TWEETS OF THE DAY! #MMadnessTIFF

It's only Tuesday and it's already been a pretty crazy Festival, from the wild ride of No One Lives to the metal mayhem of Lords of Salem, the Ryerson has been on fire.

Also on fire is our old friend Twitter, as Midnight Madness fans have been posting away from Ryerson lines to their seats (not during the movie, of course, you rubes!) and beyond.

Don't forget to use the official Midnight Madness hashtag, #MMadnessTIFF, and you might see your tweets here in this space!

FUBAR II: Giv'r Improv!

Fubar II is without a doubt one of the great Canadian comedies of all time. What is one of the reasons for its greatness, you may ask?

Well, this film is 100% improvised! It's the Hoser Easy Rider! Here is a slice from last night's Q&A session (where Terry and Dean are out of character, I may add) and they address whether or not the film was scripted.

*WARNING* Spoilers are sort of contained in this clip.

I strongly urge you to see this with a TIFF audience. You have one last chance to do so if you can get to the Varsity theatre and giv'r by Saturday!

Fubar II screens:
Saturday, Sept. 11th at 12:00pm at the Varsity 8

You can buy tickets from the official TIFF website

Twitter Madness

With over 145 million users, it's safe to say that Twitter's a pretty big deal. So it makes sense that filmmakers are using it to their advantage in promoting their films, and interacting with their fans. Some of the films playing Midnight Madness this year use Twitter A LOT, so here's some people you should be following if you want to stay as up to date on Midnight Madness as possible. Who did I miss? A lot, I know. Add to the list by posting a comment.
