About Us
Standing amidst the shadowy, bulbous conglomerates, Cinema Blend is the entertainment site for the dreamers, the visionaries and the unusuals---the rebels who eat, sleep and complain about pop culture at their own pace and in their own language. In an age where most barter for the eighth floor penthouse at the expense of their pets, we’d rather stick it out on the first floor where it’s easier to get away with raucous parties, questionable viewpoints and genuine originality.
Fiercely independent, zealously opinionated and all-too-willing to try the occasional hairbrain scheme or unconventional idea, we’ve spent more than a decade sticking with our own style and outdated clothing choices. I guess we’re kind of like Jeffrey "The Dude" Lebowski in that way, except, you know, we always show up for work. Want to advertise on the site?
