    Looking forward to True Grit, it sounds like it’ll be pretty amazing what with all the nominations it’s getting.

    Agreed, it does look great. Has anyone seen Black Swan yet?

    Why do the smaller cities in Canada get the cartoon and action movies and not movies that get nominated for awards like 127 Hours,Black Swan and The King’s Speech?
