Please explain.

Download the Coke Freestyle app (and create an account)
You can create and save custom mixes and just scan the QR code on the machine to make them automatically.
You also can earn rewards, like right now get a free movie ticket after two "pours" (only one per day counts) at AMC between 9/10-10/31, and there's an Amazon "Pour 5, get $5" which, crap, I just realized I can't complete because tomorrow is the last day and I only have 2 so far.

Even if you dont purchase a drink, though, you can get credit if you just stop by the machine and scan the QR code. (Note: I think you need to proceed to select a drink and then just quickly tap pour for it to count)

I'm already all over this one. I used the card for the first time today for American Made and used my Regal card with it and got my points.
Will try it at an AMC tomorrow to see how that goes.
I, too have 2/5 of the way to get the Amazon credit and won't be able to finish it this month but can still earn the AMC free ticket by Oct. 31.

I thought I read you can only see each movie once, or can you watch the same movie multiple times as long as it's a separate day?

Any movie once a day.

I'm considering signing up. Now that the AMC rewards are automatically taken out though, what are the chances that the rewards get taken off before you can swipe your moviepass card at the kiosk?

they do get used first, but arent they only used if you have "activated" them? I would just wait and activate them right before you want to use them, like for concessions or an Imax 3d ticket.

Is this card worth it? I mainly go to IMAX movies or premium formats. I did just pay $6 to see Battle of the Sexes though yesterday which was awful imo. Does this still work with theater rewards too? I usually go to Goodrich Quality Theaters or Classic Cinemas.

Question, is it SEE 1 movie per day, or order/pay for 1 movie per day?

Wondering if I can purchase a ticket on AMC's website today for tomorrow, then purchase another one tomorrow. Not sure if this is allowed or against the rules.

You can only use the card to see one movie a day. It loads the funds on once.

You can only choose a movie for the current day.

I can't use this card to buy a ticket on AMC's website?

That's a decent restriction but I bet there's people who use this to see movies every day. Makes me wonder how there's a profit in this...

By the way, it's been a few pages since I last posted this, and it seems to need repeating

I'm just glad my local theatre supports this since there's so many kinds of movie cash they just ignore. $10 a month is perfect for me to go to the movies 4-8 times a month. Ordered my card last Saturday, hope it gets here soon, would love to use it to see JLA a bunch of times.

Don't the kiosks let you buy tickets for multiple days?

No, you have physically purchase the ticket for a showtime the day-of. The system is location based, so you have to be within 100 yards of the theater in order to check in and have money loaded onto the card. You then proceed to buy ticket at the box office or kiosk.

The only exception to all of this is if you have a theater that supports e-tickets, but that is limited to only a few areas/chains.

They don't need to support it. The MoviePass card works like a pre-paid debit card, it's not a "pass" per-se since the theaters get the full cost the ticket.
