Couple that with it being about a FISHING expedition, and man, won't they just be lining up in droves to pay $14 to see that. This is one of those movies where you just wonder why they even bother, count the seconds until it disappears from the cinema. Well, to the gushing extra (who apparently isn’t getting paid)

Does it rely on the actors who play the lead role or on the quality of the original story ? Let's see if this film can outgross Crocodile Dundee at the box office. I bet it doesn't !

On a sour note i wasnt too impressed with Paul Hogans attitude. i got the impression he thought he was better than us extras. Shane on the other hand is definitely a down to earth Aussie. I met him on set where he introduced himself and shook my hand. And i ended up seated next to him at lunch on my last day on set. It was amazing that even though he is a succesfull actor he wasn't above talking to the little nobodys like me. Cant wait to see this movie! Unfortunately we weren't allowed to take pictures but it still was really amazing! Asha like JS i was also an extra in the movie.

This film will be sensational. Shane Jacobson is the quintessential 'Natural Comedian' and Paul Hogan is a 'National Treasure'. What better combination could there be?. How do I know C&B is a smash hit? - because I'm a lucky lucky extra and the past two days have been two of the best days of my life. Incredible crew + great cast = hopefully worldwide phenomenon. At least it does for this utterly green little would-be-if-I-could-be. Don't miss this flick X Hi There,
