Crocodile Dundee was the second most bad ass australin ever (Steve Irwin, RIP). Dundee had no fear and made sure no one messed with him and his lady.

We adore Crocodile Dundee in the States, but what do Australians think of the movie? Well, it’s actually the highest grossing film of all time (adjusted for inflation) in the Land Down Under.

And the second highest grossing film of all time? Last year’s Baz Luhrmann film, Australia, which was both critically and commercial panned in the U.S. I’m going to make a film called Australia: A Movie About Australians, The Best People Ever.

(This is a fan trailer. Is that music from the new Star Trek?)

When does something become nostalgic? When somebody decides to remake it, I suppose. ABC’s turning this 1983 sci-fi mini-series into a brand new series. I suspect disaster, but at least it’s based on fairly classic source material.

Generic stereotyped Native American does not like the way you treat his land!

Keep America Beautiful was established in 1953, about fifty years before environmentalism and “going green” became the cool thing all the cool kids were doing to be cool. Way cool. In addition to launching the iconic Crying Indian PSA, they also coined the term litterbug.

The true story behind the creation of Toss Across:

I’ve got this great idea.

Okay…

So what’s everyone’s favorite game of all time?

I don’t know. Monopoly? Risk

No, of ALL TIME!

Slow down, Kanye. Uh, chess? Checkers? Backgammon?

Who the **** likes Backgammon? Nobody plays Backgammon. Backgammon is ****ing stupid.

Okay, I get it: you don’t like Backgammon—

The correct answer was Tic-Tac-Toe.

Fine. What about Tic-Tac-Toe?

Now, what is everyone’s favorite thing to do?

(long sigh) Just tell me.

Lobbing beanbags at a target.

What? This already sounds like the worst idea ever.

No, just listen. If you combine Tic-Tac-Toe with lobbing beanbags, what do you get?

Hollywood Squares? But with the ability to hurl something at Whoopi when she’s not funny? That’s genius!

You’re getting warmer…

The Fox and the Hound is an underrated animated classic from the Disney canon. It’s actually a pretty clever parable about prejudice that thoughtfully challenges how society determines exactly what we’re supposed to do.

Whoa!
