# On a white background, the AMC logo in a red circle zooms in. After a few seconds, it zooms and takes up the whole screen, with it flapping in the process. We then see many red circles with military hats and glasses hanging on to falling parachutes over a dark landscape with hills at night. A small UFO flies past the camera firing lasers which destroy the parachutes. We see more UFOs destroying parachutes in an overhead shot. We cut back to the previous shot where one of the balls stretches in an alarmed manner and is taken by one of the UFOs, with the parachute clinging on to its front. The UFO comes loose and crashes down to the ground, turning upside-down. The scene cuts to an overhead shot where the background disappears, and the red text "amazing" is seen on the side. The UFO turns over, with its bottom side revealed to be the AMC logo. The "amazing" text wipes out, and the logo centers itself in the middle. The AMC logo turns down and the UFO flies off. We see another view of circles with horns, a tail, and a ring within its nose holes (resembling cows) at night. One of the cows is abducted into the UFO, where it sticks it to its bottom, then sucks it in. The UFO flies off and the screen quickly slides to the right, revealing the text "Keep track of your stuff". A squadron of helicopters fly over a distant hill, with the camera turning upward as they get closer. They are all revealed to be flying towards a giant circular robot with mechanical arms and legs, a quarter of the top cut off emitting a light, and an antennae on top (it looks similar to Romeo's giant robot from ''PJ Masks'') which grabs one of the helicopters. A couple ninjas hanging from ropes stuck to the landing feet of the helicopters swings off of them while other correspond with the action. It cuts to a ground view where a ninja lands and speeds off. The text "Report suspicious characters" is seen above. The helicopters fly over as vikings with wings, horns, axes and shields run in from the left. More ninjas drop down and zoom away. They are all revealed to be running towards the giant robot, which throws the helicopter it caught earlier at them, knocking the surrounding characters out and kicking up a volatile dust cloud. The robot then raises its foot and stomps down on the ground, which the vikings narrowly avoid and use their weapons against. The foot raises to reveal the text "Watch your step" and the vikings run after it. Another set of text, "walk", is standing on the ground. The robot steps over it (squishing some characters in the process), and the characters run through holes in the text. The helicopters fly over the text and intercourse within direction. All of this is revealed to be happening on a theater screen, with the text "Front, Behind, Left, Right" displayed on the screen. Two doors open on both sides of the theater, with red lights activating on top of them. The characters in their seats (with bags of popcorn nested in some) motion themselves towards the exit and walk out of the theater (an AMC theater in this case) with the text "Exit the building" and "move far away" on it, where the robot is now looming over it with helicopters flying in the background. The robot raises its fist and reaches into the theater, where in another shot, it grabs the popcorn machine, which it dumps into a rectangular hole (presumably its mouth) along with the machine itself. A helicopter flies past the camera, transitioning the screen into the AMC logo on a black background. A spark circles around the logo and breaks it off, emitting a light that contains a trooper with triple night-vision goggles and a rope hanging out. The dot leaps at the screen, revealing the hole to be the Moon. The screen zooms out to show two dots (one with a pompadour and large lips on the left and one with curly hair and larger lips on the right) in a rowboat sailing down a river. They kiss, and many dots with hearts on them swirl around at the viewer, transitioning to a shot of a dot wearing a Jason Voorhees-style mask waving a chainsaw around which cuts the surrounding dots in half. The dot gets a pie to the face, blacking out the hole. The dot then turns into a laughing mouth. The camera zooms into his mouth, and the text "coming soon" follows suit. After this, the text makes a transition to an MPAA band trailer or ending entirely. | # (Action/Sci-Fi) On a white background, the AMC logo in a red circle zooms in.

# The AMC logo zooms in on a white background. Instead of zooming towards us and flapping like a blanket, it gains a shine and a silver rim and is revealed to be the emblem of a small car driving down a highway at night. Two dots (one with a mohawk and glasses on the left seat and another with a striped cap and strings of hair peeking on the right) are in the car and they are both not keeping their eyes on the road. In another shot, we see a bear-like dot standing on the road, shocked, which the car narrowly misses, causing the mohawk dot to drop its phone. They look back and scream in terror as the bear is revealed to be chasing after them. We cut to a shot of the car and the bear speeding away, and the camera pans up to reveal the "AMC amazing" logo. The "amazing" text wipes out, like the 1st variant. The AMC logo turns into a dangling chain on the car's mirror, where the drivers are now going across the edge of a cliff. They briefly push each other around before zooming past a line of motorcyclers. They get on their motorcycles, line up vertically and speed off, where the drivers are now going through a tunnel with the motorcyclers being reflected in the mirror (if you notice, the AMC chain on the mirror is gone). We see a shot where the motorcyclers pass the screen one-by-one. The camera zooms through the shocked drivers' car, while the motorcyclers follow suit. As they speed down a road, a row of cheering dots with different hairstyles and accessories is seen on the side of the road with a bus stop sign next to them. The text "Report suspicious characters" is seen above. The car zooms down the road before they abruptly notice a bunch of the cow dots standing in the way. The car narrowly misses them in a curvy line, while the motorcyclers bash them out of the way at high speed. As the cows and motorcyclers fly through the air, the text "Keep track of your stuff" is seen as the closest cow moves out of the way for it. The motorcyclers fall back down (with two of the cows landing on two of the motorcycles) and speed off while the text "Watch your step" is seen zooming away from the camera's speed. The motorcyclers (and cows) come across a four-way split of the road, with signs saying "Front", "Left", "Behind", and "Right" on each one. They go separate ways and we cut to another shot of them riding towards us. Suddenly, a cow falls and startles one of the cyclers, with it landing on the platform attached to it. They both look at each other with confused expressions. The motorcyclers and cows speed off onto a hill as the text "Exit the building" settles above. The camera pans upward and the large Moon turns into the AMC logo. Then, the animation from the end of the 1st variant plays. | # (Comedy) The AMC logo zooms in on a white background.

