EMERGENCY! HELP NEEDED! AFDLIN MINTAK TOLONG!

Despite doing everything we could to make SUMOlah a success we have run into a brickwall. It seems that the cinemas are telling us that their collection is quite low for the movie Sumolah and GSC has even applied for sumolah to be taken off its programming just after four days being shown. This is so wierd for a movie which has received many amazing good reviews and has been marketed beyond months. I am really stumped. Before analyzing this any deeper, i would like to make an appeal first :

If you want to see Sumolah and haven't. I would like to make an appeal to all my friends and kodoks to please go and see it with your family and friends before they pull us off the cinema. if they do this then the consequences could be dire.

If you loved the movie please tell everyone you know and get them to watch it because personally i think it would be a waste that such a meaningful movie does not meet more people.

I've never asked for help before but, i am appealing to your budi baik to help support sumolah. Will keep you guys updated on what transpires next. Moving to thailand now looks like a serious option.

gua rasa sumo-lah merupakan sebuah filem yang menghiburkan dan mempunyai cerita yang seimbang yang sarat dengan teladan yang didekatkan kepada penonton secara lembut dan tidak keterlaluan (walaupun perkara yang sama tidak dapat diperkatakan bagi penampilan barangan pihak penaja yang tidak dapat dielakkan dalam filem ini). pujian dan sokongan harus diberi kepada saudara afdlin shauki dan semua tenaga kerja yang menghasilkan filem sumo-lah.

but if it's true that sumo-lah is to be taken off the cinemas, it's very obvious then that they our cinema operators are blatantly more concerned on milking more out of the foreign blockbusters that are currently showing and are coming our way (a weblog posting by your wifey comes to mind). it would be a sad state of affairs indeed should that happen.

here's praying for you and vision works to have more financial muscle in the future.

dear afdlin..saye adalah salah seorang students UTP yang trletak kat perak nun..tah la, saye amat excited bile sumolah ni nak kua..tapi ape yang amat mengecewakan saye dan jugek kengkawan adalh tarikh kluar sumolah ni, btul2 2 - 3 ari kitorng dak2 u ni nak exam..camno nak buek??cam on, exam 2 3 minggu, mmg ktrang tak smpat nak kua tgk cite ni kat wayang aa(bg mereke2 yang exam)

mostly, penonton wayang especially cite afdlin adelah dari kalang plajar, at least jge adalah grup terbesar dalam peratusan penonton...perkare ni rasenye ptt kot amek kire dlm prancangan..sbb yang nak nonton da tntu la rakyat malaysia dulu, dan keutamaan msti aa pade glngn majoriti penonton kan??tol tak?

cano spiderman leh lak kua time 2 mngu sblm ktrang exam, n POTC plak elok je time ujung kitorang exam..cam derang tau2 je jadwal kitorang kan?

saye snarnye tak tgk g, mane le nak smpat..14 da strt exam, 10 may baru nak kua?hehe..camno nak buekk??kalau le tokei wyg baek ati extend, kmpem lagi smnggu due meletup smule citer ni~

Anonymous said...

the movie should be released as scheduled earlier this year to rake in more ticket collection..but screw the authorities for putting 10 may as the date of release of your movie...this movie is veri good and the current reception in terms of ticket collection doesn't reflect the true and good of this movie....hopefully things will pick up a gear in this few days..i dowan to see Sumolah to be taken off the cinema that soon....your movies are much much better and made the viewers think compared to the Prof A Razak (lame and ridiculous comedy that insult the malay people's intelligence) and Yusof Haslam (the same old trick of police-themed drama)

Salam. Baru je tgk td. Filem yg bagus. Lain dari yg lain. Cuma rasanya kalu dapat cepatkan sikit tempo filem ni lagi best kot. Dan lagi cantik kalu dapat color efx yg lebih dramatik. Overall bagus!

