The camera gets a close up into the logo, then cuts to "AMC" in its font from the last logo on a gold sign. It then cuts to a girl in the lobby, wearing a uniform, speaking into the microphone. It then cuts to a couple across from the girl working. It cuts to the movie ticket printing out and a hand grabbing it. The person hands it over to an usher letting them in. It cuts to them buying some popcorn at a stand inside the theater with another worker talking to them. It cuts back to the two who grab the popcorn bucket. It then cuts to a close up of popcorn popping and popcorn in its bucket. The two then walk away with the popcorn and go inside the cinema. Inside, other people are sitting down from old to young. They then put down their drink and cuts to another couple kissing and a family with a little girl smiling. It then cuts to the screen where "A", "M", and "C" fade in time with the music along with the (R) symbol on the side all in chrome. The logo shines while "There is a difference" in cursive is being written below. The logo fades to black and "Feature Presentation" fades in written in cursive and fades out. | ||
'''Previews Variant:''' On a black background, "There is a difference" in cursive fades in one by one. Then, it cuts out and starts zooming out from the back of the "A" from "AMC" flipped. The logo turns 180 degrees in the same "AMC" from an angle and a different chrome color shining. "PREVIEWS" zooms in under the logo and fades to black. | '''Previews Variant:''' On a black background, "There is a difference" in cursive fades in one by one.

'''Visuals:''' The sequence starts by fading into a shot of a film case with "AMC" with a red outline on top. A label below reads "Feature Pres." while a spotlight shines on it. The camera zooms out while the case spins and shakes. The case pops open while an anthropomorphic figure made of filmstrips (named Clip, who was AMC's mascot from 1991 to 2009) flies out. He flips and lands while he is shaking his head. He waves his film hand at the case as a film reel pops out and bounces with him while he walks on the purple floor. While they are walking, a film reel is shown sideways behind them with the text saying "{{font|serif|There is a Difference}}". Clip jumps and when he lands, he waves his film hand around him leaving a trail of blue light. The camera cuts to the floor turning sideways as he jumps on the film reel and flies away. While that is happening, the AMC logo begins to draw itself in from left to right. A few more circles of {{color|gold|yellow}} and red appear on the bottom right of the screen.

A gold rectangle flies in from the bottom with the text "Feature Presentation" on it. The copyright mark appears of at the end of the "C". Clip flies past the logo and through the screen leaving a trail of stars behind. | ||
'''Previews Variant:''' The screen pans over the same film case described above. Meanwhile, a rolled label falls down onto the canister. As it lands, the label unrolls itself right below the AMC logo, revealing the word "PREVIEWS". | '''Previews Variant:''' The screen pans over the same film case described above.

The building is all golden film reels with filmstrips moving from many film cameras on the sides. There is also film reels moving on the ceiling. In the far distance, "AMC" is shown under spotlights while "THERE IS A DIFFERENCE" is shown underneath while filmstrips pass over it. Clip stops in front of the camera and starts flexing his film arms. He leans on the right side and falls off the film reel as it races to catch him. The camera cuts to a hole where filmstrips circle around and lights are shown. Clip is still falling and the film reel races to catch him. The camera cuts again to the same room in the beginning but zoomed in. The film reel positions itself as Clip falls onto it. He gets up with a sigh of relief. While that is happening, "AMC" in gold lines is drawn in from the bottom behind him. A red outline drops in behind the text and the logo is drawn a thicker red outline. Clip then flies from right to left while "Feature Presentation" pops in one by one. The (C) symbol appears again beside the C. Like the last logo, Clip flies past the logo and through the screen. The logo fades out. | ||
'''Previews Variant:''' The sequence starts off by fading into a purple gradient background. A cup of [[Coca-Cola]] is shown as the camera pans up, there is that the cup has a straw and the cup is full of the drink. The drink is getting sucked in the straw as the camera pans up to see Clip sitting on the film reel drinking from the straw. He gets surprised and gives a sighed expression. The camera starts to pan up as Clip stands up and flies away, leaving a star trail behind. While that happens, the logo is drawn in like the last logo but it is sped up. {{color|Silver}} lines fill up the logo. Clip flies by the logo from right to left leaving "Previews" behind him. The logo fades out. | '''Previews Variant:''' The sequence starts off by fading into a purple gradient background.

