David Lynch, man! David Lynch, man! Does whatever David Lynch can! Spins a tale, any size, Confuses viewers, just like flies! Look out! Here comes David Lynch, man! Is he strong? Listen bud — He's got radioactive blood. Actually, wait, that last bit might not be true, but for some reason we keep thinking of that TV theme...no idea why. This week people are going crazy in Toronto queuing up to see the latest massive......

Torontoist already has a documented history on disliking Death of a President (including arguing with a FIPRESCI jury member about it) and we don’t really need to go into it again, so let’s hear what the critics have to say. Eye’s Liz Clayton gives it three stars, but doesn’t seem that enthused; “ultimately doesn't insinuate anything more creepy and despairing than what turns up in the real news every day”, while NOW’s Cameron Bailey finds......

For those of you who didn’t attend on Wednesday night, the news coming out of the Pontiac Quarterly is that founder Damian Rogers is leaving the poetry/prose/arts/music night. Liz Clayton is taking over organizing and hosting duties, with her first edition slated for October. Watch for falling haikus: As Ron posted about on Friday, 50 poets, including George Elliot Clarke and Stuart Ross, will be invading Dundas Square today from noon until midnight. If you......

A quick update to an old story before we get onto all the new releases that are going to make us as depressed as ever – Remember You, Me and Dupree? We hypothesised that movie-execs came up with the title “while explaining what was going to happen during some sick, cocaine fuelled orgy”. Turns out we were right, as long as during the sick, cocaine fuelled orgy was to the tune of Steely Dan’s Cousin......

Those who attended the transit-themed Spacing magazine launch this past Tuesday may have noticed something not unlike Spacing's subway buttons floating around, except featuring Robot Johnny's anagrammed station names instead. These were the brainchild of Liz Clayton, who yesterday received cease and desist letters from lawyers at both Spacing and Robot Johnny. She has since approached ttcrider.ca to organize a protest against their bullying.......

With all your usual movie news outlets having gone crazy for Sundance, here at Torontoist we’ve gone crazy for C.R.A.Z.Y, Jean-Marc Vallee’s coming-of-age-when-you’re-gay- and-you-think-your-dad-is awesome-but- won’t-be-down-with-that flick, being shown tonight as part of Cinematheque Ontario’s Canada’s Top Ten programme (8:45pm, Jackman Hall, Art Gallery of Ontario, 317 Dundas West). The showing is preceded at 6:30pm by a fascinating panel – Pop Culture as History/History as Pop Culture, featuring Atom Egoyan (of Canada’s Top Ten......

Eye Weekly is fourteen. What does fourteen look like? It doesn't look like a gangly teen in flannels and black Cons, and it no longer wears black and yellow round the clock. It sports all new fonts, in the key of The Royal Tenenenbaums, and it's full of new features. For a fourteen year-old, it's surprisingly sophisticated. As far as features, they've kept much of the good stuff (my apartment, a rip off of......

Tomorrow, knitters in the city have plans to take over the Toronto Transit Commission with a TTC Knit-A-Long. Two groups will meet at different spots in the city and pit their knitting prowess against each other. They will converge in Kensington Market for lunch and then do their final knit-off on streetcars ending with a grand prize. There will be many opportunities to munch before, during and after. Come out and meet knitter extraordinaire......