hmmm cif..i have done my part..dah tengok 2x pastu dah seret rakyat jelata kawan2 i ikut tengok sama..siap belanjer derang tiket wayang lagik to support u! good news utk u cif, pg tadi i selak suratkabar Utusan Malaysia ruangan tengah komen utk filem by A.Wahab Hamzah dia puji filem u. Tak tahulah u baca ke tak, coz i memang suka dia ni kalau bab kritik filem. Biasanya dia ni jarang puji filem2 kita, tp dia puji Sumolah. Elok u baca.

what?!!! no way!!
how could they aflin?!!
on my part I've highly recomended this movie to all my friends!! And Family!!! I've even talked about it more than often in my own blog!! Dont worry aflin I would gladly watch it twice even three times with my family N friends just so they dont pull out the movies from cinema showing...

P/s- please dont move to thailand!!

saya dah tengok sumolah last weekend.
the movie is good.(but i prefer baik punya cilok,hehe) tapi 1 je yang tak berapa nak best...banyak sangat 'iklan' celcom n ogawa.i know they are the sponsors tapi obvious sangat nak tunjuk iklan tu.paling best lakonan radhi n gurmit.all d best 2 u mr afdlin :)

Kodok Brunei said...

it could be the time of premiere of this movie. it's too competitive with people hyped with the spidey and upcoming pirates and shrek. this is one of the problems with our people. they praise the hollywood movies too much sampai tak nak support the work of our own people.

there's no malay movie typicallity (if there is such word hehehe) in this one. this is tru Afdlin's work. not like the others which i am brave enough to say: crap!

i think more movie campaign is needed. more tv advertising and maybe promotions??

Anonymous said...

memang bagus kalau ada pengkritik filem memuji..but in the end, what matters for the movie investors and cinema operators is MONEY...kita sbg penonton boleh kata filem ini best tapi kalau masih takde orang nak pi panggung untuk tengok, we are still back to square one!!
adoi..if only, more ppl come to watch Sumolah..one of the finest effort from Afdlin....
perhaps Afdlin should target more on Indian and Chinese as well because i as a Chinese, although enjoy all your films and also went to the cinema to catch this Sumolah, but all of my chinese friends are skeptical when they learnt that this is a malay movie..i've tried to persuade them that while this is a malay movie because of the language used but nevertheless it is more to the malaysianized concept...few of my chinese frenz gave a try and watch it and they said the movie was good but still majority of my friends shying away from ur movie...we just need to change their mindset...to afdlin, maybe u shuld push more promotion among chinese and indian people..they just need something or somebody to ensure them that they are spending RM8 for a good movie. i've tried my best to tell how good your movies are...they are all impressed with your Ah Ha but somehow still reserved when it comes to malay movies..part of the reason was that they felt a little bit "malu-malu kucinG" to be in the cinema because too many malay while sometimes all malay packing the cinema for yours and other malay movies...i went to watch your movie last saturday in ipoh and me and my girlfren were the only chinese there...some might feel malu malu kucing..but of course, i dun care about this feeling..i just wanna watch a good movie, that's all...this is something we must address to..but still i think the major reason on why sumolah lacks response...blame the month of May larr..got SPidey and POTC summore..poket ketat lar..satu bulan ada 2 blokbuster movie mereka mungkin rasa budget mereka damm tight lar tu...

Hey Afdlin!

I am off to France today but will be back only on 22 May. Can only catch it then. I always try to watch local films in the cinema :-) Gambatte kudasai!

Hmm..aku xleh la nak komen lebih dah dia kata gitu. dia ni bukan org kg..org bandar, title pun manager. tp masa dia tengok filem jgn pandang belakang tu dia kata dia suka sangat. korang rasa apa yg buatkan dia kata tak sedap dan tak faham tu? gua pun tak faham la..iye2 aku promote sumo kat dia alih2 dia marah aku kata tak sedap. citarasa manusia lain2 eh!

