    I bet you didn't know James Cameron was from Kapuskasing, Ontario. And if you did, did you know Kapuskasing means "bend in the river" in the Cree language? It's full circle, the way of water.

    If there isn't enough evidence the 90s have made an inevitable comeback; this film takes place in the 90s, has a 90s themed soundtrack, and is influenced by the Canadian produced Beast Wars: Transformers cartoon (or as we called it, Beasties).

    On behalf of all of Canada, you're welcome world!
