there was a service called sinemia that offered 2 movies a month (1 VIP/dbox/Imax, 1 regular) for like 5.99-9.99 a month (depended on package) but you had to pay a year upfront. they went belly up pretty quick, i didn't even get my full year out of them and they weren't going to give me a refund for the remain ~4-5 months or so i had left. but i did feel like i got my money's worth since i watched a whole bunch of IMAX movies in that time.
a sub service to watch movies pushes you to watch at least 2 movies a month. price of an IMAX movie (generally only watch movies in IMAX or UltraAVX) is already 20$ so it seems to be worth it imo. I just hope they don't gut the rewards program.
guess going to the movies was a pre-early 2000s thing. ppl are becoming more and more recluse these days with all these services that keep you in your own gilded cage. yes going out means you have to deal with a jackass once in awhile but that's part of life everyone's go a reason to why they are behaving the way they are at that moment.
i still go to movies to catch them on opening week so the internet doesn't ruin them with spoilers. now-a-days with reserved seating you're never really going to have a problem getting your seat anyways. hell i'll even treat myself and get a poutine or hotdog from time to time those items don't seem to be too overly priced imo and you're getting scene points with every purchase. just stay away from popcorn, soft drinks, and candy if you feel like you're being gouged at the concession stand.
