Funny how you reply, and i quote:-
One very glaringly obvious example is the local audience in Malaysia in accepting their own cinematic work. See how rubbish like Cuci and countless other garbage-bin material like it gets celebrated as box-office champions while Yasmin Ahmad's offerings gets "cricket-chirping" response to say the least. Does this reflect upon Malaysian psyche and their level of thinking? Water-levels have never been any shallower.
High-def? Yes please, but i would never want to go to the movies watching crappy Apek comedy movies no matter how high-def his movies are, or how "defined" his nostril hairs are in high-def. Sorry, crappy stories will not attract audience no matter how gee-whiz-bang jawdropping it looks, without a palatable engaging story. Movies are about , in its literal mean, telling a story.
