You know that thing that most of us do when we're watching a movie in the cinema? We whip out our phones, go on Instagram and grab a quick few seconds of the film, or sometimes just take a fast snapshot so that all our followers know that we're watching the latest movie.
Local celebrity Neelofa was watching Disney's live action adaptation of The Lion King recently when she decided to take a few Instastories of the movie. In a series of stories which have since expired, Neelofa took a few clips of the movie, with each clip averaging at about 10 seconds each.
Because of the amount of clips she posted, Twitter user Megat Aliff took action and tagged local cinemas GSC and TGV, saying that Neelofa had broken the law by recording footage in a cinema! Even though his tweet is now deleted, many have responded, either to support or shame Neelofa.
What's more, the two cinemas actually responded to his tweet. TGV asked if he knew which TGV branch Neelofa was in, to which he responded that he didn't even know if she was in TGV in the first place. GSC took it one step further and said that they had reported it to the distributor of the movie- Disney itself!
Do you have any information on which cinema location? We take allegations of piracy very seriously.
Neelofa was quick to post an apology on her Twitter page, where she states that she takes full responsibility for her actions and explains that she took the clips because she was excited and wanted others to enjoy the film.
buat apa nak minta maaf dekat netizen when she can say sorry to the producer herself/ take responsibility.Dah terang2 dia post ni for ‘fellow Malaysians’ yang dok ulas pasal benda ni
takkan semua benda nak minta maaf dekat pihak yang tak berkepentingan dalam sesuatu isu=netizen
“get more fellow malaysian to enjoy the film as family event”? uhm we don’t need you to tell us to come and see lion king because some of us will definitely go and watch it. lol
