From Munir’s point of view, a few bumps here and there is par for the course. He isn’t going to drive his dumper truck to its doom. He wants to use it as a weapon.

Nollywood is not bigger than Hollywood. At least do a little research before you repeat this tired and misguided notion. Movies in Nigeria are made with digital cameras (or handycams) and are not shot on film. They are the visual equivalent of soap operas like The Bold and the Beautiful, or Days of our Lives. A typical Nigerian movie is produced and marketed in under 4 weeks (this includes casting, shooting and post production). The typical budget for such a movie is between $100,000 to $400,000. Using this as a yardstick, it is easy to claim they produce more movies than Hollywood. The numbers might be more, but the quality and technicality is non-existent. They are not movies. They are literally home-made videos, which is ironically what they were called before they were ‘rebranded’.
So please do a little fact check before you just state what everyone claims.

If money and technology are the only criteria of a good movie, then no one can beat Hollywood! You don’t need those to tell a good story.
