I love movies, and most of my friends do as well, so when we are having a movie night, it always takes forever to chose a movie. It always goes like this:

John: Shall we watch Star Wars.
Sally: Nah, I’ve seen it a million times.
Roger: What about 2001: Space Odyssey.
Jess: Oh, I’ve seen it, but so long ago, I’d be up for watching it again.
Bob: I’d be ok with 2001, but I’m feeling like watching a superhero movie, anyone else up for that?
John: As long as it’s not DC, yeah.

And it goes on and on for hours. I want to solve this problem, so I started to work on an app where you connect with friends and select what movies you want to watch, what movies you’ve seen, what movies you want to watch again, the genres you are not a fan of, your mood of the day, and it creates a single watch list for that particular group of friends, selecting the movies you all want to watch and maybe recommended a few extra you haven’t thought of.

I call it MoviePal.

What do you think? Would you use it? Please, head over to moviepal.tech to join the waitlist to be invited to the app as soon as it’s ready. I’m trying to figure it out if it’s worth pouring my money and time into it, so it helps a lot of you share to see if anyone else cares about movies as much as I do.

Thank you.
