I felt that ascene where he imagined Alfonz firing auzis in the stripclub went for a bit along.

Post a clip, I don't watch broadcast tv so haven't seen it.
Honestly why bother though after Dominik/Bana's Chopper? Bar is too high and story has been told.

some part of me wishes Bana would come back and make Chopper 2: The Choppening.

Isn't there multiple books of source material?

There is but they're just full of bullshit that isn't interesting. Virtually everything worth telling about Chopper was in Chopper.

If it isn't Heath Franklin's rendition, I don't care.

>any australian drama that is passable and not like the other 99% of absolute garbage reality tv shit is forever doomed to be le gangland shit or le epic chopper and other glorified degenerate criminals thats already been told a hundred times before

why is australian television so godawful, it is literally one of the worst in the world

Aussie tv is trash tier. You perfectly summed it up. Just reality tv and gang shit

>one of
It is legitimately the worst. Home improvement, cooking and talent shows. If you don't like that your options are one off gangland shit, boomer seachange dramas or going to the (((sbs))) or (((abc))) to be told white people are terrible.

too bad. I discovered Chopper back when Netflix used to mail you discs.

Great AUSKino

It's hard to find anything with just his dialogue specifically. But basically everytime he has some lines he adds really stranges inflections too frequently

It's my favourite Aussie film. And that includes all the great shit we made before they got rid of the decent producers tax offset.
t. Aussie

Only thing I remember about chopper is the scene where he gets stabbed and doesn't even react. What happened to Dominik. Jesse James was such kino but kts was crap.

I think he must legitimately be copying the Heath Franklin Chopper.

I have never heard the real chopper do that.

>but kts was crap.
It absolutely was not. It was just unappreciated because it was deeply cynical about the political optimism of the Democrats post Bush that came to nought.
He's supposedly been working on some Marilyn Monroe pick for years but nothing has ever come of it. He also has the rights to McCarthy's Cities of the Plains but also nothing happened with it.
His films aren't commercially successful so he will always have an uphill battle to get funding unless he gets top tier actors invested in what he's working on like PTA does.

Because there is virtually no funding nor interest in Australia for the creative arts, TV is a propaganda vehicle for Murdoch, we have tall poppy syndrome as a people.
There's a reason every successful Australian actor has had to go to Hollywood and do American film/TV to become known. Hardly anyone, particularly larger media, supports local artists.

It's because it's not financially viable for private investors anymore. Virtually all funding for film and television in Australia comes from the government and these out of touch boards have no clue what they're doing and worse ridiculously impossible prerequisites to actually get funding. Even Wan and Whannel when they developed their Saw short and script did not even bother trying to get funding here because genre films have no chance, they went straight abroad.

KTS was decent but got knocked down like 3 points for its horrific political shit

Reality tv like married at first sight, MKR and Masterchef are massively popular here that’s why they get all the attention. Don’t know who the hell watches all these copy paste gangland dramas of the same 3 families to warrant them being made every week.

Why was it horrific?

hamfisted and it tries to beat you over the head with it, made me feel like i was watching a self righteous university students project

I guess it's a perspective thing. I didn't really see it as hamfisted, the juxtaposition works quite well imo. It's just not a message many want to hear.

fuck off neville

I love this ending even if I think Brad's delivery could be a bit better

It's not what it says but how it says it.
Zero subtlety and too topical, it already aged like milk. Characters constantly used as mouthpieces instead of visual storytelling or interesting subtext, the constant tvs with speeches in scenes backgrounds to make the parallels really heavy handed. It's neither a good political film nor a good crime film. Lack of subtlety also applies to the genre treatment, ie stuff like playing Lou Reed while a character shoots H. It's really dumb and tasteless, compared to a classic like Eddie Coyle or Point Blank which had the cynical social subtext while still being kickass genre pulp. I really wanted to like it but was very disappointed. It's not complete trash but still... He really had his head too far up his ass.

Also interesting that he wants to adapt Mccarthy, The Counselor had very similar issues.

Keithy seems to have done himself a mischief. Off to the sickbay, mate.

I'm not sure it's aged like milk desu. I watched it maybe 7 months ago on a whim because I saw it was on in the EPG (got it sitting on the shelf in dvd but whatever) and it probably seemed a little more poignant and telling than I initially remembered. I'll admit it can be a little heavy handed in its political subtext and does lack subtlety but it doesn't stop it being a strong film. It's never going to be one of the best of its genre but at the same time I think it's unfairly maligned.

Holy shit didn't know about this, thanks user

Bana movie was kino

Isn't Chopper a notorious bullshit artist?

Yes. The movie makes no light of that fact. No idea about this new series.

I was hoping OP was going to prank us with a Comedy Chopper/Uncle Chop-Cop clip.
He pushed that whole saying "eeh" before every other word thing to it's logical extreme.

You guys had Danger 5. Those dudes should have been Kings of Australia after that.
But they've done like two small youtube videos since it finished. WTF.

Peter Jackson was so lucky he wasn't born in Australia.

We are creatively bankrupt for the most part and the few that aren't struggle to find an audience because of that.

here is the guy himself

>Ronnie Johns
Fucking hilarious shit with Chopper. I would stay up and watch it just for his segment at the end of the show.

I am genuinely confused to why they didn't keep working with SBS.
Was Danger 5 S2 a success? Don't know why or how they're doing this little indie projects of theirs.

>All those "ehs" and "uhs"
Had to close it. Awful.
It's an interpretation of the Ronnie Corbert Chopper which in itself was already an interpretation of the Eric Bana Chopper which was an interpretation of the man. The parody has actually taken on more life than the man. It's actually quite comical when you think about it.

cant C

It's for australian eyes only

Fucking racist upside down niggers
