This is one of our biggest pro-consumer announcements in years. I genuinely hope that tens of millions of AMC moviegoers each year will take advantage of the tremendous midweek discounts that AMC is now offering.

Why not? Take in a movie mid-week, not just on the weekend.

[Adam Aron @CEOAdam]

In the U.S., AMC just recorded our highest revenues for a pre-Thanksgiving weekend in AMC’s entire 104 year history history. Fully 4.6 million people graced our theatres globally over the 4 days Thursday to Sunday. What a wonderful way to start the holiday moviegoing season!

@Matt_Fleming321 @KCStar Pretty whiny post for someone talking about a golden binky.

[Derrick Leggett @guyinmidtownkc]

@hotchman @theABinKC Oh look....Jackson County tax payers following Frank White and Tenant KC in their rush to show up the billionaires, lose two sports teams in one vote, and say goodbye to a significant portion of their tax revenue. 😂But..THEY WON!!!

[Derrick Leggett @guyinmidtownkc]

@TacoSalazar 😂😂😂

[Derrick Leggett @guyinmidtownkc]

@TacoSalazar @MannyAbarcaIV Frank White didn't show up to the table for months. Amazing that some people are turning him into some kind of hero because he partnered on hijacking this thing. The Royals/Chiefs screwed this up bigtime, but so did White, his henchmen, and the CCA.

[Derrick Leggett @guyinmidtownkc]

@TacoSalazar @pjkc55 😂Are you serious? lmao Jackson County tax payers will pay to tear it down and there won't be a penny of Chiefs/Royals tax revenue after they leave to offset the $200+ million cost. Or, the stadiums will rot and remind Jackson County voters how dumb they were. Would be fitting.

And this is what it’s all about

[Derrick Leggett @guyinmidtownkc]

@MOTig123 @TacoSalazar An entertainment district does though. Reality is that small-market teams need both to ever thrive...both a salary cap and a stadium environment that has multiple streams of revenue. It's easy to call anyone who disagrees with you an economically challenged moron though. :)

[Derrick Leggett @guyinmidtownkc]

@TacoSalazar 13,000 fans showed up for game THREE and we are consistently bottom 10 in MLB attendance. This cowtown doesn't deserve an MLB team. A new entertainment district allows Sherman to better fund the team though....giving us a "slightly" better fighting chance of fielding a good team.

[Derrick Leggett @guyinmidtownkc]

Thankful for my amazing team and the great partnerships across AMC that made this record-setting day possible. Looking forward to an amazing #TSTheErasTourFilm at #AMCTheatres

A month ago, I tweeted we had a 3-month parade of big movies coming. Opening this weekend: Disney & Pixar's ELEMENTAL; D.C. Comics' THE FLASH; Wes Anderson's ASTEROID CITY; horror flick THE BLACKENING. Wowzer what a weekend! To the doomsayers, moviegoing is not dead. #ChokeOnThat

[Adam Aron @CEOAdam]

@7Tew7 @Chiefs @NFL 😂😂😂

[Derrick Leggett @guyinmidtownkc]

Amazing finish for the @Chiefs and a disappointing loss for the @NFL officiating crew. They did try hard for an upset though. 🤷‍♂️🙄🤷‍♂️ For my friends in Houston, good game.
