I wasn't that impressed. Although the "raining men" scene was worth a laugh.

I question the amount of copyright violation in the thing too.

If you think that violated copyrights....

Look at www.warcraftmovies.com :P

And who knows, maybe all the songs were Radio edits ;)

I didn't really understand most of it, but I did like the continuing Finding Nemo reference and the Monty Python sketch. And a hearty "heh" to the raining men :P

So you're saying the end of the clip where every one gets blown to kingdom come wasn't that great either.

mate that was so funny. :lol:
even the cinematics were good, and i'm keen to get this battlefield 2 game now, it looks beautiful.

btw:
They're not saying MINE, they are saying MATE.
Maybe it takes an aussie to hear it and understand the joke, in Finding Nemo the gulls are saying MATE.
it's very much like "dude" or "man". you say it too much in conversation and it becomes either funny or annoying.

imagine Finging Nemo was set in california, and all the gulls were saying DUDE DUDE DUDE! DUDE? DUDE DUDE!. same funny.

The Vodnik flying across the sky can be done on servers were friendly fire is off. 4 people get in the vehicle and place c4 charges on it and blow them in succession. It's pretty cool......

Okay, well the closed captioning on the movie says "mine"

And the opening scene of The Lion King has that music playing. Trust me, my 3 year old watches that movie at least once a week.

They definitely and clearly understandably say "mine", and that should be clear from the context, too. ;)

it says "MINE" in the Finding Nemo subtitles? crazy!

to me, phonetically it sounds like "MAIY MAIY MAIY MAIY MAIY MAIY", which is how we say MATE, it's like a silent "T", and we really stress our "A"s (i put an "I" after it to show the unusual extended length of the "A" that comes from the australian accent).

i am superduper confident that it's saying MATE - since i thought it was funny for the very reason that they were saying MATE - it's like they were a bunch of bogans, drongos, gromits - the joke was instantly accessable to me as a australian. perhaps the subtitling is to make it more accessable to non australian audiences - without redubbing it. it's not unheard of to re-dub overly-australian movies to make them more accessable to an international audience. yet Finding Nemo was a Disney movie, can't get much more american. :?



i'll have to dig up the Power of One soundtrack again, i could've sworn it was the same song (i can continue to sing it in my head, i can hear the africana lyrics of the verse playing in my head (not the intro), i don't remember those lyrics being in the lion king).

the context of Finding Nemo? the sound is taken from Finding Nemo, and in that context it makes perfect sense since ppl would commonly be saying MATE nonstop like that if they were asking/begging for something, trying to get your attention or sympathy.

I was only talking of that BF2 movie, where the guys definitely say "mine". Ofc it is a reference to the seagulls in Finding Nemo.

But as I am thinking about it: The seagulls say "Mine?!" too. That's because they claim everything edible to be intended for them. I remember the scene where that female fish sticks the crab that doesn't want to talk out of the water in front of some seagulls, and they start to say "Mine?! Mine?! Mine?!" heh.

:lol: it seems we are not the only ones to disagree on this matter.

i just did a quick google search, found nothing.
then narrowed it to australian only websites and found exactly what i was expecting.

it seems that slightly most aussies think it's saying "MATE". while all non-aussies who don't understand how the word "MATE" is used in australian language just assume it says "MINE".

i for example never even considered it said "MINE" until i saw this thread.

roid,

just think about the seagulls and when they say ... ummm ... what they say. As I wrote, they start whenever they see something edible, and they want to have it. Hence "Mine?! Mine?! Mine?!" What sense would make "Mate" (in the Australian usage) here?

When I was at the beach a year or two ago, someone leading a nature tour of the surrounding wetlands said that "Mine!" perfectly describes how a seagull's mind works, a fact that anyone who's ever had a sandwich yanked out of their hand by one of the little bastards can attest to. :P "Mate" wouldn't make any sense in the context of the movie; whenever the seagulls use the line, they're all looking at a potential new food source and trying to get at it before the others. I can understand why Aussies might be slightly confused owing to their pronunciation of "Mate," but it really wouldn't make much sense at all if it were intended that way.

I am 100% sure they are saying "Mine" as that is the title of the vid as well it is the noun decribing the device that blows them all up.

...and they were all helipad camping at the beginning, waiting for a helicopter to spawn, "mine, mine, mine."

one of first pelican scenes especially.
as someone from one of those links i gave said:
i think its a piss take on the fact we say mate a hell of a lot... i gathered that they were saying mate to try and get the pelicans attention.
the gulls were trying to "scab" the pelican's meal. a polite yet annoyingly persistant form of begging used by brazen aussie kids who want something you have ;).

then later we see that it's actually the only thing that the gulls can say - and it's even funnier :lol: in the "i think its a piss take on the fact we say mate a hell of a lot" sense.
