I got in. Now here's hoping I don't get double billed because I was trying to make an account with FB and Paypal in one browser and credentials and Amex in another.

I did the theater search near me and I swear it included most theaters, even the handful of indie theaters that screen the foreign films. This seems like a really good idea. Especially for those middle of the week movies you might see just because you don't have anything else going on.
What a selection. Thanks again!!

Empty seats happen at 98% of screenings and make the theatres and studios no money as is. Getting data and concessions sales makes this pass a no-brainer. The number of people who will fail to get their $120 worth of visits in per year will take away quite a bit of the losses that could be had on people who go more than once a month average. And many of them will buy concessions each visit.
So yes, $10 is likely a loss leader move to bump up subscriber count for now, but it has tons of value for the industry even if it may be a ticket loss for the time being. But surely the price will be higher down the road and we can all figure out that it is likely a planned sooner rather than later. Subscriber boost to this degree is a short term goal.

Got in. Seems like every Portland, OR theater is a participant. Though once I get into the app, no showtimes or theaters are available.

Mine went to my Gmail spam initially, so make sure you check it.

The capital gain we suspected was tied to this move.
The confirmation page and the email I just got imply the trial isn't even a thing, as a heads up? That's fine with me and it was clear their checkout was bugged anyway (with the double message explaining both the normal way you'd be charged and how you'd be charged after the trial), but it's weird to see a company not get this cleaned up before a big announcement like this.
It took about 10 minutes to show up for me.

I did a similar thing and got charged twice but the cancellation message said I would get a refund within 72 hours

This just seems like one of those 90s dotcom things where a guy basically takes money from investors and essentially hands it out to users hoping something magical happens.
It never does.
The site is on fire right now so probably best to wait 2-3 days, its a really good deal if you are gonna go see at least 1 movie a month. I've seen a grand total of 2 movies this year, but mighta gone to see more if I knew it was essentially covered by a pass.
I'd expect in 6-18 months this company to go bankrupt and shutdown, so maybe don't use your real credit card or something is the only thing I'd say. Buy a $100 visa gift card at your grocery store and give it that number.

Same here. Seems like they want you to enter the last 4 digits of the card they're supposed to send you before locations will show up in the app.

Weird, my account is set up and I can log in and everything, but I haven't gotten any email. Could just be because the site is getting hammered.

Its a legit company thats been around for years tho. I heard about them when they launched. Theyve had some price and acceptance struggles but they seem to have scored a big deal for investments this week that is tied to this subscriber growth strategy.

That's exactly what happened to me. It's asking for a moviepass number to look at anything.
Probably. It took a good half hour for me to get an email.

Huh. The Card tab in the app shows me a card number with all but the last four digits blocked out. Not seeing anywhere to enter that info, though.
The trial (if it exists) is only supposed to kick in once you get the card, I believe.

At work on mobile. Anyone able to check 42103 for theaters?

If I read it correctly, your trial and/or first month don't officially begin until you receive your card.
But is this acquisition a good thing? Could it not just be a move to liquidate the company to make some money, somehow?

It does. Why do people keep saying this? I'm looking at the theaters right now and haven't done anything other than go to their website.
The site sucks though so I'm assuming it's just not populating for you.

Signed up. Very, very excited.
when they first made this live they were hiding that map until you signed up, and even then it was only in the app

Shame that the card will not arrive until next week.
