I’m not so sure about Tourism Australia’s latest idea to tie in Baz Luhrmann’s film Australia with the new slogan “See the Movie, See the Country” (in which case you won’t need to actually visit it after all). Surely it would be more effective if they just used the universal appeal of Hugh Jackman and added a few words like so:
Oh yeah, I can totally see how this went down. I mean, you know how it is, you’re sitting around, doing three thousand sit-ups a day and living on a diet of injectable botulism and nail clippings and your husband comes up –fresh from his weekly wax-n-polish– and says “Hey Nicks, you know what I’d really fancy? You know how you’re always complaining about those Rhythm Nation costumes I’m wearing around the house? Well what if we did a sort of low key version and wore them together?! To a football game! AND WE’D BE TOTALLY INVISIBLE! Wouldn’t that be great? Nicks? Nicks?? Blink your eyes if you’re trying to frown.”
