Whoopee, huzzah. AMC and Odeon theatres attracted more than 5 million guests globally. Biggest domestic weekend of 2026 so far for AMC. The Mandalorian and Grogu was the FIFTH movie to open above $75 million domestically in the last two months. businesswire.com/news/home/2026…

I will be sure to let Netflix know that if Messers Tarantino and Fincher need anyone for reshoots, I am available. If I were them, though, I certainly would stick instead with Oscar winner Brad Pitt. Cliff Booth returns to the big screens of AMC and IMAX at Thanksgiving.

The 5th major recent collaboration of AMC and Netflix. Reprising his Oscar winning role: Brad Pitt returns as Cliff Booth in a new film directed by David Fincher and written by Quentin Tarantino. Coming to AMC’s IMAX theatres November 25 for an exclusive two-week theatrical run. It’s a Hollywood dream team. Pitt. Tarentino. Fincher. At AMC, we are so pleased to once again showcase in our theatres some of the extraordinary content offered by Netflix to its subscribers.

I have enormous confidence in AMC and the 2026/2027 box office. So today, using my own money, I bought 250,000 more AMC shares personally, at market price. I now own outright 2,437,020 AMC shares, raising the total where I have an economic interest to 12,322,429 AMC shares* It actually can be very hard for a CEO of a public company to buy shares. You have to clear having possession of any material non public information, sort out implications of any ongoing debt and equity transactions, and not be in a quiet period before when earnings will be announced. I was finally in a position to buy even more AMC shares today, and I did. As I said, I have great confidence in AMC’s future. So, again today, I put my money where my mouth is. This brings my holdings up to 12.3 million shares* of AMC common stock. My understanding is that I have been, and now even more so I remain, AMC’s biggest individual retail investor. I should probably mention that I have not sold even a single share of AMC stock since January of 2022, more than four years ago. I RIDE WITH YOU !!! —-/////—/////—- (*For precision: this includes AMC shares I already own, and those which previously have been granted to me as part of my annual compensation and which will vest based on length of service and at target levels of performance over the next thirty three months, on a pre-tax basis.)

