The 2012 Worldwide Short Film Festival kicked into gear last night at the Bloor Hot Docs Cinema, with an entertaining, and wonderful program featuring shorts from around the globe. The seven shorts featured ran the gambit from whimsical to laugh out loud funny, with a dash of romance and historical combining into an enjoyable potpourri of entertainment. The first…
The Secret of NIMH (1982)
Don Bluth came up through the ranks of the Disney Company, and in the late 70s and early 80s when the studio seemed to be no longer producing films on par with what they had in the past, he left. Forming his own animation production he went on to make some of the best films…
Game of Thrones S02 E10 – Valar Morghulis
There it is, the season finale, and we’re done for another year, it’s gonna be a long wait for a return to Westeros, but maybe I’ll read Dance of Dragons between now and then to fill up some of the time. This week, we saw the fallout of the Battle of Breakwater, as well as…
Romancing The Stone (1984)
“Romantic novelist my ass!” “The Joan Wilder?!?” I love this movie, it’s just so much fun, and has so many wonderful lines that tend to fall from my lips on a regular basis. In the early 80s, everyone was kind of keen to cash in on the big adventure stories ever since they saw what…

The Killing – Day 24 – Bulldog
Okay, we are now mere DAYS away from finding out who killed Rosie Larsen, and I am practically sick with anticipation, so this is going to be one scattered post! I can’t even really bring myself to focus on the events of this episode, because my mind is a-flurry with theories and thoughts right…
The Innkeepers (2011)
I’ve wanted to see this movie since I first saw the trailer for it. I was a little unsure of what I would think of it, as I didn’t care for Ti West’s Cabin Fever 2, and despite wanting to like his House of the Devil, I just felt that it was a little dull….
Heavy Metal (1981)
I remember seeing the covers for these magazines when I was a kid, collecting my first Star Wars comics, and even then at age 8, I was suitably intrigued by the covers. They gave me funny feelings in my tummy with all the babes, and all the cool sci-fi weapons, swords, robots and aliens that…

This week, Sue and I are joined by the incredibly talented photographer Rebecca Sandulak. If you haven’t seen her work yet, have a look at her portfolio, television and film work here. She’s done some fantastic work, and joined us for en evening in High Park to chat with us about her work on…
Hollywood Treasure
I will openly admit I came to this show late, they’re already 6 episodes into Season 2, and I am just starting Season 1. That being said, I did fly through 3 episodes last night, so I don’t see a problem with me catching up in no time at all. I’m not always the biggest…
