The large screen and sound system are definite checkmarks, but the experience of sharing a movie with a room full of people who are specifically there only for the purpose of watching the movie? Hell yes. It's a great feeling. The popcorn is great too. The only bad part about the theater experience is whenever some asshat a few rows down takes out their bright cell phone. If I had flawless aim Id throw some popcorn at them. --- Sig User Logic https://imgur.com/lA5fm7w <cite>iPhone_7 posted [p:938299580] in AMC seemin...

I have a 5.2.2 surround sound system with a 140 inch silver-infused screen and a 4k BenQ projector; but I still go to AMC for their Dolby Cinema for spectacle movies. --- https://imgur.com/XNEdLrJ <cite>IdiotMachine posted [p:938299645] in AMC seemin...
