I don't really want to debate the artistic merits of Pedro Almodovar here, since I didn't mention him in the post and he doesn't have a film in this festival. I like his movies and I know I'm not alo...

Word, Jaime. I'm also a fan of Maurice, Lilies, The Hanging Garden, My Beautiful Laundrette, Burnt Money and anything by Pedro Almodovar....

There's some pretty good commentary about this campaign over at the Shamless blog and someone else's take on the website's make-your-own-ad feature on Banana Nutrient. You can check out the "YOUR DAD...

Marc Lostracco is my favourite person....

Isn't there a new private-room style place on Bloor right next to Rocco's Plum Tomato? I've only ever been to XO, but it looks like a similar vibe....

Yeah, that choking game is nothing new. It was all the rage when I was in middle school back in 1997. I didn't play it, though. Because it's stupid....

I can't really describe how happy those hipster captains in a giant lifesaver make me....

They were totally zippy, Robin. (Why didn't I make Wallace Wells my avatar?)...

Eep! It's at the Factory. I'll fix that....

That's right, meredi. Allie's set starts at 10....

I love this series, Jaime....

Well, The El Zorro, maybe you should make your request to everyone else in the city who calls it that....

This guide rocks, SNP. Although I would be tempted to give shout outs to some other Queen West gems (like House of Vintage, 69 Vintage, Brava and Cabaret). And if Stacy wants serious deals, occasion...

And thank you, StagedAndConfused, for actually responding to the content of my post, which is certainly refreshing. Iris Turcott is leaving too? Ill tidings indeed. Although I don't think I've had ...

As who says, Doggiez? Please, enlighten me. I'm all ears....

@Doggiez: Baby, why you gotta go make me Google old popstars? But throwback pop culture references are not going to distract me from the fact that your comments here are totally irrelevant and betray ...

I unpublished Doggiez's comment because I thought it was mean-spirited and belligerent, but I'm glad David and chickenvandoodle were able to make such an eloquent defense on my behalf. ...

Awesome, SNP....

The Oscars are so weird. I think Eastern Promises was the best movie I saw last year, and definitely better than Juno and There Will Be Blood. And two noms for Cate Blanchett? She's a fabulous acto...
