NEW YORK (AP) — AMC Theatres, the nation's largest movie theater chain, will reopen in the U.S. on Aug. 20 with retro ticket prices of 15 cents per movie.

AMC Entertainment, which owns the chain, said Thursday that it expects to open the doors to more than 100 cinemas — or about a sixth of its nationwide locations — on Aug. 20 with throwback pricing for a day.

AMC theaters have reopened in numerous international countries but have remained shuttered in the U.S. since March. The chain touted the reopening as “Movies in 2020 at 1920 Prices.”

After several false starts due to a summer rise in coronavirus cases throughout much of the U.S., widespread moviegoing is currently set to resume in late August. Regal Cinemas, the second largest chain, is to reopen some U.S. locations on Aug. 21.

During its opening-day promotion, AMC will show catalog films, including “Ghostbusters,” “Black Panther," “Back to the Future” and “Grease." Those older films will continue to play afterward for $5.

Not a very exciting lineup.

I'd rather see something like Jurassic Park, Top Gun, Independence Day, or The Matrix.

Nothing like piling tons of people into a closed environment for 2 hours at a time.

I don’t think it’s worth it to me

Let's bring it back to retro prices to play retro movies...and let's also throw in Black Panther

But $0.15/ticket is an awesome promotion

Considering tickets are only 15 cents, probably the Melissa McCarthy one.
