0:00.0	Hello and welcome to episode 155 of the Thinking ElsAP podcast in Vienna, Virginia. I'm Ben Olson and with me is Nathan Fox in Los Angeles.
0:18.6	How's it going Nathan?
0:19.6	I'm okay. I'm mourning the loss of movie pass.
0:23.0	Wait, what happened? I didn't realize that movie pass is gone.
0:26.0	movie pass is significantly diminished.
0:30.0	It is not the past it once was.
0:34.0	So wait, what happened?
0:35.0	It's half the past it once was.
0:37.0	It's less than half the past it once was.
0:39.0	It's, it ain't shit.
0:41.0	Now.
0:42.0	Well, so they've just added restriction on top of restriction on top of restriction on top of
0:46.8	restriction.
0:47.8	So one of the first things they did was they limited it to three movies a month instead of you know one movie per day
0:55.2	it went down to three movies per month which still is a bargain for ten bucks right
1:00.2	i mean one movie ticket depending where you go can be 15 or 20 dollars so yeah it's that that part if it was just three movies a month that would be fine but it's also now they're limiting it to a certain number like they're telling you what

1:30.0	And so now when I log on to the app, there's like nothing at my two local theaters that I can see or that I want to see.
1:37.0	So I haven't been able to use it once in the last couple weeks and I'll keep it for another few weeks and see if I get any use of it at all but if not it's looking like I'm going to cancel it. I mean it was too good to be true.
1:50.0	Yeah, yeah. And I loved it for a while. Hopefully I will continue to go to the movies a lot as a result of this, but I'm just going to have to buy tickets. Like I went and saw Black clansmen the other night. That movie was fucking awesome. Highly recommended.
2:04.7	Spike Lee film really, really great. But yeah, I had to buy a ticket for it. It was a shame.
2:10.0	Yeah. That's interesting because I have it and the last time I tried to use it, you're right, it was restricted in terms of times and I just didn't use it and I guess it's dead now.
