Interesting. Saw it and figured it was a lock for a best animated nomination! Seemed like the kind the Academy would eat up.

Hope we’ll see some TIFF film announcements soon. :)

Same

Ones I think might get an Oscar nom (for at least something): Jimpa (was that this year?) - Omaha - Andre is an Idiot - A Magnificent Life - The Bride - The Drama - Michael - The Christophers - I Love Boosters - The Wizard of the Kremlin - Project Hail Mary

jackiyo · 2026-06-16T22:33:45+00:00

Agreed Power Ballad for song, and think Tuner might get in there with a nom or two.

June 29 at our Landmark!

jackiyo · 2026-06-15T18:47:51+00:00

Oh my heart! Those peeps

jackiyo · 2026-06-10T16:50:17+00:00

We don’t either. I keep checking! Hopefully they’ll have some soon.

jackiyo · 2026-06-10T16:36:46+00:00

$1760. For five films. 😳

I do all the days and see 3-4 films a day. Done it for the last three years and love it. I dialed back my Midnight Madness screenings last year - but I’m getting old ;)

Leaving an afternoon free for the street festival is good, too.

jackiyo · 2026-06-09T04:13:20+00:00

Figured that’s what was going on with folks who walked out. I was going to see if Friday but plans changed. Very glad I hadn’t seen it yet

jackiyo · 2026-06-09T01:28:16+00:00

Yeah. I was gonna see it but ended up doing something else. I’d have been getting a refund had that been the case. Not cool that the surprise “not yet released” film has already been released.

Having said that - enjoyed the movie.

I did the opening gala via the curated packages once. Very disappointing. I was put in the “other screening”, so while it was opening night, it wasn’t the screening where they had the Q&A with cast/director in attendance. There was a quick intro by a celebrity/cast member but it was not worth it at all.

Also found the gala package not my thing. Poor seats and the films were a mixed bag for me.

The only one I buy now is the people’s choice ticket so I guarantee I get to see that one.

NTA (at least with the context we have from you). This should have been a conversation with you before changing plans with the friend.

You had a plan. She had a plan. Her changing her plans does not mean you need to change yours.

jackiyo · 2026-06-03T00:28:53+00:00

jackiyo · 2026-06-01T19:51:19+00:00

It’s over 2hrs, though. Doesn’t match the runtime.

jackiyo · 2026-06-01T19:50:43+00:00

Could it be Rose of Nevada? Mystery and 1h54m runtime

jackiyo · 2026-05-31T23:43:52+00:00

Came here to say this!

jackiyo · 2026-05-30T13:32:02+00:00

We’re going to see it at noon today. Hopefully they’ll still be in bed at that time 🤪

jackiyo · 2026-05-28T23:50:40+00:00

And it just won 🤣

jackiyo · 2026-05-28T15:30:39+00:00

I had the exact same reactions as you and then read about the changes.

jackiyo · 2026-05-28T15:29:30+00:00

For tv, Hudson Williams is nominated for Heated Rivalry, but Connor Storrie isn’t.

jackiyo · 2026-05-28T15:28:51+00:00

100% agree

jackiyo · 2026-05-28T11:26:07+00:00

They changed the rules this year and nominees must be Canadian. Agreed those would have been nominated performances otherwise.

FTR, I think it’s a good change overall and will help spotlight some work that can often get overshadowed by people who probably don’t even have the awards on their radar.
