Someone's blog edit

I've semi-protected the article again due to the persistent re-insertion of content based on some blog, as was done here. Enough already--this blog is not reliable and the addition and attendant edit warring is disruptive. Drmies (talk) 01:20, 20 August 2013 (UTC)Reply


Final Destination 2 was not banned. I know this because I saw it at the cinema. Also the source cited for this does not list any Final Destination film. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.127.194.165 (talk) 10:13, 14 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

I saw 'Aliens', "Final Destination 2' , Matrix 2 & 3 at the cinema in KL. They were not banned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.25.62.130 (talk) 07:39, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Convertion of the list to a sortable table format (Plus, a dead link from Lists of Bests) edit

I found a template that the list can be better in a sortable table format. Can anyone change the list to a sortable table format? P.S. I found a dead link which is a reference in the page from the Lists of Bests website. Can anyone find more suitable links for the references? SuperArticleGuy (talk) 04:22, 20 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

fifty shades of grey, kingsman, and many more are not banned probbly with slight cut but not all movie stated are prohibited or banned. People have their choice to watch online and get from other way beside the cinema. Malaysian government aren't that harsh in banning the film. my friend and i did have the saw series collection, eventhou i'm no fan of excessive brutalities. As Malaysian myself, I doesn't agree to all of the listed movie since pretty much of it is available for enjoyment. A way much more need to do to get this list perfect. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.141.91.245 (talk) 18:17, 19 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Someone's blog edit

This article seems to contain a lot of inaccuracy. I remember I watched wanted in a theater in Malaysia. Also, while American Beauty may be banned (I didn't really know) I did watch it in local television station.

Better criteria for "banned" movies, more valid sources edit

Would a film really be "banned" by the censors if it was available for screening on TV (pay-per-view or free-to-air) or home video release? Also, we need sources more credible than "List of Bests" for further verification. I'm talking about archives spanning many years from newspapers like New Straits Times and The Star, the Arkib Negara Malaysia even...just my suggestion. -~~ Anumengelamun (talk) 08:55, 2 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Lists of Bests edit

In response to a recent attempt to delete the article, I have removed all references from the (now dead) user-generated site http://www.listsofbests.com/, which is not RS; as well as all unsourced entries. As someone had restored these entries following a previous cut, DO NOT RESTORE THEM. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 09:11, 6 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

@LaundryPizza03: Looks like it reference linked to IMDb, and it's considered unreliable. --49.150.116.127 (talk) 14:34, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Wording needs changing on 'Dallas Buyers Club' edit

The wording on the section regarding the film 'Dallas Buyers Club' needs changing as it doesn't make sense in its current form ("Banned due to a religious, cultural and moral grounds.") Xboxsponge15 (talk) 00:16, 30 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Wording needs changing on 'Banglasia' edit

The wording on the section regarding the film 'Banglasia' needs changing as it doesn't make sense in its current form ("On 12 February 2019, the ban was lifted when LPF approved the film undergone 7 scenes reedits or cut"). Xboxsponge15 (talk) 00:19, 30 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
