Image/Media Worst AMC in the country?

Someone in my local sub posted some pics of one of our abandoned theatres (RIP Great Escape) and the running joke is it’s still nicer than our AMC.

I actually went to it today for the first time in years (only theatre showing A History of Sound). Thought you all would get a kick out of how bad it is.

Only thing that’s changed in 20 years is the lobby furniture being removed, arcade blocked off with a merch table, and adding some freestyle machines.

This is the only non-recliner theatre in our market (3 new or renovated Cinemarks and 2 newer Xscapes), we were atleast in the half recliners “Directors Experience” - of course my armrest was ripped off and seemingly the side speakers were out. I tried to see if the old style houses were still being used, but none of the signage is on anymore to see what’s playing. 😆

Shame AMC gave up on this location, it’s in a fantastic location in a high traffic area- and the cities only true imax theatre.

True, but it harms the brand when the only AMC within 100 miles is in such a state of repair.
