HEY BASTARDS.

The Toronto Film Festival just released a sizeable chunk of the films that will be playing the big tent this year. They range from giant blockbusters in the waiting like LOOPER, to Joss Whedon’s take on Shakespeare with MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, to the next film from Terrence Malik TO THE WONDER. Don’t worry though, Bastards. There’s plenty of genre cool in this festival and you don’t have to dig far to find it, but Midnight Madness titles have yet to be announced.
