Jamie,
The movie group used to work differently. It was changed
for a few reasons:
1. I cannot know all the movies the theater will
play until a few days before the meetup. This meant I had to setup the voting
out right away and then have everyone vote in 48-72 hours.
2. Often the
people who voted to watch a movie didn’t come to watch it. There was one movie
where no one who voted for the movie came to watch it!
3. We used to
meet on the same Saturday each month, regardless of when movies opened. We often
had the issue that people would have already watched the movie its opening
weekend, since they didn’t know the group would be watching it.
My solution to the above issues is to schedule movies
that I want to watch on their opening weekend. That way anyone interested will
know months in advance that the group will be watching the movie.
Whenever there is enough interest by group members in
seeing additional movies or doing other activities, we’ll schedule those as
well. I encourage everyone use the Ideas page to suggest
movies or other activities.
