With the release of Predator: Badlands less than a month away from us, AMC, the largest cinema chain in the world with headquarters in the USA, just announced that they’ll be doing a special Prey & Predator: Badlands Double Feature on November 5th. Tickets will be available soon.
This is big news for fans of Dan Trachtenberg’s Prey as it was a straight to streaming film, without ever having a proper official theatrical release, besides a few initial screening events. This represents an opportunity for a wider audience to see the film in cinemas, if they have an AMC theater available for them. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Prey, which was massively successful while streaming on Hulu, is getting an opportunity to have its belated cinema appearance when now the reputation of the franchise is in a much better spot than it was before its release.

I did a large search on fandango and essentially found 5 showings.
NY, NJ, CA, IL and WA.
I'm sure there are more, but considering I cast a pretty large net and only found 5 showings, that's not a great sign.
I sure hope they announce some more, and perhaps Regal will also partake.
Well I won't be able to make it to the 5th anyways since my family will only go to the theaters on a weekend, so Cinemark or Movie Tavern's comfy seats await me.
No shit they really are *that* uncomfortable? Like they ruin the experience?

Holy shit, I just looked it up and there's an AMC theater within bike riding distance to me. It's even slightly closer than my usual theater. Now I just gotta see what times this double feature will be because sadly I'm probably working that night.
2018? My headcannon is that you stopped going to AMC theaters because the last movie you saw there was The Predator.
I haven't been to an AMC theater since 2018, my go to theaters are Movie Tavern and Cinemark these days. Because of the comfortable seats.
Yup, seems to have vanished.
CON: AMC Theatre's popcorn is offensively godawful dogshit and actively ruins the moviegoing experience.
No really, a deciding factor impacting my enjoyment of a movie is how good the popcorn is since I almost only eat it when I go to the movies, and AMC's popcorn is f**king terrible and I go out of my way to avoid it. I'll deal with less comfortable seats or whatever if it means I get really good popcorn (I'm looking at you, Harkins Theatres).
Same brother, same.

Hate limited releases so much at times like this. I just want to see Prey in a theater, damn it.
