    www.fandango.com
    www.movietickets.com

    For movietickets.com get a Movie Watcher card. With that there is no service charge (normally a dollar) and you get stuff like free popcorn and whatnot.

    For both, get 1 adult ticket and the rest children's tickets. Split the cost evenly and everyone saves money.

    Movie Watcher is free and yes you should.

    Movie Tickets and Fandango deal are sorta proprietary.

    Mainly Movie Tickets is AMC/Regal and Fandango is Cineplex Odeon/Loews.

    So to buy a ticket at a Cineplex theater you have use Fandango. Movie Tickets will give you the showtimes but online ticketing won't happen for that chain.

    I went to see Chicken Little at a Cineplex theater Saturday and printed my tickets at home. I bypassed the box office entirely and went straight to the ticket tearer. You don't even have to go to a kiosk which would have been ok .

    1. Buy tickets online.

    2. Go to theater kiosk.

    3. Swipe credit card used to purchase tickets.

    4. Out pops tickets and freebies.

    5. Go movie now

    6. Movie suck bad.

    7. Can't get money back but at least convenient way to lose money in first place.
