"keeper275 from United States". Pommy is what Australians call the English. It isn't really a term of endearment, rather a bit of an insult. Where is comes from is open to argument. Some say it's an Acronym for "Prisoners Of Mother England" while other say it's because the poms are so lily white that when exposed to sun they turn the colour of a Pomeranian (red)! Either way, you don't ever want to be confused with a Pom!
Not enough lines so here goes "I love a sunburnt country, A land of sweeping plains. Of rugged mountain ranges, of drought and flooding rains. I love her far horizons, I love her jewel sea. Her beauty and her terror, the wide brown land for me". My Country by Dorothea Mackellar

I liked this movie. Once again I was worried about the large number of critics who gave it a roasting but once again I learned that most critics have an agenda which is not related to honestly reviewing a movie. I don't give a fig what the critics say, it's an entertaining movie. It's not meant to be informative it's meant to entertain and this it does. I think Baz should have given it another name if he wants it to succeed in the USA and Britain. "Australia" is fine here but he's setting himself up for the usual anti Australian backlash in Britain and a comparison with the "old west" in the USA. That said I think Hugh and Nicole did a great job and Australia as usual supplied the wonderous settings and landscape.
Come on everyone! Take a deep breath and calm down. It's just a movie, aimed at Hollywood's core audience; Americans under 25 so stop taking it personally. I'm sure the Producers or the Director never intended to insult the entire non-American world; after all the owner of Fox is Australian born so he can't be totally anti the world. The movie is pure fantasy escapism and any political or racial overtones (or under-tones) are purely coincidental. Anti American rantings like those posted here just confirm the average American's view that the rest of us in the world are rabble. Cheer up and smile. Good movie for a wet winters day.
