About us
I'm guessing there are a few solo movie-goers who would prefer to watch in a group (and maybe hang out after). That's the idea behind this meetup. Show up to the movie a few minutes early for introductions. Watch together, share popcorn, etc. Afterwards we can go for drinks and/or snacks and talk about the film or anything else.
Please use the chat to send me suggestions for movies you'd like to see!
Update: We are now doing our own film screenings at Seattle Public Theater in Green Lake, UHeights Center in the University District, and Illume Church in Ravenna (they aren't religious events, we just rent the space from Illume).

Sal is the Italian owner of a pizzeria in Brooklyn. A neighborhood local, Buggin’ Out, becomes upset when he sees that the pizzeria’s Wall of Fame exhibits only Italian actors. Buggin’ Out believes a pizzeria in a black neighborhood should showcase black actors, but Sal disagrees. The wall becomes a symbol of racism and hate to Buggin’ Out and to other people in the neighborhood, and tensions rise. Do the Right Thing was nominated for two Academy Awards, including Best Original Screenplay, and was inducted into the Library of Congress’s National Film Registry in 1999.
