The Los Angeles Times reported last week that Fandango has now made a deal with Pacific Theatres. That now brings their market share to 80% and provides a bitter blow to rival Movietickets.com. While the deal includes Pacific’s popular location at the Grove, their luxury ArcLight will remain separate.
With Movietickets.com becoming less of a factor in the marketplace, how will Fandango’s almost monopoly affect your moviegoing experience?

The closest location that does movietickets are clearview cinemas, now owned by bowtie. It could be huge if bowtie sales get used by fandango. I see fandango ads every time i watch a Universal bluray, since Comcast owns a stake in the movie ticket company and the studio.
