Tired of standing in line at the movie theater, or even printing out your tickets at home? Fandango has a solution. Starting today, moviegoers in eight markets—including New York, Houston, Dallas, and San Diego—will be able to flash their cellphones rather than bothering with a physical ticket. The phones will simply display a barcode that ticket-takers can scan. Check TechCrunch for a list of participating theaters. (More Fandango stories.)
