They’re probably Aussie or Kiwi dollars. Not only is our dollar weaker than yours but everything is more expensive over here because our economy is still growing and we have near full employment despite the GFC.

1 AUD = roughly 88 US cents
1 NZD = roughly nothing which is why they invade Australia (if you Americans think Mexicans illegally crossing the border is a problem, try living next door to the Kiwis, some 20% of the NZ population live in Australia)

This is actually a double-fail. The movie was released in 1993, not 1997.

In some english speaking countries Willy, instead of being a nickname for someone named William, is a slang term for a man’s p*n*s. So Willy, even though it was the whale’s name, was censored.
It’s not so much a censorship fail (though I notice they didn’t censor the title of Free Willy 2) as a slang/name fail. Some things just don’t cross the pond well.

Oh, yes, just duck under a rusty fence, and wade through a river merely 1490km wide, and you’re in!

I googled it and discovered that Google employs the digitally ancient convention of using asterisks as wildcards.

Sure, that goes back decades but I haven’t used wildcards in a while so I didn’t expect to see that.

It’s out back behind your mother’s house. The single-side with all the rust on the sides and no roof on top.