$AMC 🚨 A MUST READ, WE DIDN'T FORGET, KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, END DARK POOLS,THE SEC NEEDS CHANGE NOW 🚨 🔴 Four Years of Silence: The Forgotten SEC Petition That Exposed Dark Pool Games on GME and AMC. ▶️ On May 11, 2022, Steve Milloy filed Petition 4-785 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Writing on behalf of retail investors who had just lived through the 2021 meme-stock frenzy, Milloy didn’t ask for new regulations or grand investigations. He asked for something elegantly simple and surgically targeted: invoke (or, if necessary, amend) 👇 🔴SEC Rule 304(a)(4) to pull GameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment (AMC) out of every Alternative Trading System (ATS) dark pool in America for at least 14 days. Rule 304(a)(4), part of Regulation ATS, gives the Commission authority to demand operational changes from dark pools when the public interest requires it. Milloy’s petition laid out a straightforward test, if dark pools were not enabling systematic price suppression, then temporarily forcing all trading onto lit exchanges should have zero material effect on price. 👉 If they were the problem, the price would move. Either way, the market and retail investors would finally get clarity. 🔴The evidence he presented was devastating in its specificity. Post-earnings in March and April 2022, when both companies publicly confirmed massive retail ownership (90 % of AMC’s free float; 25 % of GME’s through Computershare alone), 40–60 % of daily volume was still routed through dark pools. On multiple days the buy-to-sell order imbalance was overwhelming sometimes 4-to-1 or higher. 👉 Yet the stocks closed sharply lower. Milloy included exact dates, order-flow data from Fidelity, and volume breakdowns from ChartExchange and MarketChameleon. The pattern was unmistakable: the more retail bought on the lit exchanges, the more volume seemed to vanish into the shadows where it could be netted, internalized, or otherwise kept from moving the price. 👉 The petition landed at a moment when even SEC Chair Gary Gensler was publicly acknowledging that 90–95 % of retail orders were already going off-exchange, and NYSE President Stacey Cunningham had flagged the meme-stock/off-exchange dynamic as a transparency concern. Retail investors noticed. 👉 Within weeks, the SEC’s public comment file for 4-785 filled with passionate, first-hand support from ordinary shareholders, Sarah Smith, Steven Nasir, Michael McCabe, Daniel Sanacore, Jason Fellows, Darlyn Kerner, Felix Dernhagen, Daniel Lim, Vic Vespo, and dozens more each echoing the same plea: enforce the rule that already exists. And then… nothing. ▶️ Nearly four years have passed. As of today, May 2026, Petition 4-785 remains untouched on the SEC’s rulemaking docket. No invocation of Rule 304(a)(4). No proposed amendment. No denial letter. No public statement. No follow-up study. Just the quiet bureaucratic graveyard where inconvenient citizen petitions go to die... 🔴 This is not regulatory caution; it is regulatory absence. While the Commission has spent the intervening years issuing thousands of pages on climate disclosure, SPAC reforms, and crypto enforcement, it has never bothered to address the single most straightforward request ever made by the very retail investors it claims to protect: give us 14 days of sunlight on two stocks whose trading behavior has fueled years of suspicion. 🚨 The silence is louder than any conspiracy theory. It tells every GME and AMC holder and every other retail trader watching the same dark-pool percentages on other names that the SEC’s priority is not price discovery, not fair markets, and not investor confidence. 👉 It is institutional inertia and the comfort of the status quo. Steve Milloy’s petition wasn’t radical. It was reasonable. It was data-driven. It was the kind of precise, testable remedy that regulators should love. Instead, it has become Exhibit A in the case that the SEC’s real rule unwritten but ironclad is “do nothing that might actually change how Wall Street really trades.” 🔴 Four years. Millions of retail investors still holding bags. Dark pools still swallowing 60–80 % of volume on the very stocks that sparked a national conversation about market fairness. And the Commission that is supposed to be the cop on the beat? 😴 👉 Still pretending the petition never existed. If the SEC ever wonders why trust in the markets is eroding, it need only look at the date on Petition 4-785 and the blank space where its response should have been. The rule is still on the books. The problem is still there. The only thing missing is the will to act. $AMC $GME Source: 👇 sec.gov/files/rules/pe…

Today, AMC Entertainment announced our best first quarter results since 2019. In just 3 months, our Adjusted EBITDA was up a breathtaking $96 million year over year. And we reaffirmed how optimistic we are about a growing industry-wide box office for the remainder of 2026.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is the fourth huge hit movie in just the last seven weeks! Some 4.4 million guests saw movies at AMC and Odeon this past weekend, Thursday to Sunday. And so many more blockbusters are in the works for May, June and July. Let the good times roll !!!!!!!

Everything has been breaking my way of late. Four blockbuster hit movies in theatres the past several weeks. Finally studios are giving us a 45 day exclusive theatrical window. Netflix taking Narnia to theatres too. And “my” 76ers, down 3-1, came back to win Game 7 in Boston. Before tonight, Boston won their playoff series 32-0 when up 3-1. Philly 0-18 when down 3-1. Born and raised in Philadelphia, I was CEO of the Sixers 15 years ago and a co-owner of the team for over a decade. The Celtics were a ferocious opponent. It won’t be any easier against the Knicks.

Finally. Today. In AMC’s movie theatres. A long awaited date two decades in the making. The Devil Wears Prada 2

It is a massive development that Netflix has authorized the wide release on February 12, 2027 in movie theatres globally — so very importantly with a traditional 49-day exclusive theatrical window — of acclaimed director Greta Gerwig’s newest film Narnia. Narnia will also receive some prominent advance screenings only in IMAX auditoriums, of which we have some 225. At AMC, our cooperative efforts with Netflix picked up steam in the back half of 2025, and have been immensely successful. Both AMC in the U.S. and Odeon across Europe will throw everything we have into the mix to support Netflix on this effort. We are in their corner fully. We are and will be all in. It should not be lost on anyone the significance of Netflix trying a real global release of a major film title.

