IN the world of film, one year goes by really quickly for films, actors and directors alike. With the advent of the 140 characters, everyone’s memory span seems to be thinning and in a jumble of movies it takes much more to stand out now.
While compiling our #2016YearInReview lists, we were shocked that many of the actors and films we thought about were more relevant last year than they were this year. It’s a scary world for filmmakers and the race to stay relevant and on top of your game is forever constant.
This year we took a break from the NR Awards which we usually do at this time of the year to take a closer look at what 2016 has brought the industry (and it sure has brought a lot).
The year 2016 for Nollywood had a lot of FIRSTS and a lot of GREATS and we will be exploring many of them in our list. The year also had its own fair share of foolishness and failures (and again we’ll be going over all of these).
Our very first post will be OUR TOP 10 BIGGEST NOLLYWOOD HITS OF 2016! As our year in review goes on we’ll do our very best to keep it evenly split between the big budget cinema films and our dear old home videos. We’ll be exploring the biggest actors of the year, the biggest newbies of the year and those trends that went away or became rooted in 2016, right alongside the biggest disappointments of 2016 and the surprise bests from the year.
