'''Logo:''' We pan up from the ground to see a radio transmitter, a mountain and rays in the background. Suddenly, red and cyan lines streak past the environment and we zoom forward to reveal a city below the mountain, in which the lines are heading to. We cut up from a bird's eye view of the city and the lines streaking down, and then to another view of the city with the lines heading to the right and past the city. The red line forms a circle and the AMC wordmark fades in. Then a cyan light shines on the red circle, and the red lines streak out of the circle and wraps to head to the right. The lines then streak up to the sky and we cut to some words such as "KEEP AN EYE", "ON YOUR", and "VALUABLES", as the red lines (now joined by some yellow-orange lines) streak past the words. We then cut to another shot of the city with viruses in the sky and "REPORT SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOR" in three lines. The red lines then head past the viruses, and then we dip down and then back up to see the red lines go past the word "FRONT". "LEFT" fades in just as the red lines branches, U-turns and head forward. We then see them head past the words "WALK", "TO", and "SAFETY". We then cut to the lines heading past the city and go straight for the sky, as it streaks up with cyan around it, and we transition to space, where we pan over to a view of the Earth, as the lines can be seen heading behind the Earth. Some more then head forward, going past the United States and turning it red. Light grows from it which covers the screen. We then see live-action shots of people as they walk to the cashier. She presents a phone with a QR code inside, which transitions to a digital clock as red lines streak out of it. We then see a woman clicking the Cherry Coca-Cola flavor on the Freestyle machine, as red lines head past the soda being made in a glass with the Coca-Cola logo engraved on it. She then recieves the soda while two other people hold popcorn and other drinks. We then see an alcoholic beverage (it seems) being made by a bartender while red and cyan lines streak past it. We then cut to a scene of the trio inside the theater. The lines go inside a button inside a seat. The movie controls then turn on and the AMC logo zooms from the right to the center, as the lines streak past and disappear. The ending appears on a space-like background with several lighter blue streaks. The lines streak past some letters into the MPAA rating screen with the letters forming "ACCOMPANY THIS FEATURE".

'''Variant:''' For AMC's 100th anniversary in 2020, the trailer was heavily modified. After the circle around "AMC" is made, a bright flash engulfs the screen, revealing "CELEBRATING A CENTURY OF MOVIES" and "1920-2020" below the AMC logo, from parting searchlights. The trailer plays as normal until we get to the part where the camera gets to space. After we pan around the Earth, a silver star circumnavigates along with it and zooms into the camera (thus, all of the live-action parts are cut out), making the screen brighten. As we zoom into the star, we zoom through a crystalized vortex as an Instagram review (along with other reviews, which rapidly zoom past the camera) forms in the distance. Particles form the type "#1" in a regular font, which we zoom through. We then see the AMC Stubs logo on top of a line with "A★LIST" in Times New Roman, all in silver. We pan up to reveal the text "See Up To 3 Movies Every Week" (with "Up" and "To" stacked on top of each other). The camera then pans to the left where we see all of AMC's subsidiarial feature logos ([[Dolby Digital Cinema|Dolby Cinema]], [[IMAX Corporation|IMAX]], [[RealD 3D]], and [[Prime at AMC|PRIME]]) fading in one after the other. The text "ALL FORMATS INCLUDED" in Century Gothic is seen below, along with copyright notices for their respective companies. After the PRIME at AMC logo fades out, the camera pans to the bottom-right corner where we see a top view of a bag of popcorn on the bottom-left and the top of a cup of Coca-Cola on the top-right (with the Coca-Cola logo on it). In the middle of all of this is the text "FREE Size Upgrades" and "On Popcorn & Fountain Drinks" in sparkling silver (with "FREE" being on top of "Size Upgrades" and "On Popcorn & Fountain Drinks" being on the bottom and smaller than the rest of the text) with copyright notices on the bottom-right. After the popcorn and Coca-Cola pulsates once, the camera pans to the top-left where we see a phone with AMC Stubs points on it. The text "$5 Reward For Every $50 Spent" (with the dollar signs being very small and placed on the corner of the numbers and with "For Every $50 Spent being smaller than the rest of the text) and a notice is seen. The phone flips to the left and reveals the text "FREE Online Movie Reservations". The phone now has the AMC website screen on it. As everything then zooms in, the background starts to spin and turn green. Then the MPAA band screen segueation commences, but with a difference: The transition is now built to reflect on the MPAA band screen change. The transparent MPAA globe logo fades in at the center of the screen, the three "MPA" letters hang down, the MPAA globe logo turns in on top of it, and the two URLs fade in and slide up.

'''Logo:''' Under a night sky, we see the AMC logo reflected in a puddle. A foot wearing high-heeled shoes steps in it causing it to ripple. We then cut to a shot of a blond-haired woman with a {{color|tan|beige}} raincoat and a blue strap shirt (Academy Award winner Nicole Kidman) who takes off her hood and stands in front of the theater. She is then shown walking down a bright {{color|gray}} hallway with numbers listed on the walls. We then cut to her entering an auditorium with the AMC logo on the wall and steps with {{color|gold}} lights on the slats. We cut to a shot of her walking up the stairs, then to multiple side views of her. Before she sits down, the auditorium goes dark. We see a projector turned on and playing a movie clip (from ''Jurassic World'') and cut to a shot of the clip shining behind her. The camera cuts to a view of the movie screen (which is playing ''Wonder Woman'' (2017)). Kidman then sits in her seat and crosses her legs as a clip from ''La La Land'' is shown on the screen. After we see Kidman with an uninspired-looking face, we see a clip from ''Creed'' being on a collective shot. We see more panning shots of Kidman, and we finally end with the "AMC THEATRES" logo glowing over an iris-like background. The slogan "WE MAKE MOVIES BETTER" fades in below the logo.

'''Technique:''' Live action, with CGI for the logo at the end.

'''Music/Sounds:''' Throughout the whole trailer, we hear a somber, yet powerful-sounding piano/orchestral tune. In the middle of all this, we hear Kidman say: "We come to this place for magic. We come to AMC Theaters to laugh, to cry, to care because we need them. All of us. That indescribable feeling we get when the lights begin to dim. And we go somewhere we've never been before. Not just entertained, but somehow reborn. Together. Dazzling images on a huge silver screen. Sound that I can feel. Somehow, heartbreak feels good. Our heroes feel like the best part of us, and stories feel perfect and powerful. Because here, they are. AMC Theaters. We make moves better."

'''Availability:''' Currently in use at AMC theatres, typically playing after the 2019 post-trailers bumper and during commercial breaks on TV networks.
