Someone Remake this for an American audience!

No, they should open the market more for foreign films so that they have as much a chance in America as American films have in their lands. It's stupid that they should struggle so hard to get their own films made while the Americans spend three hundred million making *beep* films like Spiderman 3.

My apologies to the Americans
Did the Australians leave off the laugh tape so that the Americans did'nt know when to laugh

One of my pet hates of American comdedy is the incessant laugh tape. Its demeaning to the audience and to the actors. It should be their craft and the interpretation of that craft that causes the laughter - not the finger of a producer.

Yeah, I suspect it's really hard to get normal size handcuffs around a film reel.


Happiness is a belt-fed weapon.

Of Course! Remake this for an American audience, genius.

First of all SET IT AMERICA, as we all know Americans are too dumb to cope with such concepts as foreign lands.

Have an ALL AMERICAN CAST, none of those weird foreign accents or quirks, or in-jokes that Americans are too untravelled and un-worldwise to understand.

Then TAKE ALL THE HUMOUR OUR, or at least any humour more sophisticated than you would find in a a Saddler/Stiller/Carell movie. (For a good example of how this is done see; "The Lady Killers", or "Dinner for Schmucks".)

Then have at least ONE POSITIVE BLACK CHARACTER, oh and a gay person, and the females must all be strong emancipated women, who really want nothing more than to settle down and have kids. (yes I know.)

Right take out any signs of intelligence, substitute with cliché, take out drama, add melodrama, take out emotion, substitute with saccharine, sprinkle with a dose of Mom's apple pie and ensure each character is seen to have some redeeming features.

Cast one BIG STAR, have his stupid gurning mug all over the posters, otherwise no American will know if they want to see it or not.

Next pretend this is a WHOLLY ORIGINAL MOVIE. Spend utter $$$ millions on it, esp. on promoting it.

Finally, when the rest of the word calls you totally unoriginal, uncreative, unfunny, morons, pretend not to know what they are talking about.
