
70% of the #Nollywood movies playing in the cinemas in Nigeria are actually teleplays without cinematic quality.
Dramatic scenes are often mistaken for cinematic scenes in Nollywood. And actors having a shouting match in a scene is not an #Oscar performance, but may be good enough for an #emmy . Nollywood is not Hollywood.🤩
Frankly speaking, Nollywood movies are best viewed on @netflix, @showmaxonline and cable TV channels.
