Romper stomper is corny as can be.

As for aussie movies, only decent ones i can think of are...

Two hands.
The Combination.
Bra Boys doco.

Bra Boys Doco???? Interesting.....

Pack of grubs from my dealings with them....but each to their own

Its a well made documentary imo.
Russel Crowe narrating it.

Probably hasn't aged well.
No one even talks about em these days.
Probably wernt important enough to have a doco about them in the first place.

But it's 1 of a few decent aussie flicks imo.
Not many to chose from.


Was mad when it came out
Mostly the surfing footage

Sunny was a standby on a job we did last year lol
When I went to shake his hand I was tempted to do their one ?

How bad is their aussie hip hop crew.

Puberty Blues.

LOL

80s.
Aussie films.
Aha... atrocious.

Man From Snowy River
Gallipoli

They weren't all crap

Yeah Gallipoli was good.

Some others off the top of my head:

- The Castle
- The Dish
- The Bank
- Crackerjack
- Gettin' Square
- Dirty Deeds
- Crackers
- Takeaway
- Chopper
- Burke & Wills
- Bad Boy Bubby
- Babe

Others I still would like to see:

- Balibo
- Breaker Morant
- Romper Stomper
- Picnic at Hanging Rock
- Beneath Hill 60

Romper Stomper was great. I believe the bloke who played Davey committed suicide at Newtown station just after the movie came out, and never got to see it do well.
Picnic at Hanging Rock is also great.
Another really good Aussie (I think?) movie from that period is The Bounty, it's on Stan. Some big name actors in there before they made it big.
 
Hard to go past 2001 A Space Odyssey.

David Lynch makes some amazing movies. Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive are right up there with my all time favourites.

Yeah sting was my fav too man.
He had a bat and a leather jacker. Hard af.

The crow still holds up well.
Absolute classic.

So much darkness around the film due to Brandons death but wow... its amazing.

The cure have a song in it which is cool and have refused to play it live since Lee's death.

Top 10.
