thank you, I never use a script for my reactions! jk. yes that's quite impressive especially in front of a large foreign audience, personally I'd poop my pants
Very Aussie humour from a very Aussie guy. Even though I have seen this speech quite a number of times I still laugh. It is very Aussie style humour but that was what the Americans saw in Hoges and what we Aussies love.
@@carolthorson7854 Never did like the show. Maybe what you said is why, but this speech is classic. I'm gonna go find it and watch it a few times. Completely taking the piss out of it.
@@rossbrumby1957my father says “fillums” 😂. It’s so bizarre. We all scream over the top of each other “it’s fiLLLLLLLMMMMs!!!”. He also can’t pronounce “Prado” (his car), and he refers to anyone in administrative positions as “seckatariy”. His old business partner had lots of plastic surgery, mostly facelifts, he’d call them “head jobs” (without trying to be funny… he thought that’s what they’re called!) “God she looks terrible… she’s had far too many head jobs” 😂😂
It was teleprompter: he pronounced the word "gesture" as it is written instead of how it should be (and is, even in Oz) "jest-ure" or "jest-uh," take your pick.
Love this, he has a good poke at Hollywood nonsense, but in a light hearted way, didn't swear, wasn't vulgar and didn't insult anyone. Funny and clever.😊✌❤
Hahaha. 🤣. Yep he’s a Fkn legend. You should watch one of the old Paul Hogan Shows from back in the 70’s/80’s I think it was on. His mate Strop and Delvene Delaney were also in it.
Strop was the business brain behind the whole kit & kaboodle. Also the business brain behind World Series Cricket, working for Kerry Packer to get it all up & running. Packer was loyal to his team. Hoges and his team never left ch9. Players like Ian Chappel, Tony Greig, Bill Lawry, even Richie Benaud, they were promised jobs for life, and the promise was kept.
This is "Hoges" at his comedic best. No script. Just pure genius wit. The Aussie sense of humour can be VERY DRY. It takes Yanks a while to 'get it'... We could almost say: "That's not a 'speech'. THIS IS A SPEECH!!!" 🤣🤣 BTW, I love the 1980s 'Miami Vice' pastel colours... 😁 M 🦘🏏😎
I grew up in the 70's watching his TV show, a lot of it went over my head but I was still wetting myself laughing. Legend. You should react to political satirists Clarke and Dawe, a lot of their stuff is very Australia specific but there's one called "The Use of the English Language in Australia" that you'll get a laugh out of.
Our Aussie treasure, as funny as & as original as you will ever find in comedy, no cue cards just pure off the cuff brilliance, he is old now but will forever be "MIck Dundee"
Paul Hogan (Hoges as we call him here in Australia) is such an Aussie icon. He’s a very funny man who started out as a painter painting the Sydney Harbour Bridge. You need to check out his tv show called The Paul Hogan Show.
Saw some ‘cool actors ‘ in the audience that have played amazing roles, but didn’t quite get it. Or just snobs. He killed this. Was the humour above their heads? Or the boys club?
And if you've never seen Benny Hill, he's very un-PC. But in the same vein but maybe slightly later, a very gay Kenny Everett had a show of the same recognisable genre.....
Happy Arvo Ryan! 🤗👍 Hoges used to say, 'gooday viewers', just a former painter but real, honest comedy! 😁 Second envelope waiting! Show some real emotions folks, the world is watching, and Australians! 😂
@daveofyorkshire301 There was the Dame Edna Experience in the UK (1987-89) and The Dame Edna Treatment (2007). There was also Dame Edna's Hollywood in 1991-93 which was US based & might have been more a series of special, I'm not sure. I think it was one of these that had Robin Williams guesting as a pizza delivery person. Quite interesting to see how their two styles interacted.
I think the hard 'g' on gesture was a gag (because he's talking about the slightest mistake being highlighted) - but the audience seemed to miss the joke and assume it was just accent....
Another fact about Paul Hogan. Paul Hogan asked John Cornell (his manager who also played Strop in "The Paul Hogan Show"), while they were watching the cricket, why cricketers don't get paid more, despite being well kn wn. It prompted Cornell to approach Kerry Packer with the idea of World Series Cricket, which ultimately led the megabucks cricketers are paid today.
5:05 "You're here to sweat. This program is live. There's about one thousand million people watching you. So, you remember - one wrong word, one foolish gesture and your whole career could go down in flames. Hold that thought and have a nice night, you hear❗️' Will Smith should've taken Paul Hogan's advice, before acting like an absolute Hockey 🏒 PUCK at The Oscars. Where is Will Smith now ❔️ In hiding 🤔❔️
