I've heard AS&T is still tied up with the US in a big way and don't have that much choice in the domestic content quota so it's unlikely more aussie pics will be published than what it does now.

That reminds me of an argument with the domestic movie industry in France 20yrs ago. Some people started winging (including French studios) that for 1 French movie in the cinemas they had 20 or so US movies showing. So they tried to restrict the amount of US shows in relation to the the domestic productions... Until the "next starwars" came around attached with 10 B-series flicks. Take it or leave it was the deal. Went all back to business real quick wanting the good stuff and putting up with the not soo good.

AS&T had some great local contributions but also a lot of wonderful O/S material. I guess it's all about volume. Might change over time.
