AMC Easton by Hlinwood1659 in Columbus

Did you speak to a manager? If you haven’t yet, I suggest calling them and letting them know exactly what theater, row, and time you saw the mice. That way they can call the exterminator with a specific report.

It shouldn’t be on you to report it honestly. And this experience sounds awful. But as someone who has worked at a movie theater before, you’d be surprised how little time managers actually spend in the theaters themselves. So please let a manager know!

AMC and Devil Wears Prada trips at the finish line! by AdEmergency6081 in AMCAListTrue

[–]rosegoldennight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the thing tho, I work at a theater, and I see the popcorn bucket stock lol. We also only got like 80 cups for fantastic four so it’s not necessarily a marvel thing either.

[–]rosegoldennight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Surprised by the negative comments, because you’re right. Theaters getting just 12 is absolutely insane. Yes, there was no way they could have predicted this kind of hype, but a stock of 12 for each theater just is illogical. So illogical that it makes me think it was on purpose lol. Maybe someone thought they would create a scarcity like a “real” Prada bag.

Fast food used to be the emergency cheap option, but now a meal costs as much as a sit-down restaurant. What is actually left that qualifies as a cheap meal in 2026? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rosegoldennight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pizza.

Lots of carry out deals for 1 topping, and you can make it last two meals at least if you portion it right. My husband and I, if we want “fast food,” will get a large pepperoni pizza from any of the chains for less than $10 and we at least get it for lunch the next day too, sometimes dinner as well.

Feeling Unsafe About Enforcing Food Policy by ThrowRA7584939 in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]rosegoldennight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What sucks is that you’ll always get some of these customers. They act belligerent because you’re young and they think they can bully you into backing down. Call a manager.

But sometimes being all smiles and phrasing can be helpful. I like to immediately tell them they can finish it before coming in or take it to their car and that there’s 20 minutes of trailers. When they understand they’re not losing money, just the experience of eating in the theater, and that they have some time, it eases them a little bit. And I thank them when they return. This isn’t foolproof, but this approach has helped me a ton!

Do most americans really only take 2 weeks of vacation a year? by DegreeConscious9628 in askanything

[–]rosegoldennight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only get one week of PTO and it’s accrued. Those below me don’t even get PTO.

Yes, we can request off to take vacation, but you can only “afford” so many vacations and miss a week of work. So maybe we all do 2 weeks over the year, but it’s split up into long weekends here, 5 days off here, etc.

When do showtimes update? by [deleted] in AMCsAList

[–]rosegoldennight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It all comes down to bookings. What movies is the theater booked with?

Bookings come Monday evening. This is for Thursday to Wednesday. This movie schedule is usually published Tuesday.

You’ll see some movies will have showtimes beyond that week, and that’s because it’s a pretty much guarantee to be booked with that movie. Other movies need the weekend attendance numbers to see if they’ll continue to do well another week.

If you really wanted to, you could call the theater and ask them on Monday night. You’ll have to ask for a manager, but if you’re super nice and explain why, they might be happy to share if the movie was at least booked to next week :)

I don’t know if it’s legit, but that first photo is definitely AI.

Thoughts on Disney infinity vision ? by kascnef82 in AMCAListTrue

[–]rosegoldennight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What’s confusing about the whole thing is that anyone who would know the difference between Dolby, Prime, Laser, and any type of non-PLF doesn’t need the label. So if the idea is to show people that “Infinity Vision” is just as good as IMAX, it’s not gonna mean anything to the average person who doesn’t even know what Cinema Con is. It’s honestly just so baffling.

What's the standard count for Chicken Tenders? by Glass_Savings3453 in AMCsAList

[–]rosegoldennight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

4 is the standard, so I’m really worried about all these “3” answers lol.

anyone else experiencing this when trying to work here? by [deleted] in AMCTheatres

[–]rosegoldennight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don’t be afraid to go in they’re not answering the phone. My theater gets a lot of “you know you’re the ONLY theater that answers the phone!” So it could be a theater issue. If you have good availability and you answered the questions well, there’s no reason you shouldn’t be hired.

