All hail Chris Nolan. As of weekend two in theatres, The Odyssey is now up to a media-reported $286 million domestic box office gross. And $640 million at the worldwide box office.

AMC’s IMAX screens had their all-time highest ever two weekend gross for a single movie title!

Did you know every dollar spent at a movie theater generates another $1.50 for nearby businesses?

Movie theaters bring people downtown, support local restaurants and shops, and create jobs.

Today, I introduced the SCREEN Act to encourage private investment in theaters and strengthen the communities. https://t.co/w55tRAQS5n

THE DAY AFTER. It was such a distinct pleasure, so immensely satisfying, to be able to report to you yesterday that our second quarter of 2026 with $321.4 million of Adjusted EBITDA was the single best quarterly result in AMC’s entire 106-year history.

With 71 million guests in our theatres, we also had the highest revenues in AMC history, and managed our costs well.

We have generated $228 million more EBITDA in the first half of 2026 than we did in the first half last year.

We finished the quarter with $778 million of cash on hand.

The best way to silence the critics and make the naysayers irrelevant is to produce undeniably good results, in this case for Q2 record results, and that is precisely what AMC has been doing throughout 2026.

To those Apes who stood by us along the way, and especially to those who are with us still, I am not exaggerating in saluting the role you all played in saving moviegoing and saving movie theatres and saving AMC.

Because of your support, your children and grandchildren should be able to continue to enjoy… in theatres… seeing dazzling images on our huge silver screens, just as people have done to their great delight for more than a century.

Bellavance: "Every time [Trump and the Republicans] make those disparaging comments about Canada, they make the rupture with Canada more profound. I think it's going to take generations for us to forget what this president did to Canada."

Number of games NHL teams have when they face an opponent on the second half of a back-to-back. Quite the difference from MTL to TOR and WPG.

On Monday (July 20), before the market opens, AMC will announce our financial results for the 2nd quarter of 2026.

Many of you will be keenly interested to learn more as to our performance so far in 2026.

Last night, I attended the premiere of Chris Nolan’s new masterpiece The Odyssey, which took place at our AMC Lincoln Square Theatre in New York City.

Oh my, my, my what a wild movie. Our theatres are going to be packed as moviegoers flock to see this film.

A long story, but in the summer of 2007, I guest conducted the world renowned NY Philharmonic at a public performance before an audience of more than 1500 people. I conducted Dvorak’s Slavonic Dance #8 in G Minor.

This AI variation is more fitting for the summer of 2026.

The Domestic Box Office: ticket grosses for all U.S. & Canadian theatres.

Q2 2026: $2.974 billion. That’s the biggest quarter since Q2 2019, and the 5th biggest of the 200 quarters of the past 50 years.

How many times have I heard some idiot say that movie theatres are dead?

[Adam Aron @CEOAdam]

Today is the day! Minions & Monsters opens at AMC Theatres. I have seen it. This homage to old Hollywood is nothing less than a masterpiece of animation. Congratulations to Chris Meledandri, Illumination and Universal. https://t.co/2pqZ6iYcjk

It’s official. Toy Story 5 had the biggest domestic opening weekend gross of any movie so far in 2026, with a media reported $160 million. It’s the 7th different movie in the past three months to have a domestic opening gross above $75 million, which Toy Story 5 far exceeded.

As for AMC, in the U.S., we posted the highest attendance, highest ticket revenues and highest food & beverage revenues of any weekend so far in 2026.  

In all, 4.8 million guests visited our theatres globally Thursday to Sunday. 

We congratulate our friends at Disney and Pixar, as well as all the film makers behind Toy Story 5, for their delivering a theatrical event that clearly connected with audiences. Toy Story 5 scored a dazzling 94% from critics and 95% from moviegoers on Rotten Tomatoes.

And given our close dealings with Taylor Swift over the past several years, we also want to highlight and salute Taylor’s #1 chart-topping smash hit song, ‘I Knew It, I Knew You,’ which she wrote and performed for TOY STORY 5.

Movie after movie is doing so very well in theatres. With so many major releases coming to theatres across the entire summer, and especially so in July (led by Minions & Monsters, Moana, The Odyssey and Spider-Man: Brand New Day), we have every confidence to expect that our momentum will continue.

@Hockeyfore @ThomasDrance A team trying to get to the cap floor. Real dollars will be a lot lower than $8 mil as all these deals are front loaded and bonus laden

Here’s the list of the movies to open domestically above $75 million this year:

Project Hail Mary
Super Mario Galaxy

Devil Wears Prada 2
Mandalorian and Grogu
Backrooms

AND after this weekend…

I’ll bet Toy Story 5 joins that hit parade.

July 10 Moana
July 17 The Odyssey

[Adam Aron @CEOAdam]

The hits have been so numerous and coming so fast and furious this year. I was mistaken yesterday when I said Toy Story 5 would be the 6th different movie to have an opening weekend domestic gross above $75 million. It will be the 7th!

Lucky number 7.
