Beginning sometime in 2023, AMC Theaters and Zoom are coming together to allow audience members to video chat from the comfort of their local movie theater. The two companies announced the collaboration in a small press release that gave faint details, but Variety is reporting at least 17 AMC locations across the United States will work together with Zoom to facilitate conference calls between "small, medium and large-sized groups" in different venues.

Additional services like food and beverage selections, possible movie viewings, and other meeting needs will also be available at an additional cost, the release also said.

It's hard to imagine that dazzling images on a huge silver screen just means choppy video of your friends or even your bosses if for some reason they decide to host a post-Wakanda Forever conference call. The hope for the collaboration is to enable companies with decentralized workforces and customer bases to meet for "cohesive virtual and in-person events and meeting experiences".
