Watch: The Greatest Surf Movie In The Universe // Trailer

A stop-motion surf movie with dolls?

No idea how this one is gonna play out, there ain't much precedent for plastic doll surf films, however the script was written by Vaughan Blakey who's got a keen sense of the absurd.

Dates can be found here.

From the presser:

"10 years from now a virus more deadly and more contagious than anything we’ve ever seen decimates all the world’s living creatures. Facing a total extinction event, a brilliant geneticist named Dr Jonathan Figg discovers a miracle vaccine that is fast tracked into production, saving the final remnants of humanity. Unfortunately, there’s one terrible side effect-the vaccine completely erases all memory of surfing from the human mind.

"It’s a strange and abstract time as the World’s Best Surfers stumble blindly into new lives and careers oblivious to the incredible talents they once possessed.

"Sensing the total extinction of wave riding, the surf God, Huey, makes a last-ditch effort to save surfing. He scours the globe until, high on a mountain top in Tibet, he finds the one man capable of bringing surfing back from the dead.

"With his memory reinstated by Huey, it’s now up to the three Time World Champion Surfer Mick Fanning to recruit a team of the world’s best surfers (including Mason Ho, Griffin Colapinto, Jack Freestone, Craig Anderson and Matt Wilkinson) and restore the glory of surfing back into public consciousness. There’s only one way to do it and that’s to make… THE GREATEST SURF MOVIE IN THE UNIVERSE."

Looks like it's going to be a cracker.
No SA dates.

Back to the future… it’s been ages for real surf culture to be on the screen. I worry for the kids growing up watching the wassel

kaybeegee Tuesday, 21 Mar 2023 at 03:25 pm new

This looks like a complete waste of my time. Cant wait!

memlasurf Tuesday, 21 Mar 2023 at 03:36 pm new

Yeah shades of Captain Good Vibes and Team America should be fun "Fuck Yeah". I wonder if the Yanks will get the humour.

Sadly I can't wait.

Fresh, tasty m laughing already - anyone else have trouble with the Book Tickets button - took me nowhere… who knows - maybe that’s part of the humour too

NDC Tuesday, 21 Mar 2023 at 11:00 pm new

Worked it out

After clicking Book Tickets button
Then choose state
Then, In NSW for example click the box with Hayden Orpheum cinema on it (doesn’t look click-able but is) and it’s straightforward from there

No joy trying to book Gold Coast tickets on the HOTA site....doesn't appear to be any link there??

stanfrance Wednesday, 22 Mar 2023 at 11:03 am new

Could it be.......?? Maybe

What a breath of fresh air! It's about time Surfers stopped taking themselves so fucking seriously. I was told by a wise man to take what you do seriously, but never yourself!
I just wonder how this movie goes down in an age of cancel-culture though? I can imagine some people being upset and shooting off at the mouth about how "inappropriate" it is. A message to those people....Fuck-off and watch something else if you don't like it!

Should be a hoot ol Vaughn has got a weird wacky sense of humor that i can relate to....

Island Bay Thursday, 23 Mar 2023 at 07:30 am new

For some reason I was ready to be disappointed, but I almost spewed my morning coffee all over the screen. Laughed and laughed.

AndyM Thursday, 23 Mar 2023 at 10:13 am new

Yeah I dunno.
Parts of Free Scrubber were absolutely hilarious, quirky and offbeat.
But I'm really not sure if a surf vid whose humour seems based on dick jokes is really going to hit the mark for anyone over their early twenties.
Although I could easily be wrong.

burleigh Thursday, 23 Mar 2023 at 11:13 am new

never be afraid of a dick joke Andy.

bbbird Thursday, 23 Mar 2023 at 10:08 pm new

Hey Burls, did you hear about the man with five penises?
His pants fit him like a glove.

I was walking down the street the other day, minding my own business, and I looked down and there was a steering wheel attached to the front of my pants.
A bloody steering wheel!
It was driving me nuts.

What do you call a herd of cows masturbating? Beef stroganoff.

Most dick jokes are the same.

They just vary in length.

Confucius say….”Man with his hand in another man’s pocket…not feeling himself today”.

Rodney Rude

“Look at this bloke just walked in, two hands in his pockets, must have two cocks!”

(Must be said in Rodney Rude voice for full effect)

A man walks into a library and says to the librarian, “Do you have that book for men with small penises?”
The librarian looks on her computer and says, “I don’t know if it’s in yet.”
The man says, “Yeah, that’s the one!”

Johknee Thursday, 23 Mar 2023 at 05:46 pm new

The jokes from you blokes are funnier than the movie!!
