MoviePass: It's Back (Different tiers, use at any participating theaters)

[HHR]

it's practically dead.

Best bet is AMC A-list or to a lesser extent, Sinemia...but Sinema starting to do some fukk shyt with their service

?

 

[Deltron]

killed card support completely...only to claim they're gonna bring it back...so despite the fact I already have a card, they switched my account to their cardless shyt and I'm supposedly in a queue to get a physical card I already have

fees to use the cardless - although some reddit users claim it's gone...but I used my Sinemia last week and was charged the fee...and that's not including movie website fees, if you don't use promo shyt.

read on reddit that some users who signed up for he advertised 9.99/month price were charged the alternative higher price after a set # of months..and general random fukkery

i’m cancelling today too. Today was my breaking point I guess because I find it very convenient that the app stops working every saturday night

even though I (finally) cancelled still interesting to see what they're trying to do

Low morale, staff firings, and new pricing plans coming: Inside the walls of MoviePass

On Thursday MoviePass' parent company, Helios and Matheson Analytics, disclosed it lost $130 million last quarter, and suffered a "significant decline" in MoviePass subscribers.

The following morning, MoviePass staff came to work to a startling discovery. MoviePass' two-person HR department had been fired, a source at the company told Business Insider.

Now some at MoviePass are wondering if they could be next on the chopping block, according to the source.

To top it all off, MoviePass CEO Mitch Lowe has been hard to find, according to the source.

Lowe has not been on an all-hands call in two months, which the source said was a sign of his lack of involvement in the day-to-day operations of the company. Some of Lowe's duties, including running the all-hands, are being done by Khalid Itum, MoviePass' VP of Business Development.

"Mitch has been and continues to be involved in the day-to-day operations of the company," MoviePass told Business Insider in a statement.

Shortly after Business Insider called MoviePass for comment, another all hands was called to inform staff of a forthcoming story, according to the source.

On a call Monday, Itum told the staff the company was "not going anywhere." In fact, MoviePass plans to make a big splash soon by unveiling a three-tier pricing plan for subscribers, the company source said.

This would include the current pricing level of $9.95 for three titles per month as the bottom-tier option, and a top-tier price that would be similar to what AMC is offering with its AMC Stubs A-List, at $19.95 a month for three movies per week.

"We have been listening closely to our subscribers," MoviePass also told Business Insider in a statement. "While we can't share specifics at the moment, we're looking forward to releasing our new programs intended to maximize positive member experience."

The last official subscriber count the public got from MoviePass was when it crossed three million subscribers in June. The company source told Business Insider that tens of thousands of subscribers canceled in October.

If the AMC like plan doesn't have the bullshyt limitations of what movies they choose to screen, I'd get back on board

They lost $130 million in the last quarter. If they release a plan like AMC, it will still have restrictions lmao

 

[Deltron]

yeah I know, wistful thinking.

 

[Optimus Prime]

actually was able to see Widows yesterday
for some strange reason, the app actually had movies available at my Regal
of course I checked in using The Hate You Give because new movies are never available

 

[WHolla09]

I tried to do the check-in and watch another movie, but it prompted me to take a picture of my stub. Don’t know if there bluffing or if they really care what you see.

I cancelled on them this month. Not trusting them till I see actual change. Too much bullshyt changes they have done that made the service unusable over the past 4 months.

I cancelled last month because these fukkers would only have available movies in theaters at least 15 miles from my location



Do they still expect the full year payment upfront cause the email i got is giving the monthly price and is it still for only 3 a month?

Im still good with my alamo season pass and sinemia is starting a physical card rollout that would eliminate the fees. Might sign my girl up for the all access if there is no movie black out fukkery cause $15 for 3 movies is still better than paying full price

 

[the cool]

MoviePass still been good to me. Just copped tickets for aqua man


Saw creed 2 last weekend
