You know, you guys are thinking so big about 1.5million. I dont think Malaysia ever made millions from a single film because the audience that watches movie are so little. The majority are just buying stoopat pirated DVD or downloading and most malaysians can't even understand english properly and you know, the biggest audience so far is Malay love story which in the first place doesn't attract much from other races (other than Malays) unless its Yasmin Ahmad quality....

so talk about raking in millions? You gotta first start by thinking how to get people from all races to watch your movie

Oh and by the way since we're on the topic... I challenge all movie makers out there...

PLEASE MAKE MALAYSIA'S FIRST FEATURE FILM THAT IS FULLY ENGLISH WITH NON-MALAY ACTORS

p/s: so sorry if u guys feel its a bit too racist a post... I am seriously pissed for the lack of appearance of non-malays on screen and also pissed that there is no english malaysian film

English films? ever heard of Lip to Lips or Spinning Gasing or Ah Lok Cafe or The REd KEbaya?

theyve been there, done that my friend...still cannot sell one...

btw - Yasmin's films that good eh? ever seen Rabun?

and cost of producing at rm1.5m is not big actually...most silly malay films now are at that budget smile.gif

I originally wanted to produce something to beat Impak Maksima or Revolusi Drift KL but I think my small video didn't quite turn out to be how it was supposed to be
