MoviePass and the AMC Theatres chain have never exactly enjoyed a rosy relationship, and the latest step in their conflict came today, as MoviePass pulled support from some of the chain’s most high-profile locations. Deadline reports that the service is no longer supporting ticket purchases at theaters like the AMC Empire 25 in New York, Universal City Walk near Los Angeles, and the AMC Loews Boston Common.
Whomp whomp. And based on some comments by MoviePass customer service, I have a feeling pulling out from AMC altogether isn't far behind. MoviePass is trying to strong-arm AMC into giving them a percentage of ticket sales.
