Yes but to the average dipshit on the street who can't do the math his idea will seem awesome.

Hi. We already have that in france ( at around 20 euros per month, bit less for 2 people - single price adult ticket being (I take the price in paris were I lived) 11.5€ ( +1€ if 3D, +1€ if booked seated ) . So it cost just over 1 movie per month.

And i can tell that it's not only about the price.
Sure, at the very beginning i was student - lot of free time - i was using my card to the max, so that made complete financial sense with about 4 movies a week. Then i ended up having no time for it, but I still kept the card. Why ? Because it allows you to take more risks with the movie you go see. You can go for this obscure romanian movie with 1 review on imdb, and 1 line synopsis. And even if it end up being bad, you don't feel so bad about it because you didn't technically paid 11.5 for it.

I've seen tons of awesome movies i'd never had seen if I had to pay full price for it.

Also : free booking, line-cutting, free tickets for friends (on a point acquisition basis) ... being a subscribers usually brings tons of little + .

Obviously, the advantages goes away if your cinemas options are limited. If you live countryside with 1 cinema playing only the 3 most current blockbusters ... but this kind of subscription cinema may push cinemas into taking more risks in their programmation also, knowing at least part of their subscribers will come to see for free any movie , out of sheer curiosity .

This may be your problem, quit online, go in real life. Meet with muslims, meet with refugees. Travel a little, that never hurts.

Also there is no such thing as "NOGO zones". And i'll quote wikipedia on this topic.

In January 2015, after the Charlie Hebdo shooting in Paris, various American media, including the news cable channels Fox News and CNN, described the existence of no-go zones across Europe and in France in particular, or featured guests that referred to them. In some cases, the French areas termed "sensitive urban zones" were described as no-go zones. Both networks were criticized for these statements, and anchors on both networks later apologized for the characterizations. The mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, said that she intended to sue Fox News for its statements.

Main point here being "Fox news" and "CNN", two networks that extensively prooved accross the years that they barely know where Europe is.
