A Star Is Born is getting all kinds of buzz and praise for its performances on screen, and on the soundtrack. And all of that love and positivity is earned and deserved. If you had told me at the start of 2018 that in October I’d be watching a film with Lady Gaga, Sam Elliott, […]
Every night of the week during CMW you can wander down a major street in Toronto and find music that will draw you in and keep you dancing, singing, and partying for hours… Wednesday night it was Bloor Street West, and the venue was Lee’s Palace for the Julian Taylor Band Showcase. With a stacked […]
With the NHL All-Star Game coming up in Nashville on January 31, we decided to have a little fun with some hockey loving country music stars and hold a fantasy draft of our own. There are 14 players on the board, 12 skaters and 2 goalies… all picked because of their experience on the ice […]
We wish you guys could hear it all… There is so much music being made right now. We’re lucky enough to be sent links and streams from local artists in Toronto, the rest of Canada, across the United States, and Europe. There’s just not enough time in the day to write about it all or […]
Rainy days happen. There isn’t anything you can do about it. But if it isn’t a work day and you’re plans to go out to the park or farmer’s market have been trashed, your day doesn’t have to be a bust. To help you out we’ve put together a list of ideas that can keep […]
I’m sure that Rob Thomas and Diane Ruggiero have already started writing the sequel to the Veronica Mars Movie. Hell, I’m sure that if I looked on the interwebs I’d find rumoured plans for a web series or new movie or something. But I haven’t looked at all. Instead I’ve taken a minute to write […]
Last night Trish and James checked out a pre-screening of Kick-Ass 2 and just like we did with The Avengers last summer, we’ve got a guest post from James for y’all. Please do not fret, THIS POST IS SPOILER FREE (except for what you’ll read if you click the link) and will not take away from your […]
April 8th is now and forever will be REX MANNING DAY! Now the question becomes, how do we celebrate? What do we do to honour the day that Empire Records gave us all those years ago? I’ve got a list of things that you can implement in your day to mark the occasion. Pick your […]
Okay… so maybe soon has been used loosely here – but that’s not my fault man. I’m excited to see OSCAR WINNER JENNIFER LAWRENCE! I wanna see Katniss kick some more ass. There was a lot of hype for the 1st Hunger Games movie and now that we’re all in on Jennifer I think we’re […]
So, we’re now months removed from The Dark Knight Rises and the end of the Christopher Nolan directed Batman trilogy. But the legend of the Batman can not end there. No! Here are the current facts that I’m thinking could be a HUGE part of the next Batman story to make it to the live […]
Look, I know that this should probably be a 10 reasons list since the name of the movie is 10 Things I Hate About You – but there are more than 10 reasons that this movie is amazing and I’m not good at paring things down. I’m also not good at putting things into any […]
I love comic books. And not just for the costumes and adventures and colours. I love the stories and characters and little things that become myth and legend and literature when given the attention that I believe they deserve. Because of that I am sometimes nervous for comic book movies. Studios love big explosions and […]
Yesterday I was walking down the street when I passed The Cardinal Rule and had to do a double-take, come back and take a photo of their chalkboard sign in front of the restaurant… I smiled. Then I Instagramed and Tweeted and started getting retweets and favourites and tweeted with @CardinalRuleTO about how they made my day. […]
So… I saw The Dark Knight Rises this week. And while I am not here to bust out spoilers (sorry, but it’s going to kind of happen) I do want to talk about what may come next and why Christopher Nolan or who ever will be in charge of the project should be allowed to […]
Note: I was going to use the word bullet in the title, but given recent events and my post about gun violence and how I’m feeling about what’s been going on I’m happy to use splash instead. I used to write a lot of lists. In fact, I got an awesome leather notebook with my […]
