AMC made one heck of a competitive entry and MoviePass's remarks came off as sophomoric. Clearly didn't take it well.

not sure that entering the market at twice the price as MP in only AMC theaters is tremendously competitive. if MP fails it won't be b/c of

Those in AMC PLF markets will find their deal superior. Others like myself, MP is still the only choice with no AMC nearby.

large-format (imo) would be overrated as a differentiation point. the people i know who use MP most see stuff that doesn't demand IMAX

Price is the only reason I skip IMAX.

but there are maybe 5-10 movies a year, total, that really need to be in PLF at all

So their answer to AMC making a better MoviePass is to make theirs worse. “Genius” business move

the advanced ticketing and plf is what sold me. Being able to have customer service in person helps too. {nm}
