MoviePass Now Offering Unlimited Movies A Month For $50 or Less, Depending On Where You Live
A couple weeks ago, I wrote about how MoviePass was trying out new "tiered" forms of membership in an effort to pull more people into their service. Engadget says after weeks of testing, this is the new breakdown for people who wish to join the service. Depending on the size of your city, you may be put in one of 3 "tiers" which affects your pricing:
- Tier 1 markets: $15 for 2 movies; $22 for 3 movies; and $40 for unlimited.
- Tier 2 markets: $18 for 2 movies; $27 for 3 movies; and $45 unlimited.
- Tier 3 markets: $21 for 2 movies; $31 for 3 movies; $50 for unlimited.
This is where you learn that movie theaters charge different prices depending on where you live. I learned recently and was shocked when the matinee price for L.A. was what I pay for the weekend charge in Indianapolis! Back to the matter at hand, depending on who you are, this could be a sweet deal.
If you're somebody who typically goes to a lot of movies with friends or solo, $50 is a steal even in the highest market. If I were to go to 2 movies a month with my wife, I guarantee we would spend over $30 when it's all said and done, so that also seems like an attractive offer.
Overall, the whole thing sounds much more attractive than the rumored $99 a month unlimited plan! Will you be picking up a pass?
