Righto cunts. our Australian brethren are either in bed or nearly there so lets shit talk aussie cinema behind their backs ay. Now I reckon that even with their clear intellectual shortcomings, Aussie cinema really holds its own and cranks out 24 karat kino on the regular. Its like they succeed despite themselves. Why is this?I just watched pic related and was stoked at how good it was! My only gripe is I don’t get why they had actors with Southern U.S. accents. Was it 'cause Patterson couldn’t nail a believable Aussie one? he's a weak cunt if that's true. I give it 8/10 instead of 9/10 because of this
Chopper—one of the best examples of character acting in 21st-century Anglophone cinema. It’s hilarious as hell but also pretty tragic at the same time. The movie launched Bana from being just a comedian to being seen as a serious actor. easy 9/10.Director made shit all of any worth since this. shame really.

>>204717227fack off you weak cunt
>>204717227Agreed. The tryhard straya shit is pathetic.
Australian cinema is mostly shit. You get a couple of gems a decade, if that. Why is this the case? Because to get funding for your Australian film, you have go through the various state government industry funding hoops and checklists. This kills creativity and ensures diversity.In the 70s and 80s, Australian film was privately funded but the investment was essentially a tax write off.Don't even mention the subsidies given to multinational corporations to film in Australia. That should just be outright illegal.
>snowtownIf you were ever in any doubt that aussies were a bunch of sick fucks watch Snowtown. Pedos, troons man-on-man rape, incest,serial killers, torture and extortion. But what do you expect from a nation of imported crims? Like Chopper, it features an awesome performance of a psychopath by a comedian. Genuinely chilling. 9/10
>>204717422Into the barrel you go, m8.
>Walkaboutclassic. Ya get to see Jenny Agutter's muff. 9/10I sometimes think of the outback as a representation of the Australian colonizers subconscious. Desolate, barren, amoral, windswept, empty. Abbos who can lead you to salvation hang around on the edges of your awareness, reminding you that you’re a genocider, but you can’t really face that. Even at the level of instinct you can't acknowledge your nation's depravity
>>204717319Most of it is garbage but when it is good, it is really good. That's the tradeoff. You have to wait some time for something good to be made.>>204717185Riot of a movie. Loved every moment. This is what movies ought to be.
>>204717319>Australian cinema is mostly shit. You get a couple of gems a decade, if thatthey have a higher hit rate than america, canada, new zealnd or the UK per capita. They are the best anglophone movie producers. They've got a third of the population of the UK for fucks sake.They start them young and nurture talent
>>204716945rover is one of me favouritessome obvious ones:propositionwolf creek has my rare waifurazorbackquigley
The best western in cinema history isn't even American. unfathomably based. No fuckin wonder they're trying to get Hillcoat to adapt blood meridian. The yanks don't have the fuckin talent
>>204717740>wolf creek>razorback>quigleynever heard of these but they look awesome. This thread is already paying dividends
>>204717768I found the music really out of place. Just watched picrel. Was kino but jesus did we really need 20 minutes of kangaroo gore?
