Cinebond.Me Is ‘Tinder’ For Film Lovers… and Lovers

Have you ever gone to the theater to watch ‘Eat, Prey, Love’, ‘Love, Actually’ – or ‘Inglorious bastards’ – alone, because you couldn’t find anyone as interested in that movie as you were? Don’t worry, there’s going to be a new app in town to help you find a dat… friend to go to the movies with, based not just on who you are but also the movie you want to watch! Meet Cinebond.Me, a unique match-making app for movie-goers!
While Cinebond.Me is going to compete with every other app that connects users and lets them communicate, focusing on movies which automatically give their users something to talk about when they meet for the first time. After all, the weather just isn’t that interesting after a couple of first dates, right? Opening up Cinebond.Me’s interface reveals a few options that will interest anyone looking to score a great movie:
What Movies Are Playing?
The most obvious integration is a list of upcoming movies in your area that shows up when you open Cinebond.Me’s mobile app. Because Cinebond.Me matches people based on the movies they want to see, you need to select which ones you’re interested in. Is it a comedy – or maybe even a horror flick? As YourTango’s Sarah Harrison points out, horror movies are an excellent excuse to sit close together in the dark, while grabbing his hand during the scary parts!
More Movie Information – Integrated!
While you might even know what’s playing, you probably still want to watch a trailer or two, get a bit more information about a movie or make sure that it’s actually a good choice for a date. While horror flicks might make sense in some cases, some movies just aren’t a good choice, such as ‘500 Days of Summer’!
Cinebond.Me gets in front of any of your potential bad choices by integrating more than enough content about upcoming movies, such as a trailer, detailed description, cast, but also other media as well as the IMDb’s official score! All this information, as well as a recommendation from a friend, will make it easier for you to decide to see a certain movie on a first date!
It’s Not Tinder… Only It Is!
While the founders of Cinebond.Me say that their app is by no means a “Tinder for the cinema”… you can’t but compare their new project to the popular dating and ‘hooking up’ app that has changed the world of dating in just under 3 years, registering about one billion “swipes” per day in 2014.
While Tinder uses swiping to let you go through every potential match in your vicinity, Cinebond.Me lets you go through movie goers based on the movie they want to see… and their profile photo. Never the less, founders Domagoj Delimar and Dominik Sedlar told Netokracija that Cinebond.Me is definitely not a dating up, although a lot of people keep comparing it to Tinder. The two feel that users might end up finding love, while actually meeting a lot of new friends at the movies.
I’m sure that cuteness has nothing to do with who you decide to join for the next James Bond movie.
Cinebond.Me, when it launches soon as an iPhone and Android app, going to be a free and use a freemium model to make money, since the team is counting on working with theaters in their launch market, Croatia, as well far larger markets such as the US. Hopefully, Cinebond.Me manages to position itself as
