Vale Koko (alias Red Dog 2)
A great actor.

His big hit (Red Dog) is probably unknown as a film outside of Oz but it was a beauty (IMO).

Gotta say I shed a tear in the movie,........I must be getting old and soft..
my own Red dog took a bait a couple of weeks ago....It was touch and go but thankfully she made it.

We had several dog heroes in the USA whilst I was growing up. Rin Tin Tin, Lassie and I was very sad when they started passing away. Until I found out Lassie was a boy dog that is.

And did you know that Timmy, despite the cliché, never actually fell down the well....

Why would you tell me that? Where did you get that info from? Did you make that up just to get my goat? Shame.

Nope. Lassie fell down a well. Timmy fell down a mine.

Sorry the dog's dead, but thought the movie was a contrived pile of poo. Cliched stereo types with humour much more dead than pan. Each to their own, & I know there are plenty who love this movie, which is why it made a lot of money. But none of it was mine (I saw it on telly) & I'm not a fan.

Well if that's what's stopping me enjoying crap movies I might buy another one.
