Love to go to see indie and foreign films and then talk about them afterward? Me, too!

But, when I moved to NJ I found my friends here did NOT share my tastes so I created the NJ ArthouseFilm Society (just to sound fancy). And, wouldn't you know it, there are tons of people lik …

So...I would like to see varied activities so we can gather a large group and maybe diversify the interests I am about to mention. How about a sushi night or a karaoke night or a night with both if we can find a venue. …
