From riding kangaroos to school to tossing shrimps on the barbie, we Aussies are subject to our fair share of cultural stereotypes. Sure, some have a smidgen of truth – like our obsession with good coffee – but many are just plain wrong. I've lived in Australia for 25 years and must confess: I can’t stand Vegemite, I’m not a sandy-haired surfer (though I wish I were), and I’ve never been bitten by a deadly snake. While I can’t speak for every Aussie, I can certainly tell you about the stereotypes Aussies love to hate (and hate to love).

I’m Australian and can confirm these are the Aussie stereotypes that make us cringe

It’s hard to argue that Australia’s east coast – with its award-winning beaches and world-famous landmarks – is a "hidden gem" when it comes to tourism. In fact, regional NSW currently stands as Australia’s most popular domestic destination, attracting 66 million domestic visitors in the year leading up to March 2024, and a further 694,400 international visitors from around the world. And although places like Byron Bay are household names even outside of Australia, there are so many towns and cities across the state that attract far less hype, but are very much worthy of a spot on any travel bucket list. One prime example is Newcastle – the coastal city two hours' north of Sydney has just been listed among the top ten most underrated travel destinations in the world.

Step aside, Bad Boys, Disney is here to save the day. After a ho-hum May, the box office roared to life last weekend with the monstrous debut of Inside Out 2, which grossed $154 million dollars in just three days. That’s a lot of money, especially when compared to Pixar’s most recent outings, Lightyear, Elemental, and the Disney+ exclusives Soul, Luca, and Turning Red.

3 underrated Netflix movies you should watch this weekend (June 21-23)

When a movie ends, it is essential that it close on a high note. Or at least, a note that corresponds with the film’s story, themes, and characters. There are some films, such as Rogue One or The Lone Ranger, that have middling beginnings or bad story beats but can be redeemed thanks to a great climax or ending moment. There are some films that just plain stink all the way through. And then there are those who showcase promising potential but are let down thanks to disappointing endings.

Top 10 Netflix Movies You Must See in 2024

When you think of movies on Hulu, it’s easy to get swept up in the big franchise flicks. After all, how often are films like The Batman going to cross over from Warner Bros. to a Disney-owned platform? And compared to the sparse selection of films on Disney+, Hulu has a refreshingly large and diverse lineup of flicks to choose from. But if you can watch only one Hulu movie in June, then the film you should stream is Once.

Western horror movies are among the most underrated in the industry, but their potential cannot be denied. The sub-genre is a rare combination of a genre with dwindling popularity (Western) and the widely loved horror variety of movies, making it a classically entertaining mix. With no end in sight, many Western horror movies have come out over the years. The popularity of this unlikely fusion grew exponentially in the 1950s with entries such as The Beast of Hollow Mountain, Teenage Monster, Curse of the Undead, and The Living Coffin.

Monster movies have been around for a long time, ever since 1915's The Golem, and don't seem to be going anywhere with the massive popularity of Universals MonsterVerse. Monster movies can deliver some of the best action and most intense and intimidating scenes in movie history or represent a staple in the horror genre. The monster genre is surprisingly flexible as movies such as Alien and Gremlins are part of the same genre.

This week’s release of the trilogy-wrapping MaXXXine, a Ti West horror flick that sends Mia Goth’s wannabe starlet to a Brian De Palma-esque ’80s Hollywood, has got us thinking about the art of the trilogy. What makes a great trio of films? In truth, they come in all shapes and sizes from the three act structure of The Lord of the Rings, the original Star Wars movies and Hiroshi Inagaki’s masterful The Samurai Trilogy.
