About Us Sometimes you just want to enjoy a good meal and watch a movie. And then talk the hell out of it afterwards. I want to meet anyone who is interested in catching a flick either during the week or over the weekend and want to talk about it over some food.  And don't worry, you don't have to prepay me or anyone else for tickets or to save a spot or answer a million questions to get in the group.  There's enough stress in the world, why add to it?  We're a group of movie-lovers who just wan …

There are a ton of meetup groups with the word dinner in them. But I have found most to be laden with ridiculous rules, paying fees to the organizer or "pay in advance". I have had amazing success with now two "pop up" group dinners and figure it's time I officially organize my own. Trust that I will always be open to many cuisines and restaurant suggestions. Age, occupation, where you reside is irrelevant to me! And I will always consider price range at any place chosen. My only " rule" ? Don't …
