===6th Opening (1994-1998)===

===7th Opening (1998-November 2002)===

'''Visuals:''' An assortment of themed circles are shown, among them an AMC logo, then the screen jolts towards the logo. "'''Keep track''' of your stuff. '''Report''' suspicious characters." appears to the left of the AMC logo, with the bolded text flying to near the fading text. The text jolts off to the left as "EXIT" appears on the circle. "Find the '''exit''' that's closest to you." appears to the right. Four angle brackets appear over the circle. The screen zooms to another dot depicting stadium seating. "'''Watch''' your step. '''Walk,''' don't run." appears in the top left. The text spins away as a smile appears on the circle with "'''Enjoy''' the show" to the right and the screen slowly zooms in. A red circle moves away from the screen as the "amc amazing" text attaches itself into position and tilts a little.

'''Audio:''' At the beginning of every trailer for the AMC logo, is the sound of a light being turned on and the faint sound of buzzing. A whoosh is heard when the camera pans down from the logo, and more whooshes are heard whenever the camera zooms through, past, or away from something in the trailers.

===14th Openings (Fall 2017-March 2024)===

=== 16th Opening (Enjoy the Magic) (March 8, 2024-) ===

* '''Coming Soon:''' The sequence starts with the creation of a spark. Then it pans to another spark and a cosmic explosion occurs, transitioning to someone writing on sticky notes, zooming to the end of a  movie script. It transitions to a clapperboard and light moving out of frame, revealing a soundboard and screens displaying older AMC pre-show videos above it. A lens flare segues thrice to a conductor conducting an orchestra, a zoom away from the Hollywood sign, and a wide shot of the area with fireworks. The screen backs into a building with the AMC wordmark, then the text "THEATRES" shines into view. It zooms out, showing a shining movie projector and a man on the left while "WE MAKE MOVIES BETTER" appears word by word. Another shot of the projector shows it projecting onto an auditorium screen eight images, among them moviegoers feeling delighted around an AMC theatre, an AMC employee, a woman pouring a bucket of popcorn, and viewers stunned by the presentation. The screen backs away from the projector as it continues displaying glowing imagery, and more people enter the auditorium. "REPORT SUSPICIOUS BEHAVOR" slides in as Clip appears briefly on the auditorium screen. "KEEP TRACK OF YOUR VALUABLES" slides to the right of a phone in a cupholder, and "FIND THE EXIT CLOSEST TO YOU" slides to the left of an exit sign. "WATCH YOUR STEP" appears in the center as the screen moves down auditorium steps that glow. A shot of the auditorium panning to the right is stopped by a fierce glow, fading to three receptacles on the way out and "THANK YOU" appearing above them. Another lens flare segues to a pan down a CG current AMC auditorium hallway. The AMC Investors Connect logo shines in and fades out before the camera moves into a poster with the AMC Stubs logo on it. The logo appears over a multicolored crystal-like space and slowly backs away, eventually seeing "HAS OPTIONS FOR '''EVERYONE'''" appear under it. The environment turns blue as the logo becomes the AMC Stubs Insider logo with "JOIN FOR '''FREE'''" below. The text becomes "EARN '''POINTS''' FOR '''$5 REWARDS'''" then "SAVE WEEKLY ON '''DISCOUNT TUESDAYS'''" with "JOIN TODAY AT '''AMCSTUBS.COM'''" below. The space turns orange as "INSIDER" becomes "PREMIERE" and the middle text is "NEVER PAY ONLINE '''TICKET FEES'''", then "EARN '''$5 REWARDS 5X FASTER''' THAN INSIDERS" as the bottom text disappears. From many stars forming the shape of one, one becomes the star in the AMC Stubs A-List logo as the background becomes red and reflects a phone on the AMC Stubs app. Below the logo is "SEE UP TO '''3 MOVIES EVERY WEEK''' IN ANY FORMAT", logos for AMC's premium formats (including Laser at AMC), and fine print. All of this disperses for "MAKE '''FREE''' TICKET '''RESERVATIONS''' ONLINE". This screen disintegrates and "COMING SOON" appears over a gray space which also dissolves away; "COMING SOON" slowly fades out.

 

* '''Feature Presentation:''' The scene pans down a detailed space environment towards a nebula shooting out bursts of light. The camera follows one burst high into the sky, then fades to a pan towards the Hollywood sign later at night with more fireworks. A pair of spotlights transition to a space background and the Hollywood sign fades away. "Silence is Golden" in its usual font appears word by word as the screen zooms out, showing the scene on an auditorium screen. "DON'T TEXT" appears over the screen, then the last word changes to "POST" and "TALK" before the text fades out, revealing some people in the auditorium using smartphones which are turned off. The auditorium fades away as the aura of space overtakes the screen. A row of seated people are seen, then the screen zooms towards a black man with popcorn and Coca-Cola can. As the man takes a bite of his popcorn, he is suddenly transported to an alleyway with people dancing, and he drinks a Coca-Cola bottle. A female dancer with sunglasses glances at the man and he finds himself dancing. The female nods at the man, then the screen zooms past her to the man driving in a city in a car with his bottle, being chased by another car driven by the female without sunglasses, who winks. The man finds the woman in an ancient town, and they look towards each other only for the woman to notice his Coke and sip from it. Back in the theater, the man finds a woman to the left sipping from a Coca-Cola cup, and they, along with others in the auditorium, settle down as "ENJOY THE MAGIC" appears above them.
