WatchThe trailer for the new Twilight film, “New Moon”. I still can’t beleive that they are releasing this movie in November 2009, I can’t imagine the stress director Chris Weitz (American Pie, The Golden Compass) is under.

WatchOnce again my love of British director Edgar Wright (Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz) is reawakened, like with every video diary from the set of his new Toronto-based film.
I’m also beginning to watch Battlestar Galactica, part one of which is pretty heavy on the Vancouver scenery and SFU usage. I like it. Once again we see that the only place Canada is underrepresented is Canadian...
WatchAyy; AGAIN I let my website here look like a placeholder spam site. Apologies.
