    Please note Expiry is 13 November 2012, so you have 1 month to use it. Not many blockbuster release during this period. Miss out on Twilight, Skyfall and the rest of Christmas releases.

      There are still plenty of movies playing now… It's not as if the cinemas have shut down…

        Whether there's anything worth seeing depends on your personal tastes, but looking at the current movies and coming release list, there are definitely very few "big" releases (in terms of current and expected ticket sale numbers) out before the vouchers expire.

        Probably why this deal is on now.

      Killing them softly, savages, judge dredd and PA4 are good enough for me.

      Nothing in the T&C excluding saturdays, so yes they can be used on Saturday nights

  • slowmo on 11/10/2012 - 11:24

    i wonder when will there be an AMV deal? :(

    Great price, but just a small warning: there aren't many big or notable movies coming out before the vouchers expire on November 13th.

    So before you decide how many you want, check what's on at the moment:

      I don't think this is a valid neg given you're not basing it on a better deal being available but your personal opinion.

        Look, whoever negged me here, you don't understand how OzBargain works.

        You've silenced my dissent, my neg is now gone. Hooray for democracy. But the result is, the 90% of OzBargainers who don't read the comments won't realise that there are any caveats to this deal.

        I negged it to warn people that this deal has a bit of a "gotcha"; when you actually look at the amazingly short expiry period, and the surprisingly poor movie list, it's not nearly as good a deal as you'd assume.

        But now the deal is a perfect [+41] [-0], a badly misleading score for a deal with a catch this significant.

        And my comment, helpful in telling people what the catch is (and completely true), is also invisible for most people.

        Don't neg comments without looking into it yourselves, kids. You're screwing your fellow OzBargainers.

          Thanks for pointing out the down side as you see it.
          Personally, I see the deal as a cheap movie ticket.

          If people are stupid enough to buy tickets without considering the movies showing and expiry date of tickets, they are going to have bigger problems than wasting $9.50

        • Skinnerr on 13/10/2012 - 03:08

          Its not a catch, its just a fact. When you buy milk and it has an epiry of 10 days, is that a catch? Or just a an agreement you enter when you purchase the milk. If it expires before 'any good friends can come over and have tea with you' does that make it bad milk?

          Think about it. Negging a $9.50 movie deal when its $12 on tightarse tuesday is stupid.

    $18 for a movie ticket is criminal. I haven't paid more than $10 for a ticket ever!!! I can't believe people spend that sort of money (+ overpriced rubbish snacks) to go to the movies.

    • ItsMeAgro on 11/10/2012 - 16:00

      $18 is about the standard price in Sydney. More for 3D and "Xtremescreen" etc.

      :(

        It's the price of online piracy

        • backslashio on 11/10/2012 - 19:24

          Then the US should be 10 times higher than our rate. They only pay a maximum of $10 I'm pretty sure

        • ItsMeAgro on 12/10/2012 - 10:15

          I think it was sarcasm. It's about 10 bucks over the border in QLD too.

    Just want to say thank to the OP. My wife wants to go see Taken 2 this Saturday so this is perfect timing. Just ordered 2, already received the vouchers via email. Thanks again.

  • fusion17 on 11/10/2012 - 12:12

    Ergh, you have to print out the ticket. Would rather pay $1 more to not do this.
    Seriously what happened to reducing carbon footprint

    • GreatWhiteHunter on 11/10/2012 - 12:19

      So the footprint is less if the cinema prints it rather than you?

      • roughana on 11/10/2012 - 12:32
        +2

        Yes because this is not a ticket, but a voucher that has to be exchanged for a ticket.

    • jv on 11/10/2012 - 14:34

      just use the Passbook app on your iphone

      • ThadtheChad on 11/10/2012 - 17:32

        Doesn't it say it needs to be printed. I'm really interested if that does work. jv, will that work or were you just trolling (no offense intended).

        • fusion17 on 12/10/2012 - 10:01

          What you need to know about Hoyts $9.50 Red Hot Movie vouchers:

          They must be printed and exchanged at the box office or candy bar in any Hoyts cinema in Australia;

          Doesnt say 'present/show the voucher'

        • slowmo on 12/10/2012 - 10:51

          you can always exchange your phone for the offer. :)

      Can't use it on Saturdays after 5PM though! Or at least not for taken 2 this weekend, or on sunday for that matter!

  • DEvok on 11/10/2012 - 15:03

    These tickets would do nicely for LOOPER and TAKEN 2, both great movies with storyline, just to bad already seen it at V max event cinemas. Hoyt's is way cheaper.

    Cheapest is rydges code On evenatcinemas which still makes it 11.10, hoytes is $1.10 cheaper, add that up for a year!

    I used to buy my hoytes tickets from MBF which is $10.50 each, and considering that u cant use them on Saturdaysnatter 5pm in the conditions, but staff don't really care and still proccess it, being doing it for years…

    Pasting this here since it was a very important comment by mgowen in relation to the deal that got negged because of the neg vote.. The Vote might be questionable but the mgowen's comment is 100% valid…

    I think there's enough warnings about "Oh, there's no decent blockbuster movies on atm" guys :P

    There's still some watchable & good stuff, its not a total boredom fest of screenings
