===1st Opening===
===1st Opening (1979-1989)===


TBA
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: TBA
