Baz is my favorite director, he is a genious. love all his movies and can’t wait for Autralia! Nicole and Hugh make a good couple and she is beautiful in this pic!

Moulin Rouge is my favorite film ever! I know Australia will never be better than this but i hope it’s a good film.
I think Nicole can’t be better with Baz, he understands her as no one!
I like Hugh, but i would prefer Russel for the role!

Why doesn’t someone write a movie about Australia that isn’t about the Australian outback? According to Hollywood we’re all horse riding, crocodile wrestlers. I’m Australian, but I’ve never seen the outback nor have I ever seen a kangaroo, crocodile etc apart from in a zoo. There is more to Australia than the outback.

@Matt:
I know what you mean, as a German I am always expected to be running around in a “Dirndl Dress” “yodelling” and drinking lots of beer.

Nevertheless I went to see most parts of my country ( including castle “Neuschwanstein”, the “Reeperbahn” and the “Lorelei” ;-) )

And you have to admit that the Australian outback has something of the secret call of adventure and the spirit of freedom ( at least for Europeans I guess ).

I always thought that every Australian tries at least to visit the Outback once in his life and to caress a Koala and look out for a Kangaroo. Your nature is one of the most special, rare, precious and beautiful in the world.
Although your cities are also worth a movies for sure….

Hey Nora, Yeah that’s exactly it. I’ve held a Koala, fed Kangaroo’s etc but this is all at the zoo. The Australian Outback is an adventure etc, but I think it holds a major stereotype about the rest of us, the way we talk, our accents etc.

Looks like a good movie.HUGH, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL EYES!!! He really is too handsome,I love him!!!

I will go see it for Hugh Jackman(who, by the way, has the best name on the planet). I hope that his performance will better her’s.

Oh! So freakin excited, Moulin Rouge is like my favorite movie ever, although I’m going to miss McGregor, seeing as that Lurhmann & Kidman are together once more…But Jackman’s a worthy alternative, lol.

#25 - you don’t need to have ANY doubts about Hugh Jackman. He is a very talented, versatile actor who can play any part (not just Wolverine) and will likely steal the movie right out from under Ms. Kidman’s pretty little nose. I just hope that having Nicole in this movie doesn’t jinx it.

Funny that people call The Golden Compass a flop when it is not!! It has only been out 2 weeks world wide & has made over $135 million dollars & is not even open everywhere in the world yet.

The His Dark Materials books are not that well known in the US. Plus the stupid boycotts of a movie before it was even shown. So arguements that the movie is a “”bomb” at the box office are a bust.

About the movie, “Australia.” It isn’t just about the outback it is about the bombing of Darwin, Australia by the Japanese. It will help give some Australians a history lesson, at least a background into what a lot of people forget the farther away from that history they get. Just as Americans have trouble with Pearl Harbor & how important that day is in history.

ohh i love to see all these Nic hatters writting.they are so predictable. sorry to say this to you, but 2008 will be Nicole’s year: with The Reader and Australia, she will shine!!!!

I’m not a ‘Nicole hater’, but weren’t people saying that 2007 was Nicole’s year? LOL.

yaaaaaaaaaaay! Thank you Jared! I love Nicole Kidman and CanNOT wait to see this film!

weeeee! :D

All that talk of Hugh “stealing” the movie from underneath Nicole is plain SILLY and STUPID. They are co-stars. Nobody ever said Nicole “owned” the movie. Time to trim your catty claws.

And 2007 has been a very good year for Nicole! Margot At The Wedding is also doing wonderfully!

Beautiful Nicole. I love her.

I LOVE NICOLE!!!!! SHE´S A AWESOME ACTRESS!!!!! TBDT :)

SHE´S PRECIOUS INSIDE AND OUT!!!

Marlene Dietrich @ 12/22/2007 at 12:51 pm

She reminds me of Grace Kelly on that picture.

They can manage to cover the grey for this yet she walks around looking haggered…WHY is that? Gorgeous photo, though.

fauxmance alert!

I hope he gets his kit off in this movie

What a beautiful (natural) picture of Nicole!

Baz himself said the Red Curtain trilogy is different to Australia. So it won’t be added. IMO, there was only one GREAT movie in that trilogy and that was Strictly Ballroom.

Im SOOOO excited for this movie!!!

re helena in a way it was kind of her year. for once i truly believe she is at peace with herself. shes has found a love like no other and finally feels like she can just be. thats more of an amazing achievement than any film doing well. well imo anyway

but im so excited for this movie. nicole is amazing, and immensly talented! she beautiful in that picture! & hugh well he’s hot.
