I notice you only saw the trailer - I hope you aren't the type of person who opens their mouth to critisise something without actually seeing the movie. What the hell would you have called it? "The Radiotelescope" or "How the world saw the Apollo 11 moon landing" or "Four guys and a Dish" or some other catchy phrase... no wonder you posted this anonymously

Hmm,
I just wonder exactly how much of the 1970's you actually saw. Sure we were dorky (if you look at it from the rose coloured glasses 30 years hence) but so was the rest of the world - I tell you one thing though the end of the 1970's was also the end (with a few notable exceptions) of good music.

The Dish is a great movie but it is no more or no less Australian than a lot of other Ozzy movies. As a proud (well most of the time) Ozzy I like to think that even Paul Hogan is an important part of our culture. Sure in the Croc movies he portrays an Australian that many in this country tend to cringe at, but these tend to be boring nerds with no imagination or romance. I'd hate to think we have become a nation without imagination. I have spent much time in the US and I'm sure most Americans understand that characters like croc and mad max are larger than life, just like their local heros, and that not everyone in Oz carries a 12" knife.
