I don't know...

Maybe Battle of the River Neretva if we were still in Yugoslavia but now...

Gallipoli.

Which reflects badly on Australia, since our finest moment consisted entirely of Australian soldiers getting themselves shot for no good reason.

Oh, so our overloads are fascist computers who fight with highly contagious kung fu, and our only hope is a bum hacker who's a big fan of some decrepit loon that tried blow up a building this one time and a street-smart cop from the streets of NY? This time, it's personal.

Snakes on a plane is a pretty good representation of the USA

i mean, we're all bad asses right?

either that or 300, because everyone in the states is extremely ripped and kicks the shit out of anyone who tries to intimidate us. (maybe just the second part, and by "kick the shit out of" i mean bomb the shit out of)

Sorry to tell you, but Spartans arn't Americans mate.

I guess for the Brits, we look pretty cool in The Great Escape/The Battle of Britain, pretty much any war film made between c.1950-c.1970.

If I was a Yank, it would be Dead Poets Society.

Thats bloody ridiculous. What were they think..no, of course, they weren't thinking, they were just trying to shut the kids up, and make them learn the rules.
Idiots.

The Roger Moore Bond* film where the parachute opens into the Union Jack always makes me feel like shouting out "I LOVE THE QUEEN".