if you haven't heard how Paul got into comedy, I recommend it, quite an interesting story, he's talked about it on lots of shows, so I'm sure you would be able to find it
Well I don't say Guessture but I do hear it occasionally. I've no idea what the Guessture vs Jesture statistics are but I nominate 'jesture'. Never knew anything else :)
The Paul Hogan shows from the mid 1970's were hilarious Sargent Donger Leo Wanker Luigi The Unbelievable , and the Winfield commercial with the line Let It Rip Boris and still only 40 cents a packet
We were so proud of Paul for this, well, I should speak for myself. So funny, but looking at some of the people in the audience, all that went over their heads, and probably thinking who the hell is this joker, 😅😅😅
Paul has really only played himself he started out working the the Sydney harbour Bridge as a rigger he then was discovered on a talent show then he was on a current affairs programme before getting his own show called the Paul Hogan Show which Paul & his working partner John Cornell wrote nearly every episode for over 12 seasons then he & John wrote original Crocodile Dundee which John also directed
Paul didn't 'Threaten' if his name wasn't called - its called a 'JOKE'!!! Paul Hogan was the 'Ricky Gervais' of his day. He didn't give a toss if he offended someone - no-one got offended by Paul's sense of humor as it was done without malice. In a time when taking the mickey out of someone was a good laugh.
It's just that super-steady, easy-rolling Aussie attitude. Like the very unflappable and endlessly popular Jack Young, the first man to win consecutive world speedway championships. He was given a huge championship cup for the first win, so what did this keen fisherman from Adelaide use it for? Well, he kept his fishing sinkers in it, of course! 🤣
Ryan: the 'second envelope' is kinda like a running gag ... if you say you don't deserve it (being "too humble"), it can be given to one of the runner-up's. 😅
You really must take a look at the movie he was nominated for writing screenplay . He also starred in Crocodile Dundee. It’s said he worked a joke ,either verbal of visual , into the script every 90secs. I did use a stopwatch and yeah, it worked
I’ve pronounced gesture with a hard G (like Hoges), all my life. It’s how we were taught by family AND school here in Qld Australia. DEFINATELY not only one way of pronouncing the word. Hoges & Aussie - brilliant.
Remember when flying from Australia to the USA you cross the International Date line so you gain a day, coming back to Aus you lose a day. You are not flying for over 24hrs.
When I fly to USA the first leg is about 13-14hrs and then another one or two flights depending on where I am going, so it can be around 24 hours til I get to my destination
5:38 "gesture" pronounced wrong, that was the pun.. that was a foolish "gesture".. Some people NEVER catch/get that joke.. possibly the best one of the whole skit. Some of the best live/skit TV in Oz history was "The Paul Hogan Show"..
At the time that Hoges referred to, the Oscars used to be fully televised, starting with the technical awards, and building up to the top five: Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Picture, several hours later. Everyone was either drunk or yawning by that time. All the earlier minor award winners gave long involved thank you speeches. So by the middle, music cues would start halfway through a brief speech. The final five winners had only a few seconds to say thanks before the ‘get off the stage’ music started.
To be honest, this is the first time I've heard "gestya" instead of gesture. Either Paul Hogan pronounces it wrong or he made a mistake because he was stressed and under presure to deliver the lines without stuffing up, which he nearly did a couple of times. But overall, it was a good speech.
You should check out the best Aussie speech ever, PM Julia Gillard mysoginy speech, it's awesome. Watch opposition leader Tony abbot's expression change from smirking to serious realisation that he's a mysoginist
Before Crocodile Dundee Paul Hogan used to have his own tv show which was so funny . What you see in this speech is what he was like on his tv show . It always seemed like he was just making it up as he went along . I haven’t seen any of the episodes since so it’s probably dated really badly and it certainly was never political correct anyway . That’s probably why they haven’t repeated it . I haven’t looked on CZcams to see if any eps are available because I don’t won’t to spoil the memories of how much we all loved the show at the time here in Australia.
Do yourself a favour and look up some of the old Paul Hogan Show videos. Would get thrown of TV nowadays for being totally unPC but it’s what this stuffy, uptight, don’t offend world needs!
All spoken without a script, no idiot cards. All in his head.
Plus no foul language.
Can't have everything

