Are you from the USA have you already heard of a cinema accepting bitcoins as payment. A post was made by Pete Rizzo at coindesk dated June 15, 2015 saying that Movie Tickets.com will bring bitcoin to over 900 US movie theaters all over the United States. I was glad to read such article but given the date I am not certain if they have already implemented it or the theaters in the USA are already started to accept bitcoins.

Another step closer to bitcoin acceptance by the regular people. The more deals as such are being made, the better it will be for bitcoin and for the world as well. And after many such news we've seen in the past few months, I am quite hopeful for prosperous future of crypto currencies.

If that would be available in other countries as well, bitcoin usage would definitely have a boost as it is clearly a very good business. I work for a company that is in a lifestyle segment and our malls have cinemas scattered across the nation, and I hope the management would definitely look into crypto currencies as payment options, aside from the now trending entertainment reloadable card that is being accepted.

Back in 2015 this was big news, but things might have changed a bit since then. I know some merchants who started accepting Bitcoin has stopped, because there were not enough business to support for it. If we want services and merchants to continue supporting Bitcoin, we will have to use Bitcoin for their services.

Can anymore say if they still pay for movies with bitcoins?

Well that is sad news, I thought that they have continued the trade. Maybe it is just to early for them to implement such actions since as you mentioned there are no customers or clients that year that has access and holds bitcoin. But possibly this year it will be realized but not on America but in Japan since they already adopted bitcoin as a form pf payment in exchange for services and goods in their country.

I`ll pay with bitcoins in some cinema and watch the entire movie.
After the end of the movie the transaction would still be unconfirmed. Grin
Anyway, i wish Netflix and Hulu to accept bitcoins.

This is the coolest thing that I have read in all day, I have to admit that I got very excited when I read that. I had never thinking implement Bitcoin as payment method for movies,  would never have occurred to me. This is bring Bitcoin to people that probably not even heard about btc ever.

I think it is not that cool, in fact I am expecting these to happen. I think it will be really happening these days, but what I am thinking is how long will I be waiting so I can get my ticket and how long will they wait for my transaction/payment. With these little by little, other who don't know bitcoin will be knowing it, I just hope they'll be also attracted to it.

Perhaps in some developed countries has applied such payments. But I'm not sure in many developing countries it can be applied for now, maybe for the future.

Recently came across an article where a corporate firm working on aircraft parking named skypark have started to accept bitcoin around the country in most of the major airports. Possibly they have stated to start the service throughout the entire airports in the country.

none of these merchant services will make a bean. who would be spending bitcoin now? who would be paying a $3 bitcoin fee to buy a ticket to a movie? something fundamental will need to change for any of this to worth anyone's while. i expect the amount of places you can spend bitcoin to carry on contracting.

It's no surprise when it comes to the United States, the United States is a developed nation, they soon accept bitcoin and use it in their lives, America is one of the world's leading bitcoin foundations. Anyway, this is also a good thing, I hope it appears in my country.

there are a lot of these things, indicating real adoption out there. and it is actually a good thing for those who keep repeating bitcoin is just store of value to take their heads out of the sand and look around them.

of course these things won't last long if the fees keep on rising like this. nobody is going to pay for anything with bitcoin if it is going to cost them a lot. we may not yet be there but we surely are headed that way.

Hope it will be implemented to our country soon this can be more useful not to convert any bitcoin into fiat to us to use to buy ticket and if bitcoin can will be more growth then bitcoin will be more implemented on our country. Also i can see the real future of bitcoin that soon enough supermarket will accept bitcoin too.

Can say that this is a new step of bitcoin, although not too significant. But with many progresses , the bitcoin will be used more widely. Once the bitcoin is used as other money, i think the bitcoin system and users will have these positive redirects, which will be expected.

We would love to see this happen? I'm love going to cinema and watching movies in HD or 3D and I'm willing to pay premium just to watch the movie. If this this happen or happening now, then I will be happy and take advantage of me paying with bitcoins. This is really a step closer for bitcoin to be really mass adopted.