# ( | # (Horror) The AMC logo zooms in on a white background once again. The logo then morphs into a dot with a Danny DeVito-like hairstyle and glasses walking on a dock on top of reeds and mist with many spooky trees and mosquitoes in the background. One of the mosquitoes lands on the top of its head and starts sucking its blood, causing him to lighten and squish. The (now enormous) mosquito flies away (revealing a large, cloud-covered Moon in the sky) and drops down where the background disappears and the "AMC amazing" logo is seen. Like the other two trailers, the "amazing" text wipes out, but the AMC logo now morphs into a girl with circular earrings, lips and a ponytail. She trots towards the screen in a haunted house as a flash of lightning occurs outside. She gets startled and looks behind her to see a red dot swiftly pass by the top of a staircase. She looks around and the furniture (including the stool) is now rocking back and forth. They then, like a magnet, stick to the ceiling as the text "Keep track of your stuff" in a more liquified version of the text is revealed. The dot then steps back, screams loudly and runs down the hallway behind her, as lightning is now constantly flickering every second. The camera zooms to a fork in the hallway as two dots with the same hairstyles (a reference to ''The Shining'') are seen. The dot screams again and comes to a red, static TV (a reference to ''The Ring'') with a paranoid expression. A flash of lightning illuminates a figure in the distant hall beside her. The text "Report suspicious characters" forms on the TV. The girl gets startled, and the scene cuts to a cellar door opening, releasing a red glow and thick mist. The girl screams again as she is sucked into a cellar door beside her. She falls and thumps her head on a platform outside, tumbles down a hill and into a dug hole in a graveyard. The camera pans up and reveals the text "Watch your step" engraved on a tombstone. The girl manages to slip out of the hole as zombie dots start to rise around her. They emerge from gravestones with "Front", "Left", "Behind", and "Right" embedded on them. She stops at the last grave, turns around and screams at the zombie dot (with its eye whipped out from the socket). The girl then runs away screaming in absolute terror as the text "move far away" (with the "o" being a zombie) above. The camera pans up through the trees and reveals the AMC logo. Then, the animations from the end of the 1st and 2nd variants play as normal. | ||

* On a futuristic platform with red mist glowing below it, six red dots (all with military hats and glasses, two flying with jetpacks and the latter four in a diamond organization on the platform) are seen on it. A Coca-Cola cup flies in carried by three helicopter dots and is inserted into a glowing light in the opening of the platform. Red dots surrounding the platform now glow in a synchronized pattern as the cup is inserted. A plastic lid, carried by six helicopters, is flying around with the giant robot from the regular trailer posing on it. A straw is carried from the mist and inserted into the cup's hole by the robot (which he spins around for a second). The robot gives an "all-clear!" symbol with its thumb, and is carried away by the six helicopters. The background changes for a second to reveal the cup being taken out by the girl (along with many other characters) from the "Halloween" trailer which she sips from. The projector turns on, and the camera then cuts to a shot of the theater screen where the text "It's movie time!" is seen with the "AMC amazing" logo below it. | |||

During the "coming soon" segment, we hear a loud sparking sound and a sonic whoosh. A buzzing noise as the dot leaps at the camera. A stock sound of an owl along with faint sounds of the water, as well as a harp arpeggio with the sound of kissing. The sound of balls filling, which is jarringly interrupted with a dramatic note with the sound of a woman screaming and chainsaw buzzing. The chaos is interrupted with a pie splat. After this, the sound of the plate falling and a woman laughing. Final whooshes close out the trailer. | ||

A synth bang followed by slurping sounds and a shrill note is then heard. We hear a pop noise and a "slurp" as the dot slumps to the ground, followed by buzzing sounds. Faint "putt-putt" noises can be heard. After the AMC Amazing logo wipes away, we hear quiet footstep noises, followed by a crack of thunder. The girl gasps as she looks behind. More cracks of thunder are heard with the sounds of the furniture rocking and crashing with the sound of the girl gasping. A low synth drone is heard, followed by the sounds of the girl screaming loudly. A quick whoosh is heard. Another scream from the girl. Static sounds are heard from the TV as another loud crack of thunder is heard. Banging noises are heard as the cellar opens up, and another scream from the girl is heard followed by the door closing. She screams more as thumping is heard. Cracks of thunder. Groans from the zombies are heard as they rise out.

* Many characters from the previous trailers (along with a jetpack dot from the previous trailer's Coca-Cola variant) are running towards a "Coca-Cola freestyle" machine (a machine in which you can dispense any drink from any Coca-Cola brand and variant). The jetpack dot flies around and selects Sprite Zero-Sugar Grape, in which he pushes the "POUR" button and the drink is dispensed. The dot grabs it and drinks, causing him to teleport out of view. As two helicopters fly overhead, the characters take notice (along with three ninjas that swoop down) and all go for the machine. One of the ninjas selects Coca-Cola Cherry and drinks it, causing him to teleport through a hyper-space tunnel into a theater. Other characters teleport in, and the camera cuts to the same ending shot from the 1st trailer variant. | |||
