      Aaron, you guys are welcome here in Australia at any time! We’ll look after you.
      Australia and New Zealand are very different places despite being the same part of the world. Visit your friends in NZ, John - the wildlife you’re scared of are only here in Australia.
      Best Australian movies IMO are Strictly Ballroom (I think Baz Luhrman’s first movie),
      BMX Bandits (baby Nicole Kidman)
      The Castle,
      Crackers (Christmas movie) and Rabbitproof Fence (the only serious one on the list).

In the film some of his views can be seen as sexist, racist, or transphobic (even for the 80's) but he doesn't know any better. He's a good person and means no harm by it and people get that, theres no malice to him saying some of these things its just ignorance. When things are explained he does he best to keep up and thats why people like him

    It's still a fun movie all these years later. Growing up in Australia in the 80's, Paul Hogan was a huge deal because he was a very ordinary dude, a working class bloke who worked on the arch of the Sydney Harbour Bridge as a rigger and saw talent show called New Faces where the judges would be rude and nasty to the contestants, he thought they deserved the same back, went on the show and did so well that the rest is history.
    He had a very popular sketch comedy show on network TV called the Paul Hogan show that run from like '73 to '84, that he basically wrapped up to go all in making this movie. There's lots of clips and segments from the show on TH-cam, it's fun, lowbrow humour, an Aussie Benny Hill in a lot of ways.

It's a throughfare town that people pass through on the way to mines and such, it's about 150 miles to the nearest city of any sort in Mt Isa and about 1000 miles inland from Brisbane. It's literally the middle of nowhere.

      @@StardustandMadness 100%, but I also look at it in the context of when it was made, unfortunately that's an era where cheap shots regarding LGBTQIA+ were pretty common in films, even up until well in the 90's the thought of men as women was used as cheap laughs in a lot of shows and movies and not just Australian ones.
      I look at this film as very much a piece of it's time, not just as a movie but also as a snapshot of that time in general, yeah there's a few bits that have aged poorly like a lot of movies of the day, but the cast and the performances as a whole are still charming and fun to me.

      I personally have never seen any point to any kind of bigotry. We are just tiny Humans, all trying to make our way in the world. Freedom would be the key, just too bad we have so many control freaks among the population. They want NO FREEDOMS for anybody but themselves, they want the entire population of Earth to be their slaves as if they own us.
      I really do not agree with the notion that any Human should be GIVEN dominion over other Humans, that is a PRIVILEGE and not a RIGHT for anybody, an EARNED PRIVILEGE and those in charge had better make for some really great Public Servants.
      In the case of Family Units, the Parents should EARN the right to be in charge. Mandatory classes for parenting and maybe make them years-long, like getting College degrees in order to qualify to have kids.
      Otherwise, people should be free.

    The scene in the bar? First you're right it was the 80's. Second Mick is from a very small Australian town. How many cross-dressers or trans people do you think he's seen in Walkabout Creek? The man hasn't watched more tv than the intro to I Love Lucy in his life. He has no idea what's going on outside of his own remote area of Australia.

    As a transgender woman and being from the particular time, I never had an issue with a comedic situation that Mick was in. He played to his character in the situation.
    Society has to stop sugarcoating situations for the sake of someone's social agenda. We can't be afraid to be exposed to a certain era and its beliefs of that time. It doesn't make it right from a certain view point, but if you write a character that responds by a way that goes against society because of that character's back story and not having been exposed to the outside world. His response was, well to be sure a natural one giving his naive nature in the story
    So please don't be too offended because we aren't all that fragile as human beings.
    And on a side note, you guys are doing a great job and thank you for your concern anyways.😊

      @@ReelRejectsI think he did that because a man dressed as a woman seemed absurd to him, so his response was equally so. Ultimately it was a man misleading him, so it was a fair response. Dundee is a man who understands the laws of nature, and the only way to put right in his mind what was going on was to check the sex of the person. It quickly cleared up his obvious confusion on what was happening. In his world, (the natural world), men are men, and women are women. The transvestite knew that he was naive and took advantage of that. There should be more empathy for Dundee - he was being taken advantage of - we seem to have lost sight of this reality. Im sorry this has happened to society, to men and women who were just minding their own business. I have lots of empathy for men in these situations. It isn’t fair at all.

    I've seen several reactors recently who have a problem with the plot points where someone who is not married but in a dating relationship starts falling for someone else. But that happens all the time in real life. Someone is dating a person who's not really right for them and meets someone who is a better fit. You don't meet someone and that day decide that you must break up with your current relationship and start dating this person. Falling in love is a gradual thing. This movie is pretty realistic on that issue. She feels an attraction for Mick, but doesn't leave her boyfriend. She keeps emphasizing that she's in a relationship. She does kiss Mick spontaneously, but she doesn't sleep with him. That would be a conscious decision. Over time, she realizes that she does love Mick and not the other guy. It's not shown but insinuated that between the proposal and her going to the hotel to see Mick she had broke up with the boyfriend.
    I saw some other reactors watching The Wedding Singer getting upset that she was emotionally cheating on her boyfriend. No, she was falling in love and trying to figure out her emotions. If people are not allowed to experience their emotions, they're going to be stuck in unhappy relationships.

