Australia trailer now online

May 19th, 2008 | 2 Comments | Posted in movies

Nicole Kidman & Hugh JackmanThe new Baz Luhrmann film Australia has released its trailer online on Bigpond today before a general release online tomorrow. The new film stars Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman along with Bryan Brown, Jack Thompson, David Wenham, Barry Otto, Bill Hunter and John Jarrett. The cast list is really a who’s who of the Australian film industry.

The romantic action-adventure is set in northern Australia prior to World War II, about an English aristocrat (Kidman) who inherits an outback property the size of Belgium.

When English cattle barons plot to take her land, she reluctantly joins forces with a rough-hewn cattle driver (Jackman) to drive 2000 head of cattle across hundreds of miles of the country’s most unforgiving land, only to still face the bombing of Darwin by Japanese forces.

Australia will be released in cinemas across the country on November 13 and in the US on November 14th.

Who are you?

I got this comment on one of my posts;
“So: if indeed you are a thirty-something lesbian geek, as you claim, you’re probably into Le Tigre.”

I must admit I am left a little puzzled about why people might not think I am who I say I am. I know the internet is the place where people assume a fake identity, but geez, if I was going to fake someone to be on the ‘net, it certainly wouldn’t be a thirty something lesbian geek, that’s for sure. For one, I would pretend to be someone really cool as well as thin and gorgeous, definitely not a fat nerdy dyke. I would also blog about my really cool and interesting life where I would be living the high life, meeting famous people in coffee shops and posting pictures of myself at fabulous locations. But there is none of that here - I am really am a lesbian geek living in Sydney, Australia, leading a normal life.

Also, I am so into Le Tigre, I had to google them. No idea who or what they are. Apparently they are an American post-punk/electro-pop band. I guess that means my lesbian cred is now non-existent. Did I mention I was a geek? No idea about popular cool culture, but I bet I could kick Le Tigre’s ass at a Xena trivia contest. Yeah, I am so cool.
