AMC Slams MoviePass and Threatening Legal Action

Subscribers can watch a daily movie and pay only $ 9.95 for a month. Perhaps this is an interesting news, but it leads to strong legal disputes between the parties involved.

MoviePass is using a plan to raise funds from sales to cover its pricing model. It will allow customers to watch a movie every day in the theater for $ 9.95 a month.

AMC Theatres has threatened MoviePass with a lawsuit.Why ?

the largest theater chain in the US " AMC" was strongly suggested that the MoviePass model was unsustainable.

It is clear from this point of view that this is quite a sensitive issue that affects the revenue of the movie theater and the factors involved in investing in new films.

AMC's stock has been hit hard in recent weeks after it announced disappointing quarterly earnings. So lowering the plan for 2017 is almost a compulsory measure.
