How many movies have you see in 2011

[Biojex]

Thanks! Yeah, this has been a good year for me and films that I like. Hell, there are still films coming out that I will be seeing so I should probably end around 30-35. AMC has their stubs program and it didn't start until around March/April for every $100 you spend on tickets/concessions you get $10 to spend. I think my account says I've earned since then $70 in money from them.

Interesting...I did not know this existed. Thanks for bringing that to my attention

They always want me to get one. The theater knows me well...haha.

 

[Bannister]

So you buy expensive BRs to go see movies for less at the theatres. Nice.

btw How are you John? Miss you man. Hope you're still keeping fit!

Most of the blu rays were like $10.00 with a $10.00 movie ticket. Then I would usually see two movies with that ticket. Some were even cheaper. I picked up all 4 X-Men movies for $7.99 with $12.00 tickets to see First Class on each one. It is pretty much a no brainer if I am planning to see the movie anyway.

I used to have the movie watcher card, but didn't get the stubs card when they switched over since I rarely go to my local AMC anymore. The local theatre chain here has a great rewards program similar to stubs which works out pretty good. You get a point for every dollar you spend up to 30 a day and you get a reward at every 45 points. The rewards start over once you hit 360 points. At 315 you get 2 free movie tickets and at 360 you get 2 tickets, plus two large drinks, and a large popcorn. So if you go a lot, it really pays off.

Figured, you were always a brilliant consumer.

Just never had much for style and that couch, get a new one!

 

[The Josh]

Oh I am sorry Josh. I'll behave. For you... for now.

Next minute, I can't say.

I do want to see Fright Night and that sequel to Gorillas in the Mist that came out last week.

Thanks Eli.

No problem. Its a pretty sweet program. It costs $12 to join but if you have the money on your card you can use that to pay for your membership.

The AMC's around here are the only ones I go to mostly. The others tend to be a babbysitting place or way too many freaking teenagers. Thats a pretty sweet program though!

 

[The Entity]

- New Kids Turbo
- Tron Legacy
- True Grit
- Sucker Punch
- Thor (2x)
- Fast Five (2x)
- On Stranger Tides
- The Hangover Part II
- X-Men First Class
- Transformers 3
- Captain America
- Horrible Bosses
- Rise of the Planet of the Apes

So 15 visits to the theatre so far!

AMC used to be my go to place, until the local chain built the new Imax closer to me. The other nice thing about that rewards card was they switched computer systems a couple years ago and had to redo their program. When you turned in your old card they gave you a couple free movie tickets, drinks and popcorn. Then when you signed up for the new program they gave you 200 points automatically and the rewards to go with it. On top of that, when you use those Hollywood Movie Money tickets off the blu rays, you get points on those purchases since they are treated like a credit card transaction. I love free stuff.

 

[The Josh]

Damn thats pretty nice! Yeah, thats the one bad thing about AMC is those movie money deals are worthless there. I have two free tickets to Cap that I won't be using because of it. I hate the other theater places around here. Though, the last time I saw Cap I saw it for $5 and ate for free (had enough money to get this awesome sampler and a large coke $20) Which was a better deal than if I had used the free ticket at the closer theater.

As for ticket stubs, Warner Bros. has a program where you send pics of your ticket stubs, and you earn points for each that can be used for Blu's and other merchandise. You also earn points for entering digital copy codes for Blu's and DVD's that you buy.
