DVD Collectors Online

Since I just called the owner cheap in another thread I thought I should redeem myself before I get too much 

To all the new members you will see in the banner of the forum pages affiliate links Karsten has set up. If you enjoy this site I would encourage you to use the links. If you are unfamiliar with how it works there is nothing different for you. Just go to Amazon or DD using the link above and if you purchase something while there Karsten will get a couple of pennies from it.

If enough of us use it maybe he WILL be able to give us some cookine or even a pie every now and then   

BTW Karsten, any chance that you had one for amazon france also? I plan to get many adult films from them this year, so if you want a little bonus I will be please to use it

Sorry. Except for "merde" I don't speak a word of French. I don't even know where their affiliate page is...

And me who was certain that all the Europeans were talking english, french, german, russian, dutch, italian, greek, spanish,... 

The affiliate page is there in french. I don't see a way to have it in english on their website, but google or any translator could help you.

No, you just think we all speak English, because we clearly must

Yes, you must instead of theose foreign heathen tongues.

Wow, from now on I promise I will only speak English, if I brought out too much Australian it could cause confusion.

That was fantastic! The seven bogans, the poisned Dimmy! Great stuff.

I need subtitles to understand what the heck he is saying!

The australian accent is the english one that is the tougher to understand for me without subtitles, just before the Texas accent and the New York accent (not really anymore, since I kind of use to hear it in most of the film I watch).

There are actually two main accents current in Australia (the third has pretty much died out... the old radio announcer accent that was heavily influenced by our British roots). Critter probably doesn't sound too much different from me (there would be differences), but someone from Sydney will speak with a noticable difference from me (to my ears, sounds like a cross between someone from here in Adelaide, and a New Zealander). I often struggle to hear "American" accents in Hollywood films (obviously the regional ones I spot a mile off).

You would probably hear an accent if I spoke, but neither Critter or I are likely to speak anything like Poida (unless we're taking the piss - aka having a bit of fun with you).

I was going to post a clip of Jonah from Summer Heights High, but the language wasn't appropriate for this forum.

Just post it Wombat, Chris Lilly deserves to be seen by all  .
And yes Australians don't actually sound like they do in that video, that was an Australian taking the piss out of bogan Australians who let's face it, almost have a language of their own haha. I find that I never really notice the difference between Aus accents Wombat, we all just sound Australian to me.

QuoteI often struggle to hear "American" accents in Hollywood films (obviously the regional ones I spot a mile off).

Also I am exactly the same here. Growing up watching American TV and films constantly I now can't even spot American accents, unless they are Southern ones. If I am talking to an American person face to face it stands out a mile, but I am just so used to it in TV and film that it is the norm to hear Americans. I heard Australian accents in a film trailer the other day and I did a double take, I could hardly believe how strange we actually sound in a film haha. I wasn't even sure if it was Aus accents at the start.

I've seen a bit of Chris Lilly's work and I wasn't very keen, the adverts made it look really good.
I suppose not liking Office or Arrested Development type shows doesn't help.
Kevin "Bloody" Wilson on the other hand I do find pretty damned funny.

The Oz accent isn't too much of a hassle for us Brits, daily exposure to Neighbours and Home & Away and other stuff like the Flying Doctors helped in that aspect.