Satu lagi harap2 kawan-kawan yang ada blog/website tolong war2kan pasal filem ni. Write a very beautiful review lah. Just like what i did.. hahaha...

Another option, sent email berantai to show to malaysia cyber space community how good this movie.

Seriously, for me Sumolah adalah filem lucu paling best yang pernah rakyat Malaysia buat. Lain2 benda pun best, macam message, kebudayaan, bla..bla..bla.. tapi aku tak pandai sangat nak komen. Yang pasti, pada aku Sumolah filem lucu paling best pernah dibuat di Malaysia...

Aku tabik chip kodok...!

Hallo brader Afdlin,
saya sudah tengok brader munyer movie itu hari dengan wife saya.
Dan memang masyukkkkk abis la..part pungkoq tu memang tak leh tahan la...
Wife saya gelak sampai nangis-nangis. Nasib baik saya macho, tak nangis sama
(gelak dekah-dekah jer hehe). Jangan la lepas ni wife saya mintak saya buat pungkoq lagu tu..
Saya kasi brader Afdlin RM4 dari RM5. Potong RM1 sebab promo sponsor
yang terlampau.
Anyway, saya sudah promo brader punya filem dalam website saya yang tak seberapa
kentang nih..Promo baeeekkk punyerrr...
kalau ada apa-apa yang boleh dimodify, inform gue yek...

Tak betul ni bang, biasalah orang Malaysia suka lambat-lambat. GSC should realize this lama dah. Depa dah bertapak di Malaya lama kan?

Will do my bestest to promote kat kawan2 lain.

AKu rasa untuk mana2 filem melayu nak release patut elakkan buat waktu US tengah musim panas. Sebab waktu tu, banyak major worldwide hollywood film release. So orang ramai mesti nak tengok cite2 hollywood ni.

Cuba fikir, bulan 5 ni je ada Spiderman 3, Shrek 3, Pirates of the Carribean 3. Orang yg movie buff mungkin akan pergi tgk semua. Tapi kalau the average family mungkin akan bawak famili dia sekali je dalam sebulan tgk wayang. betul tak?

Aku rasa sebab timing je cip kodok. Cite cip buat mmg semuanya best. Next time maybe you got to hold the release during Spring or winter US time. Ni pendapat aku je la.

sy dh tgk last week..best lawak sempoi...
tp, bg sy sumolah x mnjadi berbanding baik punya cilok yg sy naik hafal dialog dia...n bg saya buli n buli balik lagi best dr sumolah...
no wonder la sumolah x berapa havoc kat pawagam..
sorry to say that..yg pasti sy mmg minat dgn afdlin shauki...
gud luck bro...

Shai Arif said...

ahaks no prob....

i belum tengok lagi sebab busy lagipun anak-anak nak periksa... will bring them to the cinema nanti. tak fikirlah nak tarik... gertak je kot...

Kenny T said...

I'm so sorry to hear that Afdlin. But I am sure you know it, the timing is just too tight. With the heavily marketed Spiderman 3 and Pirates fighting to have more opening screens and earnings than ever, trying to eke the last bit out of every last cent of the franchise... your movie is caught with a massive headwind.

The promotional buzz was too early... With Celcom giving the movie a great momentum into the opening, the opening date got pushed back further. And that obviously hurt.

You mentioned the film was to be released in Feb initially and that would have been fabulous... With so many holidays and all. Not to mention the crap movies we had to endure through that month..

But never lose hope. Judging from this blog, there's plenty of support for you and your art.

Please make sure the movie gets to Singapore soon. I can help you spread some word to those who would REALLY like to see your film... and maybe Afdlin in person!

