Moviepass coming back. Don't know if it will be as good as it was before.

Got an email>>

We are so excited to announce that we are beginning our launch sequence to bring MoviePass back. For those of you who don't know MoviePass was sold back in 2017 to a private equity group and due to mismanagement subsequently closed its doors. Last year I, one of the original Founders, bought the company back with the plan to relaunch it. Time Magazine did a great piece that does a wonderful job of explaining the sequence of events that lead to this point.

Being on the waitlist will be the only way to be able to sign up for the service in the foreseeable future. This Thursday, August 25, 2022 we will open the waitlist at 9a ET at MoviePass.com There is no cost to join the waitlist. Space will be limited and on a first come first serve basis. The engagement from the waitlist will help us to determine which markets we will open first and thereafter.
Each person who joins the waitlist will receive 10 friend invites that will activate when they sign up for the service. If you do not make it on the waitlist the only way you will be able to join in the future is to receive an invite from someone.
We are very excited to get back up and running and look forward to seeing you all at the movies soon.

What will the price of the new service be?

- There will be 3 pricing tiers. Prices will vary depending on each market but the general prices will be $10, $20, $30. Each level will get a certain amount of credits to be able to use towards movies each month. More details to come.

This script is gold. Just hit try 300 on the script, along with me clicking on the submit button on my computer and phone for the last hour. This is crazy.
Worked on try 368 for me!

I'm jealous. I'm over 600 now. Wondering if I did it wrong.

Edit: finally worked!

If anyone is interested, here is a PowerShell script you can run. It will just run continuously and try every 5 seconds until successful. I used this today and was successfully registered after about attempt 15 or 20:

Maybe they changed something. The Submit button now has some white line that gets longer and then you can't press submit again unless you refresh. No error either.

Oh, maybe it went through. I see it says "Thank you for joining the waitlist!" now Stick Out Tongue

Now that's gangsta! Never thought I'd find anything like a PowerShell script in a Slickdeals comment and then actually succeed with it! Got in after 120 tries running it in ISE! Respect my dude! Repped!

I manually spammed the submit for like 10 minutes an hour ago and kept getting an error message. Just tried it again and it worked the first time I hit submit. Same for my wife's email- first time hitting submit went through. Maybe they fixed the website?

Don't hit the refresh button. Just let it ride. You'll either get an error or acceptance.
