West Australian filmmaker Stuart Bender has a reputati...

I absolutely loved the first Cars movie and when they greenlit the second one I was a tad hesitant as sometimes sequels can go a bit far and turn out to be a really bad movie! But lets hope that this doesnt happen with CARS 2. The second time around it looks like Lightning McQueen is jetsetting across the globe! Star racecar Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson) and the incomparable tow truck M...
Sadly the news of a “sassy” new Buffy the Vampire Slayer remake was not simply a cruel hoax. They are still going ahead with it. Whit Anderson, The writer, had us fooled for a while by the fact there had been nothing happening toward it recently, he blamed Hollywood and now has assured us that things are going well. There have been a few rolled eyes and I’m sure a few encouraging...
