They need to focus on the chairs working, cleanliness, and keeping assholes out. The reason I don’t go to my local AMC has nothing to do with the preshow stuff.
Alamo is what theatres used to be (clean, etc) with way better seats and they serve food and drinks.
It costs more, but you get reserved seats too. And the ads that do play are for their own movie schedule, and silly made-up stuff, or ads for movies from decades ago, again as silliness.
I’ve been to an Alamo Drafthouse when I traveled for work, they are pretty cool but I didn’t love the environment. Definitely better than your average theater though. I prefer Cinergy in that area.

So basically do half of what Alamo does.

Alamo is the only theater I go to anymore. But I do wish they paid their employees better and didn’t participate in union busting tactics.
It has gone downhill for sure. Better movie chains out there. I think I’m offically done with trash AMC. They used to be the gold standard!
