Made by Malaysians: Mat Luthfi's Video Response

If you guys really follow the Malaysian Youtube community... then you must know our fellow vlogger, Matluthfi90. Recently, this is what he vlog about...

So in response to his video, this is what "The Crib" *me and my fellow housemates* made courtesy of our very own PandaMerah...

Unfortunately, Alan already went back to his hometown to finish off his fasting there.. So we were short of 1 member...

Never the less, off all the video responses from many Malaysians, this particular one caught my attention..

She's half Malay half Chinese!!!! She even add a proverb in her response *major turn on!*... truly 1Malaysia... *giggles*

Anyway, we would like to wish all the Malaysians out there a very happy Merdeka Day and  to all the muslims out there, happy eid mubarak... maaf zahir dan batin :)

Dubstep Nerf

Simply AWSM! Great editing to match with the sound's 'movement' *if that's even a legit term.. hahahaha*. I really like the ending where they combine strength to kill the mob.. plus, really nice music by Klaypex 

Peter "Phenomenal" Fennema

Actually there's no phenomenal in his name.. I just created the nickname.. and I'll tell you why...

I can't sleep... tired of doing my work.. so I went to my #1 website; Youtube... usually to seek funny, inspirational, reference videos... but mostly to listen to songs that are not on my playlist... what to do right.. it's 5am in the morn and I was feeling kinda blue, straight away I search the song Sempurna by Andra and the Backbone, a very beautiful love song... shortly after that... on the search list, I saw this...

I was really amazed that this man sang in fluent Bahasa Indonesia... I know many people have, but often they speak, not sing fluently... On the description of the video... he put a link of another website (MyIndo.com) which was an interview he did and explained all on why he sings Indonesian songs... 

Quoted from the website;

"A few years after graduation we (my girlfriend Lucie and I) went to South East Asia to travel for a year. Indonesia was our main destination, and it appeared to be a good choice.

Before we left we studied Bahasa Indonesia for about half a year. We flew to Bangkok and travelled down South through Malaysia and Singapore to Indonesia. We stayed in Indonesia for 8 months!

We visited Java, Bali, Sumatra, Kalimantan and Maluku (Ambon, Banda, Kei and Tanimbar). The diversity of the country is huge, so many different cultures and traditions.

If you travel in Indonesia you are very close to the local people, especially when you're using public transport and when you're in remote areas. We've encountered so many warm hearted friendly people, so many lovely smiles, that Indonesia began to feel like our home, even though we did not have a residence."

I feel like I wanna go travel to a foreign country like him...

I didn't put the rest of the interview here but feel free to read it at the link I put above... Here's another cover he did..

Gotta love this cover too!

Well... hope you enjoyed my brief introduction of Peter "Phenomenal" Fennema! I hope he likes the nickname.. *laughs* owh one more thing, you Peter "Phenomenal" Fennema, Have been tumblrized! Oh yeah...

Inception "Dream is a dangerous business"

oh boy this might be a long one guys...

www.filmshaft.com

So I watched Inception last night with Mein and Acap... and it was totally AWSM! mind blowing.. mind boggling..

Of all the movie I had watched with the theme dream or memory.. this has yet to be the most exiting.. If we're talking about story-wise.. it's superb... most of the time I was watching.. It made me think.. I seriously love movies that will lead me to think... There were never a slow moment in the plot.. everything just run smooth... the last 1 hour was very chaotic and full of suspense.. but you will never get too bored of lost in the movie.. some movies try to create so much suspense until you get lost.. but no.. Inception was great.. Christopher Nolan to me is an amazing director... after Dark Knight and The Prestige.. Inception really set his bar high in the sky... The way he translate this idea onto the big screen in pure genius! Another thing about this film is that since the theme is "dream", there's no limitation and no logical argument is valid.. all the rules and prohibition are not based on stupid excuses but very reasonable and beliavable.. After the movie.. Acap and I was like thinking how the hell the screenwriting was made.. given that we once took a screenwriting class and I have to tell you.. I'm already spooked with the idea of coming with a good storyline..

Besides that... Leonardo DiCaprio never seems to let me down... Mein and I were on the same page.. that he was born to act... He really had me at the part where his wife killed herself *oops spoiler!*.. his performance was convincing.. as always... But this is just not about Mr DiCaprio.. the line of cast was simply the best that the industry could offer.. Joseph Gordon-Levitt from 500 Days of Summer.. Ellen Page from Juno, Ken Watanabe from The Last Samurai along side Tom Hardy, Tom Berlenger, Cillian Murphy, Marion Cotillard and Michael Caine.. Things can't get any better than this... kudos to the great line of cast.

VFX-wise? top notch I have to say.. I know I'm still learning.. but damn all the scene was cool.. movies like this really define the era of HD and blu ray... of all the vfx loaded scene.. I have to say the part that I like the most is when Arthur (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) was fighting the sub-consciences in the hotel hallway that is constantly turning upside down due to the van which was rolling towars the river bank on the 1st level dream.. hahaha.. confuse much?

I told you this was gonna be a long one.. I urge you guys to see the movie!!! I'm going for my 2nd encounter with Inception this week again.. I hope so...

P.S: while you were reading this post.. are you aware that you are actually in a dream..  don't believe me? Do you remember how you got here? hahahaha... after you've seen the movie, then you shall understand what the hell am I talking about.. *laughs*
