 Social Media And Insults Is Like 5 And 6 -Shehu Sani  “Peter Obi’s claim about young people being paid to insult others on social media is not far away from the truth; but another side of the truth is that the same insults also come from the young supporters of the opposition. “Social media is not for the faint hearted. Its not a street for gentlemen. Social media and insults is like 5 and 6. If you say what the Government doesn’t like, you can be targeted. If you say what the opposition doesn’t like,you can be mobbed.  “We live in a hostile society, intolerant of contrary opinions or dissenting views.” -Senator Shehu Sani, April 2025

NOT ALL FILMS ARE CINEMA-WORTHY, SAYS KUNLE REMI. (PHOTO).


 Not all films are cinema-worthy, says Kunle Remi


Actor Kunle Remi has shared his expert insights on the distinct differences between cinema-worthy films and those suited for television.

In an exclusive interview with Hiptv News, Remi highlighted that the term “cinematic” is often misused, with many filmmakers and audiences confusing TV-quality productions with true cinematic experiences.

He stressed that creating a genuinely cinematic film requires a specific level of quality, style, and effort.

The actor praised director Kunle Afolayan’s work as a prime example of good cinematic value, noting that Afolayan’s focus on cinema might not translate to success in TV film direction.

Remi also shared his ability to recognise when a film is rushed or poorly executed, even if labeled as cinema-worthy.

He encouraged emerging filmmakers to embrace constructive criticism and not take offense at feedback from critics or audiences.

According to him:  “Not everybody understands what cinema is. I don’t think a lot of people understand it in the first place, that is why you have a low-budget film put in the cinemas when it’s not even cinema-worthy. And you see people come for you. There is a difference between a cinematic film and a film for TV.

“The moment Nigerians and filmmakers understand that we won’t be having this conversation. Kunle Afolayan for example, does cinema if you look at the quality of his project, the style and effort put into it are cinema. If he does TV films, he might not do so great because he is probably focused or trained to do cinema films.

“TV films are maybe cable films or online TVs and you can tell this was done in 5 days. I’m an actor and I can tell. Sometimes I’m doing a film and they tell me, it’s for the cinemas and I laugh. I know I’m not supposed to but, it’s funny.

“I can’t discourage anyone cos it might be a starting point for some people do not be angry if people come for you or movie lovers share opinions of your film or critics talk about it cos you can’t then compare it to a Hollywood production”.
