MoviePass: Another Theatrical Run

It’s in my purse on the kitchen counter

 

haha

 

I enjoyed the movie. The large diet vanilla root beer and popcorn made me feel like shit for the entire day tho

 

You sneak a diet vanilla root beer into the movies or is that an offering?

 

Coke freestyle machine

 

The GOAT

 

I hate coke freestyle machines. The drinks taste all fucked up.

 

The Cherry Grape Fanta Zero tastes better than any other Cherry Grape Fanta Zero you can get from a fountian.

 

I can see the appeal if you are into weird drinks. But getting a coke that tastes a bit like cherry grape Fanta zero really sucks.

 

So Lady Bird or The Shape of Water, which should I see Saturday?

 

do you like Del Toro flicks? If so, go see Shape of Water

do you like actual good movies? If so, go see Lady Bird

 

Looks like the only Del Toro movie I have seen is Pan's Labyrinth. That was OK.

 

Still don’t get this tmb take

 

Only reason I dislike them is because most establishments with the freestyle machine only have one machine and you will inevitably end up waiting behind someone that takes as long to make a decision as Chidi from The Good Place

 

You don't think there's a taste difference?

 

If you position the cup right you can get more syrup than soda water and make that shit like McDonald's coke

 

Would rather not have to worry about encountering that one hardo who tells me I can't bring my cut up apples in.

 

Anyone have their subscription canceled?

 

Nope

 

Can you see the same movie twice yet?

 

I have, but maybe they felt sorry for me because I was taking my kids to see Paddington 2 for the second time. I googled it before trying a second time and there’s a tweet from moviepass’ account late last year saying you can now see the same movie twice.

 

Spoiler: History screenshot

 

I just want something entertaining.

 

You should see the rest! And going to get worse tomorrow, taking the kids to see Peter Rabbit!

 

Is this what I have to look forward to

 

Really enjoyed Lady Bird, thanks for the recommendation.

I knew I had heard the name Greta Gerwig from somewhere before. She was going to play the lead role in the original pilot for the How I Met Your Dad spinoff show that never got beyond pilot stage. Still kinda mad about that even though it likely would have been awful.

That's one hell of a directorial and head solo writer debut for her. Think she has found her calling.

 

Decided to see a couple movies this weekend. Yesterday was Jumanji. Like others have said I went in with no expectations and came away pleasantly surprised. Jack Black killed it imo.


Tonight I saw The Greatest Showman again. Loved it the first time and loved it the second time.


Zendaya

 

I saw i, Tonya today. That movie/her life (if accurate) are all kinds of fucked up.

Also, I'm going to have a ton of loyalty points at my theaters. I'm going to end up with a lot of free movie tickets.

 

I've been wondering about that. How does that work?

 

Yes also wanted to k ow how that works with movie pass

 

Don't see why it would be any different. In the theater's eyes they're getting their money regardless -- shouldn't matter what you use to pay for it. Why should it matter whether you're using cash or Movie Pass. But of course there are places like:

 

I usually buy my tickets through Fandango, and my Regal account is attached to that.

 

I ended up at a regal near me. They have a bowling alley, a bunch of pool tables, and numerous bars. Place is sweet

 

I've never used my rewards, so do you just show them your card on your phone, or what?

I've got a small popcorn, for my birthday, that expires today.

 

Went to see The Post last night. Pretty disappointed with it. I thought it fell flat and was a waste of talent.

 

I just signed up for the regal app yesterday. There's a code on every receipt that you can enter in after the fact. Going forward I'll just have them scan the barcode on my phone.

 

Looks boring to me

 

Yeah, I Just saw that

 

Or if you're a tea drinker and have to wait behind Chidi just to get some ice. Hate those things.
