@BaronDestructo It gets traction if it’s Ethan Hawke replacing Robin Williams, and Maya Hawke replacing Ethan Hawke

@RyTron One of the funniest shorts I’ve ever seen. I thought the theatre was going to explode

Jim Munroe releases his first sci-fi novel in 20 years and there's only 165 copies, each with custom covers. NATURALLY.

Looks like it's about about game designers who create a shared NPC—and kick off the singularity. ❤️ it.

I was lucky enough to tour with it to Korea and Beijing, commemorated in this little ebook about giving an R-rated film workshop to 75 Korean schoolchildren. So panic inducing:

Just watched The Storyville Mosquito by @kidkoala w my 8 yr old and her brain exploded in wonderhouse fashion. Old-school theatre new-school tech puppetry turntable magic. A standing O in T.O. - who woulda thunk. Highly recommend this weekend

Banshees of Inisherin is terrific. Other standouts I caught at #TIFF22: Woman King, Venus, The Blackening. Heard good things about The Whale, Brother, The Menu, The Swimmers. Such a delight to watch movies on the big screen again

Can't wait to see this doc come together--terrific story.

We're almost done the Rough Cut of Kairos - the documentary I've been directing about a quilter's quest for justice after her brother is shot by the RCMP. Here's a few stills cause I'm really feeling that sense of making progress on this thing. (shot by the Immortal @tateyoung)

@averagejenn @TheJRobbins And you can cheat to make it feel more FCP7-ish -- the keyboard setup has an FCP7 option, and so no need to bother learning Premiere's layout :)

[Tate Young @tateyoung]

@averagejenn If you loved FCP7 (which we all did) Premiere's the choice. FCPX will drive you crazy.

Composer @Adrian_Ellis pulls apart his piano and plays it with fishing wire -- one of my favourite moments in his creative process

[TheMusicOfMadness @MusicOfMadness]

That’s not how you play a piano! Adrian describes the interesting discoveries that emerged from his sonic experiments.

As a former Albertan who enjoyed many weird mushroom burgers at the Baron, really looking forward to this documentary

[Tate Young @tateyoung]

@KirkNeff @ArmstrongGN Totally. I remember @KirkNeff sitting in the suite for hours -- still a great story: https://t.co/SkZ0IYOsll

@ArmstrongGN @KirkNeff Loved that story, still remember @KirkNeff bringing the footage into the edit suite the first time. Lotta magic.

@RyTron I like that it’s zesty mint flavour
