About the movie

From the filmmakers of Snow Buddies comes a new adventure starring Disney’s irresistible talking puppies.

Our five canine heroes sneak on to a rocket ship to go where no Buddy has gone before – the moon! Their wild ride through space introduces them to two new friends Spudnick (voiced by Hannah Montana’s Jason Earles) and Gravity (voiced by comedienne Amy Sedaris). Together they summon their courage and ingenuity to launch plans for a moon landing and a rocketing trip back home.

Rated G, Space Buddies is a tale of teamwork and loyalty that celebrates the journey of life and the friendships made along the way.

The Disney DVD is packed with bonus features including Buddy bloopers, fun facts, a music video by Camp Rock’s Alyson Stoner, deleted scenes and a behind the scenes featurette DisneyPedia: The Buddies Guide to Space Travel. It’s available to own on Disney DVD and Blu-ray from 1 July 2009.

Our sub-zero heroes have returned to the big screen just in time for school holidays – and have teamed up with Babble to give away some great gifts to celebrate.

About the movie
Following on from the success of Ice Age and Ice Age: The Meltdown, get ready to head back 20,000 years in time and join Scrat, Manny and Ellie in their latest adventures.

Scrat is still trying to nab the ever-elusive nut (while, maybe, finding true love); Manny and Ellie await the birth of their mini-mammoth, Sid the sloth gets into trouble when he creates his own makeshift family by hijacking some dinosaur eggs; and Diego the saber-toothed tiger wonders if he’s growing too “soft” hanging with his pals. On a mission to rescue the hapless Sid, the gang ventures into a mysterious underground world, where they have some close encounters with dinosaurs, battle flora and fauna run amuck – and meet a relentless, one-eyed, dino-hunting weasel named Buck.

Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs will be in cinemas from 1 July. It’s showing in 3D at selected cinemas.

We asked you to bitch about a bridezilla, and bitch you most certainly did.

Congratulations to Anita, Kay, Bel, Zoe, Kristen, Nicole, Dave, Kirsty and Faith, whose brushes with the beast-in-white have landed each of them a double pass to the 20th Century Fox film, Bride Wars. To those who weren’t interesting enough didn’t win… you’ll have to pay for your own passes. Sorry. Better luck next time.

A few of you may have noticed a little movie called Bride Wars, starring Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway, advertised inconspicuously around the site over the last week or so. Well, thanks to the folks behind the bridezilla themed chick-flick, in cinemas now, we (along with our sister site Defamer) have 9 double passes to the movie to give away.

To enter, simply tell us, in 25 words or less using the comments section below, your worst bridezilla encounter. Entries close 5pm this Friday, so get bitching.

[Terms and Conditions]

Come on, admit it. We’ve all encountered a bridezilla or twelve. Well, since here at Babble Australia we know how to take advantage of a bitchy situation, now’s your chance to make something out of that brush with the bitch in white. Thanks to those not at all bridezilla-ish gals (and guys) over at 20th Century Fox, we have double passes to the new Kate Hudson flick, Bride Wars, in cinemas now, to give away. To enter, all you have to do is tell us in 25 words or less your worse Bridezilla encounter in the comments section below. Entries close January 23rd?

For those of you who haven’t actually heard about the movie (really?! seriously?! have you looked at Defamer recently?), hit the jump for the PR drivel rundown.

“Liv and Emma, best friends since childhood, are always there for each other, through good times and bad. Even their respective bridal engagements happen within hours. Together they plan their weddings, each to take place at New York’s ultimate bridal destination, the Plaza Hotel. But a clerical error and subsequent clash in wedding dates pits the two brides against each other in a competition that quickly escalates into all-out war.”

A ticket to watch Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson duking it out? Who wouldn’t want to win?
