Yeah this is the thread. Let's hope Tobor is doing okay... although it was only $100.I aware there was another thread talking about this and there was a guy who had purchased $100 of shares
Yeah I live within 10 minutes of 2 cinemas - one's a multiplex (where I have my unlimited card) and the other covers all my art-house needs, which I go to maybe once a month. I guess I spend about £300 a year on movie tickets (unlimited sub + art-house tickets) but I see like 120 movies a year so it works out damn cheap (about £2.50 a ticket).
I mean, it's a win win for you. Just use it until they go belly up. You can sign up monthly.My friend keeps telling me to sign up, but he never understands why I'm so hesitant.

I'll be ok. Mostly lol.

I'm sure it was a fun ride for their customers. Did they really bank on people only seeing 1 move or less per month? Even if they sold data it wouldn't make much sense. Like I'm paying 10/month and can see a movie a day, I'll pretty much watch anything if I've got a free day and bored enough.
I think the cost of going out to the movies has risen so much along with a decline in interesting movies that people were forced to be more selective about the films they went to see versus the films they were willing to wait to hit streaming services / digital / disc and MoviePass interpreted that as people really didn't care about going to the movies and wouldn't use the service that often but it would be cheap enough that they'd keep the subscription running "just in case". Instead, people really are interested in and enjoy going to the movies but the cost per movie outing is outrageous and this solved that issue for many people.
I honestly haven't been to a movie theater in 7-8 years and this would have gotten me back in the theater but I never signed up for it because of the negativity surrounding it here at ERA.
Either that or they thought someone would buy them before they had to figure out their own system. I think the subscription model will be a thing but not before people stop going to the movies again. There's not even an AMC theater in my state so I've gained nothing from this currently.
Pretty much. Was always against using this because I expected it to not last. This news was far from surprising despite what the fans swore otherwiseMy friend keeps telling me to sign up, but he never understands why I'm so hesitant.

I'm fine with it dying. Got my money's worth and Costco will refund me :).
Or at least half or something. Then I'll sign up for the awesome looking AMC plan.
Yep. I honestly think they should just raise the prices now. The service is fantastic for me here in New Jersey.Shame, honestly would've been open to paying $20 / month since 1 movie already goes break-even for me

You aren't looking hard enough clearly. I've seen an abundance of fantastic movies with MP.I would have signed up if movies weren't so terrible right now.

True, but better now than a month from now when the doors are closing.I don't think you're supposed to wait until the death of your company to raise prices.
Somebody described their business model to me and it sounded like a joke.
I guess it was.
