About

We watch a lot of movies: some we like, most we don’t.  The only thing we like more than watching movies is arguing about them.

popcorn2Matt is a cinephile. He loves movies, watches them obsessively, and knows what the fuck he’s talking about. He’s a familiar face at TIFF and an extraordinary organizer of Oscar pools and parties (he’s just not all that great at winning them – maybe next year, Matt!).

popcorn1Jay is the most opinionated person on the planet and loves to disseminate her thoughts loudly and proudly. She loves thinker movies and hopes to have lots of rowdy discussions with complete strangers. She loves Bill Murray and Audrey Hepburn and can’t make it through a movie without having to pee.

popcorn3Sean loves movies with naked boobs and big explosions. He brings down the curve but the other Assholes tolerate him because he usually brings the beer.

Disclosure Policy:

  1. There are paid ads on our site. Yes, we make money from them. Not lots, but still.
  2. Most of the movies we see are for free. We get press passes, comped passes, and screeners. Sorry but free movies do not equate to positive reviews. We have all kinds of personal bias but will not be influenced otherwise.
  3. We want to support indie film so we welcome your screeners but a review is not guaranteed – while studio released films are fair game, we try to stick to the policy of “if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all” when it comes to your low-budget babies.

Awards Policy:

Hey, thanks for thinking of us! However, AssholesWatchingMovies.com is an accredited film review site so we don’t tend to publish things outside of movie talk. (tags are okay)

Ottawa is built on un-ceded Algonquin Anishinabe territory. The peoples of the Algonquin Anishinabe Nation have lived on this territory for millennia. Their culture and presence have nurtured and continue to nurture this land. We Assholes are glad and grateful to be here.

    p.s. I’m actually the only one guilty of talking about myself in the 3rd person. The rest probably haven’t even figured out that we have an About page yet. They’re boys. They can’t help it.

        Jay, I am embarrassed to admit that I mistook you for one of the guys at first. Then after focusing on your comments on some of my posts, I starting thinking that this guy thinks a lot like me! Keep staying sunny and happy. : )

    I love watching movie, Im retired and twice a year I go to manila and I have this senior citizen card that I can watch movie for free . That privilege is for 60 years old and up..in manila three times a week you can watch for free. While in makati you can watch movie every day for free if you have the senior card in that city. And all the movie are in first class mall , and whatever movie they have here in America they do the same.. Thank for visiting my site.

      That’s a very cool system and we don’t have anything like it here. We hope you come again soon and let us know what you think about the movies you’re watching!

    Jay, thanks for your comment on Tubularsock’s SOCK-IT-TO-ME: FIFA. Glad you liked the take.
    Tubularsock just had to follow your work because well, assholes aren’t all bad! Looks like a very interesting “take” on film.

    Great blog, I will be back. I love getting ideas for interesting movies to watch, and to avoid. 😉 And Jay, I can relate to the part about not making it through a movie without a little break. Ps: Thanks for the comment over at my blog.

    Hi there, and thanks for stopping by my web-corner recently. That single action resulted in me landing here to see who the hell these Assholes are, and subsequently clicking on something that commits me to reading more output from Assholes.
    Well done!
