Choking on Popcorn started out only a couple of months ago as Suzero and Weefselkweekje’s personal movie weblog. The idea was to review every movie we saw, whether it was on TV, at the cinema or on DVD. This way we could warn eachother about bad movies and recommend good ones. It seemed logical to put it on the web to enable other people to read what we thought about these movies as well and some of our friends joined in and became regular ‘reviewers’. The contributions of those friends is what has really put the meat on our popcorn.
review and are going strong with approximately 100 unique visitors each day. The most popular search terms with which people on the web find us are “choking”, “mulholland drive lesbian” and “i bought the star wars trilogy on dvd in asia”. Recent searches within the CoP site itself include: “midnite nude movies”, “moulon rouge” and “fart”. Yes, Choking on Popcorn maintains high standards.

Many thanks to the people that make Choking on Popcorn what it is…
