A staple of Toronto construction hoardings earlier this decade, to be found wherever citizens were admonished to "Post No Bills," the dissident quartet of Cosby, Gates, Clinton, and Murray has returned. Since the end of December, the stencilled interventions have been sprayed across the city anew, lest their more-recently-conceived New York counterpart hog all the glory.

The Worldwide Short Film Festival opened last night so it's too late to call this a preview, but we wanted to make sure we'd seen as many of the programmes we could manage before we offered you any opinions on what to go and see (and what to avoid). After the jump, previews of official selections Crime & Punishment and Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me; Japanese spotlight Genius Party; Celebrity Shorts; and Sci Fi: Out There. Pictured above: Baby Blue, which plays as part of the Japanese spotlight, Genius Party.

It’s that time of year again: the time when ironic bloggers across the world post links to the Star Wars Holiday Special, quip about how terrible it is, and boast about not being able to watch it all the way through (usually linking to the five-minute-long version of it on YouTube).

It seems pretty appropriate that we just had Groundhog Day, given that we're feeling a little bit like Bill Murray looking at the concert listings this week. Not only is there very little going on, but most of the bands who are playing seem to be here every week (Apostle of Hustle, The Tragically Hip, Hostage Life, Friendly Rich). Thus, we have nothing left to say about them! So if you've already seen these shows, it is advised that you take this time to rest up because the end of February and month of March are going to be insane for loads of high quality live music.

To some people, Groundhog Day is a silly little day where some rodent-like critter gets 15 seconds in the news cycle to flip a coin and tell us if there's going to be a short summer or not. Or for some, it could be all about the 1993 classic starring Bill Murray about a crazy day that repeats itself over and over and over again.

Hey long time no speak, Justice Gomery. What's shaking? How are the Gomery's? Have you seen yet? It was very good. Bill Murray barely even speaks throughout the whole movie...just like a silent actor! So subtle, yet so powerful at the same time. Anyway, just had a few questions regarding this whole inquiry thing. Basically, we'd like to know how much credence you're giving the testimony of suspected criminal low-life's Jean Brault and Chuck Guite. And how about Chretien with those golf balls? Sheesh. What a predicament that was...

- In this case that unbroken thing is Bill Murray. Plop him in your movie, give him a track suit or two and let the camera hold on him for long spans of unspoken time. Cinematic gold. In Jim Jarmusch's Broken Flowers, Murray plays Don Johnston, a man who learns he may have a child, and begins a comic quest to track said child down. Bill Murray in a Taurus. What else do you need?
