what actually happened there, Honest Trailer still exists?
@TheNamekianClown6 ай бұрын
@benzaiten933 After covid they basically only did Honest Trailers Commentaries for a few years. It was down to just Spencer, Lon and Danielle, and due to the strikes Danielle stopped being in them as well, until a few months ago when those just stopped happening too. Now they literally only do Honest Trailers weekly and some other things occasionally like By The Numbers, and nothing else. No on screen personalities at all. I think a large part of it was Roth, Dan, Joe and Billy leaving in relative quick succession. No offense to Spencer and Lon but they were always the more cynicle members, and it became a drag watching only them and you could feel the change in the Honest Trailers themselves too.

There are some channels that do something that vaguely looks like this, but they're not as good. Drinker's After Hours is just a bunch of middle-aged white guys complaining that movies have too many black people and girls in them, and the John Campea Show is dominated by John and only becomes interesting when he lets Robert Meyer Burnett talk, and the other guys on the show are dumb as rocks. There's no actual discussion.

How can someone even make a definitive MoviePass documentary without featuring Dan? Literally just splicing in chunks of a video made this way would add so much. It was indeed a crazy time. EDIT: Also, anyone reading this: AMC Stubs A-List is 1000% worth it, and is everything I think MoviePass wished it had been. I have a weirdly strong brand loyalty to A-List… I saw TENET 23 times in IMAX back in 2020 for basically $40 just because A-List is so fairly priced and easy. Recommended.

Great deep dive into this story. Movie Pass holds a special place in my heart. I met my wife in the Fall of 2017, and as a young broke couple, MoviePass gave us cheap dates on the daily, and after movies, we would sit in the theater and just talk about the movie, which led to discussions about life. We saw 64 movies in theaters during 2017-2018 and out of this environment, we fell in love, and got married in 2018. Today, I love my life, my marriage, my wife, and our 3 children. MoviePass dates were somewhat foundational for us. Thanks Mitch Lowe!

Hey Dan! I'm an avid watcher of the channel, I'm not from the USA. I used to watch Fandom and SJU before it because I like movies and loved the discussions and games you all did about Hollywood. The moviepass saga is what made me a fan of your work. Your analytical approach and ability to communicate your theories about how a movie over/under performed it's budget and narrative behind it is what appealed to me. So while I wasn't a user of moviepass and didn't benefit from their ridiculous prices, I did discover you! Love what you do! Your passion for the industry is clear in the content you make. Hope you continue what you're doing and are able to add more segments that you've thought of but couldn't because of presently limited resources!

the movie pass saga is the gift that keeps on giving. I was an avid watcher of SJ/SJU and remember the reporting when MP first launched and I saw the interview with Mitch and all the subsequent reporting. The biggest contribution MP made was the years of entertainment value in witnessing this saga. I have no idea what is going on with SJ/Fandom these days. The only thing left seems to be Honest Trailers. We're not even getting the commentaries anymore, which was my favorite part of HT. Is Roth still interested in film? I liked the dynamic you two had when doing reviews. Would be neat if you did the occasional partnering with Roth or Lons or someone else to have a good discussion on a film.

I have my own anecdotes with friends - debating with one friend if it was a scam, seeing one friend's app crash while mine worked, reacting to Chloe from Barketing as it happened....! And it was really great to see the old SJU clips. Another blip of Movie Pass was how there was a time when they were trying to get so many people to sign up because they wanted to collect data and then sell it to movie theaters or movie production companies (whoever would buy), but no one would buy unless they had enough people - but then no one would buy because those theaters and production companies already have that data. Movie Pass was always DOA, but it was a glorious time for the consumer.

I got it fairly early on and used it to watch so many movies. I suffered through the ticket verification process, which was always a mess and I always had to submit the picture at least twice. After like a month of that it just stopped working entirely and the only movies it would show me were movies I had zero interest in so I canceled it pretty quickly after that. Chloe from Barketing will always be iconic and you're right that nothing will ever match the pure insanity of living through all of that.
