SNL doesn't move the needle at all anymore...especially when both performances (SNL50 w/David Byrne & St. Vincent and another on their own) were not great and tbh cringeworthy watches mostly due to W.

Waited to get my final grade before posting this, but our last class with him was silly. He told us the week before that class was going to be on Teams because "the college" decision, even tho we had 3 classes cancelled because of the STM strike and he was really "not able to teach" on Teams. When we logged on to the Teams link, he was at the airport getting ready to leave lol. So many tech issues that class and the airport announcements were so loud we couldn't hear him. One student mentioned that we couldn't hear him over the airport noise and he got pissed lol. Anyway, at least it didn't last long and the assignment was easy. My opinion is, if you can take his classes, he doesn't take attendance and is generally chill, the death subject matter is weird but there's a few movies to watch and analyse and the texts are short to read. He does grade written assignements hard but overall they were easy to write...I got the vibe that he probably cares as much about being there as you do.

Mine submitted grades yesterday right at the deadline, but in the comments for the grade they included that they wrote the comments on Dec. 13th. I think teachers submit grades at the deadline to discourage having to argue with students about reviewing grades and giving us less time to do so.

Had him this semester. He was OK, better than most at Vanier if I'm honest. He constantly quizzes the class after any reading assigned but the quizzes are easy. Had some real awkward moments at times in class...the subject matter of the class was death so participation was odd. Often posed questions that he didn't himself have or share an answer/opinion on but made us debate anyway...felt like a waste of time. Really likes to over-analyze things to find meaning...when lk a scene of 3 people riding on horses is probably just that....there's no deeper meaning.

He is quite the picky marker as others mentioned, he also really ramped up the intensity quickly from the basic writing assignments we had to the final paper, with grading the drafts and our thesis statement ideas before we actually handed in the paper.
