Spencer and Dave are going back to the 80s to talk the classic film, Crocodile Dundee. Starring Paul Hogan and Linda Kozlowski in a mix genre of adventure, romance, and comedy as local Australian hero and legend, Mick Dundee is interviewed by Sue Charlton for her dad's newspaper back in New York City. She journeys to the Australian bush to see this croc wrangler's life in action then decides to bring the man back to the city to see a different kind of wildlife.
The film is just pure excellence, great jokes, fun characters, and between this and Mad Max, this is where Americans learn all the core elements of the Australian way of life. Dundee is a pure old world manly man, who takes care of business and meets new friends everywhere he goes. So charismatic that you can only hope to be like him as much as possible.
We watched the film on Amazon Prime which still has the original American version intact and uncensored. Unlike that Encore 4K version that came out just a while back that censored out like 2 minutes of the movie. Which, there is nothing truly offensive in this comedy. It's just a man from a different world, making comments on new discoveries. And art should never be tampered with. That is the biggest slippery slope to censorship across the board.
Beyond that version, there is the Australian version that adds about 10 minutes more in along with more Australian slang. I tried to find a way to watch that film here in the States, but it seems like the only practical way to secure that version is to buy an Australian DVD and get an All Region Player. One day that would be cool to see on a proper 4K Blu Ray Release.
