Beds for theaters in your area, if they accept Mastercard then they accept MoviePass.

:O This is good......very good news....... Will sign up at the end of the month then! Thanks!

LOL sorry I was using voice-to-text. Not sure how it heard "as" as "Beds"

Let us know how your first experience goes!

Trav606 · 08-25-2017, 07:20 PM

Can this be used for advanced tickets or does it have to be for a same day showing?

Same day only.

I know the "valid only at MoviePass theaters" wording is to keep people from trying to load up funds for a ticket then spending it at like Walmart or something, but I can see that causing issues at theaters with people trying to refuse it.

LynxFX · 08-25-2017, 08:40 PM

Got mine today as well. For those keeping track I signed up on the 15th at 10:30am PST.

Will give it a shot tonight. I haven't purchased a ticket at the box office in probably 10 years as I only go to assigned seating theaters. So this will probably only be used during off days when the showings aren't packed. Otherwise I'll just buy a seat on fandango, pick my seat then refund it when I get to the theater to release that seat. I'll eat the service fee. Overall, still a good value.

The same as for everyone else. You have a separate subscription card for them, and you pay for their ticket with that one.

and yes, all showtimes are available in advance for the current day, you just can't do it the previous day or earlier.

Batman90 · 08-25-2017, 08:57 PM

How long does it take to get the cards?

Pounder · 08-25-2017, 08:58 PM

Typically 5-7 business days but if you order one now they said it's going to arrive between Sept 6-10 at the very earliest, possibly later, due to the influx of customers this past week

On Wednesday morning the app didn't show a CC number for me, and I didn't see local theate listing till after I updated the app that evening. Yesterday I noticed I was given a card number with an expiration date of 8/17/24. So, I guess that means my card was mailed. I haven't received it yet, but a little surprised to see the updated card info since I didn't sign up till Friday evening, when I gave up waiting for the PayPal method to work.

Britnasty · 08-25-2017, 09:58 PM

For those that have the app working now for them, is Leap! not showing up under your theatres showings? No showtimes are listed at all whatsoever for any of my local theatres.

I didn't intend on seeing it anyways but I'll find it a tad troublesome if random movies aren't available for viewing. I'm sure its only a fluke but just curious.

Also funnily enough, looks like MoviePass does have to make some concessions with allowing viewers to view films on premium formats. Two of my local theatres are only showing Birth of the Dragon on their Superscreens and those showings are available for purchase in the app.

Chaotic · 08-25-2017, 09:58 PM

Didn't get my card today, hopefully tomorrow.

None for me either.

CelluloidPal · 08-26-2017, 03:01 AM

I got my welcome e-mail on the 17th and I'm curious to know how those who got their cards already if they got them via package or by regular mail to know what to look for.
