MoviePass will now charge extra for peak showtimes of popular movies. As of Thursday,classic xxx movies - watch full movies for free that means $2 to $6 on top of the flat monthly rate the service charges for unlimited movies in theaters.
SEE ALSO: AMC comes for MoviePass with $20/month Stubs membership — and it sounds awesomeWhen we learned in June that MoviePass would be getting surge pricing, it didn't sound all bad. The surge was estimated to be $2, and the company also planned to add IMAX/3-D tickets.
The example provided Thursday by MoviePass listed Avengers: Infinity Warat 7 p.m. with the $3.43 surcharge, per the Hollywood Reporter. Infinity Waris an in-demand movie if there ever was one, but it's been in theaters for two months already. A MoviePass spokesperson informed Mashable via email that the surcharge could be up to $6 and will correlate with demand for the movie.

The Peak Pricing F.A.Q. insists that this isn't a step toward removing MoviePass's insane monthly rate, but that it is designed to ensure that deal sticks around.
Peak pricing is currently in trial and rolling out to MoviePass subscribers, or when membership renews for members on annual or quarterly plans. MoviePass also shared that it will integrate Peak Pass, a once-a-month freebie for members to waive the peak fee.