* '''Horror''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing a platform with blood stains all over it, the text "keep track of your stuff", and a white doll (resembling Annabelle from ''The Conjuring'' Universe) with red ponytail hair, an orange flower on the heart, red lips, sharp teeth, and glowing cat eyes. The doll cracks its head, then lunges towards the screen, blacking it out. The screen rotates around the text "report suspicious characters" with lights circling around (similar to the deadlights from ''It''), which then fade away. A static TV can be seen on the side as a hand appears and rocks it for a second (a reference to ''Poltergeist''). The logo zooms past the TV to see a door with a white glow behind it, and the text "front, behind, left, right" beside it. The door opens, revealing the floor to be a wooden textured one. There is the text "walk", with lights turning on behind it to reveal "move", "far", and "away". The logo zooms past the text and go up to an egg sitting on a chamber which opens (a reference to ''Alien''), with the text "coming soon" glowing blue for a moment. The logo zooms into the glowing portion of the egg, segueing into the MPAA band screen. | * '''Horror''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing a platform with blood stains all over it, the text "keep track of your stuff", and a white doll (resembling Annabelle from ''The Conjuring'' Universe) with red ponytail hair, an orange flower on the heart, red lips, sharp teeth, and glowing cat eyes.

* '''Comedy''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing the "keep track of your stuff" text hovering over a {{color|green}} floor (presumably a pool/casino game table) with a shot glass (with what appears to be beer) sitting there. Playing cards, from off-screen, are tossed under the table, residing underneath the text, while casino chips shortly fall afterwards onto them. We flip over to where the text is now next to a red-trimmed phone in which the shot glass rolls into (with tiny beer puddles barely seen next to it). The phone buzzes, as text saying "WHERE'S DOUG?!?!" is typed on-screen from a pop-up table. The logo zooms underneath the text and see a darkly-lit room with a checker-boarded floor. The text "report suspicious characters" in a {{color|lime|neon green}} color waves around (similar to a ghost). A knock-off version of the ghost trap from ''Ghostbusters'' (with a blue-{{color|gold|yellow}} palette instead of a {{color|gray}}-{{color|gold|yellow}} one) is tossed in from off-screen, opens up, and sucks the text in, with red and blue streaks also being pulled in the process. But the text is instead stripped from it's {{color|lime|neon green}} color, with it turning into the campaign's signature red. Two buttons on the ghost trap light up. The camera then zooms past it, with the text "right" spinning next to a brown-colored speaker with a plastic cup (and one laying down on the bottom) on a mat sitting on a rugged floor. The camera zooms out, revealing the text "front, behind" and "left," all next to the right and in a stacked alignment, via a blue light switching on. Everything thumps to the beat of the music, with a door sitting on the left. The door opens, revealing a light (ala the [[Virtual Studios]] logo) in which the camera zooms into. Over a {{color|darkred|maroon}}-colored polished plaid floor, the "walk" text is seen, with lights turning on behind it to reveal "move", "far", and "away". We fly by the text to a parallel glowing light, which is the edges of a bowling lane. A {{color|orange|carrot orange}} bowling ball rolls down the lane while the background illuminates to reveal a retro-style space background with {{color|gold|yellow}}, red, blue, orange, and purple abstract stars eventually filling the screen (a reference to ''The Big Lebowski''). The camera zooms up to the text "coming soon", with the two words stacked on top of each other. The words are dislodged from their positions and fly off, while two more large stars flip on-screen (one with {{color|gold|yellow}} edges and a {{color|darkgreen|dark green}} interior, and another with orange edges and a {{color|green}} interior). One of them engulfs the screen, segueing into the MPAA band screen. | * '''Comedy''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing the "keep track of your stuff" text hovering over a {{color|green}} floor (presumably a pool/casino game table) with a shot glass (with what appears to be beer) sitting there.

* '''Superhero''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing a {{color|navy}}-colored backpack sitting against a bedroom window, with a city skyline and police lights flashing outside.

