The Welcome & Rating System

      Hey! Hi! Hello! Welcome! We are Eddie & Aphrodite (yes, real). We are a couple that enjoys watching all sorts of movies and would like to pass on to you what we think in regards to them. On our first date we went to see a late night movie (Pay Back, on release date). We wouldn’t suggest going to the movies as a first date, it doesn’t leave room for getting to know each other during 1 ½ - 3 hours of movie watching. Although we both liked that movie, we have different points of views on films which fuels our passion for discussing them. Movies for us is a way to cut lose and unwind after a days work and a glass of wine, sometimes. We decided to start this blog as a way to spend some of our quality time with each other, writing down what we think about the movies we have watched and to share those opinions with you. 

We have agreed to break down movie Ratings into two categories with three scales in each. The two categories are “In Theatres” & “At Home”. In Theatres refers to movies not on DVD/Blue-Ray or rentable, while At Home refers to movies you can rent, buy, download or view at your home.

Watch Now
:
It was a “Great” movie. We liked the movie and believe you should go catch the next showing you can make time for.

Rent Later:
It was a “Good” movie but we feel you do not need to rush to see it. See it if you can or wait for the DVD/Blue-Ray release.

Don’t Bother:
It was a “Bad Okay?” movie. We felt it was a waste of our money and wanted our time back.

--At Home--

Buy:
We could watch this movie again. Add it to your collection.

Rent:
Worth watching at least once at a minimal price.

Skip:
Watch something else.

We are very excited to be doing this and cant wait to post the next movie. We wanted to give you a idea of the movies we like so we picked 10 categories and selected 2 movies from each. This was very tough for us, we liked so many more and had to rattle our brains for the categories we don’t care for. Thanks for visiting our blog! We hope you enjoy reading what we have to say as much as we enjoy saying it. Cya!
