hmmm im not sure what to think of this exactly though this would be interesting this would get me to see movies i otherwise wouldnt want to see the most then others

but i doubt it will come to canada though sigh

It's a very interesting idea. Could be something to watch out for. Though, at that price point it's nothing that will lure me in. No way do I see 5+ movies a month to justify this. They need to get that price point down somehow and then it could be a better deal.

Agreed. Great idea but the price isn't right at all because like you said, there aren't really 5+ movies that interest me in any given month.

I'd like to say that I'd be willing to see 2-3 a month though so maybe a 29.99/34.99 price point and those months that are blockbuster heavy you really get your money worth. Something like that.

Even at 29.99 though that's $360 a year which is WAY more than I pay to see movies in theaters. The $50 a month is $600/year which is just insane to me.

If i get to a theater once every 3 or 4 months, thats odd for me. I have different reasons though and it all boils down to cost. HOWEVER, $50 per month wouldn't be all that bad during the summer months IF i had the time...Which I don't.

For movie goers here though, that might not be bad. It's at least $12+ per movie here.

This would be an awesome idea minus the limitations.

JL4682d ago

I'm more concerned about the price point. But would like to see that "no more than 1 movie a day" limitation go away (I'm ok with the "one time for one movie" thing).

-MD-4682d ago (Edited 4682d ago )

A ticket for a movie where I am is 8.75 so I'd have to watch 6 movies/month just to get me money worth.

Just as an example of movies that I'd want to see:

May (5) - Thor, Bridesmaids, Pirates, Hangover 2, Kung Fu Panda 2

June (5) - X-Men: First Class. Super 8, Green Lantern, Cars 2, Bad Teacher

July (3) - Transformers 3, Horrible Bosses, Captain America

So with the subscription I'd be paying $150 but if I were to buy individual tickets for each of these movies I'd be spending under $120. Definitely not worth it for me at this time.

This is not a good deal at all especially the time of the year when they don't have any movies coming out that count. You can go a month or two without any movies showing that are worth going to pay at the theater.

15 movies with the Oedipus complex.

The term “Oedipus complex” Sigmund Freud introduced. The name of the phenomenon is based on the Greek myth of Oedipus, who unwittingly and unknowingly kills his father Laius and married Jocasta mother. Austrian psychiatrist used it to refer to conscious or unconscious sexual desire of the child to the parent of the opposite sex.