      It was pretty much just the crotch grab / public humiliation moment that felt like it dipped momentarily out of the overall tone of good nature into something a bit meaner, perhaps uncalled for. Like in context of when it was made, I get this was just a “normal” kind of joke - and we acknowledge this in the reaction AND the review - but part of living with art is that times and context change & things can hit different in light of that. So in that sense, I don’t think it’s unfair in a First Time Reaction filmed in 2024 to acknowledge what might not have aged as well as most of the rest of what’s here. I think it’s silly to assert that you can ONLY watch an ‘80s move through the SPECIFIC lens of an ‘80s viewer and that’s the ONLY way to engage with art from that era (or whatever era it might be). And the irony is that, aside from that beat, we had a blast with the rest of the movie! Like, at NO point are we trying to “cancel” Dundee or remove the film from existence. I feel like we can hold two ideas in hand at once here?

    • @juhagabrieltakkinen1131
      @juhagabrieltakkinen1131 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Fair points all and I will concede I had a bit too much vitriol. However I still will argue this one point, first I will state that the joke itself was cringe af as it served zero purpose for the overall story and added no depth whatsoever to the character. So to my contention: the main character is shown to be a person from the outback totally disconnected from the modern world surrounded by gruff farmer and outdoors types with a fairly limited world view and knowledge. Then we are shown how Donk takes getting kissed by a man, even tho main character is supposedly his friend he is literally trying to knock him out cold. Now given that this is ever so quitley shown to be the typical response to anything out of the so called norm, when we are faced with the Gwendolyn scenario the audience is almost made to expect violent response. Yet that is not who Dundee is and having no clue how to approach the situation he goes for the grab. Whether or not it is a good move to go for, the character has no frame of reference as to how to act. And as for needing "specific" lenses to appreciate art that is not what I meant at all. I merely suggested that one cannot take normative standards from times past and judge them by todays standard, only to virtue signal. What can be done is to discuss the scene and try and understand the motivations thereof. In conclusion I do stand by my earlier statement of liking your channel and liking you all as reactioners, yet I can still find this type of virtue signaling massively obnoxious but as Ricky Gervais has said "Everyone is allowed to offend everyone and everyone is allowed to get offended". But I like your argument there and appreciate the response, thank you and I will keep enjoying your channel same as before. @@ReelRejects

      I remember going out in the early 2000’s and a group of transvestites would always arrive at a certain point in the evening and zero in on drunk straight men. They told us in the bathroom they enjoyed messing with straight men in particular, it made them feel powerful - it was a game to them. They believed all straight men could be turned. I remember a drunk guy kissing one of them for hours - he had no idea. The look on his face when he found out was heartbreaking, he had literally been assaulted by those men. It was awful to see, and I will never forget how disgusting it was. Why are these poor men not protected!? That was assault pure and simple. Where do men go for help??

    This is a classic 80’s film and I think it's charm holds up well. Just because things are a product of its time doesn't mean they handle things wrong; I would even argue that Dundee is a very progressive character. He's naive to life in the city but, he continues to grow throughout his experiences. He doesn't pass judgment on prostitutes, drug addicts, even the trans girl at the bar - he just didn't know not to grab someone's genitals. He even kisses the guy at the joint that makes him drop his beer. We don't know what we don't know - so given another month or two with meeting different types of people I have no doubt would be marching in pride parades.

      He's also not being racist. They stress over and over how isolated he's been in his life and how close he is to the Aboriginal people, including the friend specifically featured. Meaning he has like seen only white people or Aboriginal people and so when he's talking to the limo driver he's treating him the same way he'd treat anyone else and in his mind is probably going even further by asking questions about his relationship with society that would be entirely relevant if he were still in Australia. He likely wouldn't have realized there were people in the world with darker skin tones that weren't Aborginal.

    1. Richard had his eye on her father's newspaper empire more than on her. 2. Richards fate was sealed w/the crocodile incident & further confirmed by the, "That's not a knife" event... "Whenever I'm with you I feel safe"... It's not how manly he is. It's how he makes her feel. Richard never gave her that feeling & she likes it. & 3. Came of age in the 80's, They toned it (way) down for the film. Openly groped dance partners on the dance floor every weekend.

      I like your point about how she felt safe with Mick not being about how ‘manly’ he is. There are some men who just don’t make us feel that way. It’s not an actual ‘oh this guy is NOT going to attack me feeling’ or ‘my guy could beat any other guy to a pulp’, it’s so difficult to explain. It’s an emotional safety, I guess. Feeling free to be yourself without worrying he’ll walk out the door because you’re being open and honest with him.

