Hi!!! i’ve recently just got AMC*A-list membership and was wondering how is it going so far for the people who have had it for years or months🙂

So first my theater stopped being a dine in last two weeks I guess. I’m guessing the reorders for food stopped coming and they all just decided we will just be a regular theater. That’s not a biggy I get that. But I noticed my points for food and drinks are not being added to my account. Started about a month plus ago but then couldn’t go to the movies for a while. Then went on my bday two weeks ago and used my free drink and bought my kid some food. No points added. Has anyone else noticed the reward points have stopped? Sucks about the dine in. The bacon chicken mac and cheese was the best thing ever plus a strawberry shake. I’m gonna miss that. I truly am. Loved watching movies at AMC and eating that yummy food.

I noticed this new pizza flavor today, so I thought I would give it a shot.

The employee, who recognized me as a regular, warned me against it, saying it was no good. That made me more intrigued. How bad could it be?

Anyway, it was fine. As is typical, it was pretty unevenly heated. The sausage, by itself, was oddly sweet and not the most pleasant. Mixed with the hot honey, you couldn't really notice. It had diced jalapenos (I think?) on it, which really kicked up the spice. I didn't really notice it until I had eaten half of it, but it was surprisingly spicy. It lingered for quite a while.

6/10. It's worth a try if you're curious. I don't know how employees are instructed to cook them, but mine could have used an extra minute.

This week sucks for me and I am just going to rewatch Obsession along with Star Wars (Not really excited for that either).

Was wondering if Is God Is is worth it? The trailer was boring but I heard some good reviews. I trust you guys more than the occasional movie goers because there is usually a bias there (Only people who like the idea of the movie will go, unlike us who just go to different kinds of movies).

I know Passenger has been touted alongside Obsession and Backrooms as one of the “big 3” May horror movies.

But the review embargo still being in place and the seeming lack of hype (aside from the “shock value” of the trailer) is making me think it’ll be mediocre to bad. The rest of the trailer also didn’t give me too much hope to the point where I’m considering just watching Obsession a second time tomorrow instead.

Would love to hear people’s thoughts on what they expect the movie to be like! Might be fun to look back on this thread once I see it tomorrow evening

If AMC raises their prices i can deal with that. At most i think i can justify $40 (ABSOLUTELY INSANE I KNOW) but as a filmmaker who’s deeply in love with cinema i would pay 2 tickets for the cost of 16 if i use all 4 every week for a whole month.

If they start to touch the amount of tickets we have or limit the formats or whatever, that’s where they’ll lose me. I love dolby and laser whenever i can. I can deal with 4 out of state cause i don’t use it often.

I don’t know, what’s the most you guys would pay to remain A-List?

Hey, is anyone else having issues with the AMC App? My reservations and history aren't showing up even though they all pop up on the History tab and are active on the A-List section.

AMC Ford City is one of only two traditional movie theatres on Chicago's Southside. It is one of the few movie theatres in Chicago with ample, free parking that has also been updated with recliner seats.

So far the closure of Ford City's North Mall does not include AMC Ford City, but a month ago when the future of the mall was being discussed AMC Ford City suspended all it's screenings in anticipation of action from the city.

Are you someone who regularly uses A-list at AMC Ford City? How would the closure of AMC Ford City effect your life? Would your usage of A-list at Ford City change if the area was made a warehouse or data farm? What would you like to see in the place of Ford City Mall?

I know this question has been asked before. I’m aware of what the benefits are with each membership but I’m having a dilemma lol.

First, both regal and amc theater are about equal distance to me so this isn’t an issue. I know A-List comes with 4 movies a week including premium formats. The problem is my amc theater doesn’t offer any premium formats. Just the Laser at AMC which is pretty standard nowadays from my understanding.

The regal theater in my area has everything…IMAX, RPX, 4DX, ScreenX, etc…but regal has surcharges for online reservations as well as paying fees for premium formats which isn’t the worst thing in the world but still something to keep in mind considering I view most releases in whatever premium format is available.

Also the theater I usually go to is Reading Cinemas. They don’t have any decent memberships like regal or amc.

So do I go with A-List and deal with no premium formats or go with Regal Unlimited and pay the fees every time? At the moment I’m currently going to an entirely different theater 3-4 times a week and spending a ton of money which doesn’t make sense considering the membership options at the other two theaters.

- Thanks!

I suddenly got excited for the summer movie season and thought about all the films I have thought about.

Any A-list advice throw it at me!

I think it was 2 weeks ago or so that my AMC put up those walls at the entrance to one of the auditoriums

I looked at the posted permitting papers and they are converting that auditorium into ScreenX.

Look at my choices for movies this weekend-

they are listing screenx as an option ( but all shows are listed as sold out- AKA -place holder )

Going to be interesting to see if they get the work done by 1830 tomorrow ( that is the first time slot they have for the screenx show )

A star wars movie, on memorial day weekend, and a new format to this area...

I imagine they are pushing hard to get that finished in time to sell tickets for it over the weekend.

Just a little rant that I'm a bit ticked off that Star wars is taking all the premium Formats starting thrusday! From Dolby cinema to IMAX. So I had zero time to see MK in my favorite format Dolby cinema as I was a playing catch-up on my A-List reservations. They honestly barely gave it time in DC. I've also noticed laser many movies are just going digital because SW is taking all the 3D and Laser projectors as well! Frick Star wars TBH I know it's popular as hell and I know first world problems but seriously AMC needs to stop overdosing one film with 20-30 showings in one day for weeks ! The Sony CEO was right in that limited runs on smaller films is what's killing the industry. Sorry for the long rant just wanted to vent as ik trying to schedule my A-List for the upcoming week! Have a nice day everyone!

update: decided to see the final MK2 showing ever locally in liemax tonight so let's see how bad this is for a modern movie as I've only ever seen Jaws in 2023 in that same theater ! I'll report back at midnight

I've had a list for close to 4 years now, and I used to watch anything that came into my local theater. I used to watch three movies at AMC every week for that reason. I've been finding myself more selective about the movies I watch at the theater lately, so some weeks I don't watch any. Have you guys gotten more selective the longer you've had a list?

Anyone know why theres no IMAX showing scheduled?

Could they be upgrading the theater?
