2024-04-15 07:36:14 +0000 UTCCrocodile Dundee 1 and 2 are movies that are married together, after 1 he doesnt go back to Australia; he stays in NY with Sue. 2 is the conclusion to the story started in 1.

2024-01-27 22:20:16 +0000 UTCI hate watch-a-long syncing, but despite that I had to join your Patreon for this. At 10 yo I saw it in the movies 4 times! Used up all my allowance and did lots and lots of jobs/chores to afford it. First film I saw more than once at the cinema. Had posters from the film all over my room too, and later bought the soundtrack.

2024-01-27 16:18:58 +0000 UTCFinally got around to watching this. I never get tired of watching this movie, and to watch it along with Cassie & Carly made it all the more enjoyable as I got to see their reaction to this gem of a movie that I first saw as a kid. I'm sure it's already mentioned, but I really hope they know about the two sequels, Crocodile Dundee 2 (1988) and Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles (2001). They're both a must watch too! 🍿

2024-01-26 03:45:45 +0000 UTC"Crocodile Dundee is back in the wild. Paul Hogan and wife Linda Hogan have finalized their divorce, roughly nine months after Linda filed for the split after 23 years of marriage. Over the years, they starred in three Crocodile Dundee films together, starting with the original in 1986, and tied the knot on May 5, 1990". I guess she decided to go for her own Walkabout.

2024-01-23 08:50:14 +0000 UTCClassic fish-out-of-water story, I watched this all the time on VHS when I was a little boy (was obsessed with the knife). "That's not a knife.....THAT'S a knife!" is a Hollywood classic line, everyone knows it and now so do you. As others of said the sequel doesn't fall off, you should watch that too. Fun Fact: Paul Hogan (Dundee) helped build the Sydney Harbor Bridge as a young man, visible in the background of the opening scene when Sue is talking on the phone.

2024-01-23 03:37:43 +0000 UTCI remember when I first watched this film in October of 1986. I saw it at a theater in a Mall at Wichita Falls Texas during the time I was Stationed at Sheppard AFB for Crew Chief training. It seams just like yesterday. 😊

2024-01-22 23:55:41 +0000 UTCAlways fun watching along with you two Sheila's. This was even more fun than I remembered and Mick is a lot of fun.

Rick Williams
2024-01-22 22:42:28 +0000 UTCThis movie was huge when it came out, I was in junior high. As for when he said his croc was about 15-16 feet, they've been known to get up around 20 feet, so not to much of an exaggeration. Also Sue's NY "friend" isn't Judge Reinhold the guy from the Santa Clause
Ryan Towell
2024-01-22 22:26:50 +0000 UTCSo enjoyable - he's a friend! Happy Australia Day!
Terry Yelmene
2024-01-22 21:57:59 +0000 UTCI really enjoyed watching your reaction. It was more fun than I was hoping for. I had a hunch you would like Mick's charming and innocent character. "Crocodile Dundee" was actually inspired by a real-life person, bushman Rod Ansell. He became stranded in the Northern Territory and survived for 2 months with limited supplies and had to rely on his survival skills and his knowledge of the land to endure the harsh conditions. Paul Hogan loosely based Mick and his survival story on him. The sequel is not as good, but I do enjoy parts of it, and I'm sure you would too. I don't recall much of the third other than the fact I've seen it once.
Gábor Árki
2024-01-22 21:44:01 +0000 UTCThis is one of my Favorites. I love how reserved the film is. They could have been outlandish and made big “fish out water” jokes, but they didn’t. The whole film is Charming, especially Mick. I aspire to be Mick ‘Crocodile’ Dundee one day… or at least fully adopt his outlook on life. This World needs some more Mick Dundees. ———————————————- The actor who played Richard, was Mark Blum. (Not Judge Reinhold from The Santa Clause) He plays this type of character well. If Cassie & Carly ever get around to seeing the Comedies… Desperately Seeking Susan (1985)… starring Rosanna Arquette, Aidan Quinn and Madonna Blind Date (1987)… starring Bruce Willis, Kim Basinger and John Larroquette They will see Mark Blum again. PS: These films would be good for February. ;-)
Larry Darrell
2024-01-22 20:48:45 +0000 UTCThe sequel is decent enough but stop there. The third one is awful and the fourth one isn't really a Crocodile Dundee movie but rather a meta-comedy about Paul Hogan himself.
Odd Thomas
2024-01-22 20:14:07 +0000 UTCAnd the Jail Guard in Ghostbusters (1984).
Larry Darrell
2024-01-22 20:10:57 +0000 UTCNot sure if the ladies have heard yet about the scandalous affair (at the time) between Paul Hogan and Linda Kozlowski. Paul had been married for over 25 years and had five children with his current wife when the two met on set. He left his wife for Linda (who was about 20 years younger than him) and the two eventually married and stayed together until an amicable split 23 years later in 2013. Paul's first wife reportedly didn't speak to him for almost 17 years after he left her. A few other interesting tidbits: Paul Hogan co-wrote 'Crocodile Dundee' (and the sequel) and the screenplay won multiple awards, with him also taking home a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Comedy. Hogan turned down the starring role in the hit film Ghost, choosing instead to make Almost an Angel. In the early 1990s, a Paramount executive pitched a concept of a Crocodile Dundee and Beverly Hills Cop crossover movie.

