Fandango has had their BlackBerry app around for awhile now but it got a small update to v2.1.3 earlier this month. Fandango reached out to us saying that they have just launched their showtimes and ticketing app though I think that functionality was there before. Either way the app seems to be new to App World with only one review. Just as a reminder the Fandango App gives you access to:
