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)
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
