TIFF Tix

Individual tix for the Toronto International Film Festival went on-sale this morning... we could say something here, but hopefully the TIFF organizers are well aware. Switch them servers next year, and in advance (though to be honest, the advance ticket package lottery stuff is also about as comprehensible and fun as filling out divorce paperwork).

Now that that's out of the way, we got most of what we wanted, certainly our must-haves, but a few nice-to-have picks we missed. So if you're one of our Canadian readers that has an extra tix to "Capitalism: A Love Story" (on the 15th) "Youth In Revolt" (the 16th) or "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" (19th) you want to sell,
email us. We also have tix to "Defendor" that we don't really want and bought for shits and giggles, "Whip It" and a few others we might be willing to trade/sell depending on what you got.

Some major bummers include "Enter The Void," and the Coen brothers "A Serious Man," but we had to skip those in advance of purchasing because of scheduling conflicts, but they'll be at least two Playlist contribs on the ground floor, so who knows what else we'll get. Even journos with press passes (maybe next year?) have to make those compromises during a festival cause something is bound to conflict or overlap. Happy festivaling and to those who bought today, we hope you got what you wanted and it wasn't too difficult.

I'm pretty sure their site goes down every year on the day that the individual tickets go on sale, but this year seemed worse than previous years. It took me until about 12:30pm to finally order my extra tickets, having been trying since 7am to buy them.

Oof, that's fucking brutal. Mine only two two and a half hours, which seems like a luxury in comparison. At least I got almost everything I wanted.
