Australian Movies

Don’t get me wrong, I love Aussie Movies, including most of those mentioned below.

But people often wonder why Australian Movies don’t perform all that well.

Gee, is it really that hard to work out?

We (Australia) make weird movies, or they are targeted at a very small segment of the market, that’s why.

Priscilla Queen of the Desert – Drag Queens riding around on a bus.
Romper Stomper – Skinheads bashing everyone and anyone.
Muriel’s Wedding – Werido chick who tries on wedding dresses.
Strictly Ballroom – no, not the porn version, the movie about ballroom dancing.
Kenny – The guy who cleans dunnies for a living.
The Castle – A family that enjoys living next to the airport.



And the ‘best’ of all :
Bad Boy Bubby – now tell me that’s not the most fucked up movie you've ever seen!

And the other thing about Australian Movies is that they all have the same actors.
You can’t make a movie in Australia without Bill Hunter – it’s the law!

What other Aussie movies fit into this category?

I can't think of movies, but I know that lately you can't seem to have a tele show without Rodger Corser or Callan Mulvey.