    Many of us Aussies used to drink Fosters back in the 1970s & 1980s. I found it very similar to VB back when it was brewed here in by CUB. Carlton United Breweries. It has since changed and is brewed in different countries.
    From Wikipedia, "Foster's Group Pty. Ltd. was an Australian beer group with interests in brewing and soft drinks, known for Foster's Lager, now called Carlton & United Breweries since the company was renamed in 2011. Foster's was founded in 1888 in Melbourne, Victoria by two American brothers, who sold the brewery a year later.
    The company was renamed prior to sale to British-South African multinational SABMiller in 2011. Foster's wine business was split into a separate company, Treasury Wine Estates, in May 2011. In October 2016 Anheuser-Busch InBev acquired SABMiller, which ceased trading as a corporation, making the Foster's Group a direct subsidiary of the parent company. In June 2020, Carlton and United Breweries was sold to the Japanese beverage giant, Asahi Group Holdings."😎

    Paul Hogan and Linda Kozlowski got married in 1990, four years after this movie. I'm sure they were probably fooling around when making Crocodile Dundee II (1988) since he divorced his previous wife in 1989. Hogan and Kozlowski actually stayed married for a long time; they divorced in 2014.

    Also because you mentioned it made you uncomfortable, there are no scenes where Mick meets any LGTBQ+ individuals in the next movie. The plot does not involve a 'fish out of water' scenario like the first one. He's more or less adapted (in his own ways...) and the story goes somewhere else entirely. And it's a really good story so I highly recommend it! In the third movie - which is...ok. Not as good as the first two but still entertaining and a decent wrap to the story between Mick and Sue - Mick and a friend of his fresh from Australia accidently wander into a gay bar and quickly walk back out realizing their mistake. Mick takes a moment to explain the situation to his friend but does so with tact and respect - showing that he has grown quite a bit from his first days in New York. And it does make some sense (especially in the 80's) that a scene like that would be included. I mean how would someone who is completely sheltered from a modernized world handle a situation like that? In a bar in a modern city like New York, it's likely you'd come across someone with those characteristics. Clearly he didn't do it to be mean, he just didn't know and wanted to be sure. And it's that innocent naivety that makes him so charming and likable.

So many great movies get poopooed instead of enjoyed.I still highly recomend Crocodile Dundee 2 which is also a good movie.

    I’ve always liked you guys, but the more you talked after this movie, the more annoyed I became. Are you upset that someone completely unaware of a set of social norms (and actually, the social norms 30+ years into the future) didn’t conform to those norms? Or that the movie went there? Actually, I find the response for both possibilities annoying. You seem to be bending over backwards on the idea of “ acceptance”, but totally outraged - forget intolerant - of someone benignly ignorant.
    How would you honestly expect someone who’d never even heard of “men” dressing as “women” to react? He didn’t beat him up; he didn’t act threatened or even offended. He was amazed. Is that what you found intolerable? Personally, I think you missed the point - which is actually just as sound today! I was an adult when this movie came out, and the cringe worthy part at the time was Dundee asking the driver what tribe he came from. The point in both situations wasn’t his awkwardness - it was society’s overwrought assumptions about people’s beliefs based on our own assumptions about them. Being offended for someone else because you think you’re supposed to be offended is…well, offensive. Condescending.
    Honestly, I’m just disappointed.

    • @ReelRejects

      Just because the times were different doesn’t mean we have to like any specific moment. Like SO many of the arguments here have been “this was acceptable in the ‘80s, so it’s good and fine, and you should like it, because that’s comedy! And you can ONLY compare/contrast your own time period & life experience to things made specifically in that same time and NOWHERE ELSE!”
      Like I’m sad we don’t agree, and we acknowledge multiple times this is an average joke of the time period (not the first ‘80s comedy either of us has seen btw) - but in a movie so predicated on good nature & fun - and benign ignorance, as you stated - the crotch grab / public humiliation beat momentarily broke away from that illusion into something that felt a bit more benign-malicious, which pulled me out of an otherwise delightful & endearing, madcap experience. I wouldn’t say we lost our shit over it. There’s a difference between white knighting - which certainly can be cringe - and acknowledging that something rubbed you wrong & being honest about that in the moment (especially in a scenario where you’re SUPPOSED to be giving reactions & observations).
      Clearly a lot of people feel very strongly about their love for this particular gag. We laughed at tons of stuff throughout the movie & largely praised it while still acknowledging what didn’t work for us. Like SO much of this movie is “product of its time” territory - and most of that DOES work & it fuels a lot of the enduring charm. We don’t exist in a binary. Multiple things can be true at once.

      @@ReelRejects “Product of its time” wasn’t my main point. And the honest reaction in the moment didn’t annoy me AT ALL. It was the amount of time spent on this ONE part AFTER the movie, and the escalation of the “honest reaction” that annoyed me.
