ABOUT & FAQ
Movies are better with a crew.
Atlanta Movie Club is a community of Atlanta movie fans who like seeing movies together. We organize new releases, special screenings, repertory films, festivals, and other movie events around metro Atlanta. You do not need to be a cinephile. Show up, enjoy the movie, and join the conversation.
Everyone is welcome
We want a casual, respectful, inclusive community at screenings, socials, and online. Harassment, discrimination, threats, or conduct that makes the community unsafe or seriously unwelcoming is not acceptable. If something happens that an organizer should know about, please contact us through Support.
π Independent movie community
Atlanta Movie Club is not affiliated with AMC, Regal, Cinemark, Letterboxd, WhatsApp, TMDB, studios, distributors, or individual theaters unless a particular event expressly says otherwise. We are movie fans organizing movie nights together.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How the Club works
ποΈ How do outings work?
Each event can have one or more outings. An outing is a particular screening at a theater, date, and time. Choose the one that works for you and mark yourself Committed, Interested, or Declined. The outing page is the source of truth for that screening.
β What does βCommittedβ mean?
Commit when you actually intend to attend. Depending on the outing, you may book your own ticket, use a theater membership, request A-List Entourage booking, or tell us you need a ticket from the Club block. A commitment does not mean a ticket has been purchased unless the site or an organizer confirms that your ticket is booked or assigned.
π« How do tickets and seats work?
We do not sell tickets. When members need tickets from us, we use those requests to decide how many tickets to buy for the group block. Members then claim those Club-purchased tickets at cost. You can also book separately or use an available theater program. When we coordinate seats, we try to keep the group together, so assignments can move as the group develops.
π₯ Can I bring a guest?
Usually, when the outing allows it. Add the correct guest count to your commitment so the headcount and ticket planning stay accurate. You are responsible for your guests and any ticket cost associated with them.
πΏ Do I need AMC A-List, Regal Unlimited, or another subscription?
No. Many regular moviegoers use theater subscriptions, but they are not required. You can attend with an ordinary ticket. Atlanta Movie Club is independent of theater membership programs.
π What if I am running late?
Come anyway. Check the outing page or group chat for current meetup or seating information. If the movie has started, find your seat and catch up with everyone afterward rather than missing more of the film.
π₯ What happens after the movie?
It depends on the outing. Members often stick around to talk, grab food or drinks, or continue the conversation nearby. A post-movie social is optional and may not happen after every screening.
π³οΈ How do we choose movies?
We look for movies worth seeing together: major new releases, smaller films, special presentations, repertory screenings, festivals, and other interesting theatrical events. Some are planned well ahead; others come together when theaters publish schedules.
ποΈ Where do you meet?
Across metro Atlanta. We are not tied to one theater chain or neighborhood. Every outing identifies its venue and screening details.
π° What does it cost?
There is currently no fee simply to participate in Atlanta Movie Club outings. Members are responsible for their tickets, food, drinks, parking, transportation, and other personal expenses. If you claim a ticket from a Club group block, you reimburse the Club at the ticketβs cost; the Club does not add a markup.
π I have never been before. Can I just join an outing?
Yes. Create an account, find an outing that interests you, and commit. You do not need to know anyone beforehand. Making it easier to find people to see movies with is the point.
π Who can see that I am attending?
Member-facing attendee information follows the privacy controls available in your account. Organizers may still need your identity to manage the outing, tickets, seating, support, and safety.
β What are ratings and reviews for?
They keep the conversation going after the credits. Reviews are optional, disagreement is welcome, and respectful discussion matters more than agreeing about a movie.
π± What is the website for?
It is the central place for events and outings: discovering movies, choosing a screening, committing or expressing interest, managing guests, seeing attendance information, maintaining your profile, and rating or reviewing movies.
π¬ Do I still need the group chat?
The website handles the structured parts of an outing; the group chat is useful for conversation, announcements, and last-minute coordination. Record your commitment on the website so organizers have an accurate headcount.
π What information do I have to provide?
An email address is required for an account. Other profile information may be optional. The Privacy Policy explains what we collect, why we use it, and your choices.
β What if my plans change?
Update your commitment as soon as you know you cannot attend, especially when the Club has purchased or is holding a ticket for you. Some outings have a cancellation cutoff because a ticket cannot always be recovered or reassigned at the last minute.
π¬ How long has the community been around?
Atlanta movie fans have been showing up together through this community since 2023. The website is a newer extension designed to make organizing outings easier as the community grows.
π How can I help?
Show up, welcome new people, join the discussion, suggest screenings, keep commitments accurate, and let an organizer know if you would like to help with events or the community.
