I am back from Toronto yesterday. It's nice to see Channing Tatum, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogen, Max Minghella and a pregnant Bryce Dallas Howard in person.
Channing Tatum in real life doesn't look that BIG, but he is super FIT, and very nice to fans. I got him sign my Eagle book and a photo.
I also recorded Q&A sessions after the screenings of 50/50 and Ten Year.

Interview Speaking of the movies themselves, 50/50 has its fun moments. Acting from the main cast is good, however, I don't think Seth Rogen and JGL have strong chemistry (well, from a slasher's point of view, I am a bit biased). And they write yet another character of Alzheimer's disease into the film without exploring the subplot. It's pointless.
Ten Year is a movie with problems. A movie with an ensemle cast needs a skilled director to bring all subplots and characters together. As a first-time director, Jamie Linden was unable to do that. There are some nice moments here and there, but overall, Ten Year doesn't deliver well. However, Channing is still nice to look at. There are two scenes with him pondering over a ring in his car, I want to make a Marcus / Esca MV based on those scenes. I love Channing's expressions.
