AndyCLS: Mad Max was never called Road Warrior in oz.
Only Mad Max 1/ Mad Max 2/ Mad Max 3 Beyound Thunderdome.p

I think we're agreeing in two different ways.

I thought you were saying that the first Mad Max was called The Road Warrior in the US.

Mad Max and The Road Warrior are two seperate movies.

Road Warrior is a sequel to Mad Max.

Babel, I have a feeling that might have been a New Zealand movie, starring Danielle Cormack. But I haven't seen it and can't think of its name! Now it's going to bother me until I work it out! :%)

Someone help me!

ooo now it's a kiwi one ! but the mother says something along the lines of "oh thank god it's quantas" after she passes out or something and they have to leave india early. That and the excessive sunshine and kangaroos going across the road lead me to believe it was aussie and not brit . ... that and I think they said it was in oz .

I love Aussie movies.

Some favourites of mine that haven't been mentioned:

The Rage in Placid Lake
Garage Days

There are so many others. My mind is drawing a blank though!

Oh, for a newer one, One Perfect Day. Melodramatic, but pretty good.

didn't that crocodile hunter, Steve Irwin, also make a movie?
Shhhhh doc
Troy, you forgot Split Enz

We also made some great car movies like Midnight Spares, Running on empty and metal skin. I never really got Picnic at hanging rock :%) but the music was haunting.

The only one I've seen other than the Steve Erwin sp* one was one of Nicole Kidman's very first movies.

"BMX Bandits"

Great flick, but it has been yrs since I last saw it.
