I've plugged Movie Punks once or twice around here, but it's not the only site to combine the latest movies reviews and amateur comic strips.

Theater Hopper is a nice little bit about a guy who's so Joe Average he could work on the Satellite of Love. It's somewhat autobiographical, and often involves the author's real-life pulsating romance with his girl Cami--without being pathetically syrupy while still maintaining a healthy dose of Cute n'Sweet. (In one strip, she dresses up like Elektra from "Daredevil," and he winds up hospitalized after hugging her...and her sharp weapons; in another he makes the Ultimate Sacrifice of Love by buying her "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" on DVD. It's all supercartoony on a "South Park" level, but you can tell this guy's really in love just by the way he draws her.)

Of course, the strip isn't about that--it's about good movies, bad movies, the "theater experience," and Milk Duds stuck behind your teeth. Give it a shot, won't you?

Anyone else know of movie-and-comics sites like these?

Well, there's Movie Comics, which is only sporadically updated and sporadically funny.

Then there's Bob the Angry Flower.  The comic doesn't have anything to do with movies, really, but the guy who writes it posts a lot of movie reviews on his site.
