Ah, you must be from the home of Cheddar!

In case anyone was wondering
Has anyone ever put on a rubber Calvin suit and made a kaiju movie?
Turning the house into his own Vomit Comet
I remember an article saying John Wick was in the fantasy tradition of parallel worlds (not multiverse, but another world alongside and only partly visible to the normal world).
Mostly a bunch of watch parties (synchronized viewing among people across the internet, with viewers posting comments live on Mastodon or in-built chat window). A mini "Kurt Russell season" this week.
-
Big Money Hustlas (2000) (seen in Disks n' Flicks) - Amateurish, obscene parody of 70s inner city crime movies starring hiphop duo the Insane Clown Posse. Loved it!
-
Big Trouble in Little China (1986) (seen in #KungFuSat - John Carpenter's classic China-themed action-comedy-fantasy. An absolute blast, as always.
-
Escape From New York (1981) (seen in #MondayActionMovie) - Carpenter and Russell's first outing, dystopian future where Manhattan is a prison and antihero Snake Plissken has to rescue the President. A great time was had by all.
-
John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023) - final outing in the action franchise. The first battle seemed unnecessary but I warmed up to the rest of the film.
-
The Little Shop of Horrors (1960) & Little Shop of Horrors (1986). I watched the original in #Comedon, light fun with abrupt ending, and then after Big Money Hustlas, watched almost all of the 1986 musical as part of the #Monsterdon "after party" on Miru.Miyaku.Media, with the director's cut ending (kaiju-style!)
-
Robot Wars (1993) (seen in VCR Party) - Crappy straight-to-video scifi with stop motion giant robots.
-
Used Cars (1980) (seen in #SundayFunnies) - Underrated comedy from the team who later made Back to the Future, with Kurt Russell as an ambitious, unscrupulous used car salesman trying to rustle up the cash to buy his way into politics.
TOS - The Corbomite Maneuver
Not an expert but my suspicion: fresh water, or lack thereof.
Australia's so damned flat that most moisture-laden air just flows right over it without dropping any rain.
The few significant hills and mountains that cause the humid air to churn and precipitation to form and fall are in the southeast. Which is thus where the biggest rivers are, and thus where the most people are.
On the north coast, the rivers seem few and far between, and pretty small, too.
Sounds fascinating!
Unfortunately there don't seem to be many options to stream it, none where I am
Weak lungs?
