Shopper stunned by Woolworths' bizarre solution to running... What does tomorrow's full moon mean for YOUR star sign?... Nostalgic Aussies lose it over pictures of the very first Mr... Foodie stumbles upon a 'secret, one-hatted Asian smokehouse'...

Warne's son Jackson, 22, proved yet again that he was prepared to step up for his family in his father's absence as he led his sisters Brooke, 24, and Summer, 20, to a waiting chauffeur and liaised with security at St Kilda Football Club where Warne's funeral was held.

He said the government focused in 2020 and 2021 on lowering electricity prices by eight per cent, investing $10 billion a year in childcare, and providing $30 billion of tax relief for low and middle income earners. 

He stated: 'Affluent people can give their kids everything they want, but they're not usually going to get what they need. Loving a child is a lot harder if you really give a d***. "No" takes a lot more energy. It's a lot easier to say "yes."'

Shane Warne's children Brooke, Summer and Jackson (pictured with their dad in London) have shared heartwarming tributes to the cricketing legend and put on a united front in the weeks since his tragic death

From Christmas, we head to Halloween: Errementari, translated from Spanish as The Blacksmith, is a horror fantasy about a deal with the devil. In northern Spain during the 1830s, a blacksmith holds a demon in captivity, until an orphan girl unwittingly releases it. War, murder, kidnapping, suicide and more await you in the furnace of this hellish horror with surprising lashings of dark comedy.

The Melbourne park, which is normally open and available for kids to play on when there aren't games scheduled, has become a fortress surrounded by security in blue uniforms and patrolling police officers.

Co-produced by Sam Raimi, this dark fantasy is inscribed with top horror credentials. Still aimed at younger viewers, Nightbooks leafs through a mystery about a young boy who must figure out how to escape a magical apartment owned by Krysten Ritter's witch Natacha. A tomb of fun.

'And that is already seeing money roll out into people's pockets, particularly for young people and for young women. If you're a woman who's 25 and under you've seen more than $2,000 of tax relief on average.' 

If you're freaked out by Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and confused by why we need a prequel flick starring Timothée Chalamet, then block out all the noise with the sweet musical numbers of the perfect original classic.

This dark fantasy drama comes from Spanish director J.A. Bayona, who's since branched off into huge franchise chapters, including Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and the first two episodes of Prime Video's upcoming Lord of the Rings series. But perhaps his best work is centered on coming-of-age tales; A Monster Calls follows a troubled young boy who encounters a tree that promises to tell him three stories, as long as Connor tells him one in return. With roots in darker themes, one of them being death, A Monster Calls is a smart, moving fantasy tale.

Based on the children's book of the same name, Where the Wild Things Are will appeal to adults as much as younger viewers. A lonely boy escapes problems at home, including his parents divorce, by sailing off across a small pond that leads to an ocean. At the end, an island where he eventually rules over the fluffy and monstrous inhabitants. Exploring the facets of growing up, this fantasy adventure is a unique, occasionally melancholic picture book come to life.

More than a decade after her previous film, Bright Star, extraordinary filmmaker Jane Campion has unfolded the director's chair again to oversee The Power of the Dog (she wrote the script too). It centers on Phil Burbank, a rancher who uses the power of toxic masculinity to have his way, mocking his brother for falling in love. What happens when Phil starts to feel the same ridiculous sensitivities? The Power of the Dog is a mesmeric exercise in the subtle shifts of emotion and power in relationships, emotion that doesn't feel subtle at all within each character. Benedict Cumberbatch, Jesse Plemons and Kirsten Dunst help bring Campion's masterful vision to life. Oscar buzz is in the air.

Good luck getting NeverEnding Story's theme song out of your brain. The '80s fantasy classic has cropped up of late in references from The Simpsons, Stranger Things and even provided the name of a metal/hardcore punk band. All from a story that follows a young boy who uses the power of imagination to save the land of Fantasia.

Rebecca Hall makes her directorial debut in magnificent fashion with her adaptation of Nella Larsen's 1929 novel Passing. It tells the story of two light-skinned Black women, one of whom chooses to "pass" as white. Tessa Thompson and Ruth Negga embody the duality at the heart of this delicate story, shot in black and white. Gracefully handled, Passing is a tender portrait revealing powerful psychological depths.
