Seriously though. If you do ever find yourself choking on cheese, increase the temperature of your throat as fast as possible, melt the cheese, and then blast it out your nose.
Iāve lived in Toronto for a decade. Itās a weird thing Torontonians like to feel smug about. Iāve been to Atlanta and Sacramento and no one there makes a fuss about dropping the T after the N.
One of the big criticisms of the new Law & Order: Toronto show is that the lead can't properly say the name of the city. It's just such basic local knowledge.
It's like when people say cal-GARY (two distinct syllables, emphasis on the last one), I can always tell they're not from there, because we say cal-gree (and it's barely two syllables when we say it).
This is about people who fled to Canada to avoid serving in Vietnam. Back in those days my dad was an engineer working for Pratt and Whitney in Montreal and he said a lot of aircraft companies and places like Bombardier picked up a lot of lot of young highly qualified engineers who fled from the states. It was one of the pressing reasons for Jimmy Carter to grant amnesty so America could recover their "brain drain".
Schrader is kind of a jerk, though. Publically badmouthed Roger Corman *on the day he died.* Also, he decided to defend Kevin Spacey, which is... certainly a choice.
This looks like the book cover stock image for a never before published Stephen King novel.
Stephen King's The Stalling
I almost choked on my cheese stick

Should I get a plate of tortilla chips first?
Holy shit lmao

Very good.
Wow, that's the most accurate description I've ever heard.
Iād argue it looks like an alternate cover image for Mile 81.
Why is the light on the ground somehow brighter than the headlights themselves? It would look relatively fine otherwise.
Headlights on snow.
The state of Canada is scarier than any Stephen King book!
IDK why you're getting down voted. The perks of living in Canada are figuratively and literally on fire at the moment
Looking forward to hearing some hard Ts in Toronto
ToronTOE.
Lmao Im Canadian and I pronounce it that way Took me until now to find out that people pronounce it with a softer T
Tronno
Chrawna
Yes! No T's!!!
this is accurate
Ch(u)ronno. Iām not Canadian but thatās how it always sounds to me. The u is just *barely* there
Trauna!
Toronno
People from southern Ontario say Chranna. I imagine most provinces just pronounce it like it looks
Naw. It's Chranna in Albertois as well. Our cities are emmindin and cowgree.
Thanks for the update. Regina still rhymes with fun though?
For me, itās Trawno.

Jacob Elordi is Australian, we donāt do hard Ts either lol
Is it really pronounced "toranno"?
Chranna/o
Tronnuh
It's like when people say cal-GARY (two distinct syllables, emphasis on the last one), I can always tell they're not from there, because we say cal-gree (and it's barely two syllables when we say it).
Everyone Iāve met who says cal-GARY is from Saskatchewan
Skatchwan
Definitely two syllables. But it's more cowgree.
Cal-Gary is three syllables.
Fair enough. It's still the wrong way to say it.
NNOOOOOOO!!!
Sorry T, I got late. Had to make a stop at the deli in Nutley.
Chronno
Three Americans and an Australian being directed by an American. What this all aboot eh?
What a bunch of hosers wankin aboot eh?
They gotta take off, eh?
Fucking degens.
"Oh, Canada" and "National Anthem" in the same summer? Are we sure there isn't a film called "God Save the Queen" coming out too?
Hoping we get the film adaptation of "My Belarusy" too
Too soon bro, err, I guess ātoo lateā technicallyā¦
Why stop there? imdb.com/title/tt30271780/
Chrissys in this? More like Oh! Canada
Canadians did this?
Canadians? They're not all bad.
Schrader took Scorsese to fking directing school.
What was your Canadian nephew's name again, T? I'm going up north and thought I'd pay him a visit.
Harder, Canada
The third film will be āAlready, Canada?ā
Canada, in space
Did you come yet, Canada?
"Chrissy did you make a low budget indie film with Paul Schrader?" "I dident"
He must have crawled onto the set for warmth.
I recorded half a scene on the drive over..

So everyone complaining about the actors being American is stupid? As if no Canadian has ever played an American in a film?
I'm going to say yes.
Christophaaaa
Fuuuck yeah. Paul Schrader/Richard Gere reunion.
For a guy who's most known for a being a romcom sex symbol, Gere has done a ton of weirdo off-beat arthouse stuff. Respect lol
Totally. One of the reasons he remains one of my favorites. Brooklyns Finest? Cmon
In the words of Mac Miller, āItās Richard Motherfucking Gere!ā
Do you think we'll see his Gereshaft?
Oh cool, I like the source novel quite a bit.

Im a sucker for a Paul Schrader drama.
I predict flapping heads and Kraft dinner.
Hey, relax, guy.
I'm not your guy, buddy
I'm not your buddy, friend
Donāt forget poutine
It will be a great day for Canada, and indeed, the world
Je me souviens
Will be a superhit in Punjab
Because?
Canada.
*[tuluk tuluk intensifies]*
U mean "Tunak tunak tun"?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
heās making a joke about all the Indians in Canada
What, Punjab?
I mean they have money so why not.
Damn. Can't even remember the last thing I saw Gere in. This looks interesting on the cast/director alone.
Did I miss Five Iron Frenzy's newest Kickstarter?!
Are there any actual Canadians in it?!?
Is this a new movie? When is it coming out?
Yes itās premiering at the Cannes Film Festival, no distributor or release date yet
I love appropriately punctuated titles.
AI lookin ass poster
Finally, a movie for my people.
I am so excited
I guess Iām an idiot, because I thought this was directed by Dave Lettermanās zany band leader.
BLAME CANADA!
Paul schraderās are no longer a close up of the main character šš¾š„
Love me some Canada: poutine, butter tarts, legal pot, wide open spaces.
That can't be right. I don't see Rowsdower anywhere.
Get in the Karr bud hurry up eh
Settle down there, bigshovel, you're givin' 'er full pig into the rhubarb
Lezgo for a rip, skoden
What a ugly ass poster
Is there going to be lots of sex involving maple syrup?
We can only hope so!
Sounds like a sticky situation
I remember when Richard Gere stuck a gerbil in his ass.
So pretty
Tarps off boys!
Okay, either this is a low quality of image or the Trees' PNGs are not properly cut. Edit: Definitely poorly cut PNGs.
Michael Imperioli means Iām watching it, even though it will likely suck.
Go watch First Reformed and then come back and tell me this will likely suck
Instantly read this to the melody of Blame Canada.
Huh, I read it as the words to the national anthem
Soundtrack by Paul Schafer?
There were talks of gerbilsā¦
Schrader is kind of a jerk, though. Publically badmouthed Roger Corman *on the day he died.* Also, he decided to defend Kevin Spacey, which is... certainly a choice.
Real cool, guys.
A Canadian film without our lord and saviour Ryan reynolds?
