Their problem is the pricing and the thing you get for the price is too much a ripoff Single ticket are almost 20$. A simple pop corn + beverage can cost 20$ extra. If youre going on a date you can end up paying 80$ And what do you get from it? Most tv and smartphone now have 4k resolution. Excellent quality. The seats at cinema isnt really as comfortable and cozy as your sofa or your bed. And you can buy yourself some good food for just 10$ at your local store Cinema thought they can ripoff people ask insane price. And people would keep coming Now the only people who go to cinema are people who have first dates, people who got lot of money in the bank and some rare hardcore movie fans Its been years i dont hear about people planning to go to cinema as an outdoor activity. They now usualy choose bar/cafe/restaurent/touristic place/beach

Makes it interesting and it's a "fresh" view (seeing the same room you see everyday VS seeing a new environment). It's refreshing. Now, if you are a boring person who has a routine and don't like to try new things, then sure, stick to watching movies in the same room you've been watching em for the past few years. It's like going to a new restaurant. Sure, you can always "cook at home" and the food might not be "new" but the environment is different and therefore, feels different, exciting, and new.

You have to have two of the following things to succeed in business. 1-Speed/Convenience 2-Quality 3-Affordability. AMC only has one. They are not affordable, when compared to streaming services and food prices, and they aren't convenient, due to streaming services offering content on a device that everyone has. They need to somehow lower prices or expand their offerings by offering unique experiences (extended edition movies, immersive content, maybe an NFT for those who come to the first few showings).

Will always prefer seeing a blockbuster or action film on the big screen with friends and family. Not only is it nostalgic but the theatre experience is just more elevated compared to any home theatre setup, from the large IMAX screens, immersive Dolby Atmos surround sound, reclinable leather seats, and in-seat food and drink service if we’re dining at the movies. AMC should offer early screenings for members and perhaps other perks. Alternative shows like concerts, pro sports and anime films have also boost the variety - gaming events at the theatre could be huge too. Interactive trivia and games on a dedicated app as part of the pre-show, with mini rewards have been a nice addition too at some theatres.

Home theater will never duplicate the theater going experience idk if you got a machine with a huge screen..nothing beats imax and watching it with strangers and feeling their energy etc..

People forget, Long before the Pandemic, Hollywood was trying their best to get viewers back in the theaters as numbers had severely dropped. The pandemic simply exacerbated the problem. The real reason why theater viewing had fallen off was due to a rash of very disappointing high profile films, along with the movie experience having long become very very bad. The theaters themselves run poorly by poorly trained, underpaid staff. Theater equipment out dated, and all this with an increase in cost for tickets. But ticket sales really wasn't what kept people away, The overall costs had become astronomical. The cost of concession stand snack items was just overpriced, No one should be spending $300 and more just to take their family out to see a movie with some popcorn, but that's what its grown into. And on top of high cost, another distraction was who was attending theater viewing... Loud noisy kids. Theaters became a hotspot for kids attending but seldom ever actually watching the film. Going to the theater placing 80 percent of their attention on each other talking or on their smartphones laughing it up, making the experience for those who came to actually watch the film simply intolerable. Better off not wasting your movie on a bad experience and what however months for it to be released by other means. Then you can watch the film in peace with no distractions. The movie going experience needed to change all together. And with that said, i may point out an experience that has recently blown my mind away. A theater experience which was top notch in every regard, all at the comfort of my home. An expensive home theater you say? No. not at all. I watched a movie in a theater via the BigScreen App for the Oculus Quest2. WOW! several theater types to choose from All of which feels and looks real!! NO i really Mean this!!! you have to try this!!!! This applications places you in one of several theaters to choose from with all the hallmarks of a real theatrical experience. AND you can watch 3d films that are simply perfect. Dare i say, if you can bare wearing the VR headset for such a period of time, with a break or two between. This experience is so good you really Dont have to goto a theater. AND ironically enough, you can attend these virtual movie going experiences with other avatar friends and other attendees. and block them out if so desired. its truly a game changer.

I hope Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, Paramount+, and other streaming services release their content on Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K because that would definitely increase both the movie theaters and streaming industry and also improve the economy. I hope both movie theaters and streaming survive the changing times and technologies for the future.

For all the talk of expanding into new businesses, I never understood why theaters didn't utilize their core strengths and resources for things like conventions, TED talks, eSports, Super Bowl parties, weddings, etc. I feel like there's so much you can do with theaters, basically anything that could use a big screen, lots of seating, and food. I know they only have so much space, but I've gone into lots of movie showings where the theater was nearly empty, so I feel like they must have some unused capacity. And for what it's worth, if they're seriously capacity-constrained for all those uses, that would suggest the potential of opening even more locations to meet that demand. I feel like instead of showing the same movie 5 times in a row on a single screen, that could be consolidated down to 2 showings, and then the space could be used for other events. Maybe I'm crazy, but I feel like there's so much money-making potential there.

