This week, the biggest news in movies is that Warner Bros. has decided to stop all advance promotional screenings of its films in Canada, in attempt to stem the flow of pirated movies from Canada. Yo ho ho! Unfortunately, they’ve likely decided that Canada is a hotbed of disgusting movie pirates on some pretty wonky data. Though apparently there’s no law against recording movies in a theatre onto a camcorder in Canada, which is kind of crazy.

We here at Torontoist had a bit of a Sally Field moment when late last year the UTNE reader heaped praise on Toronto’s magazine scene, nominating Spacing, Shameless and the Walrus for the Alternative Press Award in the Best New Title category. Each magazine filled a much-needed void in the Canadian magazine industry and they still seem to be going strong. Shameless magazine just launched its third issue and doesn’t look like its losing its irreverence and sassiness. The latest issue has advice on surviving university, an interview with the over-achieving daughter of our "fifth greatest Canadian" and illustrator and snappy dresser Shary Boyle. The Walrus fired half its editorial board but doesn’t look like its going anywhere and the urban savvy elves at Spacing magazine are toiling away on another issue but what about some of Toronto’s other emerging publications?
