When I was 6 going to see Spider-Man 3 at amc, I still remember this intro while sitting in the Theaters, smelling the popcorn scent, and literally excited to see what I was about to see.
YESSS!!!!! I’m sorry, however, but more on the Regal side I grew up closely way more than AMC coz my local AMC isn’t really close to home, and Regal is more of my childhood. The year would be the years before the Noovie-era (The 2wenty and FirstLook), meaning 2003 was the year NCM introduced digital content rather than the traditional ad slides in silence before previews. Can’t really remember what The 2wenty music sounded like since we won’t find a video of it on YT at all, but I really do miss the previous and older FirstLook music (post-2wenty until late-September 2017) very much it reminds me of my childhood at the movies. If I was born in 1987 and have my own car or take the T, I’d be able to go to the movies as often not only for the movie itself but for these preshowings... until Noovie was introduced (meaning I wouldn’t be able to arrive as early as much), when in real life I was just a little one being accompanied with a parent. Oddly enough, I’m getting used to this current pros-and-cons cinema advertising, but thankfully, I will always think about my childhood past of seeing FirstLook during the Noovie-era. But yeah, despite the discomfort of the seats and the fact there were no recliners at the time, I would definitely go back to 2003 until the Noovie-era just for NCM’s older preshowings I’ll never forget, and just record them with my iPhone when no one in the audience can’t see me 😂 Update: I know, sorry for long paragraph. Going to the movies are my life
I miss those days. However, I am glad that it's been uploaded on this semi-time machine called RUclips. I can listen to it in full as well. I never heard it in full in theaters.
So much nostalgia. I remember watching this as a kid, but I would get bored after a while. They'd play it for almost 5 minutes or 10 minutes. Like come on and get on with the movie already.
I finally found it!!! And uploaded by the animator, no less. What is the name of the song? I could have sworn it was "Chariot" or something, and was included in the iMovie song library, but I think my recollection may be totally unfounded. In any case thank you!
And now the not-so-good Noovie at all AMC, Regal, and Cinemark theaters. But FirstLook and Noovie are all the same, so it’s just cinema advertising. I like them both (and both their music) tbh. In fact, I have never ever seen the MovieWatcher Network due to our local AMC (formerly a General Cinema) that’s 14 miles from home (we now go there only on occasion since the recliners-era). I might’ve seen the pre-showing of it before “Kangaroo Jack” or that I might’ve been late, but I feel like I have missed out completely on that old pre-showing.
The Program now is actually called AMCstubs. First Look is just a pre-show kind of thing with behind-the-scenes looks for an upcoming movie and some other stuff.
Interesting part of the old AMC presentation. Do you have the old AMC Theaters Emergency Exit policy that they used to show before movies in the 2000s? I haven't been able to find it anywhere.
Sonic The Hedgehog I was creative director for AMC’s on screen advertising at the time. It was used when all of the preshow entertainment and advertising was over in case the movie didn’t start on time.
When I was 6 going to see Spider-Man 3 at amc, I still remember this intro while sitting in the Theaters, smelling the popcorn scent, and literally excited to see what I was about to see.
First time I saw this, was when I saw Spider-Man 2 in theaters back in 2004
Oh I remember this on a Saturday afternoon in the mid 2000s! Nostalgia & a more relaxed way of life than today!
You can practically smell the theater popcorn...
I was eating popcorn while watching this yesterday
Agreed! And taste the candy.
Holy shit I can!
I smell it. All the time. I work at an AMC
Literally tho
I worked at an AMC from 2003 - 2009 so I saw this PLENTY of times, big thanks for uploading this!!!!! Awesome!
My local AMC closed in 2006. When did this play in the theater?
Finally I found this after years of finding this! But I remember this as a kid in the 2000s.
Me too
It also ran in the early 2010’s in some theaters as a “warm up”, so it had quite a long existence.
I remember this as well!
so many memories of this
yeah the Good Ol times did you see Batman vs. Superman dawn of Justice I saw it it was crazy
THIS IS THE ONE! I’ve been trying to remember this for years and I finally found it.
Does anyone else ever wish they had a time machine to the past just so they could hear and see this playing in an AMC theater again?
YESSS!!!!! I’m sorry, however, but more on the Regal side I grew up closely way more than AMC coz my local AMC isn’t really close to home, and Regal is more of my childhood.

@@kascnef What about A-List? i hear with that, you can see up to 3 movies a week at AMC.
So much nostalgia. I remember watching this as a kid, but I would get bored after a while. They'd play it for almost 5 minutes or 10 minutes. Like come on and get on with the movie already.

Actually You people will know what it's like to watch AMC Theaters commercial pre show loop in 3-D

This Bumper Is Taken From 2002 Until 2011 When They Changed From AMC MovieWatcher Network To AMC FirstLook
And now the not-so-good Noovie at all AMC, Regal, and Cinemark theaters. But FirstLook and Noovie are all the same, so it’s just cinema advertising. I like them both (and both their music) tbh.

Yeah. It used to be AMC MovieWatcher Network from 2002 until 2011, it became AMC FirstLook. But now since 2017, it became the current name, Noovie.
First saw it at AMC Highlands Ranch 24 in Highlands Ranch, Colorado.
I remember this as the kid
so many memories of this is have
I remmeber hearing this when I go to Deerbrook's AMC 24.
Been a long time since I saw this. West Oaks 14 back in 2007-2009
When I was 16 seeing Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
thank you so for this
This one is from 2002-2009
i love this so
I'm crying I'm such a pussy ): cuz it's giving me so many flash backs with my mom
Loved this music…why did they have to change all of this?
Interesting part of the old AMC presentation. Do you have the old AMC Theaters Emergency Exit policy that they used to show before movies in the 2000s? I haven't been able to find it anywhere.
1991-2009
Nostalgia
Do you know the music for this?
i like this
In 2002
Good movie
*I feel like I’ve been here before*
*2009-2011*
Was this your doing?
Yes. I animated it in 2003.
@@tomstack2971no way that’s actually cool man, respect to you on the pre show loop. thanks for the memories your work gave me. 🫡
Hey Tom, where did you get this?
I animated it when I worked for AMC. I was the creative director for their advertising company National Cinemedia.
+Tom Stack This music looks catchy!
What year is that in
I animated it in 2003.
@Tom Stack Then tell me why did you made a animation in 2003
Sonic The Hedgehog I was creative director for AMC’s on screen advertising at the time. It was used when all of the preshow entertainment and advertising was over in case the movie didn’t start on time.
@Tom Stack What 2003 movie is been animation by
Sonic The Hedgehog This was not for a particular movie. It was part of AMC’s preshow advertising. It played before any movie that was late starting.
i hate amc dont do this any moore
The Music Is So Magical!! Almost As If You’re Actually In The Theater Waiting For Commercials Before The Previews!!🍿🥤🎟️🎬
