Austrailia (the movie about the country)

Post by ardamus »

Ok, I went to see this shit because I was bored and I figured there was some wild shit going on it. I was getting pissed to a certain degree because the film centered around herding cattle from one part of Austrailia to another for a second; that got boring from time to time. But it didn't end there and was glad to see some action in that shit.

But I can say that (most importantly) I learned more about the Aboriginies. And I didn't know they would force kids into missionary camps like that back then because they were mixed and came from a different culture. Thats some real bullshit. Anyone see this film?

Go back to petting Alias's nuts, you ghey for Minbender stalker fuckface weirdo. Its like the lame-joke fairy took a shit in your ear while you were sleeping and told you to make more bitchmade posts again. :roll: :roll: :roll:

Anyways, it was mediocre to be honest with you. If you read instead trying to be a Seinfeld one-liner reject like you've usually have been for about the last 1000 posts you made, you'd see I was saying the history behind the Aboriginies was the best part about it. Now, go ahead and try and photoshop some more bullshit about me.

i haven't made a photoshop about you since i put you in the hitler thing i think

sorry to offend your delicate sensibilities buttercup

not even, figrued i'd fuck with you back since you've gotten me before. forget about it. and i asked for that photoshop so it makes it even funnier; i think. :lol:

but for real, the whole thing about the Aboriginies is some pretty ill shit. putting those kids in those camps to assimilate in white society. and it wasn't even that long ago since they've gotten rid of the law for that and offered a public apology. thats part of the reason why i made this thread.

:rofl: i'm all out of whack at teh end of the day again, i can't even tell jokes apart

you should really see rabit proof fence though, it takes place in the 30s and has a lot of the themes that struck a nerve with you. 3 aborigine girls get kidnapped by the goverment and put into an assimilation camp to be trained as house workers for the Y-Tz, they escape and basically have to walk like 1500 miles home through the outback. Crazy crazy shit

The treatment of Australia's indigenous population overall is pretty dissgracefull.

Research the 'Stolen Generation', whom Australia's new Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, finally gave a public appology to last year.

That shit is foul, and was going on as recently as in the 70s.

Dark.

Not seen the movie, and have no intention of - I've heard nothing but awfull reports of how inaccurate and pretentious it is.

Back in the day, MT2 and I used to occasionally patronize a bar in the East 90s called, absurdly enough, Australia: The Bar.

Thereafter, the nation was exclusively known as Australia: The Country.

Obviously, the release of Australia: the Movie was the source of much merriment.

Walkabout rules.

movie would be better if it was "Wolverine in Australia"

remake all of hugh jackman movies into wolverine movies and they'll be 10 times better.

except maybe the prestige and The fountain?

Swordfish with wolverine hacking away at computers with his adamantium claws.

kate and logan.

Van Wolverine

anything else?

Thats part if what concerns me. Even I just learned about this mistreament going on in Austrailia, I definitely have to question how accurate this film was about it.

There some pretty fucking corny parts in it. Like this whole shit about herding cattle from one part to another was weak as fuck. And it had alot of the typical medoore shit in a movie that you see. When it came down to the bombs and guns and shit, the movie actually got better.

Wolverine with magic powers? Sounds like a winner to me.

Wolverine also hosted the Tony Awards and if you think about it long enough your head might spin around and pop off.

Wolverine hosting the Tony Awards would be dope if everytime someone accepted an award, he'd gut them with his adamantium claws and be like "sorry bub, heard you're infected with the ghey legacy virus"

Also, The Prestige with Wolverine would last 5 minutes because he'd kill everyone in the movie because Magic is gay and supposedly, all real magic is derived from David Bowie, who is also known as The Ghey.
