No. Sinemia has always had month to month options. There's a tab above the price label that you have to click on and it adjusts to the monthly plan. I've been with them fr almost a year now and I've been enjoying the 30 movies for $30 plan for the last 3 months at $29.99 per month. In fact, that promotion was supposed to be only for three months, but in my account it says my membership will renew once again for $29.99 in February.

Again, if you live within 10 miles of an AMC theatre and like going to the movies a few times per month, do yourself a favor and sign up for A-List. It's the best thing going for movie-goers. Even with the small price increase in some regions, it's still so worth if you enjoy going to the movies. There is absolutely no reason to support this joke of a company anymore.

I hate AMC and my nearest one is at a mall, so fuck that noise. At least with my MP card at the current rate, I can still see films at my local Laemmle's. I just need to see one film at my Laemmle's and I've pretty much made back my money for the month.

MoviePass hasn’t been available for me in the late afternoon/evening. If it stays like this I’ll finally cancel (after about four years!)
I guess I’ll try disputing the last charge with my credit card as well.

I'm shocked they haven't been sued yet. People have probably asked lawyers and the lawyers probably realize there's no money to be made.

The most promising thing about that article is the part where they talk about using the platform to allow theater chains to launch their own subscription programs. But that does nothing for actual Moviepass subscribers. And if I were a theater chain (or at least a decently sized one) there's no way I'd give up all that data to them.
Other than that I still don't see a valid business plan, nor do I see why their approval rating somehow went up or their claim that subscribers are coming back. In fact they are removing more eticketing theaters, which is basically the only reason to subscribe.
I just looked at their stock price, well below a penny now.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I cancelled MoviePass back in September. they've never bothered me since, and I really don't feel like getting caught up in another vicious cycle of rule changes, etc.
I have Regal Crown rewards (free) and AMC Stubs Premiere (15.99 a year), I get free stuff and the occasional free movie from both. I'm okay with that.

Yeah I thought that too. Why spend $16/month on AMC Premiere that's really only a point program when he could have spent $4 more and gotten 3 movies per week?

Oops forgot it was $16/year.
You still have to buy tickets with premiere. You make your money back in like 2 tickets on A-List vs. Premiere which you still have to spend money on to accumulate points to get free tickets.

I have a Cinema Cafe reserve recliner theater about 5 minutes walking from my house, a 12 screen Regal about 5 minutes drive, and the AMC is about 12 minutes away. I get a senior discount everywhere anyway, and the wife and I can’t always get out to the AMC, and I really don’t have $20.00 a month for one chain. We actually hit Regal more often. Movie Pass was awesome on the annual plan, till it wasn't.

Dear Loyal MoviePass Customers,
We know you are as excited about MoviePass as us! We want to ensure that you continue to enjoy the same great benefits as before, so we have undertaken a new marketing strategy. In an effort to provide quality customer service and maintain the value of MoviePass, we have recently made moves to position MoviePass as “the best kept secret in show businesss”. For this reason, you may notice that we are no longer advertising on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange. This move will remove distractions and allow us to focus on our loyal customers and our core business models, including producing our own blockbusters such as our new Al Pacino film!
We still invite you to expand on your MoviePass enthusiasm and join the proud ranks of MoviePass shareholders. Our shares provide a great value and can be purchased over the counter at most Dollar General stores or through offers that will be sent to random fax machines.
Again, we are still here and still taking you to all the movies you want to see whenever you want to see them with no restrictions.
Begging you to keep sending in money,
The MoviePass Marketing Team (aka, Mitch Lowe contemplating hooking a garden hose hooked to my car exhaust)
