Canadian Screen Awards 2017 – The Red Carpet
The Canadian Screen Awards are always a lot of fun for Sue and I. It allows is the opportunity to catch up with friends in front of and behind the camera and make new ones as well. We were wonderfully outfitted for the night by the folks at Vistek. Make sure you check out their…
The Killing (1956) – Stanley Kubrick
The next recommendation from the Great Movies – 100 Years of Film book for my viewing of Rififi is this classic Kubrick film, which before today, I’d only heard of and never seen. That being said, I can now say I’ve seen and enjoyed it, and love the way the film shuffles back and…

The Killing – Season 3 So Far
Since I’ve been abysmal at keeping up with recapping each episode this season, I thought I would just leave it until the finale and talk abou the whole thing at that point. But THEN I watched episode 9: Reckoning, and it was all I could do to not start a post while I was…
The Killing – S3 Premiere The Jungle and That You Fear The Most
I have to admit, as gutted as I was when The Killing was cancelled after a brilliant and heart-breaking second season, I actually never thought that the day would come when I could see Sarah Linden (Mireille Enos) and Stephen Holder (Joel Kinnaman) back on my screen. I am ecstatic to have been wrong…

Toronto After Dark: Grave Encounters 2 – John Poliquin
The first found-footage Grave Encounters film became somewhat of a YouTube sensation when it went viral in 2011, so naturally its success prompted a sequel to be made, but trying to re-create and top what made the first movie so much fun would prove to be the real challenge behind making the second one….
Continuum S01 E05 – A Test of Time
This week, series creator Simon Barry, and writer Jeff King bring us my favorite episode of Continuum so far, by introducing a lot of things to think about in terms of timelines in paradoxes. Because this week, Kagame (Tony Amendola) and Liber8 spring into full Terminator-mode, going after CPS Protector Kiera Cameron (Rachel Nichols) through…
The Killing – Day 26 – What I Know
First of all, I am sorry this has taken so long to write. This past week has been ridiculous with work and, to be honest, I was such an emotional mess after the finale that even now I am having trouble expressing how much I loved it, the whole series, and everyone who had…
