One More Final Trailer for Baz Luhrmann's Australia

Given it's a rather quiet weekend, I thought it might be fitting to feature Fox's final trailer for Baz Luhrmann's Australia. When you watch this you might finally realize why I feel like this has the potential to be this year's Best Picture. Despite the film is just now being finished, I still think it will have an great run at the box office, or I so I'm hoping. I don't care if it's nearly three hours long, I'm anxious to be immersed in Luhrmann's wonderfully vivid world to see a love story that only he could tell. The story actually focuses on the aboriginal kid as the connection between the two lovers, Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman. Whatever happens with this movie in the end, tourism is Australia is going to blossom.

Australia is both co-written and directed by Australian filmmaker Baz Luhrmann of Moulin Rouge!, Romeo + Juliet, and Strictly Ballroom previously. In addition to Luhrmann, screenwriters Ronald Harwood (The Pianist, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly), Stuart Beattie (Collateral, Pirates of the Caribbean, G.I. Joe), and Richard Flanagan (The Sound of One Hand Clapping) have been involved with elements of the script as well. Fox is debuting Australia in theaters everywhere on November 26th this fall.

This movie looks amazing. I'm a little worried that Fox is the studio though, probably why Baz Luhrmann was holding on to it as long as possible saying he was still editing the movie so they don't chop it up! jk... Romeo and Juliet was awsome!

Alex, you confirm the release date is November 26th, but the poster reads boxing day. Is the poster wrong?

Personally, I think that this is going to end up like Titanic. Think about it: A rich, socialite woman has a relationship with a lower-class he-man, until a disaster happens (in this case, WWII). Plus, they were both released by Fox. IF this thing is destined to be "Titanic", then it will make a whole lot of money, win a whole lot of Oscars, and be so boring and smaltzy that I won't see it.

This movie will be awesome. If it is like Titanic then at least it will have Hugh Jackman and more action.

still looks epic. i have to see it. and i agree, the poster is like the Gone with the Wind one, however, I think I like that one, and not this one.
