I liked it. I had a good time. What I (and, apparently, yvesperret) learned from last year is that it doesn't get good until 3 or 4, when people start going home to sleep, and you can actually wande...
You know, I think this is the first Torontoist entry tagged "Joe Clark" that refers to the former prime minister....
Sure looks like an ad....
Was there any reason offered for Caribou performing on video? And what made it a gala was that there was an open bar (and presumably free food), correct?...
Also see Jason Anderson's (online-only) write-up for the Globe....
I have to admit I didn't have the same reaction to the movie at this screening as I'd had at After Dark. I mean, I still loved the film — it remains one of my favourite explorations of male sexual an...
Even people showing up expecting the right set of candidates were disappointed. The Conservative, Christine McGirr, didn't appear. I really, really wanted to ask her about the statement "A Stand Agai...
andrew: No apologies necessary. I appreciated your suggestion. You are going to catch flack for this, right? So far only from matty and PickleToes, but that's not really any sort of achievement....
I actually quite liked Miracle at St. Anna. The first half hour is phenomenal, anyway. It becomes considerably more conventional after that, though I like to believe that that's a deliberate part of...
Thanks for the suggestion, Andrew. I've changed it from "That is, the above" to "The above, after he retook his seat."...
I've gone into the Kensington Loblaws exactly once. (I was desperate to find a pre-made pizza crust, and I'd already checked virtually every other local shop. As it turns out, they carried nothing o...
Mark: Maybe not, as this sign was removed in March. Although there's a good chance Tribar's screen at Dundas and Spadina uses the same system....
"Astral Media—which, as a part of the street furniture contract, has right of first refusal to operate a bike share system" Not exactly. Here's what the contract says: The Company [i.e. Astral] agr...
What rek said is accurate: The auditorium is accessible, but the washrooms aren't. Same with The Royal. (Which, I have long suspected, is one of the reasons neither venue is used for TIFF.) The st...
Yeah, Ghost Town is merely okay, but it's so earnest that to actively dislike it would seem mean....
For everyone here, I highly recommend Marc Weisblott's Scrolling Eye blog. He shows that it's possible to combine gossip with intelligent and substantive media criticism....
Thanks, cris66. (I love your email address, but I won't reveal it.) I just changed the sentence. For those of you wondering, what this is about, I had originally written, "And today it comes out in...
When the Fox has movies this good (as they do at least once a month), it's worth schlepping out there. The Queen streetcar ride is beautiful, but you have to leave yourself plenty of time. Better to...
Audrey: The complete schedule comes out Tuesday, August 26, which is the same day as the programme book. Right now, the only schedules that have been released are for the Galas (the stuff playing at ...
Does that mean if the owner changes they need to give permission again? Can an owner, or new owner, decide against the allowance and force the billboard down? Hey, rek, sorry it's taken me a week to ...
