Didn't she like say she got tricked into doing that scene before? Why would she agree to do it again? It's kinda weird. Melissa Reed

She's griping about having to redo the scene again, probably because she wants to stay in the spotlight or she's strapped for cash. Ashley Haynes

Perhaps it was a sign when they lost some longtime staff members and then poof! They were gone in a flash. David Bennett
And people reckon it was a last-minute decision to shut down. Bet they had known for weeks. The tax office would probably be one of the creditors too, they're not messing about. They'll close you down in a flash.
Staff had no clue it was time to wrap things up then and there. Bridie Henry
Most people who decide to close suddenly have known weeks before. They just want people to feel sorry for them. But it's the workers who will really get hurt, not just by losing their jobs but maybe not getting paid properly.
Are you the boss or connected to the cinema in any way? If not, you should probably just zip it and not share your thoughts. Gerald White
And they were still hawking gift cards just before that week. 🤨
Failing to pay staff is unethical, regardless of a business's financial struggles. Workers deserve to be compensated for their work. Albert Perez
Maybe they just had too much on their plate and had to shut it down. Like I said, it was a spontaneous decision.
In the grand scheme of things, 250,000 is just a drop in the bucket! Adam Hamilton

One pic lets haters of EVs flex to their crew that they ain't about that electric car life.
If everyone purchased an EV tomorrow, the power grid would not be able to handle the demand.
Don't take The Daily Fail too seriously - it's more like a cheesy tabloid than a real newspaper! They love stirring up drama and trying to make you mad with their wacky stories. Just remember to take everything they say with a grain of salt and don't let their nonsense fool you!
I'll never get why Republicans keep giving money to the Saudis and making them richer.

I was having a think about it, mate, if they chucked in a fireproof racing suit, a fire extinguisher, and a bloody long extension lead...
None of the green energies are really green, and battery tech still has a ways to go before it's truly reliable. It's mostly just the big-wigs making bank off of taxpayer handouts. And don't get me started on those so-called incentives for electric cars - they'll probably disappear in no time. But o... View More
Once I can hit 800 clicks on a single charge, I'll have a squiz at it. Rachel Higgins
This story is like a little EV giving a boost to another EV, revving it up so it can make it to the closest charge station. It's just like when you jumpstart a car or fill up with gas to make it to the next pump. Scott Harrison
While I'm not hopin' aboard the EV bandwagon, it seems like the media's definitely got a bit of an anti-EV bias goin' on.
Who would even say they're a hot mess all at once? Who even came up with this garbage? 👎👎👎
I can't believe how many people are freaking out over something they don't even have to buy. No one's making you get an EV. Just so you know, I don't have one either - I roll with a 10-year-old diesel 4x4 and a regular petrol sedan. Kimberly Baker
The Government's bloody huge stuff up mate! Kate Schultz
I guess those folks who are all about waiting in lines for the new iPad are the main ones interested in this stuff, but now they're starting to realize electric vehicles aren't as exciting as they once thought. Victor Gonzales
Anyone who believes EVs are a good idea beyond the city limits is trippin'.
Why not just stick an altinator on each wheel to keep the car juiced up and skip the hassle of lugging around an extension cord in the trunk? Make 'em recharge on their own! Mackenzie Clark

