Great Malaysian Movies Not Nominated for Oscars

I think Malaysia doesn't get the respect it deserves as a serious movie making country. I was particularly disappointed to see the Oscar nominations didn't include a nomination for Datuk V. K. Lingam in the category of Best Actor in a (Melo)Drama or a nomination for Mr. Chua Soi Lek in the category of Best Actor in a (Self) Comedy.


Surely Datuk Lingam bragging about his ability to influence the appointment of Judges in Malaysia and Health Minister Chua's personal medical check up of a pretty female voter are Oscar winnable performances?


Equally disappointing is the fact that neither movie made it to the Best Foreign Films category as well. Although I think a movie must be nominated by its national society before it becomes eligible for consideration in the Best Foreign Films category. And with 2 outstanding movies coming out of Malaysia last year, I can see how it was hard to choose between them.

I hope Malaysians don't lose heart over this lack of recognition and continue to produce excellent new movies in 2008 and beyond. I personally can't wait to see what they come up with next.

Santa Claus Detained

Christmas may never be the same again for millions of children when the U.S. Department of Homeland Security confirmed today that on the night of 25th December 2007, they detained Santa Claus for trying to enter the United States.


A spokeman for the Department also confirmed that Santa is currently being held in Guantanamo Bay together with all other bearded foreigners and no date for his release, if ever, has been set.
