Engadget Podcast: MoviePass founder Stacy Spikes on the MovieCrash documentary

The Engadget Podcast recently featured an interview with Stacy Spikes, co-founder of MoviePass, and Muta'Ali, director of the documentary "MoviePass, MovieCrash". Spikes discussed the evolution of MoviePass, from its initial struggles with theater chains to its current iteration which uses a credit system to align savings for the company with savings for the consumer. Muta'Ali shared his interest in the story of MoviePass and how he was drawn to the project after reading an article about the company. The podcast also touched on the impact of MoviePass on the cinema industry, with every major theater chain now offering their own subscription program, a trend that likely wouldn't have occurred without MoviePass's influence.
