AMC Theatres Invites Moviegoers to Take the ETX Challenge at AMC NorthPark 15
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - AMC Theatres, a leading theatrical exhibition and entertainment company,
recently launched the ETX Challenge at AMC NorthPark 15 - a
money-back guarantee for guests who watch a movie in AMC's innovative
Enhanced Theatre Experience (ETX) premium format.
ETX was introduced in theatres across the country last year, including
AMC NorthPark 15. The premium format offers moviegoers state-of-the-art
sound quality. In addition to a screen that's 20-percent larger, ETX
delivers sound through a whopping 13 different speakers, ideal for the
sounds and effects of action movies. ETX's brilliant sound clarity
evokes every whisper and subtle effect. ETX sound surrounds the movie
watcher on all sides, bringing them ever closer to the action.
Through the end of August, if a guest is not completely satisfied that
ETX delivers crystal-clear sound and a better experience, he or she can
visit the guest services station after the movie to receive a refund of
the premium experience charge. As an added incentive, any guest who sees
an ETX movie in July can enjoy a fountain drink for just $1 when seeing
an ETX movie in August.
"ETX isn't just about loud, it's about clear," said Stephen Colanero,
chief marketing officer at AMC Theatres. "We've selected only those
movies that become even more impactful when shown in ETX format. We've
received strong reviews from guests who experienced ETX, and we wanted
to make an offer to all guests, encouraging them to try it out. We're
confident they will immediately notice the difference when they see
these great movies in ETX."
The summer's line-up of ETX movies includes highly anticipated movies
like HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS - PART 2, CAPTAIN
AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER and COWBOYS & ALIENS.
The ETX Challenge runs through the August 31, 2011. For more