Assalamualaikum.Bro.Afdlin.sy dah tgk filem Sumolah.kat Mines.it's the best film from u since Buli.And from what I see, mmg x penuh panggung waktu tu.sy rasa mungkin psl filem Spider-man ni yg memberi kesan kepada sambutan filem ni.walaupun mmg filem SumoLah ni amat bagus, tp audience memilih utk beli tiket for Spider-Man.mgkn diorang pikir, filem SumoLah boleh tgk lepas ni,dlm CD dan mereka x nak lepaskan peluang jd antara org pertama yg tgk citer org baju biru merah tu.Itu pandangan saya lah.Anyway, from my point of view.you're the next P.Ramlee!!!Adiosss

Anonymous said...

Abg Afdlin,
i'm one of ur silent reader and peminat setia abg.i never miss to watch all ur movies. but sad to say, saya kecewa sikit la bang.. agak kecewa..bagi saya "Buli" and "Baik nyer Cilok" paling best. saya tgk "Sumolah" the 1st day of the show. and i do fall asleep at certain scene. and i ask my friend, she admit it too.. my friend yg tgk "Baik nyer Cilok" sampai 4 kali kat wayang buleh punkata "sumolah" agak kureng skit. sedih la bang.. even time tu pawagam pun kosong. and kat klcc takder pun tayang on 10hb tuh..even 11hb pun takder lagik.
anyway, "sumolah" ok la jugak..ada pengajaran. cuma saya confuse pasal tiap kali dialog siti dgn ramlee, mcm tak der related jawapan perbualannyer (nak2 masa diorang jumpa kat blakang kedai time ramlee buat silangkata tuh.. abg paham ak apa sy cakap ni?) takper la abang.. saya akan tunggu lagik next2 filem abg.. good luck!!

Aku dah ambil tindakan nekad dengan spam email orang merayu dorg tgk Sumolah. Hahahhaa.. aku copy and paste posting lu ini and hantar ke 500+ email address yang ada dalam simpanan aku. Hopefully during these 2 days orang akan buka email tu and forward to their frens. Kalau at least 10% yang terpengaruh dgn email aku ada la beberapa ratus org pergi tgk... AHhahaa..

- aku dah review Sumolah kat blog
- aku dah kempen kat budak2 ofis
- kempen kat semua member2
- aku dah send message kat semua dalam YM list

Hi,

just watched sumo-lah just now with my sis in queensbay penang, i'm so dissapointed that me and my sister were the only chinese in the halfly filled cinema. (Even the ticket seller was shocked that i wanted to buy 2 tickets for sumolah ... wat the hell)

The story and moral of the story is really good ! i really recommend this movie to everyone !!!!!!! and i'll recommend it to the ppl in my company ^^

Watched it.
GREAT movie.
Already write SUMOlah review in my blog.
Not enough teaser (u know, to t.e.a.s.e. ppl so they feel like
watch-Afdlin-or-die-sort-of-thing).
Will promote to families and friends coz I like your works and I don't want you to move to Thailand.. of course.

as usual, afdlin wat aku fikir dalam-dalam. Sumting hidden yg bisa gegar kepala kasi gegar kepala....'it is always about our own talent and abilities"

...thanks for sharing the great ideas on how we should appreciate ourselves. yg plg menarik tgk pn kartina aziz dgn 'stongan'nya ^_^ V

terus berkarya afdlin :)

You win some, you lose some. Looks to me, you're not so good at losing. Sore loser actually. Have fun in Cannes....hmmm;

tu lah, yg pi head to head ngan summer blockbuster apsal. tak reti reti reti ka? logik kan tu, org melayu suka spidey lebih dari tengok org melayu pakai cawat. itu pun cawat sumo tak ori. sebab kalau pakai cawat ori sure censorboard tak pass scene korang punya behind yang gerenti kalau tengok pengsan... this you sure tau kan? entah lah...alahai cip. tengok cermin dulu ler, analyse betul betul baru cakap yek? anyway, have fun in cannes...

dear afdlin,

i thought sumolah was really funny. i especially liked the bit where the weirdo with the mohawk got pinched and said something like 'is it weird that it felt good?' me and me friend laughed like nobody's business...unfortunately, we were the only two people in the cinema who laughed at that joke.

