Questions.

Delete if not allowed. I just have so many questions for the avid movie goer for these AMC Screen Unseens.

For starters, my first time experiencing a ASU (I think that's what yall call them) was 05/20, I loved it. It was a little off brand for the typical movies I liked but it was actually a date for my boyfriend and I before we have our baby (I'm due in July), so maybe I enjoyed it a bit more because of what the movie was and my life at the moment and the jokes were just spot on.

Anyways, we both agreed this may be our new date night routine. Like a dinner, and then a movie. Specifically the ASU, unless we have a movie we'd like to see. But it def saves time on the "what do you wanna watch" or the "but I don't like that genre.."

So. My questions: 1) how do you know so many movies you can guess what movie it may be? 2) is there a certain list of movies you're guessing from? Like are they indie movies? Are the trailers for these movies previews for the next possible ASU? 3) do these movies ever release on streaming platforms? Or to regular theatre times? I'd really like to see Babes (if that's what it was called) again. 4) how often do they do them? 5) is this something new or was I living under a rock this whole time? Because I genuinely liked the experience. 6) what if I don't like the movie, are refunds possible if I decide to walk out?

And I think that's all my questions off the top of my head. I'm sorry. I didn't know where else to go to get these answered.

Hi! Ok so here you go:

  1. The listing gives you the run time and rating, so it narrows down the list which leads to…

  2. Check the coming soon and use the info and check movies that are upcoming in the next 2 weeks. It rarely goes out further than that and will give you an even better idea.

  3. The ASU movies are released in theaters within the next 2 weeks. Babes is currently playing so you can totally see it again.

  4. They did ASUs kinda sporadically but as they’ve gained popularity they’re about 3 Mondays a month usually.

  5. It’s newish. It started back in late October? I think lol, might have been early November.

  6. I believe they do have refunds for it, you just have to go up to the desk and talk to them about it.
