    This is the highest grossing Australian movie. The sequel is just as good. The Dundee and Sue married in real life after the second movie. They were married for 24 years and have one son. Paul Hogan was 46 when he made this movie. He was a household name in Australia and became an international star. Watch his speech at the Oscars. It is so funny!!

    • @friartalk6060
      @friartalk6060 2 місяці тому

      The earth was created for the "fleas" and isn't yet quite 6000 years old nor will it last past 7000, and ownership of the land does and will matter a lot due to it's spiritual significance for as long as this earth exists. So that "observation" was actually delusional carnal-minded false 'wisdom' relying exclusively on incomplete and materialistic thinking and or fantastical presumption.
      The devil is the father of lies and is far more sophisticated in it than most choose to believe. And has been using mainstream media to socially engineer people into lower and more deceived and sinful mentalities for a very long time to prepare them for the very soon coming soul damning great deception of false worldly "good" that is soon to debut and kick off the great tribulation (from which there will be no pre-tribulation "rapture").
      The world has also been willingly deceived through their love for sin to see comments such as this as either small minded, inappropriate or crazy, but as we all continue to watch the Biblical prophesies fulfilled before our own eyes in the coming years it will become clear why getting the warnings out, even at the cost of 'being weird', is necessary. And hopefully we will all come to cease from our shallow materialism and immoral make-believe and get real and get with CHRIST ALMIGHTY so that at least our eternal souls can be saved for resurrection and paradise, even if very few will physically survive what will very probably happen within the next decade.

    It must be said that Paul Hogan came from a blue collar background. He was literally working on jobs like the Sydney Harbour Bridge as a rigger when he haphazardly began working in the Australian entertainment business, a late bloomer. He entered a popular tv talent show where the judges typically tore the contestants apart, made fun of them. General chit chat on the jobsite led to him entering as a tap dancing knife thrower. His intentions, to take the piss out of the cruel judges. He succeeded and was asked back. This led to the Paul Hogan Show, a very successful comedy shetch show on Australian TV. He became an instant legend.

    The big finale scene where Mick walks across the crowd's heads was inspired by how Australian sheep dogs run across the backs of sheep when they're all bunched up together in their holding pens.
    "Never never" is another term for the outback and is generally used to refer to the "real" outback - as in the deep outback, right out there, the most rugged, wild, inhospitable, unforgiving parts of the outback where most people never venture. As an example, you might say something like, "I'm heading out into the never never on a camping trip next week."
    Sheila is just another term for a woman.
    No self-respecting Australian would ask to go "by way of a liquor store." We'd say "bottle'o" or "grog shop." I can only imagine they had Mick say liquor store in order for it to make sense to the American audience.

    At the end when a person says "we're jammed in here like sheep" , that gave Mick the idea to walk on peoples heads, much the same as those sheep dogs would climb on top of the sheep to clear a jam near the entrance of the corral.

      Glad someone else explained this as in Australian movie theatres all audiences understood the reference and stood on their chairs to cheer the moment! The character of Mick Dundee was known quite well before the film-it was a comic creation on a popular sketch show Paul Hogan starred in-but it was also shown in Ireland, Britain and America, late, on some channels. So its like an SNL character spin off.

    This was a HUGE hit back in 1986 and for quite some time, everything was Australia, Australia, Australia. Paul Hogan wrote and starred in CD. Not only that, he met Linda Kozlowski who he later married. In fact, he left his wife (who he married twice and had five kids) to begin his relationship with Linda. They were married for 24 years but divorced in 2014. Still, they got three CD movies out of it.

    It is hard to explain just how big Paul Hogan was after this film came out. He was a global superstar for a short while. This film was HUUUUUUUGE!!!! And quite rightly so. One of the all-time great "fish out of water" comedies. I met a guy in South Africa who had a similar way with animals. Amazing to watch. He said he tried it once surfing with a great white and it just ended up taking a bite, and he just had a huge scar to show for his efforts!!!! He told the story with a massive smile and seemed totally okay with the decision the shark made to bite him. Just a different way of looking at nature.

    I saw this in the theater when it came out, and the whole theater burst into cheers and applause at the ending, probably the greatest final scene in a romantic comedy. This was very popular the year it came out, and I still like it a lot. You identified its vibe very well. It unavoidably reminds me of “Tarzan’s New York Adventure” (1942), the best of Weismuller’s later Tarzan movies.
    Paul Hogan became known in the U.S. for a very popular series of commercials he did for the Australia Tourism Board. He presented the same sort of character, a super-friendly regular guy who invited you to visit him in Australia. He capitalized on that popularity to make this movie. Unfortunately, you may notice that he was getting a bit old for his co-star, and after the two sequels, he didn’t do much else that was notable, probably because he had aged out of leading man role.

    Not only did this film make Hogan a star, it increased tourism in Australia..partially because he did the promo ads all over the TV. and print media. A year later , Subarau introduced the Outback 4x4 with Hogan in all the commercials.

    Steve Irwin was hesitant to date Terri because he was worried that she was looking for a Crocidile Dundee type fantasy.
    Which would also be doubly hurtful because Mick was basically a poacher.
    Fun little tidbit from Terri's book...Steve used to get into constant bar fights out in the bush from poachers showing off their trophies and talking about killing baby crocodiles to rile him up. He rarely lost. I mean, the guy manhandled cocs across his zoo for a living.

      A few years back I saw a garter snake in the road, trying to get up the curb. I kept thinking about it and stopped and went back looking for it to help it up the curb if it hadn't made it yet. Two women in a car approached, slowed down and I asked if they'd seen a snake, explaining what I wanted to do. They hadn't seen it, but one of them said, "Steven would be proud.". He'd been gone a few years by then, but she said it just like that. We all knew which Steve she was referring to. It was the greatest compliment she could have given me.

    The place where they camped, and Mick spears a fish, is called Gumlon Falls in the Kakadu national park into the Northern Territory of Australia. I camped there for a week in the 1980s with my young family. The movie does not do it justice for how beautiful a spot it is. Back then there were no facilities, no shops and only a dirt track access. We brought in every thing we needed, and took out all our rubbish. Swimming in the pool beneath the waterfall was the best, and safe for my 2 young sons.

    Now for another great action/drama/comedy movie: "True Lies" with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis.
    "True Lies" has a little bit of everything in it and it's Arnold at his best.
    "Open Range" is a great Western with Kevin Costner
    "A Time To Kill" is a fantastic drama movie with Matthew McConaughey and Samuel L. Jackson
    "Gaslight" is a 1950's very good drama movie with Ingred Bergman ( Casa Blanca)
    "Grumpier Old Men" is the comedy sequel to Grumpy Old Men.
    "The Color Purple" is an exceptional movie....a heartwarming drama with Whoopi Goldberg, Danny Glover and Oprah. ( Don't know if you've seen this one or not)

    Dude, I felt the same way about NYC. I took the train all the way from Canada and got out right at Madison Square Garden. They had to DRAG me back to Penn Station come Sunday night. The comedy clubs, the WTC memorial, the diners, the pizza, the places you recognize from movies. Go go go go go and the people are the nicest folks I've ever come across, even southerners would be impressed by the hospitality New Yorkers will show you. Trust me. I've never been more wrong than I was about NYC.

He was the one who said "Throw another shrimp in the barbie". The Paul Hogan show used to be on when i was a kid, late 70's early 80's. It was hilarious. My favorite character was a stuntman called Leo Wanker.