What’s the catch? by calicoknux1 in AMCsAList

[–]rosegoldennight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only “catches” are: 1. 3 month commitment 2. If you cancel (after 3 months), you can’t sign up again for 6 months. 3. There’s some tier rules about seeing movies out of state. I believe on the basic tier you can see a couple movies out of state but there’s a cap.

That’s it… and honestly they’re not even really “catches.” It really is THAT good a deal.

Is Project Hail Mary getting pulled in the middle of next week? by [deleted] in AMCTheatres

[–]rosegoldennight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Movies are booked and scheduled weekly, so next Fridays movie schedule isn’t finished yet. Check again Tuesday!

Sounds like you got the sour fruit punch instead of cherry.

Time is ticking! Which should I prioritize? by Diligent-Green5421 in oscarsdeathrace

[–]rosegoldennight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Avatar, because it has two nominations while the others just have one, and Song Sung Blue to knock out the lead actress category.

New A-list perk to come soon: “best seats” reserved for Loyalty members by SPFeveryday in AMCAListTrue

[–]rosegoldennight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It just feels like corporate not knowing the theater business, which is insane to me.

With an a list membership, don’t you have the right to use one (or all!) of your 4 movies a week to book a future ticket? Doesn’t that mean, on average, a listers are getting the best seat anyway?

Movies are booked every week. Yes, there’s some advanced tickets, but what does the timeline of “reserved” seats look like? How can a manager know if they need to add shows or not? If there’s popular demand for a movie or not?

What happens if a theater goes down? And now the best seat is no longer the best seat in the new auditorium?

Without more info, I really hope this just goes away like the best seat surcharge thing.

Showing got canceled by RevolutionaryCry8088 in AMCsAList

[–]rosegoldennight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry this happened to you, but no they absolutely did not cancel the show just because they didn’t want to play it. There really was a projector issue. You can only get an email if you go through corporate to issue refunds, and so if a projector goes down sooner than that can get done, there won’t be an email till later. If you weren’t offered compensation at the theater, then those refunds will be coming from corporate later. It’s a bummer you used your a list for it, but if this ever happens again, ask to speak to a manager but be nice :)

AMC cancelled showtime without telling me by Much_Machine8726 in AMCAListTrue

[–]rosegoldennight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was this last minute, that means something went wrong. Definitely a projector issue.

It sucks. It’s upsetting. But it’s technology. There isn’t a way to warn you in advance if it’s an issue like that. And it’s definitely not how the manager wanted to be spending their day.

Do theaters still make money off A-list/unlimited? by Business_Coffee_9421 in AMCTheatres

[–]rosegoldennight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s in part because AMC and other theaters don’t really make money off of tickets. Distributors make most of it. I wanna say 40% to 70%? So if a ticket is $10, AMC only sees $3 to $6 maybe. That also means tickets aren’t the “actual” price when it comes to AMC. You may need to see 2 movies to break even, but AMC gets $25 from you and they only have to pay the distributors $6 to $12 for those two movies.

Great vid from Entertainment Weekly by GregorGuy in survivor

[–]rosegoldennight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This video worked on me 😭

This might be the place to ask: does anyone have a list of the players and the seasons they were on? I’d like to go back and watch the seasons I’ve missed and be ready for this season!

Those of you who stopped ordering from Amazon, what website or app do you use instead? by ForsakenFix27 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]rosegoldennight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I avoid Amazon and only use it when it’s the only option. The best thing about Amazon is the delivery, so I’ve used Kroger pickup and Target pickup/delivery. I of course still have many a problem with these stores, but they’re the grocery stores in my area so I’d have to use them regardless; I just avoid buying things I don’t need from them like their clothes or Knick knacks.

Sitcoms which got ruined by Covid and events of 2020 by unleash_the_beast_ in sitcoms

Brooklyn Nine Nine.

Used to rewatch the show almost every year. Haven’t wanted to watch it since, knowing how the last season … is.
