Yeah i can see this plausible to happen only if we are living in the opposite world where Malaysian movie industry does not suck.

Dream on Malaysia, we had enough with your hantu, rempit and 'romantic' movies stereotype and you will never succeed with these kinda crap. And heck there are already a lot of movie with much meager budget scale made it to Cannes Movie Festival, large budget does not guarantee the success of the movie.

just my pragmatic, morning two cents.

touche, i admit my bad for not investigating.

yes, i admit that i do enjoy some movies which feature him as the director eg. Papadom and Sumolah but the stereotype is too strong in our local movie industry, hence my negative comment.

Well let's just say my hate towards local made films is overly gratuitous to the point that i have come to conclusion that every each of them that were made after the 90s are utter garbage whether they do or do not include the common Malaysian tropes that are rehashed again and again.
