Today’s most interesting TV article (via McGrath) is Jason Anderson’s piece on the state of Canadian television drama. The article looks at the question of whether Flashpoint and other U.S.-style (and U.S.-funded) co-productions are our future, or just a writers’-strike-inspired fluke, but it also goes into the history of Anglo-Canadian TV drama shows, broadcasting, and, most [...]...

It’s the time of the summer for warm nights, where the air hugs close to your skin. One of my absolute favorite tracks on my summer mix is the combustible “July 4, 2004″ from musician Jason Anderson. My introduction to this urgently wonderful artist came via this one song, dropped in my lap by a [...]

The problem with discussing a new Harry Potter film—such as the just-released Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince —is that there’s no way to win. If you’re in favour of the series, you’re an adult in arrested development reading poorly written nonsense for kids. If you think it’s poorly written nonsense for kids, you’re a heartless curmudgeon who can’t...

What an incredible week for cinema it is if you've got a genuine interest in the representation of women in film. It's the kind of week you could write an entire research paper on. First of all we've got Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen , which uses Michael Bay's ever-so-male gaze to stare at Megan Fox with the same kind of lust with which it stares at the vehicles the Transformers turn into—an...

Weirdest news of the week? That Lars Von Trier's much-talked-about-at-Cannes horror film Antichrist is receiving a video-game adaptation . How utterly bizarre. Admittedly we're opening with that bit of news because it's a bit of a boring week for film otherwise. In fact, while going through the reviews of what's on, we found ourselves more captivated by the details that weren't really that related...

Perhaps it’s not handsome, but there’s a weird sort of gratification when you read an article or review that agrees with something you’re already thinking. Such as Jason Anderson’s review in Eye of Away We Go , where he notes that “Even the least discerning and most pliant indie hipsters may have cringed at the poster for Away We Go . That cutesy, post- Juno graphic-design...

While Greg Dobbs was taking a third strike right down the pike against the most irritating, obnoxious, and even more irritatingly, best, closer in baseball, righty Jason Anderson celebrated his 30th birthday by nailing down a save of his own for the Reading Phillies. In doing so, he preserved the win for Kyle Drabek, his [...]

This year's blockbuster season seems to have dragged on interminably already, but it's finally starting to look (tee hee) up, with the long awaited release of Pixar's latest, Up , today. Their first in 3D, we've wondered if they've chosen such a vertically-minded project because the form of 3D projection used tends to look better when things are moving up and down rather than horizontally; not that...
