Uncover a Movie You Love with Criticker

Jason Bean — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 03:41:47 +0000

I haven’t seen G.I.Joe: The Rise of Cobra yet, but I really want to. I know the critics have given mixed reviews but one thing I’ve found over the years is that most of the times I love the movies that the critics hate. Not sure what that really means though.

I guess it’s not really that important at all though. What’s really important is me knowing what I like in a movie. My interests are so varied though, I’ve seen so many movies, I’m not sure I could really tell you what I like. There was a time in my life (when I was single) where I would spend an entire Saturday in the theater watching movies back-to-back.

The Criticker website allows me to go through all the movies I’ve watched and rate them. It then takes those scores and recommends other movies to me that it believes I would like based on my ratings.

Criticker has more than just movie recommendations though, there’s also a nice social community around the site. What good intentioned site these days wouldn’t have a social community component anyway?

Criticker aims to match you with the people who share your taste in film most exactly. By using the Taste Compatibility Index (TCI), you can identify with whom you most agree, out of thousands. It’s more than just movie recommendations: you’re paired with the people whose tastes are most compatible with your own, and thus get the most accurate advice possible.

If you’re bored tonight and looking for something to do this weekend. Sign-up with Criticker and rate a few movies, then get a list of recommendations on what to watch this weekend.

Watch A Movie On the Largest Screens Ever

Jason Bean — Sun, 31 May 2009 04:12:00 +0000

One of my favorite things is to watch a great, blockbuster movie at my local theater which has an IMAX screen. There was a time in our history where even an IMAX screen would be dwarfed by comparison of the screens you could go see a movie on.

Remember the drive-in-movie? They still exist it’s just hard to find one that’s still in operation. The Drive-Ins.com website helps you find your local drive-in and get more information. These may not be around much longer, go take advantage of a bit of history being available now.

Welcome to Drive-ins.com, a comprehensive and continuously updated web site dedicated to drive-in movie theaters and their history. The site features an online searchable database of almost 5000 drive-ins.

The kind of information we collect and share includes historical facts and data, living history or anecdotes, news and media items, images (drawings, photos, video, even sound clips), as well as website visitor comments, forums, ratings and reviews, and drive-in theater related products.

A friend just talked to me today about them enjoying a drive-in movie this weekend. They saw Night at the Museum 2 and Wolverine. Two for one! Sounds like a great deal to me.

Fun Online IRONMAN Movie Game

Jason Bean — Sun, 18 May 2008 15:42:58 +0000

Fellow b5 blogger has uncovered a fun, online Iron Man video game that’s tied into the new Iron Man movie, which by the way is an amazing super hero movie! I’ve got to watch Batman Begins, Spider-Man and Iron Man again to decide if it’s the best super hero movie ever.

The game tests some basic skills that Robert Downey, Jr’s character, Tony Stark, had to master as he became Iron Man.

I didn’t do so well, but had a “BLAST” doing it.