i agree that the advertising went a bit way over the top and the acting can be quite stiff. but all in all it was a good movie.

just to let you know, i was disappointed with pirates of the caribbean AND spiderman 3 (and i'm not the only one)..i laughed more watching sumolah!

instead of tengok cerita Lanon Karibean, gua telah menyapot filim tempatan dgn membawe due org rakan berbangse cine dan seorang rakan melayu menonton Sumolah!

best woi.kawan cine aku yg tepakse keluar wayang untuk mengambil girlfren beliau balik kerje dan tak dapat menonton sampai abis nak ajak aku tengok semula.

akan aku sebarkan kelazatan cerita ni kepada semua.gudlak la encik.

AFDLIN!!! NGKO GEMOK!!

Ok now that I have your attention (which I badly need. 108 comments ngko. Mana orang nak perasan), gua memang nak tengok SUMO-lah. Tapi memandangkan gua amat sibuk dengan kerja, hanya late night show aje yang mampu pergi tengok.

Gua buat plan dengan 4 orang member nak gi tengok SUMO-lah kat TGV Seremban 2. Tengok iklan kat paper, ada show 11.40 malam. Ok, set.

Tapi gua terkilan. Sampai je kat panggung, diorang cakap show dah cancel. Tak ramai beli tiket. Gua memang sedih.

Next week pulak, SUMO-lah dah takde dalam list of shows. Dah kena ganti dengan Shrek the Third. Gua memang shahdu.

Bersalah pun ada, pasal Pirates dengan Spiderman sempat tengok, tapi bukan SUMO-lah. Gua patut support lu punya filem. Apakan daya. Gua dah try.

So I hereby make a promise. Kalau lu release DVD or VCD ke, gua akan beli yang original, as a show of my support. Nak show support lagi, kalau gua jumpa orang beli yang pirated punya, gua kasi pelempang satu kat mamat tu.

OK bro Afdlin. Keep up the good work. Gua akan terus support lu.

1.kureng la afdlin Sumolah tu.
adakah itu filem syok sendiri?
masa scene kat jepun tu tak nampak mcm jepun pun. lagi satu jepun ni bangsa penjajah, kenapa nak mengagungkan bangsa mereka? kita kan byk sukan sendiri. ketengahkan permainan2 melayu tradisional kita. daripada situ kita boleh promote M'sia ke negara luar.

2.aku paham kau nak buat lain dari yang lain, tapi sorry to say, tak menjadilah!

3.iklan sponsor terlalu banyak, naik menyampah pulak.

4.lagi satu poster design movie m'sia ni apsal crowded sgt eh? bersepah! buat simple2 sudah, tak perlu nak letak semua pelakon dlm poster. dah macam design cina "jinjang" pulak!

5.aku suka ko & gurmit berlakon, korang mmg kelakar. (time ko ckp "pokemon" aku ingat kau nak ckp "p*****k". haha...) tapi yang kantoi watak budak si "Kodok" tu. takde ke budak lain? ikut skrip sangat.

6.mungkin lagi satu sebab Sumolah tak laku pasal byk mov keluar at the same time. Spiderman,POC3 etc.
mmg terbiar lah film kau tu. siapa nak tgk mov melayu skrg? film melayu yang boleh pergi jauh skrg Yasmin Ahmad je.

7.pls don't waste ur money buat film bukan2. first time aku dgr title "sumolah" dan tgk poster, aku boleh agak ni cerita lawak bodoh. mmg tak boleh pergi jauh. that's all. u hv to face this. sbb aku sudah melihatnya.

8.kadang2 aku rasa sedih bila ada org yg bangun keluar panggung bila Sumolah halfway ditayangkan. kalau kau lihatnya sendiri pasti kecewa sedikit. tapi inilah dinamakan satu pelaburan. tak cuba tak tau kan. wish u luck afdlin! aku tau kau boleh buat yg terbaik drp ini.
itu sajalah kritikan aku.
