#SPLICE CARTOON SERIES#

“Stranger Things 4” in particular has taken clear inspiration and paid homage to the iconic franchise this season, even boasting an appropriately unnerving cameo from Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger), himself.

From inexcusable atrocities to legitimate cinematic landmarks, the Elm Street movies have certainly had their ups and downs, but there is absolutely no denying their pop cultural impact.

Centered around the irresistible premise of a vengeful boogeyman who haunts kids in their dreams, the series quickly became a juggernaut of ‘80s horror, producing some of the decade’s finest efforts…and, unfortunately, some of its worst. Making shockwaves in the industry as what would become later known, essentially, as the innovator of supernatural slashers, with a killer concept and some gruesome effects, the overnight sensation would go on to spawn one of the most well-beloved, wildly unique franchises in all of film. Shrine visitor Claire Andrews, whose late brother did not feel he could come out as gay when he served in the air force, said the lights would have been a “beautiful symbol of the acceptance of the LGBTQI community”.In 1984, the late Wes Craven’s low-budget brainchild “A Nightmare on Elm Street” was released into the world, and the horror genre has never been the same since. The RSL’s Victorian president Robert Webster said he was pleased the display was cancelled, arguing “we’re a very conservative organisation”. It comes after several threats made by members of the public successfully pressured organisers to abandon plans to light the Shrine in LGBTQ colours. On Sunday, the Shrine hosted a wreath-laying ceremony and Last Post for LGBTQ veterans and advocates for the first time, as the rainbow flag flew in the forecourt ( The Age).Ībout a dozen protesters opposing the LGBTQ service jostled with police when officers attempted to move them on, but no arrests were made.

Also at the Garma Festival, Minister for Indigenous Australians Linda Burney indicated a truth-telling and treaty process is being planned alongside the Voice proposal ( ABC).Ī wreath-laying ceremony for LGBTQ veterans who died in combat has been marred by protests, as the RSL backs a decision not to light Melbourne’s Shrine of Remembrance in rainbow colours.

The Greens, whose support may be required if the Coalition opposes a referendum, say they will insist on concrete steps towards a treaty with Indigenous nations ( The Age).

Under the draft proposal, the Voice’s role would be as adviser and advocate to Parliament, but its advice could be rejected - defusing criticism it would act as a “third chamber”.

“What I am not going to do to go down the cul-de-sac of getting into every detail because that is not a recipe for success,” he said.

Albanese said he was trying to avoid the situation of the failed 1999 republic referendum where people may have disagreed with one element within the proposed model and were then urged to vote no.

In a subsequent interview on Sunday, Albanese explained the detail of how the Voice would be left to federal parliamentarians to debate after a successful referendum ( The Conversation).At the Garma Festival in Arnhem Land on Saturday, Albanese proposed that Australians be asked simply if they “support an alteration to the constitution that establishes an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice” ( The Saturday Paper).Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has revealed his strategy on an Indigenous Voice to Parliament, proposing a broad concept rather than a detailed model in order to avoid the fate of the failed 1999 republic referendum.
