Really?!
Unless this is some kind of metajoke where the joke is on the people that pay money to see this movie and we're supposed to laugh at them, this cannot be real.
Who's paying for this to get made? Because they clearly have too much money.
My god. The first one was the worst. This will be the worst. Just... yikes.
THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS.
shareno way can you be Australian if you didnt like the wog boy its a classic along with The Castle
shareHahaha I think you are right, but I do know people that disagree.
I find Wog Boy and The Castle hilarious, but sometimes I can see how they might appear as an "in joke" for all Melbournians.
You can't have grown up in Melbourne and not get it, it's too funny!!!
Very true Spunky Star, I just watched this and laughed all the way through it. I'm white Australian, Anglo-Saxon, British descent, etc, etc and I loved this. I've seen quite a lot of Nick Giannopoulos' work over the years (The Wog Boy, Wogs Out Of Work, Acropolis Now, etc) and he's always extracted a laugh (or three) out of me.
It's never about political correctness or anything, it always seems to be about the differences between Greek Australians and Anglo Australians and Nick G has been masterful at exposing, highlighting and sending up those differences.
I'm a Melbourne Boy and I agree that sometimes you need a Melbourne sense of humour to get a film like this. Or at least an idea of what makes Melbourne tick.
This may not be a film that translates too well outside of Australia.
When I said I wanted to be a comedian, they all laughed at me. Well, they're not laughing now!
I easily admit it wasn't the best movie, but to say it wasn't good is just being a complete dick.
