More annoying that AMC bought out basically every local theater and then shot themselves in the foot, so there's not many alternatives.
Local theaters usually do community events and have a play theater for live productions that keeps the business going.
AFAIK AMC only does latest releases and sometimes reruns during low traffic.
small independent cinemas are such a joy.
many of the few that remained died during the pandemic
franchise cinemas often lack any personality and you can tell the staff is underpaid and doesn't care about anything..... worst of all, certainly no care for hygiene and food quality
