The most awesome thing possible...

[Cirtur]

I cannot help you

[Apocalyptus]

Really, I always saw myself as more of a Christine. (There's a Christine in Sex and the City, right?)

Sadly, I can help you. There's.. Samantha, Carrie... errr. Ok I'm relieved I can't remember the other two. But there is no Christine.
Darn you, friends who always want to watch Sex and the City when you have man troubles! Which is all the time!

Well there's your problem.

[Apocalyptus]

I can't de friend people just because they like to watch Sex and the City. Although I'll admit it was a close thing when I met them at the movies and they said we were seeing Australia. God what a horrible film.

[Cirtur]

What was the plot?

[Apocalyptus]

Surely you're not that lazy, Cirtur.

I immediately recognized the phrase in context, but couldn't for the life of me place it. Thank you.

Maybe they are just really patriotic.

[Apocalyptus]

If you're really patriotic, you won't see that film. It's pretty much just a tourism advertisement made for foreigners, it doesn't have much to do with what Australia is actually like.

[Snarky00]

But it says Australia right in the name. How could they have gone so wrong?

[Apocalyptus]

Three words. Nicole, Kidman, and 'crikey'.

Yes, but surely they'd have to see it to know that, right?
And it's Baz Luhrman, so it was probably meant to be a slap in the face of Australia. Just like Moulin Rouge was a slap in the face of romantic movie lovers (even though most wouldn't recognize that they got slapped) and R+J was a slap in the face of Shakespeare lovers (kind of).

That was a very long synopsis.

[Edminster]

Over five thousand words long, goddamn.

[Cirtur]

I know I didn't read it.