Or trashing other people by name!
Hogan even greeted the Queen wearing footy socks,work shorts and a checkered shirt with the sleeves cut off
Of course true Aussie Class.
Hoges is as funny as they come. A lot of his content from The Paul Hogan Show would be a bit risqué for today’s princesses, but that man is FUNNY!
Very Aussie humour from a very Aussie guy. Even though I have seen this speech quite a number of times I still laugh. It is very Aussie style humour but that was what the Americans saw in Hoges and what we Aussies love.
@simbob26 I agree and that's why shows ain't as good or funny anymore because of whinging sooks 👍😀 it's un Australian 🤣
I still laugh at his show, despite the outrage from the PC brigade about the way women are depicted, having missed the point completely.
@@carolthorson7854 Never did like the show. Maybe what you said is why, but this speech is classic. I'm gonna go find it and watch it a few times. Completely taking the piss out of it.
Mispronouncing gesture was part of the joke.

I love Kitty Flanagan doing standup talking about how this one guy says “gesture” wrong also
Like Norman Gunston saying fillums instead of films.
Fairdinkim!

@@rossbrumby1957in Ireland that's how it's pronounced by most people.
Paul is a genuine Aussie
And not a single swear word or insult. Paul Hogan a genuinely funny guy andca great bloke
Ive only ever heard one person pronounce the word "gesture" with a hard 'g' and you just heard that one person too!!😂
You should watch Kitty Flanagan’s stand up bit on her reaction to a guy who used a “soft” g.
From a rigger on Sydney harbour bridge to Hollywood stardom and he remained a true blue Aussie ? ( well almost)
He didn’t win an Oscar but he did win a Golden Globe.
No teleprompter he was a one of a kind
It was teleprompter: he pronounced the word "gesture" as it is written instead of how it should be (and is, even in Oz) "jest-ure" or "jest-uh," take your pick.
@@meeeka It was part of the joke, listen to what he says prior to him pronouncing the word gesture in the incorrect way.
For anyone wondering.....Hogan was nominated for writing Crocodile Dundee, he lost to Woody Allen for Hannah and Her Sisters.
It's funny when it's brought up in the Very excellent Mr Dundee. 😂😂
I remember and it was so wrong!!!
Paul is a fantastic, clever comedian and a true blue Aussie 😂
Hoges was a painter on the Sydney Harbor Bridge before he became a comedy legend.
Harbour bridge.
Explains why he was so calm filming the scene with the "jumper"
Before that he was a lifeguard at Granville Swimming Pool working for Parramatta Council
@@Sydneysider1310
SYDNEY HARBOUR BRIDGE
@@c8Lorraine1 of course, but it was the American spelling of harbour I was correcting.
Love this, he has a good poke at Hollywood nonsense, but in a light hearted way, didn't swear, wasn't vulgar and didn't insult anyone. Funny and clever.😊✌❤
Hahaha. 🤣. Yep he’s a Fkn legend. You should watch one of the old Paul Hogan Shows from back in the 70’s/80’s I think it was on. His mate Strop and Delvene Delaney were also in it.
Don't forget Sgt Donger 💪🏼 😂
They may be demonetised 😬
Strop was the business brain behind the whole kit & kaboodle. Also the business brain behind World Series Cricket, working for Kerry Packer to get it all up & running.
Packer was loyal to his team. Hoges and his team never left ch9. Players like Ian Chappel, Tony Greig, Bill Lawry, even Richie Benaud, they were promised jobs for life, and the promise was kept.
OMG, Leo Wanker, priceless!
Better still, watch the original movie, Crocodile Dundee.
The audience gets it Ryan. The 80’s was a COOL era
This is "Hoges" at his comedic best. No script. Just pure genius wit. The Aussie sense of humour can be VERY DRY. It takes Yanks a while to 'get it'...

Mate, Paul Hogan is an Australian icon. Bloody legend, true blue Aussie
Definitely watch the Paul Hogan Show. A natural talent!
Him as a drunk in the Paul hogan show was pretty funny.😂

Dustin Hoffman- no sense of humour. But in fairness I think most of them couldn't understand his accent😅
His humour isn’t obvious enough for many Americans.
Paul Hogan had a Benny Hill-style TV show in the 70s
And if you've never seen Benny Hill, he's very un-PC. But in the same vein but maybe slightly later, a very gay Kenny Everett had a show of the same recognisable genre.....
Another funny Oscars or golden globes speech was from another Aussie actor her name's Rebel Wilson. It would make another great reaction video Ryan 👍
"Guessed ya" was definitely a self-deprecation joke.
He was saying " gesture"
@@maryl8753 Yeah, I know. I typed it phonetically.
