Cape craze in Johor: Over 1,000 fans break record in massive Superman gathering

JOHOR BARU, July 14 — A superb moment took place on Saturday here as 1,007 fans gathered for the largest-ever Superman costume assembly — an achievement that has proudly earned a place in the Malaysian Book of Records. The gathering at Aeon Mall, Bukit Indah began at 2:30 pm and featured an impressive array of fans, many of whom with their personal interpretations of Superman or his alter ego, Clark Kent. From enthusiastic individuals and families to passionate cosplayers and kids, attendees came together to show their love and support for the iconic DC superhero. Aeon Malls nationwide have hosted a variety of Superman-themed ground activations, including colouring activities, cosplay events, and fan gatherings. 'Aeon Mall is non-stoppable to bring excitement to our valuable customers and community,' said Head of Mall Marketing, Nikki Lee Chin Foong. Meanwhile, TGV Cinemas, as part of its TGV Home of Heroes campaign, which celebrates heroes from all genres, hosted a 'Mega Super Party' at more than 40 locations nationwide. The new Superman film premiered in Malaysia on July 10 and has been praised for its comic-accurate portrayal of the character, a version that stands in contrast to Zack Snyder's more serious take on the Man of Steel. Superman is still screening in cinemas, and it's not too late to catch this heroic adventure on the big screen.

Actress Sofia Jane Questions GSC's Inconvenient Screening Time For 'Mencari Ramlee'

Director and author of 'Gantung: Musketeer Code', Nadia Khan, recently criticised Golden Screen Cinemas (GSC) and TGV Cinemas after learning that the former would be pulling the film from cinemas, reportedly due to low audience turnout. She argued that the premiere date and screening times were poorly scheduled, making it difficult for Malaysian audiences to attend. GSC has yet to provide an explanation, and it appears they may need to offer another soon. An actress recently took to social media to question the company after learning that a film she starred in would also be pulled from cinemas. Here's what happened: Earlier this week, actress Sofia Jane took to both Instagram and Twitter to speak about 'Mencari Ramlee', the film in which she stars alongside Tony Eusoff and Mimi Lana, and GSC's screening schedule. She revealed that she and the rest of the team involved in the project had been informed that the film would be withdrawn from GSC outlets due to low audience turnout. However, she questioned the reasoning behind the chosen screening times and called for an explanation. 'My question is, why are the time selections that make it impossible for some to catch it? If you decide to just have one time slot, why can't you dedicate a decent time that you know can be accessible? Till today, after years in this industry, I still can't get a decent answer,' she wrote in her posts. She added that, while she understands how business works, she struggled to make sense of the decision, particularly if GSC genuinely wants local cinema to thrive. 'I'm not asking for 'Mencari Ramlee' alone, but for all the others that are coming your way. We both know why the industry is slow in filling bums in seats. But it doesn't help having a time slot that makes it hard for the few who want to watch it,' the 53-year-old elaborated. Shortly after her post went viral, filmmaker Nadia Khan responded, stating that she is still awaiting a reply from GSC regarding her own enquiries about the screening of her film 'Gantung: Musketeer Code'. Both public figures concluded that cinemas, particularly when it comes to local films, may no longer be what they once were. Netizens remain divided, with some criticising GSC for failing to prioritise local productions, while others argue that the cinema chain should not bear all the blame, pointing instead to the film's lack of promotion. What are your thoughts on this issue? Is GSC truly to be blamed for the lack of views, or is this a case of a lack of promotion from the film's marketing team?

Performance-enhancing drugs are everywhere on social media, says Syarul

KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Syarul Azman Mahen Abdullah, a six-time World and Asian bodybuilding champion, is deeply concerned by how easy it is to buy banned performance-enhancing drugs in Malaysia today. Syarul said sales of such drugs online, especially on social media, have become rampant and fears users could seriously harm themselves. He urged the government to take stern action to prevent the issue from getting worse. "There are so many performance enhancing drugs available on social media today, I have even had people offer such drugs to me," said Syarul when met today (May 26). "Sometimes I check the people or accounts who are following me on social media. "I get shocked at times when I check and see that they are actually selling all sorts of these performance-enhancing substances. "Newcomers to the sport might see this as a shortcut and try to use these substances. It can affect their health very seriously and can even cause a heart attack. "These are actually drugs which are meant to be used under strict doctor supervision in hospitals. "In the past, you had to go to the gym and try and talk to people to get such substances but now, everything is done online. "The government has to do something to stop this. I believe the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) can do something about it." Syarul said growth hormones, peptides and anabolic steroids among the performance-enhancing substances commonly sold. Syarul retired from competitive bodybuilding last year and currently coaches the national bodybuilding team. He was speaking after attending the launch of the Drug Free Youth Campaign awareness video in Kuala Lumpur today (May 26) - officiated by Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh - in cooperation with TGV Cinemas. TGV Cinemas will from now be screening a short drug awareness video before movies are shown at their cinemas nationwide. This is to create greater awareness regarding the dangers of recreational drug use.