BREAKING $PLTR| $230 PT| Outperform Rating 🚀 Wedbush's analyst @DivesTech reiterated Outperform rating and maintains $230 Price Target on @PalantirTech. Palantir is reporting its FY1Q26 results on Monday May 4th after the bell where we expect to see another robust quarter driven by the expanding use-cases for the company’s AIP as demand accelerates across both government and commercial for its offerings with PLTR being at the forefront of the AI Revolution. We continue to believe Palantir has the potential to be a trillion-dollar market cap company in the next few years as the AI Revolution takes hold and the company sees accelerating demand for its AI products and services. We maintain our Outperform rating and $230 price target with the company remaining on the Ives AI 30 list. We believe the Street’s top-line estimate of $1.54 billion as beatable with US commercial revenue expected to accelerate beyond the 139% y/y seen in the last quarter as AIP continues to be at the center of delivering value to customers with the Street still underestimating the company’s commercial efforts. PLTR continues to see unprecedented demand for AIP based on our recent checks in the field across both commercial and government landscapes by taking AI solutions that solve meaningful problems across organizations at enterprise scale driving new customer conversions and existing deal expansions. When speaking more with prospective customers, the majority discussed how they heard about Palantir’s technology and the value these technologies were able to provide through word of mouth after other partners went all in on Palantir, but many were shocked after seeing the use cases through demos giving us more confidence that many still don’t fully understand the full value that Karp & Co. bring to the table. We also note that the company’s bottom-line expectation of $870 million - $874 million for FY1Q26 are hittable despite aggressive investments into product pipeline, elite technical hiring, and AIP with the company accelerating its Rule of 40 profile beyond 127% seen in the prior quarter."

In the FUD Busting Department, I keep reading on my X/Twitter feed many comments that I should buy more AMC shares to show my confidence in the Company. It happens to be against U.S. securities laws for me to do so right now. It is important that you understand these four points. 1. I currently own outright 975,310 AMC shares and at target vesting have an economic interest in 3,640,397 more AMC shares. So, over 4.6 million AMC shares in total. And more than any other individual AMC shareholder on the entire planet of whom I am aware. That already is a lot of confidence. 2. I have not sold even one AMC share in more than three years. I ride with you. 3. I lead AMC fully knowing that more than 2/3 of my total “target” compensation is in AMC stock rather than in cash. I am not “given” these shares. I work hard for these shares. If I did not value AMC stock, I could choose to work elsewhere, with more of my compensation coming in cash rather than in AMC stock. 4. And most importantly, for quite some time now, I personally have been in possession of what is known as MNPI (“material non-public information”). When that is the case, it is patently against U.S. law for a CEO,of a publicly traded company to buy its stock. Illegal. Period. No ifs, ands or buts.

Moonwalking our way to success. With the global debut of MICHAEL, along with strong holdover titles, more than 4.0 million moviegoers attended AMC locations in the U.S., and Odeon Cinemas internationally from Wednesday, April 22, through Sunday, April 26. That’s a thriller!

AMC is mostly owned by retail ,roughly 65%+ in the hands of everyday “APES”Compared to Cinemark (CNK): 100%+ institutional IMAX: 93%+ institutional Most big companies are 70-90% owned by Wall Street.Hedge funds would love to see AMC fail and go bankrupt so they never have to return all those "borrowed shares" and then they can swoop in and scoop up the pieces because they know it’s a great business. So their only play is endless downward pressure and FUD ,that's why they attack us on line and go after OUR company and OUR CEO. The movies are back and they're feeling the pressure.
