Everyone’s favorite movie theater streaming service is coming back next month:
The company, which made a huge splash in the film world with its absurdly low price for a movie every single day in almost any movie theater, has already gone completely out of business once. In, the original MoviePass filed for bankruptcy, and a nation of bargain-minded moviegoers mourned.
But now the service is returning, after its original cofounder, Stacy Spikes, reacquired his creation from its prior parent company, Helios and Matheson Analytics. Per The waitlist for this latest MoviePass opens at 9AM ET this Thursday. Anyone can sign up for five days on “a first come, first served basis.” Signing up doesn’t cost anything.Once the waitlist closes, the initial group of beta users will be notified on Labor Day and will be offered three price tiers to choose from.
That $10 a month MoviePass became a massive hit because it was absurdly cheap and easy to use. We’ll have to see how these tiers shake out, and how hard or simple it is to use the “credits.” That description above makes the new system sound a little complicated. Do subscribers want to keep track of credits and do math to go to the theater? I guess we’ll find out next month.
