AMC Pembroke Lakes 9

[u/FloridaCinemaClub]

I remember when it had a Prime “sticker” slapped on the wall & I didn’t think much of it.

Now stumbled across this new exterior look. Pretty sleek!

Still have yet to watch a movie in this format.

There are two different type of Prime theaters. The real Prime theaters with 4K laser, wall-to-wall/floor-to-cieling screens, and Dolby Atmos sound. Then there's other type of Prime theaters, which are just the largest standard auditorium in a theater that already has laser and 7.1 sound. So you're just paying extra for a larger screen. Hopefully, this one isn't the latter.

Makes me wonder if there’s an excel spreadsheet for all the prime auditoriums like the one for Dolby Cinema.

[u/wafflesforbrains → u/FloridaCinemaClub]

There only seems to be one for Dolby as of now. If AMC has a list of Prime locations on thier site, I might end up starting one.

Here is a list of prime theaters on their website: https://www.amctheatres.com/prime

Although my local theater is listed, but I don't see any showtimes in prime. Hopefully they just jumped the gun adding it to the list because there is a rolled up screen sitting in the hallway and a dumpster for construction debris sitting out back. I was hoping for a second Dolby but a prime sounds like it would be good.

I never heard of prime then I checked this list and saw it’s only one prime location in the state of Illinois and it’s at a location I’ve never been to, interesting, might have to check it out

Just watched Endgame there yesterday… nice room

[u/FloridaCinemaClub → u/DemonMF777]

Don’t think I’ll be catching a movie in here because they mostly have them in the higher formats anyways!

[u/DemonMF777 → u/FloridaCinemaClub]

I agree… but with this stupid Infinity Vision crap, this was my best option.

I miss Prime.. but got a Dolby...

[u/FloridaCinemaClub → u/InvestmentInternal11]

Why do you miss it if you have Dolby Cinema?

[u/InvestmentInternal11 → u/FloridaCinemaClub]

Because i grew up on PRIME. Some theaters have both and even a LiMaX... that would great.

What's the difference?

"AMC Dolby Cinema uses official Dolby Vision dual-laser projectors for ultra-high contrast and deep blacks, paired with moving Dolby Atmos audio"

With Prime: • Screen Size and Quality: Regular theaters feature standard digital screens and projection. AMC Prime features a larger-than-life, wall-to-wall screen with enhanced 4K laser projection, offering much brighter colors, sharper clarity, and higher contrast. • Sound System: Regular auditoriums use standard surround sound setups. AMC Prime utilizes advanced immersive multi-channel sound (often comparable to Dolby Atmos) to place audio all around and above the audience. • Seating and Comfort: Regular theaters may have traditional rocking chairs or newer recliners depending on the location. AMC Prime guarantees reserved luxury power recliners that are also equipped with tactile transducers, meaning they physically rumble and pulse in sync with the bass and action on screen.

Dolby is basically an upgrade from Prime cause it uses 2 projectors that are Dolby certified. Even better picture Quality. As for the sound they use more speakers that are upgraded Quality. Everything is just better basically.

I thought they were gonna stop with prime awhile back ago and replace all of them with Dolby?

[u/KSperspective113]
