Pawang?? Puaka??

i went to a theatre yesterday..can't remember wut exactly the title tho ( mainly bcuz it leaves no impact to me ) it was sumthing on pawang.. bomoh.. sumthing like dat ler..
it started with one bomoh reciting sum sort of mentera in a dark.. a bit scary ler.. but it was spoilt when ths 2 idiots came crawling.. i was abt to scream cuz i tot it was sum sort of polong/puaka or wutever malays call it.. ( i can't differentiate those ghosts.. :P )
for me this theatre banyak dragging.. and the actors/actresses just love to jerit2.. i mean.. faham la kalau diorg nak bercakap dengan penuh perasaan ke apa, but realistik la sikit.. takkan tetiba2 je nak cakap terjerit2? i think i acted better in a play during my PRIMARY school days.. yes, primary..oh well.. besides PGL, (maybe i tak tgk any other malay theatre ) perhaps i cud make a conclusion dat malay theatre is waaaaaayyyy bad.. need to improve in so many ways.. i mean.. fine,i'm not an artist nor i study ths art.. am not sumone in this line pun.. tapi i blv those people yg tgk pun boleh judge.. i'm dissapointed, really.. everytime i gave a chance utk malay movie/ theatre, they always disappoint me.. abis camne i tak gv ths kinda critics??!! bukan semua la.. tapi i cud say 90% mmg tak up to my expectation.. is my expectation to high? i dunno.. maybe.. tapi izzit too much to ask for sumthing yang more fresh.. or AT LEAST more realistic? sumthing unpredictable.. rather than 90-100 episodes kat tv yang u dah bleh agak jalan cerita dia.. aiyya.. biler nak ubah la trend storyline kat malaysia nie..
anyway.. perhaps those movie makers or pengarah teater tu akan kata i nie sumone who dun have the position to judge and giving this kinda commentary, but then again.. klu bukan target u guys untuk memberi impact pada penonton, then might as well u make another SS ( syok sendiri ) movie/teater.. buat menyakitkan hati je org bayar tiket wayang/teater then keluar dengan perasaan "huhuhu..hampehnyer buang masa kat dalam tu" unless those couples yang nak buat wayang sama dalam tu,kan?? so, until i really found a good malay movie/theatre besides PGL, i wud still mengutuk.. :P which if they do understand maksud tersirat disebaliknye, which is make a different, sebenarnya ade lagi org macam i yang mengharap perubahan dalam industri ni dekat tanahair kite nie.. kenapa filem p ramlee sampai sekarang kita tak jemu2 tgk wlu smpai dah hafal skrip dia? sendiri mau ingat la...

I know this post is quite old, but I hope you may excuse me for commenting on this post. <=)

Honestly, the lack of appreciation for the fine arts of theater isn't felt by majority of Malays. I remember reading an opinion in a talk show in RTM2 saying acting in a theater is a form of last resort for acting. It's unfortunate that people can't enjoy much of going to a live theater and just experience live acting. Ask any Malay, and the person would say the definition of "live-action" refers to any film that makes a movie based from a book or comic, yet filled with lots of action.

I agree about the tone of tv dramas or movies in Malaysia in general. It seems to be so streamlined to the point where you know how the story will go from one scene to another. The lack of creativity and originality is what affects these productions to result in boredom.

However, I hope there will be more story makers like Yasmin Ahmad that will attract more interest among Malaysians while they continue to opt for Western live-action movies.
