    **moviepass is one of the best things ever

    in case you guys haven't gotten it yet

    $10/month and you can go to 1 movie every 24 hours

    works like a charm... they mail you a debit card

    i use the self-service kiosk after picking the movie time on the app, don't even need a pin number

    going to see "it" at 9:00 this morning, then i can watch some of those games

    good to be well rounded... rather than just sit in front of the tv all day, you can sit in front of a larger screen too

    the other cool thing about it is you are pretty much paying cash, so you build up rewards too

    here we have marcus/amc, both have rewards programs so you can get free food while you're watching free movies

    will do

    i'm going this early so a certain segment of the population isn't up yet to talk during the movie

    last 2 scarier movies i saw at the theater, i went in the middle of the day and was the only person there (47 meters down/annabelle creation)

    that's the way i like it, especially scary movies, i hate it when people are yelling "don't open that door" ... just stfu

    it is a pretty awesome service. I've used my card 2x so far and no issues. And though they don't let you see Imax movies they have let me buy tickets for the ultrascreen screenings.

    IT is a pretty good move, won't give any spoilers but it was worth the $7. Saw it at 3 PM, maybe a dozen people in the theatre. No idiots

    I ordered mine a while ago and still haven't gotten it. Kind of annoyed since their support is akin to a D rated offshore book.

    they all end up on tv anyway. theaters soon to be obsolete so go why you can by yourself. haven't been in one since 1987. i hear they have stadium seating now and some serve food. so everyday you wake up excited that that you can use that movie pass and you head out by yourself of course to watch one. pathetic. just google it and you will never go again.

    i don't go to the movies every day, about once/week

    why do you care whether i go by myself or with 10 other people? i'm with my family almost 24 hrs/day so if i'm alone at the movies for a couple hours it's a joy

    you're right theaters are getting obsolete... makes it a better experience. like going to a shopping mall or golfing now vs 5 years ago, a lot less crowded

    waited until noon today and saw the imax version of "it"

    i thought it was pretty good, expected a bit more but i'll give it 8/10

    seeing 12 year olds say fukk every other word is a bit much, and an extended scene with their shirts off was pedo creepy

    that and the movie running pretty long were my only complaints (other than having to move back because mother of the year brought her kid in a stroller who was making a lot of noise)... never ceases to amaze me how dumb/inconsiderate some of these parents are to their children and everyone else

    Actors have to work for their money now...

    They are working on average around 20 projects a year...

    Now that you can download 60+ movies on a single USB mass media file storage plug.....

    Some actors are working for free............

    Don't know how they get some of these movies up to 3 months before release...........

    Don't ask don't tell,I guess.......

    DiCaprio is about the only actor not whoring himself out........

    Here is a very interesting documentary showing how powerful Hollywood lobbyists really are......

    Kim Dotcom: Caught in the Web (2017)


    The story of the most wanted man online............

    User Reviews



    antiquated international laws21 August 2017 | by David Ferguson (fergusontx@gmail.com) (Dallas, Texas) – See all my reviews
    Greetings again from the darkness. On paper, the real life story sounds like some cheesy B-movie thriller on the trail of a super- hacker nicknamed "Dr. Evil of the internet" as he builds his empire by stealing the work of others. However, director Annie Goldson is dealing in reality and submerges us in the years-long saga of Kim Dotcom, the (somewhat) proud owner of the Dr Evil moniker. This is every bit as much a commentary on legalities and technology as it is on the 'livin' large' lifestyle of the film's subject.

    A sprawling estate with a security wall and cameras located in Coatesville New Zealand is where we begin. It's the home of Kim Dotcom, formerly known as Kim Schmitz, and his wife Mona and their 3 kids. Think Jordan Belfort in THE WOLF OF WALL STREET and you'll have a good idea of the type of extreme parties that Kim and his cohorts hosted. In 2012, a pre-dawn raid of the estate changed everything – and we are privy to some of the actual footage.

    After the raid, law enforcement threw just about every possible charge at him: money laundering, racketeering, and most crucially, copyright infringement. Perhaps you were one of his MegaUpload customers? Millions of people were, and he banked hundreds of millions of dollars from his site – a site designed for users to share files with others. Of course, it turned into a site where mostly what was uploaded and shared were digital copies of movies and music. The files spread across the globe while artists and production companies received no royalties. The question of law boiled down to this: can an online provider be protected or insulated from the (illegal) actions of its users?

    Kim Dotcom has been described as a parasite, a criminal and as evil. Obviously, he sees himself much differently and while reveling in his "most wanted man online" badge, he prefers to position himself as a resistance fighter … one who has simply seized an opportunity afforded by a technological revolution of which lawmakers can't maintain pace.

    Director Goldson provides as much structure as possible to a messy and multi-faceted legal story, while also presenting the super-sized personality of Kim Dotcom … a man driven by ego, greed, and fame. He clearly thrives on his celebrity status (as evidenced by his participation in a Town Hall meeting with Julian Assange and Edward Snowden), and from a very early age became quite comfortable with relaxed ethics in our ever-evolving culture of technology.

    In an era of dissolving morals, he is a difficult man to muster sympathy for. It does seem, however, that he was at a minimum, a victim of over-reaching by law enforcement. The legalities of the search warrant and charges are a bit murky (and still being challenged), and viewers will likely teeter between 'lock him up' and 'modernize the laws'. We all know the universal internet is tied to the global economy, so why are international copyright laws so fragmented and antiquated? Instead of a B-movie thriller, Ms. Goldson has delivered a true-to-life horror story … one with no clear resolution in sight.

    sorry, if you enjoy it do it. i can understand it is an escape mechanism. but those annoying kids and others in those theaters makes one want to cringe. do they allow those society ruining phones in there turned on to further distract people.
