It's true. I used to have put movies into 3 categories.
1. I'll see by myself
2. I'll see if someone else wants to.
3. Nope
With MoviePass, my friend group and I have been able to to add a 4th option to that list: I'll see it if it looks interesting enough and I have nothing better to do.
When I saw the movie Gringo, I got an email from Moviepass asking "Would you have seen this movie without MoviePass?"
- bemurphy 8y agoI'm with you on option 4. I used to spot a movie I wanted to see, and then see it. Now I want to see a movie, and then pick the movie to see. I can't think of too many products I've experienced such a behavioral shift from. I'd change the title too and drop "moviegoing habits" to simply "habits". I'm probably out on average 2 nights more a week than I used to be. I'll stop on the way home from standing appointments to grab dinner and a movie, just to wait out traffic. I don't think I'd ever done this before in my life. If I owned a restaurant near a theater, I'd figure out how to be a Moviepass affiliate, in a heartbeat. Assuming they can survive, of course.
- lykr0n 8y agoFor me, it's something to do and a excuse to get together for a afternoon. None of us can feel like "shit, what a waste of money" with MoviePass. It's kinda like if a bowling alley offered all you can bowl for $14.99/month. Do we really want to go bowling every week? Not really, but it's an excuse to hang out outside of work/bars.