The backpack contains a camera, an AMC logo badge, an spiderweb badge, and a Spider-Man-like suit hanging from it. The screen briefly flashes gold twice (referring to Spider-Man's Spider-Sense), before a web sling attaches to the backpack and pulls it away. All the while the "keep track of your stuff" text hovers beside it. Two ropes reach down, and the camera zooms through the window and pans down the city to reveal the text "report suspicious characters" hovering over a wooden table with "GCPD" (standing for "Gotham City Police Department", a reference to ''Batman'') and "EVIDENCE" inside black and red rectangles on a document folder. A name tag and a fan are seen on both sides of the folder, as it opens to reveal three photos (2 on the left containing a drawing of what appears to be the Joker combined with Harley Quinn, with "HA HA HA HA HA HA" written around it, with the other containing what appears to be a baseball bat with "LIGHT" written vertically on a stone background), with a little post-it note with a picture of the left photo stuck on it. The right photo flaps a little bit before the fan turns and blows away the text. A silver-colored safe emerges from the darkness as two blue lasers reveal the text "front, behind, left, right" (darkened at first, but gaining their signature red a second later). The two lasers move to the right and criss-cross each other, forming an "X" light (a reference to ''X-Men''). The two lasers combine horizontally and two red lasers zap themselves onto the safe, opening it and the screen on the right saying "access granted" in {{color|lime|green}}. The safe emits a light which the screen zooms into, revealing the "walk" text, with lights turning on behind it to reveal "move", "far", and "away". After the camera pans by it, the screen zooms through an open manhole on a brick floor, and the {{color|lime}}-colored ooze from ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'' spilled on the very bottom from two broken parts of the T.C.R.I. (Techno Cosmic Research Institute) canister. A pizza box is seen as well. The "coming soon" text is messily arranged on top of the ooze, which brightens a couple seconds later to segue into the MPAA band screen. | ||
* '''Romance''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing a dimly lit {{color|navy|dark blue}} background with bubbles flying past the screen until the camera gets to a seabed with the text "keep track of your stuff" (which is rather rusty) hovering over it. Then, a locket with a sapphire heart floats down and settles on the bed (similar to the one from ''Titanic''). The camera pans up and we see a masquerade mask with a {{color|darkred|maroon}}, bubbly crown, and red feather pieces (likely a reference to ''Fifty Shades of Grey'') laying on a polished wood floor. The camera turns and reveals the text "report suspicious", followed by "characters" zooming in under it. The mask falls and resides on the text. A spotlight can be seen for a brief moment before the camera swiftly pans to the right to reveal the text "front, left" and "behind, right" wobbling next to a stone doorstep with vines around its holding frame with light beaming above a wooden door. One of the doors opens, with petals being thrown out of it. The camera then zooms into the other half of the door, which also opens. Over a {{color|darkred|maroon}}-colored polished plaid floor, the "walk" text is seen, with lights turning on behind it to reveal "move", "far", and "away". The text "coming soon", over a polished wood floor, is seen over a white rose laid over a green letter with "To My Love" in a red script font. As it zooms closer, the letter has a gold rim with vertical oblongs overlapping each other. The text dissolves and the oblongs move down, segueing into the MPAA band screen. | * '''Romance''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing a dimly lit {{color|navy|dark blue}} background with bubbles flying past the screen until the camera gets to a seabed with the text "keep track of your stuff" (which is rather rusty) hovering over it.

* '''Action''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing a brown steering wheel with a skull at the center and a chain going off-screen on a sandy floor (a reference to ''Mad Max''). The rusty text "keep track of your stuff" hovers over it. A wind briefly shakes the letters, moves the wheel, and launching it into the air, breaking off the text. The screen pans backward to reveal a briefcase full of money, passports and keycards (it looks more like play money). The case also has two pockets containing a passport, a notebook with "project debriefing report" written on the front, and $100 bills with a rubber band stuck to it. There is also a red watch counting down (a reference to the James Bond films) sitting on the front, as the same notebook and a red handbook is tossed in the briefcase. All of this has the text "report suspicious characters" hovering up on the top flap. The watch reaches "00" and starts flickering, as the case closes, locks, and the camera pans over it. The screen pans to a stony Coliseum-like structure (a reference to ''The Maze Runner'') with vines wrapped around the steps and a wooden door, with both halves parting. The camera zooms through it and pans to the right past a wall with arrows scraped on it and the people's names (Thomas, Matt, Rob, etc.) engraved. We briefly pass by leaves and the text "front, behind, left, right" is revealed in front of a mossy stone wall with an arrow pointing left engraved on it. A pitch-black door slides open, with orange-tinted light being emitted from it. The camera moves through the light, revealing the text "walk" is seen, with lights turning on behind it to reveal "move", "far", and "away". The camera zooms past "away", revealing the text "coming soon" hovering over a road. Two cars with their headlights on drift at the camera (a reference to ''Fast and Furious''), and in a slow-motion shot, breaking the text. The other car drifts too far and one of its {{color|lime}}-colored stripes engulf the camera, segueing into the MPAA band screen. | * '''Action''': The AMC logo appears and pans down, revealing a brown steering wheel with a skull at the center and a chain going off-screen on a sandy floor (a reference to ''Mad Max'').
