    Well, hmmm, let's see.

    Elijah Wood has since played some short-arse running around with jewellery he wanted to get rid of.

    Paul Hogan is hopefully dead (no offence Paul, I liked the first Crocodile Dundee)

    Jonathan Banks (some of you may remember him from Wiseguy, that late-80s series with Ken Wahl and Debbie Harry for a while) was last seen by most of us playing a bad guy in the third Crocodile Dundee movie but he's still getting stage work and the odd baddie role so we'll see him again.

    That's the main three. As for the other kids, who cares. I didn't really like it. If I'd gone to the cinema to see it I'd have been out of there faster than lightning. Better than Selkie though.


    Just in case you were talking about the old movie made in the 60s, I believe the guy who played Sandy continued playing the same character in the series and ended up a bad actor, reasonable stuntman, good stage hand and had a small role in the Paul Hogan Flipper. Last time I saw the guy who played Porter was in Airplane II. I spent much of my youth watching Flipper on Saturday mornings. I sort of wish I hadn't now.

    yep it was the old film. you have some knowledge of this stuff. respect.

    this is what Sandy got up to: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0356983/

    I wasted many an hour watching flipper (and skippy)...nothing else on RTE and to far removed from the town to meet up with people - thats what bog life does to you :-)
