The Idea

It all started one night with five roommates trying to figure out what to watch. We decided that the best way to do this was to each pick a movie, and then vote on them. The voting process was filled with yelling and accusations of cheating, and we thought that there must be a better way to do this. 

Well, as it turns out, there was no better way. Democracy has worked for years, why try to reinvent the wheel? 

But the next day, we decided to make a list of movies we wanted to watch, and each time we wanted to watch a movie we would choose from that list. Hours later we had a list, separated by genre, thumbtacked to our wall on fluorescent index cards. And we thought, "If we're going to watch all these movies, why not review them? And if we're going to review them, why not make a blog so that the entire world can bask in the glory of our movie reviews." And so, After The Credits was born.

The idea is simple: we watch a movie, each of us rates it on a scale of 1-10 and gives a rationale. A recipe for success.
