I think the 16th/17th is when they got an avalanche of new subscribers, so you might be pretty far behind in the list even if you signed up just one day after someone else in the thread.

Might move faster. I think they've fixed the issues since the big run up.

Two days away from hitting the one-month mark.

Watched 8 movies this month. That comes out to $1.25 per movie.

A standard ticket here in Long Island is $14.

I also had two free popcorns and have enough points for three more. (Hit the third tier of Regal membership a few movies ago.)

I. Love. Moviepass.

Had my card a few weeks and zero uses. I like to think I'm keeping all of your costs down.

I'm surprised they haven't tried this for marketing.

LeeLoo Dallas. Movie-pass.

That's a great marketing idea!

Really want my card. I've got so many movies I want to see.

I ordered mine Sep 24th, still nothing. I know you were before me. I just emailed support@moviepass to check on status.

Have you tried that?

Their twitter says all backorder will be fulfilled this week. But it is like the third time they said that. It would be nice to go ahead and get it, but I'm not dying for it.

Nice. Hoping that holds true. I just moved to a new house with a movie theater within walking distance so it teases me every day.

First use tonight for American Made. Kids in bed early and at the movie trying not to fall asleep.

Very easy to use. Impressed so far. I was surprised not to have to show an ID.

Got notice today that my MoviePass card was on the way. Should arrive in 5-7 days, so I assume they sent via carrier pigeon.

Helios boosted its support for MoviePass to $11.5 million from $5 million as part of an August deal to acquire a majority stake, according to a regulatory filing. At the same time, Helios said MoviePass's auditors are expected to warn of substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

I got two small water cups when I used my pass the other night, so I'm screwing the theater too

Just saw an ad for something called sinemia. Looks like the same thing. Are others entering the fray? Will be interesting to see how this shakes out if multiple companies try to get in on this.

I wrote about it on the last page, but movie theaters are looking to create their own version of moviepass.

Ah yes, I saw that. Guess I didn't recognize the name and assumed it was another third party.

Movie no 2 tonight. They got me this time. Medium drink and a box of raisinets = $10.75.

Movie theaters 1, Me 1.

I ordered my card about a week and a half ago. Still no card. But they have already hit my credit card for $9.95. I was under the assumption that I wouldn't be charged until I got the cars. Other experiences?

You get charged when you order the card. Your second charge doesn't happen until a month after you register the card so that you get a full month of movie viewing after receiving the card.

So I got my card last Saturday but I haven't registered it yet because I knew I wasn't going to be able to go see a movie this week. I'll be able to go see a movie next week so I'll register shortly before I go see that movie

I've had my MoviePass for 2 weeks and they went ahead and activated it automatically. Haven't had a shot to use it yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Went to see Geostorm last night. Only cause it was free.

That was awesomely ridiculous. I mean, terrible, but ridiculous.

The popcorn was pretty good, though.

This is the downside to MoviePass... I went and saw The Snowman because I was bored and it was free.


That was a mistake...
