Bye-bye, Wellywood sign
- The Wellingtonista
- Wellington Airport has actually listened to the massive public opposition to the Wellywood sign (and potential legal troubles from Hollywood) and have ditched the idea.

Wellywood Sign Generator
- The Wellingtonista
- The Wellywood sign madness/awesomeness continues! Aucklander Edward from has created the Wellywood Sign Generator. This is a crop of my attempt, where I have added a helpful "lol" to explain that the sign is a "send-up" and a "tongue-in-cheek play" on the Hollywood sign.

Wellywood: good idea, dreadful idea
- Wellington Scoop
- It’s a great idea to put a Hollywood-style sign on the Miramar peninsula. But it’s a dreadful idea for the sign to use the cliched “Wellywood” word, which does nothing except show that we are hankering after older and bigger film industries rather than having confidence in our own identity and our own name.

The new issue dividing our capital
- The Wellingtonista
- First it was "Bret or Jermaine?" then "Smash Malice or Brutal Paegent?" but now it's time for the really big decision - which Facebook group to join - "Hey, let's NOT have a 'Wellywood' sign in Wellington"or "A WELLYWOOD sign on the Miramar Cutting Hill is a STUPID idea"?

Hooray for Wellywood
- The Wellingtonista
- Everyone knows that while Wellington has a world-class, award-winning film production industry, it's been sorely lacking one serious thing: a giant sign proclaiming WELLYWOOD.
