'''Logo:''' We start off with people gathered inside at an AMC theater. The camera focuses on 3 people: On the right is a girl with long blonde hair wearing a {{color|lightblue|light blue}} shirt, a {{color|brown}} coat, {{color|brown}} pants, and holding an AMC branded drink. In the middle is a dark colored girl with black puffy hair wearing a {{color|pink}} T-shirt, a white shirt, {{color|gray}} pants, and holding an AMC branded bag of popcorn. On the right is a slightly dark boy with black short hair wearing a {{color|blue}} T-shirt, a white hoodie, black pants, and holding a drink and a bag of popcorn, both AMC branded. The camera zooms in on the girl on the left taking a zip from the drink. Vines start growing from behind the seat. The camera cuts to an angle from the girl where the people behind them disappear and trees grow in the back. The ground starts growing grass as vines grow along the seats and grass grows out of them while a firefly flies around her. The screen fades away as the roof unfolds to starry night sky. The camera cuts to the ground where the seats in front of them fold into the ground and grass grows on top. The camera cuts to the front view of the people as flowers of all colors start blooming in front of them. The three people start getting lifted from the ground in their seats by wood. The camera cuts to the girl on the left smiling while fireflies fly around her as she is getting lifted. The camera cuts to the boy on the right smiling and taking a drink while fireflies fly around him. The camera zooms out far to reveal them risen in the air watching over the hills as "AMC" in white appears in the sky over a city with the sun setting. More flowers appear on the bottom right hand corner and move like filmstrips. The logo cuts to black. | '''Logo:''' We start off with people gathered inside at an AMC theater.

'''Previews Variant''': The camera pans down from a starry night sky 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. | '''Previews Variant''': The camera pans down from a starry night sky 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.

'''Technique:''' CGI made using Autodesk Maya mixed with live action. The CGI was provided by [[Reel FX Animation Studios]]' advertising studio Radium (which has since been renamed to match the rest of the studio). The mechanics of the moving seats, which were real, were done by Reel EFX (a separate, coincidentally named company). | '''Technique:''' CGI made using Autodesk Maya mixed with live action.

The live-action footage of the theater (for the previews variant) is filmed outside the Steven J. Ross Theater from Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California. | ||
'''Music/Sounds:''' A dreamy chime theme is heard at the beginning, which then rouses into a held wind sound. This is followed by a majestic-sounding fanfare with the sound of whooshes and the roots growing and creaking noises. Sounds of nature then accompany the fanfare along with sparkling. When the AMC logo is shown, the fanfare settles into a dramatic-sounding finish. Frank Salazar was director of the audio, with Frank Pittenger and TJ Callaway also working on it. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A dreamy chime theme is heard at the beginning, which then rouses into a held wind sound.

* '''Comedy (Welcome):''' An AMC circle logo appears on a white background, then becomes the logo on a car driven by a male and female dot through the woods. A bear dot reveals itself and the two dots swerve away from the bear. When the dots look behind them a couple of seconds later, they find the bear in their car and panic. The car and bear drive away, and the AMC Amazing logo appears in the sky as it fades to black. The AMC logo moves to the center. | * '''Comedy (Welcome):''' An AMC circle logo appears on a white background, then becomes the logo on a car driven by a male and female dot through the woods.

* '''Comedy (Policy Trailer):''' The AMC logo turns into the female dot walking a phone with a red dog's face on it. After a car passes, the dog starts getting motivated and starts chasing after it.

After a car passes, the dog starts getting motivated and starts chasing after it. The length of the leash starts to pull the dot after it, and after a couple of seconds, the car drives away. We fade to a shot of the dog on the Danny DeVito-like dot's lawn, with abbreviations such as "Lol", "brb" and others on the lawn. After the dog exits the screen, the dot stops reading, notices the abbreviations, and becomes angry. The dog stops for a minute and starts going off track. It notices a big bear dot which it takes a picture of. The bear dot gets satisfied and sniffs it. We then see the bear taking its place as the dog with the leash in its mouth. It then transitions to the AMC logo on a black background. | ||
* '''Comedy (Emergency Exit):''' The AMC logo turns into a keychain on the pair's car, driving across a mountain. The male dot bumps the car left, then the female bumps the car right. The car causes a gang to fall off their motorcycles, then they go after them, which the pair notices as they're in a tunnel. The pair and gang exit the tunnel and pass a family of five dots at a bus stop ("Report suspicious characters"). The pair move past a herd of cows at the road, which the gang thrusts into the air in a slow-motion shot ("Keep track of your stuff"). Some of the cows end up on motorcycles and pass by "Watch your step". The road splits into north, west and east directions with a sign displaying "Front, Left, Behind, Right"; three out of five riders take the north path. A cow lands onto a biker's two-seated motorcycle. Five riders drive into the night under "Exit the building", and the camera pans towards the moon, which dissolves to an AMC logo on a black background. | * '''Comedy (Emergency Exit):''' The AMC logo turns into a keychain on the pair's car, driving across a mountain.

* '''Comedy (End Tag):''' On a black-tinted tiled floor, a red dot with a towel wrapped around it walks in from the left. It briefly looks at the viewer then does a double take as it jumps in surprise and runs back to the left, with the towel coming loose from it. The text "You still here?" is revealed from the towel as the dot leans in from off-screen and goes back. The text turns down and reveals "You should join", followed by the AMC Stubs logo. The dot comes back, takes out an oversized toothbrush, and drags the towel offscreen with it. The URL bumps up the AMC Stubs logo as the dot returns with the towel wrapped around it again, walking to the right. It leans, jumps in surprise, and disappears again with it. | * '''Comedy (End Tag):''' On a black-tinted tiled floor, a red dot with a towel wrapped around it walks in from the left.

* '''Comedy (Welcome):''' Begins with a synth tap. As we zoom out from the car, we hear the sound of it driving and a person whistling. After this, we hear the sound of a shocked bear roaring, combined with a person gasping and another person yelping. We hear the thumping noise as it falls out, along with stomping noises. When the bear chases the car, we hear the people gasping, screaming and the bear roaring behind them. A country-style tune plays throughout this segment, which later fades out. The announcer says "You won't need a phone where you're going. You are now entering AMC Amazing." | * '''Comedy (Welcome):''' Begins with a synth tap.

A voice saying "Whoa!" can be heard. The music turns into a pounding rock theme as the motorcyclists line up and drive away, followed by the sounds of the motorcycles revving. This is combined with the sound of the car. We hear the people cheering as they all drive past them. When the car approaches the cows, the tires skid, followed by the cows mooing. We hear the cows being bashed. The music lowers in volume when they fly to make room for the announcer. A cow moo can be heard after she speaks. We then just hear the music and the motorcycles driving until the cow lands on one of the motorcycles, where we hear one last moo before the music continues and eventually fades out. The announcer says "Let's get this show on the road... with a few safety tips! Report suspicious characters. Keep track of your stuff. And in case of cow collisions or other emergencies, watch your step and walk to the nearest exit, which may be in front of you, behind you, or on either side. Then exit the building, and keep on moving, baby!" | ||
* '''Horror (Welcome):''' A low "thoom" noise is heard. Then, a loud thunderclap interrupts the ambience, followed by an eerie track with the sound of mosquitoes buzzing and the dock creaking. 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. The announcer says "Honey, I'd beware if I were you. Welcome to the spine-tingling world of AMC Amazing." | * '''Horror (Welcome):''' A low "thoom" noise is heard.
