So hard to find it was the first result

 

lol, I just meant I couldn't find it on my computer, which I suppose isn't surprising because it's a different computer from when D1P first started. 

cool beans

Had been using the bread turtle, but I couldn't find that pic anymore so I switch it and used the same one I use on twitter, a cropped version of one of my book covers.

Seriously, who didn't see the bad guy coming from the very second she appeared on the screen. I figured it was so obvious that they were just playing with us, but nope.

 

there was never any question from the moment she stepped on screen you knew she was the villain

I've been using it for a while. I probably do save some money, since the monthly fee is less than an average ticket around here. Mostly though, I see more movies with it than I would without it. I don't have to feel bad about going to see Tomb Raider in theaters because I didn't really spend any extra money to see it. I also am just a little bit more likely to see smaller films, just because it feels like "less of a risk." I'm not sure I'd have gone out of my way to see Mother! or The Rider, but since they were available at my local Movie Pass theater, I found the time and was very happy I did.

 

For me the worst part of it is that the two theaters near me that I'd very much prefer don't accept it. I also really wish I could buy a ticket online with it. There's a couple theaters in town that Movie Pass works with that way, but not the one near me.

 

It's kind of annoying that you now have to take a photo of your stub, but not that big of a hindrance. I'm also not a fan of the surge pricing they're about to introduce. I don't often use it during times I expect will have surge pricing, but if it does show up I'll be unhappy about it.

 

The big question with Movie Pass is how long they'll be around. They're running out of cash, the stock in their parent company has nosedived, they're getting more  competition, they might need as much as $1.2 Billion more capital before they could be profitable, and their new business model of buying stakes in movies and boosting the attendance seems doomed to fail. The whole thing is a scam being temporarily and artificially propped up by venture capital. If it survives the year I doubt it survives the next. At least by then there will probably still be other options.

yeah was reading about the new changes coming, you know this won't go over well, half their users completely lost their shit and are still losing their shit over no repeat viewings. 

Started working my way through The Rockford Files, even after all these years I still enjoy it.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

 

Somehow even dumber than the first movie and every character is a caricature.  There really isn't a plot, other than they used any excuse to string together the scenes where dinosaurs are in places they shouldn't be or doing things they wouldn't normally do.  

 

And they somehow, somehow even after the last one, wringed out even more nostalgia from of the first film, and of course re-hashed the same beats and surprises.

 

They've gone full Bay-Transformers.

saw it today and it was exactly what I expected

use it all the time

who else was expecting to see an old lady with a walker?

I haven't seen the film, but great review.

 

First off: Ocean's Twelve is better (at least equal to) than Ocean's Eleven. You can find a lot of articles from people whose view on that film has really reversed.

 

Separately, your review seems to match what I've read elsewhere.

have to disagree. I loved 11, loathed 12, and enjoyed 13.

as for 8, it was okay, somewhat enjoyable but nowhere near as good as the original....err I mean the original remake, lol

I really hope that they continue the Solo line at least with a sequel.

don't count on it.

I rarely see a movie more than once in the theater so the repeat viewing feature didn't really affect me when MoviePass removed it and it's not really enticing here at twice the price.

It's rare for me to see a movie twice in the theater as well, though it does happen, and indeed moviepass is working just fine for me, but I have to imagine the 3D/Imax option is enticing to some. 

I just hope 4 runs better on consoles than 3 did. 

none at the moment but I am looking forward to more news of the return of Intellivsion!!

I have to say even though I am happy with Moviepass, AMC's deal is pretty impressive. 3 movies a week, can see repeats, can see any available format (IMAX/3D)

read the story earlier today and I while I don't blame them, I think they really just need to take a deep breath, slow down, and rethink their strategy a bit. 

E3 without the boards was brutal

Pretty sure this was a trick to erase that thread bitching about The Last Jedi.
