About Us!

Chrissy (FullCandyJacket)

Chrissy is, for all intents and purposes, a girl. She wears pretty dresses, enjoys rainbows and unicorns, bakes cupcakes, and makes quilts. Her taste in movies reflects this fact. She enjoys romantic comedies, teen-centric sci fi/urban fantasy/supernatural adventures, and those girl-power underdog competition flicks that require the protagonists to learn the power of friendship before they're able to achieve their goals. She is also a Sommelier-level connoisseur of cute animal antics, poop-and-fart jokes, and excessive gore. 

She is also a movie apologist. She has a tendency to be more tolerant of plot holes, lazy world-building, one-dimensional characterization, and loose fire hose camerawork than the average person would deem appropriate, so long as there are some amusing sight gags, a minimum of four well-written jokes, and at least one instance of reciprocated love or an exploding zombie head. As such, she tends to enjoy a wider range of movies, and generally leaves theaters more pleased in total than she has any right to be.

Overall, Chrissy is a happy camper.

Matt (mattkrmmr)

Matt is hard on movies and has a hard on for movies. He demands great writing, phenomenal directing and Oscar level acting.  He has no patience for plot holes and other common movie mistakes such as continuity errors and asking the audience to suspend their (our) disbelief a little too much. It's almost like Matt has two personalities; the guy who loves epic mind bending Sci-Fi movies like 2001 Space Odyssey and Blade Runner, and his softer side who giggles at Legally Blonde and sings all the songs from Frozen. The best part about the movie going experience with Matt is he is willing to see almost any movie. If I am dead set on seeing a chick flick he is 100% down, as long as he is allowed to pick it apart and make fun of it relentlessly.

Overall, Matt is a grumpy man-child.