My wife and I used to go to the local AMC theaters for the big releases, but over the past decade the theater owner failed to update, renovate, or even thoroughly clean the theaters. We gradually stopped going to the theater and just waited for the movies we wanted to see to hit DVD/BluRay. The theater seats were filthy and tiny, reminiscent of today's airline seating or even worse. The screens and sound system were not up to modern standards, and the prices had become ridiculous. In other parts of the country theaters were upgrading seating to large adjustable seats with lots of room, offering higher quality food and drink, letting people reserve seats, and in general making the customer feel like the experience was worth the money. Since the pandemic we haven't been in either of our local AMC theaters, and we have no intention of doing so unless we get new ownership that completely updates the facilities and the experience.

If theaters were multi purpose (showing movies but also live theater productions, music, comedy, etc.), they would be more of an asset to the community and would be able to survive certain market changes due to the diversification of their offerings. Additionally, a MovieTavern model where you can eat dinner while watching a movie, and making the movie watching experience more comfortable, would go a long way. But right now, I just don't want to sit in a room with a bunch of people who have Covid. So I've only see like 1 movie in the theaters since the pandemic.

And yet here we are in 2023 and the stocks in all these theater companies are virtually junk. No investor wants to touch it. Online streaming with large HD TVs is having an impact on theaters.

What if a theater concept started as an experiment.That would be:Set up a theater where personal vehicles drove in and folks sat in their vehicles and watched a movie on a 120'× 250' screen..A central location could sell popcorn,candy,and soda.Restroom could be built near concession .One could click on a cell app to get sound!! Then...pick it up in stereo with your vehicle !

first time I went to an amc cinema was in rockaway outer six a year before it closed due to lease and then became a best buy. I then went to an amc in Bridgewater that was once a general cinema during their buying spree when general cinema went bankrupt. they soon gobbled up other chains including loews and soon became the biggest name in cinemas. the current amc rockaway 16 is great but needs fixing.

Come to Canada! It's all Cineplex and Landmark theaters where I live.

Great piece CNBC. Theatrical is an experience and much needed revenue stream before other ancillary ones come into the equation.

Rather than post the film to television, have the consumer pay 2/3 times and enjoy that content 2/3 times in the process. Theatrical > PVOD > VOD > BluRay > Cable > Terrestrial television.

Adapt, that's all these companies have to do. Also as long as good movies are being put out you'll stay in business.

This was an excellent report. I KNOW my rig is not as good as a giant theater screen but it is good enough for me to not need theaters anymore. It is an Epson 4K Projector on to a separate screen; trust me, it is STUNNING. It has the exact same characteristics: No reflections, about a 170-degree viewing angle, and none of my theater complaints as follows. On Flight 93, a somber film involving 9-11 these two spoiled brats talked incessantly and LOUD all the way through it. Toward the end, with about 15 minutes remaining, they left! I couldn't believe it. For me to tell them to STFU I would have had to walk over to them and make a big scene. This has happened many times and it is a deal breaker for me.😧Best of luck to all the theater companies involved!

Yeah home theater systems are taking over and overtime movie theaters get too expensive. I can only go to the movies on discount Tuesday.

Not with their ever increasing ticket prices.

Cool arcades and better food options would really help AMC and other cinema chains. There’s still a place for the cinema in spite of streaming because nothing can quite replicate that experience.

I stopped going when the cell phone crowd and the talker crowd started showing up to every movie. I'll just watch it at home from now on.

AMC: We need a miles morales spiderman movie do it now!!! Marvel: give me that staff job .... and double the money

I go to movie theaters once per year. I think the last one I saw was James Bond.

A list is the best. I love it. I dont have a TV at home. I have to go to a movie theater to see a movie

I never go to the movies because when I do it's filled with people talking and dicking around on their cell phones, blasting everyone in the theather with bright light. If there was an Alamo Drafthouse near me I'd go, but regular theaters that allow cell phones and other BS aren't worth my time or money.

With streaming services Snack Prices are reasonable, u can pause to go to the bathroom

Movie theatres are like gas stations, little profit is made on actual ticket sales (like actual gas sales), most comes from concessions, popcorn and soda, candy.

The new model like the Alemo seem to be doing better

DAMN RIGHT they will. $AMC to the moon. CRUSH short sellers.

Ppl blame their reason for not going on price. But with enough reasearch/planning. I spend $9 on a ticket + snacks And the theaters have reclining seats now

MOASS IS COMING!

Hell no, unless they get rid of non profitable locations and have less competition. On the other hand, they can take advantage of the APEs and keep raising cash as needed