These two, just like Chris Bowen, are getting that corrupt cash from the ev car industry. Why ain't these fools driving to work and copping one for themselves? Steve Young
This is just so sad that the Regent has closed.
An article from The Courier or ABC mentioned that due to special dispensation from Ballarat City Council, we are 266 car parks short according to approved planning.
Only at Cinema 1 - the home of big blockbusters!
I have fond memories of the Regent since the late 70's and despite living two hours away, my family still goes at least twice a year to their Gold class. It's so sad that it's no longer the same.
If that place stays poppin', best believe I'll be there, cash in hand. Andrew Bulluss
Hoping for the best! I know the hood will support the movie theater to keep it running! Harold Reed
Let's remember to show some love to our favorite spots! It's time to give our local businesses the support they deserve.
It's time for the local mob to come together and get behind this business! I reckon it'd be bonza to take me future ankle-biters there someday, just like me oldies did with me. Adrian Gordon
The Council should be less focused on money and adjust parking times to support local businesses and moviegoers.
Did this business really keep selling those movie tickets you could use whenever until they shut down? Just curious, not accusing or anything.
If they had just given the regent and the public a heads up a month in advance (so everyone could go one more time) before closing shop, they would have had a record-breaking turnout. Imagine if they kept showing all those classic hits!
120 new parks under the ugly barn but what about the other 700+ that were promised. When NO PHOTO
Let's forget about that for now, let's focus on what we've accomplished... I'm tired of the council and politicians dodging the question 🙄 just give a straight answer 🙄 Ann Bell
They're flipping the Regent Cinemas into a multi-floor parking garage with a fancy McDonald's drive-thru on the highest level!
People been hoofin' it to bus stops for ages, if you want a ride right to your door, get a taxi or Uber. Some folks think they deserve everything handed to them on a silver platter. Gaylene Thomas
The state government doesn't own the building? It's owned by a private individual. This article doesn't add up, mate. Dianne Smith
Council giving out special permissions for less parking spaces in the CBD is not making it any easier to find a spot. In the past few years, council has approved multiple planning applications that would result in hundreds of less parking spaces. One of these permits, which is currently being disput... View More
There's plenty of car parking in Ballarat, but for some reason people insist on finding a spot right in front of where they're going instead of just parking a bit further away and walking. It's so frustrating to see cars circling the block passing up empty spots. I lived in Ballarat for 8 years and ... View More
Let's just bulldoze the regent. It's not like anyone's gonna use it.
I saw Gov Hub workers traipsing back to their cars at Aldi and the railway station today. Why not let them park underground like VIPs?
You gotta be close to the theater! Carol Nelson
Yo, let's get them trams back on Sturt Street! From Lucas all the way down to the mall. Adrian Gordon
Dan Andrews talking about adding 3k new beds, is this part of the deal?
That's the same old thinking that had the government tearing down theaters back in the day. SMH. Eric Young
Why are we dishing out more cash for parking? We should be focusing on improving public transportation instead.
The Regent Theatre could've made it if there was more parking in the CBD sooner.
Why does it gotta wait until 2025 to open up these car parks under that unused building? A lot of folks are working from home anyways. Are they just taking their sweet time to set up the payment stations? It's gonna be too late for Regent Cinemas by then!
That's a crazy thing to say. I'm sure people will be all over it, thinking about the money, and with the heritage regulations, no way bulldozers are touching it! 😂
It's a must-have! I'm totally neutral on the design. Kelsey Cox
Well, there goes that whole heritage vista! Emma White
It's pretty weird that the government says they'll respect the building's heritage, but the designs don't really match that. Emma White
I would've expected them to come up with something cooler than this. I'm a hard pass. I know we need easier access for folks like me lugging around all this stuff between platforms. Like, why not have a contest for a more thoughtful design and then get peeps to pitch in some cash for the extra cost?
Is there no way, with all the cool tech these days, to chuck up a new building bit that fits in with the rest of the joint? It just needs to work and be easy, why not craft it with some fancy steel that matches the vibe of the station? I reckon it wouldn't break the bank and we'd all be stoked.
But they gonna be keeping that old school vibe? Christopher Phillips
Heritage only counts if there is no government involvement, consider that government hub.
As someone who struggles to get around, I'm all for waiting for a design that keeps the station's history intact!
Bloody oath, it's great to see accessibility finally triumph over those whacko Ballarat Heritage nuffies.
What the hell. These roads are in the bloody bush. Stupid
Why not repair the roads instead of forcing us to drive at a slower speed?
How about we slow it down to 80 kilometers per hour and 60 kilometers per hour on Creswick Newstead Road in Campbelltown 3364? It's getting pretty risky out there, mate. The road is turning into a racetrack, especially when you're heading downhill towards the north. The Ballarat Courier should come ... View More
The proof is that single lane roads should be kept at 80km/hr or lower. When you factor in nighttime animals, rain, ice, and fog, it's probably safest to go 60 or under. Some folks complain about being babied by the government, but they probably haven't experienced the devastating effects of acciden... View More
Our tax dollars should be used to fix the roads, not waste on useless speed limit signs. - Bloody ridiculous
Slowing down roads like Bells road will just make everyone cranky and could lead to more oopsies. Let’s all just chill and drive at a pace that matches our surroundings and skills, cool?
I hope they were smart enough to not just listen to a couple of complainers 🤣🤣🤣.
You got it! Next up is the roadworks, so we gotta keep it to the speed limit, y'all. Kimberly Thomas
The new safety kit will help slow everyone down and prevent damage from potholes. The Western "freeway" is full of them. Emma Ferrara
So like, in 2022 this crazy thing went down and they straight up wouldn't even give me the time of day. I come in complaining of leg pain and feeling like I can't breathe, and they just tell me to go home and take some basic meds because they're too busy dealing with all these "sick" people. Turns o...

Why the gov shutting down country hospitals and sending mad cash to Ukraine? Courier Mail needs to get on that...
I was disappointed with council and government after my experience in the overcrowded Emergency room. Thank goodness for paramedics from St John's. Stop building new suburbs until more hospitals are available. Shame on you.
That Gov Hub was a sick call putting it over a hospital! Karen Hayes
After being told it would take five hours for an ambulance, my husband drove me to the hospital where I ended up waiting 12 hours to see a doctor before my bowel exploded and I was rushed to surgery.
People are saying that the Allan/Andrews government might shut down country hospitals because they say they don't have enough money for them, yet somehow they have enough for building tunnels in Melbourne.
What are they thinkin' bringin' in all these people to Ballarat without beefin' up the infrastructure to handle 'em? Shirley Wilson
The medical system is failing due to lack of government funding for emergency services, but they would see the importance if they required help. Brenton Murdoch
This shit been happening for years. I had a bad allergic reaction like 3 years ago, ambulance came and I was stuck in the hallway for like 2-3 hours before they saw me. Ambulance crews couldn't leave so they were out of commission for a couple hours. Total bullshit!
Choose Wendouree, Sebastopol, or Delacombe over overcrowding at the Ballarat Base hospital. Peter Sanders
Temporary speed limit reduction required at Finches/Cargnham intersection for safety during works.
I guess I gotta figure out a different way to get the kids to school.
I sure hope they don't forget to warn us this time and maybe even spice things up with some fun detours! You'd think they'd hire a different crew for this road mess.
The Courier is only interested in your cash! If you haven't paid, you'll miss out on their lame news. Joe Thompson
Failure to plan for Ring Road expansion will result in higher costs for intersection reconstruction.
Hey, can someone who read the article sum it up for me? I drive on that road every day and don't get why I gotta pay for it.
Sucks for those who can't actually read the article, but travel on this road every day. Alan Mayor
What's the deal with that intersection? It was supposed to be a roundabout, but now they're saying it's going to be lights. Haven't gotten any updates on it yet.
