Good question Boss. I would also like to have an idea what the standards are to make an informed judgement.

It is a fact, these Twi movies stink, and just because so many average, classless and backward people watch it, does not glorify nor make it typically Ghanaian. The truth about these Akan style movies is that like everything else in Ghana, it is proliferated to the extreme, such that it becomes almost stupid and absurdly primitive.

You same darn hypocrites will blame government for all our ills and the ministers and civil servants, and police too. But fatc is Kumasi(Ashanti Twi) movie industry falls in perfect sync with all our dysfunctional habits. Some, actually many of you, constantly have the temerity to compare western cultures and civilizations to ours, each time your want to justify your personal ethnic egos. Ghana is a multi-ethnic ad multi-lingual country. Twi is not our national language, besides it is not sophisticated so why force and pretend that every Ghanaian should patronize it.

The fewer the merrier, and it is not the quantity, but the quality we must seek. Every freak in Ghana can eat maggot infested foods from the market and streets, and still walk around smiling and showing their white teeth, that does not make it healthy or right, and I will never participate. Nor ride that stinking tro-tro and piss in public. I will remain a Ghanaian for life, and not a beast who happens to reside in Ghana.

Kumawood? is nonsensical, idiotic, clownish, stupid, nasty and disgraceful...flush it!!!

WHAT THIS MARKETING MGR SHOULD BE SAYING/ASKING IS THIS...ARE THESE KUMAWOOD MOVIES MAKING/BRINGING REVENUE? IF THE ANSWER IS YES. THEN ADD THEM TO THE MOVIE LISTINGS. SILVERBIRD ARE DUMB N DOING THEMSELVES AND THE GH MOVIE INDUSTRY A DISSERVICE. I THINK ITS TIME THE GOVT STEPPED IN AND MANDATED THESE CINEMAS TO ACCPT/SHOW ALL GH MOVIES DIRECTED/WRITTEN BY A GH OR WITH GH ACTORS. I TOLD YOU SO WERE SHOWN IN MOVIE THEATRES IN GH BACK WHEN I WAS A KID GROWING UP. SO IF SUCH A LOW BUDGET/QUALITY MOVIE LIKE I TOLD YOU SO, COMPARED TO TODAYS STANDARDS. CAN BE SHOWN IN MOVIE THETARES. THEN WHY CANT YOU SHOW KUMAWOOD MOVIES? SILVERBIRD SHOULD FIRE THEIR MKTING MGR BECOS SHE IS DUMB. SHE IS PREVENTING SILVERBIRD FROM MAKING MORE MONEY. IF SILVERBIRD SAYS THEY WONT SOW KUMAWOOD MOVIES. THEN THESE ACTORS SHOULD PULL THEIR CASH. BUILD MOVIE THEATHRES ALL OVER GH AND SHOW ALL MOVIES INCLUDING FOREIGN MOVIES IN THEM AS WELL. THEN, THEY SHOULD LIST THE NAME OF THEIR MOVI CHAIN ON GSX. THEY WILL GET MORE INVESTORS/CASH. THEY WILL USE THE CASH TO BUILD BETTER PRODUCTION HOUSES/STUDIOS, EQUIPMNT, FILM SCHOOL, BUILD MORE GH MOVIE THEATRES AND EVEN EXPAND OUTSIDE GH....TO WEST AFRICAN/ECOWAS NATIONS

what exactly are the quality standards required by the managers of Silver Bird cinema? What in the view of Silver Bird cinema is lower quality and sub-standard movie?

This is not a nursery school.
Have you heard of HD,3D or 4K?
Dolby 5.1,DTS,anamorphic lenses and sound stages etc,etc???
Movie making is not for kids.
