What we’re about
What's better than seeing a movie, then discussing it over food and drink? In Morristown it's easy enough to do both! Enjoy a great movie, discover a new place with delicious food, and have stimulating conversation with friendly, interesting people. We won't just stay in Morristown. If the movies we want to see don't come to us, we'll go to them! You'll find us in Morristown and surrounding areas, Bernardsville, East Hanover, Rockaway, Cranford, etc. but we'll go to specialty theatres in Chatham and Montclair as well. We'll enjoy a broad, eclectic range of movies and a variety of food. Sure beats going to the movies by yourself!
Our Meetups will take place at different times of day - sometimes involving dinner, sometimes lunch or afternoon tea. Ideally, all within walking distance of the theatre. All movie fans are welcome. Hope you can join us!
We have recently added "annual" dues to the group. Why? Because Meetup charges me, as the organizer, $90 every six months, to host this group. Our group members thought it fair that this cost be dispersed via dues, since I don't charge for events. And because they didn't want me to continue to pay $180 per year to host the group! The best part is that the more people who pay the dues, the longer we are covered. So, the dues may up being bi-annual instead! Enjoy your free trial and hopefully you will become a full member after that!

If you are new to the group – welcome! Please be aware of the following:
OUR NO SHOW POLICY:
• If you RSVP and your plans then change, we ask that you notify us and change your RSVP as soon as possible - definitely before the start of the event. It's unfair for the group to wait around after the film for people who do not show up. And it fouls up reservations made at the restaurants we visit. NO SHOWS WILL NOW BE WARNED ONCE AND REMOVED FROM THE GROUP AFTER THE SECOND OCCURRENCE. We keep a list of no-shows - please change your RSVP prior to the start of the event so you don't end up on it! Thank you for your consideration.
