I don't have high expectations of this snowballing into something cool, but I'll try it anyways.
There are oodles of movie reviewers, professional and otherwise, in print, online, by the water cooler, everywhere.
Still, I really dig my
Two Buck Schmuck movie reviews, and haven't really read anything quite like them. I'm attached to a particular second-run movie theater, and in my reviews I often try to give a sense of time and place outside just the movie-watching experience.
I inhabit the strange limbo between first-run moviehouses and DVDs. It's a place I really enjoy.
I sure as hell am not the only person who goes to see cheap movies. And I'm probably not the only who has an opinion about these cheap movies.
So, I am creating a group. It will be international in scope. In fact, I am calling it the International Federation of Second-Run Movie Critics (IFSRMC).
If you want to be a member, let me know. I'd be happy to have you on the team!
A logo for this group is forthcoming.
