AMC Theatres

I want to point out that the AMC theater chain has sensory-friendly screenings of films:

Thats an interesting idea. AMC is already in my good column for putting out a special series of 16 Lion King cards.

As a fellow Lion King fan I can definitely appreciate that.

I attempted to go to an AMC sensory friendly movie this past Tuesday night. They have $5 ticket Tuesdays, there were so many people there would have been no way to get in without panicking and I likely would have gotten bumped so I just left. I have previously been to a Saturday morning movie and it was fine. I really wish they'd have them on a different night when there's not a huge discount so it's more manageable. I plan to write to them about this.

Good point. I think they are trying everything they can to drive traffic to them on Tuesdays and maybe not realizing that doing so is overloading the people with sensory issues. Maybe they should pick Monday or Wednesday evening for sensory-friendly films.

I think they should, was going to suggest that to them.
