How to Get Free Movie Tickets to New Movies

Did you know that you can actually get free movie tickets to see movies before they even come out in theatres? It's true, you can. Now, I can't 100% guarantee that if you follow these steps, you will definitely get free movie tickets, or always get tickets to the movies you want to see, but there is a good chance you will at least get some free tickets.

The first thing you need to do is go to: www.movie-view.com, and sign up for that site. MovieView is a Nielsen (NRG) website that recruits people for test-screenings of new films before they come out in theatres. It does not cost any money to join the website. You just fill out the registration form, give them some contact information (so they know where to send your tickets), and then wait.

I think your location will probably be the biggest factor in determining whether or not you get free movie tickets from Nielsen. If you live in a big city like, NY or LA, you're probably golden. If you live in a rural part of Alaska, I would not bank on getting any movie tickets.

The nest thing you can do is sign up to join FilmMetro at: http://www.filmmetro.com/. FilmMetro works pretty much the same as MovieView, it's just another way to increase your odds of getting free tickets to see new movies. CampusCircle (http://www.campuscircle.com/) is also another good one you should join. All of these sites are free to join, like I said, you just need to fill out the registration form and contact details.

Now, another important thing you should know is that if you have some credentials, you are going to have a better chance of getting tickets. So, what are "credentials" and how do you get them? Well, credentials would entail that you have some kind of influence over the movie ticket sales once the movie is released in theatres. The most obvious example would be a film critic.

The beautiful thing about the internet is that anyone, and I do mean anyone, can become a film critic these days. All you need to do is start your own blog and review some films. Movie studios are more inclined to give test-screening tickets to people they know are going to write about and review the film after they see it. Why? Because reviews are free advertising for their movies and will thus increase their ticket sales.

Another benefit to starting a movie review blog is if your blog starts to gain even a small amount of popularity, you may start to get emails from movie studios actually asking you to come see a sneak preview of their movie as long as you write about it afterwards.
