2nd Opening


1st Opening
(1979-1989)
                                                                                                        [[File:79.jpg|thumb]]
Nicknames: "Hollywood Triumphance"
Logo: On a black background, a blue/yellow flash appears. 10 saturated black and white photographs of celebrities, popular in the New Hollywood era, zoom in on a blue circle outline while a white shine is revolving around the circle. After the last one (Charlie Chaplin) appears, the circle turns sideways revealing an outline of a projector. The shine starts to eliminate the outline and creates a red A in it's signature design. A filmstrip comes from the bottom and goes next to the A forming the outline of the M. the filmstrip gets removed and makes the M red. The same happens for the C except it comes from the top of the screen. Several white curved-edged rectangles zoom in around AMC and centers the logo. Stars appear on the bottom forming THEATRES. A bright light appears on the A and C. "Our Feature Presentation" fades in one by one with the music. That text is also blue. A bright light fades on the A and shines along with the M and C. The logo fades to black.
Variants:
Previews: A bright blue light appears with the text "Now Showing or Coming Soon to an AMC Theatre". This would show before the film, to advertise 3-4 trailers in the theater.
Silence is golden (This would show before the FP logo to remind people to be quiet in a movie theatre): The logo starts with the camera zooming in on a woman at her lips in black and white while her lips are red. She raises a finger to her lips and makes a shushing sound. She then brings it down. The logo cuts to the text "Shh!" on a black background in a red rectangle. "Silence" fades in on top of the rectangle while "Is Golden" fades in at the same time below the rectangle. The logo fades to AMC on a black background in it's font. "There Is A Difference!" is underneath the logo in yellow and a marquee font. The logo then fades out.
FX/SFX: Light flashes, photographs zoom in and a projector rotates, sparks form the AMC logo.
Music/Sounds: An abridged excerpt of the orchestral tune "Olympic Champion 1" by Keith Mansfield, 1978.
Availability: Extinct. Seen at numerous AMC cinemas from the time period. A few 35mm filmstrips have been found containing this logo.
Editor's Note: None.

Silence is golden: We start off on a black background. a spotlight, shinning is seen on the top of the screen, moving and looking at all directions. When it gets to the middle, the spotlight falls down and the lights turn on to reveal film-man who wakes up confused and has fell into a pile of filmreels on a red floor and background. "Silence is golden" fades in on the top in gold with the same star effect from the 1st logo. He then gives a sigh expression. The logo slowly fades out where you could barely see film-man as the text saying " We appreciate your cooperation in supporting a quiet moviegoing environment". The logo then fades out.

Previews: We start by zooming into the theater without film- man at the stand. The camera zooms through the top and to a AMC sign in the same font as the FP logo but with the copyright symbol. " Previews" in yellow cursive lights up on the sign. The logo cuts to black.
 
In 1998, an anniversary FP logo is used celebrating a century of movies: It starts by showing a picture of AMC in it's FP form with "Salutes" underneath is silver on a black background. It then cuts to another set of text in yellow saying:

Another set of text fades in on top saying: "Celebrating A Century Of American Cinema". It cuts to a clip (unknown film) where (unknown character) says: "Lets all, go to the movies!" It then fades to a footage of an Marquee saying: RADIO CITY music all in red. It cuts to an AMC theatres sign transfering form daytime to nighttime Where the outline of AMC glows yellow. It then cuts to an updated footage of the 2nd logo without the popcorn popping. It cuts to a movie theatre timelapse of people filling up the seats.It cuts to a group of people, a couple with the husband feeding popcorn to the wife, another couple kissing, and the audience clapping. Then a film starts to play and the audience reacts to it. Here it is in order:

Previews: We start off on a purple gradient background as we see film-man holding a bubble, levitating on a set of purple, blue, and yellow rings. He turns around facing the camera. He is now making the bubble levitate along with the rings. He walks away as the rings rise up out of the screen and the bubble levitating. The AMC logo is drawn in along with it's decorations. The bubble zooms in and "Coming soon" fades in on top of the text. The logo then fades out.
Silence is golden: We start off by seeing a blue wavelength that starts moving. A green wavelength joins in and starts moving as the sounds start to get loud. It gets even more louder when a red wavelength is added as they start to bring brightness to the screen. Then, they stop and turn into a white line. Above the line, "Please, don't spoil the movie" fades in as a white text. "by adding your own soundtrack." fades in below the line. A big flash appears as we see the text "Silence is golden (R)" on a purple gradient background. The text moves to the top as the AMC logo is drawn in with the same with the last few seconds of the FP and previews logo. The "Silence is golden" text shines. The logo fades out.

Previews: We start off with a view of a starry night sky. The camera pans down to reveal the three people from before entering the theatre with AMC on top of the marquee, letters spaced out and "Coming soon" written on the marquee. The logo fades out.
 
Silence is golden: There is no personal logo for this but has an animation for with upcoming films of the time (The Muppets, Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted, The Lorax, etc.): We start off by seeing "Resist the urge" comes in as " Don't talk or text during the movie" appears underneath with a speech bubble appearing in talk and text being typed in. A cell phone provider (Sprint or AT&T) with their logo and slogan appears on the bottom. Then, we see the AMC logo fly in with the text white on a red circle and stamps on the left side and the black outline spins for a couple of seconds. This would happen on a black or white background.