2024-01-22 19:51:29 +0000 UTCI mentioned it, except I said it was a cape buffalo. Both are pretty similar: big, black, horney, aggressive, and dangerous. 😄

2024-01-22 19:28:59 +0000 UTCI realy hoped to see TWO smiling faces when I clicked the link! Thats such a silly movie you need to have someone there to share the fun :) Ok lets do this
Dioskur
2024-01-22 19:24:53 +0000 UTCI remember I was 10 years old when my dad took me to see this (I believe it was actually the first PG-13 movie I ever saw in a theater). I loved it then and I love it now. This was the surprise runaway hit of 1986, made an international superstar of comedian Paul Hogan and created a charming memorable character in Mick Dundee. The sequel is okay. Not as good as this one imo, but still worth seeing if you like this character I just want to spend more time with him. Anyway, fun reaction and good choice for Australia day. Another Australian movie you both might consider watching (as I know you will both love it) is STRICTLY BALLROOM. It was Baz Luhrmann's debut feature and although I'm not the biggest fan of his, I do adore that film.

2024-01-22 19:18:29 +0000 UTCJeez! My condolences to you and everyone else having to shell out much needed income for streaming service after streaming service. And then only to discover they don't even have what you're looking for. I've been hearing this same problem being voiced by a lot of people. And the more I hear it, the more I think it's intentionally being done to get more of our money. 😔
Zane From Canada
2024-01-22 19:13:58 +0000 UTCSince my last post regarding my frustration in a lot of recent movies not being available on the various streaming services generated a lot of sympathetic responses, I wanted to throw this out there.

2024-01-22 17:36:04 +0000 UTCSame problem here. I actually own this on DVD but it's a UK copy and therfore PAL not NTSC. So the sync speed is out. I'd happily buy or rent a digital copy but not available on Amazon UK... so I'm really disappointed I can't watch this till one is available. It's like it's been blacklisted here in the UK. Oh well. Maybe soon.

Kim Brink
2024-01-22 17:10:00 +0000 UTCgreat reaction, happy you enjoyed it. The sequel is probably one of my favorite movies of my childhood. While this was more of a romcom type vibe, the next one is more of an action movie, but not too violent, not worse than something like Die Hard.

ROBERT CLARK
2024-01-22 13:11:51 +0000 UTCBeen a while since I have seen this. I am glad that Cassie and Carly got to watch it together. "Hoges" (as Paul Hogan is know to most Australians) was always that knockabout, larrikin bloke. He started out as painter on the Sydney Harbour bridge before turning to comedy and having a very successful prime time comedy show through the mid 70s, early 80s before moving into film with "Crocodile Dundee", with a very successful tourist campaign in between. Hopefully a few more Australian movie bob up every now and again, as there are some good ones out there. Being a part of this channel does make me think about Aussie movies I haven't thought about in a fair while because they might be good options. One such movie is "Dead Calm" a thriller with Sam Neill, Nicole Kidman, Billy Zane and a yacht.
Mojo One Thousand
2024-01-22 12:03:39 +0000 UTCThe guy who played Richard was not in The Santa Clause. I think you may have been thinking about Judge Reinhold who was in Beverly Hills Cop. They do have a similar look to them. The guy who played Richard also passed away a few years ago. Only 69.
Brian McGovern
2024-01-22 11:48:37 +0000 UTC"The shrimp on the barbie" tourist campaign is still one of the most successful in the history of Tourism Australia, but we find it funny because we don't actually use the terms "shrimp" we call them "prawns".
Mojo One Thousand
2024-01-22 11:43:39 +0000 UTCThis was fun! Your reactions were great. I've always liked this movie. Mick is charming and very likeable. The sequel is also really good. I'm glad that you both liked it!
Phillip Bates
2024-01-22 11:34:51 +0000 UTCDifficult to believe it’s nearly 40 years since I first saw this. Just a really good fun 80s movie. One I never tire of watching. The sequel is entertaining enough and well worth watching. It just doesn’t have the charm of this one, in my opinion.
James UK
2024-01-22 11:03:28 +0000 UTCEurope Day is a day that commemorates the vision of a peaceful and united Europe, especially within the framework of the European Union. It is celebrated on May 9 every year, the date of the historic 'Schuman declaration' that laid out the foundations for a new kind of political cooperation between European countries after two devastating world wars. The Schuman Declaration was put forward by Robert Schuman on May 9, 1950, which led to the establishment of the European Coal and Steel Community, the forerunner and the foundation on which the European Economic Community and then the European Union has been built upon.

Hail to the King
2024-01-22 10:32:35 +0000 UTCThe trick to doing the Australian accent is to speak through your nose/top of your mouth. Once you’ve got that worked out flatten your vowels and add a rising intonation (uptalk) to the end of sentences. Finally, never pronounce the letter r unless it’s the start of the word. So, Carly would be Caah-lee with a long ah sound. Putting r sounds in is where Americans always get caught out.

Björn Karlsson
2024-01-22 08:48:20 +0000 UTCI remember when this was first advertised, thinking “The guy in the ‘put another shrimp on the barbie, mate’ commercials is in a movie?” This was also the movie I took my ex-wife to on our first date. Although the second movie wasn't as good at the first, it is still quite enjoyable. Shortly after filming the second movie, Linda Kozlowski (Sue) and Paul Hogan (Mick) were married. They remained married for more than twenty years. When asked about their "failed" marriage, Hogan said that they had twenty good years and he didn't consider that a failure. Apparently, despite the divorce, they remained close. PS: I highly recommend the documentary "Not Quite Hollywood", all about Australian cinema - particularly low budget/exploitation cinema (Ozploitation). I'm a huge fan of the documentary and Ozploitation films in general. PPS: I’d also like to recommend the movie “Rogue”, directed by Greg McLean for this October. Imagine “Jaws” but with a salt water croc and set in the outback instead of New England.
