Please accept our deepest condolences following to the death of Mbah Surip. The text below will always remind us to him, good bye Mbah Surip...rest in peace...
"Where are you going? Ok I’m walking Where are you going? Ok my darling"
Ha…Ha…
Tak gendong kemana-mana Tak gendong kemana-mana Enak donk, mantep donk..."
Tonight while looking for some stuff that I needed in a storage closet I discovered a Xerox box that had been in storage for years. Inside the box were photos of me from back in the day. A few were of the first time Janks and I met. Captain Janks had a huge influence on me as a teenager and is one of the most creative and slick people I know. Janks is a great person who is misunderstood and unfortunately went down the dark path that drug addiction leads people. Lets hope he stays clean and returns to his comedy gold soon!
When I watched the trailer below…I really interested and amazed...I have to watch this movie. MERANTAU, an Indonesian martial arts movie written and directed by Gareth Evans and introducing Iko Uwais will premiere on August 6.
Gareth Evans is a British director and newcomer Iko Uwais is an expert in Pencak Silat, the international term for the broad-ranging martial arts of Indonesia. Iko Uwais comes from the Silat Tiga Berantai school in Jakarta. They both met on the production of a documentary in Jakarta.
In Minangkabau, West Sumatra, Yuda (Iko Uwais), a skilled practitioner of Silat Harimau is in the final preparations to begin his "Merantau," a century's old rites-of-passage to be carried out by the community's young men that will see him leave the comforts of his idyllic farming village and make a name for himself in the bustling city of Jakarta.
After a series of setbacks leave Yuda homeless and uncertain about his new future, a chance encounter results in him defending the orphaned Astri (Sisca Jessica) from becoming the latest victim of a European human trafficking ring led by the wildly psychotic, Ratger (Mads Koudal) and his right-hand man Luc (Laurent Buson).
With Ratger injured in the melee and seeking both his "merchandise" and bloody retribution, Yuda's introduction to this bustling city is a baptism of fire as he is forced to go on the run with Astri and her younger brother Adit as all the pimps and gangsters that inhabit the night hound the streets chasing their every step.
With escape seemingly beyond their grasp, Yuda has no choice but to face his attackers in an adrenaline charged, jaw-dropping finale.
