2023 Robinhood briefly displayed a false alert that AMC had filed for bankruptcy. Aron exploded, called it irresponsible, and asked his followers if AMC should sue. That was the first public clash.

This week it flared up again. Robinhood created tokenized “AMC stock tokens” through an offshore Jersey company. The tokens track AMC’s price but are not real shares... no voting rights, no ownership, and they can be traded 24/7 and even paired with meme coins. AMC never approved them.On Thursday Aron posted that the whole thing was “contemptible, outrageous, disgusting” and said AMC’s lawyers were looking into it.

Hours later Vlad quoted him and asked, “What’s the concern?”

(coincidentally around the same time the price rose to over $3)

Aron answered with a long post listing the problems: the tokens dodge U.S. securities laws, undermine AMC’s ability to raise real capital, pretend to be stock without giving investors actual rights, and create a fake market that he says damages trust. He told Robinhood to stop trading the AMC tokens or face legal action and an SEC complaint.That’s where it stands: Aron sees unauthorized synthetic AMC tokens as a threat to his company and shareholders. Vlad is treating it as a non-issue.

Things are getting spicy!!!! 🌶️🌶️🌶️🔥🔥🔥

We ride at dawn! Time to take down the $3 wall!!!🚀🌙

Adam Aron's Full Post on X:

Robinhood apparently is behind an effort related to “tokenized real-world assets including Stock Tokens” for AMC Entertainment (and supposedly 190+ other companies). They are not registered under U.S. securities laws !!!!!!

I find this practice to be contemptible, outrageous, disgusting, detestable, inexcusable, vile. How can it possibly be legal? We have no connection to this at all, and do not condone it in any way.

We immediately are going to have our outside securities counsel look into this.

More Details:

Adam Aron, CEO of AMC Theatres, is calling out Robinhood for creating “Stock Tokens” tied to AMC (and 190+ other companies) without AMC’s involvement.These tokens are blockchain versions that track AMC’s stock price so people outside the U.S. can trade exposure 24/7.

They are not actual AMC shares, do not give ownership or voting rights, and are issued by a Robinhood entity in Jersey rather than as registered U.S. securities.Aron says AMC never approved this, finds it unacceptable, and is having lawyers review it. In short: a company is objecting to its stock being tokenized and sold in crypto markets without its consent.

Final thoughts:

Apes... this is yet more fuckery by Wall Street and Robinhood to try and prevent the inevitable. They are doing whatever they can and now might be skirting around securities law. Our plan doesn't change and we keep diamond handing and averaging down (*not financial advice).

Know what you hold and remember SHORTS R FUKT! 🦍💎🤲🏼🚀🚀🚀

Monthly visit estimates (according to AltIndex) went 32.7M in February, 41.1M March, 46.4M April, 64.8M May, 73.4M June, then 90.0M in July.

That is up 175% in five months and up 98% against July last year. Highest month in the data.

Stock is down about 16% over that same twelve months.

Before anyone gets excited, July is peak summer box office and traffic to a theater chain rises when the slate is good regardless of how well the company is run. Some real chunk of that 98% is the release calendar and not AMC.

And the financials have not moved. Last reported quarter was about 1.05 billion in revenue, up 21%, and they still lost 117 million on it. Revenue up 21% while losses stay that size is the entire bear case in one sentence.

What makes it interesting to me is the timing. Back in July the stock jumped 27% the day they reported a record quarter, and the traffic data had already been at a record for over a week before that. It did not predict the stock. It did know about the quarter.

Anyone watching web traffic as an attendance proxy on this, or am I the only one?

AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: AMC), the largest theatrical exhibitor in the United States and in the world, today announced the creation of Leawood Films, a new film distribution company headquartered both in Los Angeles and AMC Theatres home base of Leawood, Kansas. It will focus on bringing additional movies to theatrical audiences in the U.S. and across the globe, leveraging its acclaimed marketing ability and the prominence of its exhibition network, and further expanding the range of content available to moviegoers.

Here is why this is bullish:

1) AMC can fill unused screens without paying to make movies, since Leawood Films only handles already-financed or completed films.

2) Extra bookings can drop high-margin ticket and concession revenue because theater costs are mostly fixed.

3) The label is designed to add small and mid-budget titles, not compete with major studio slates. It's a win-win situation.

4) Filmmaker-friendly terms (they keep most downstream rights and IP) can attract movies that otherwise never reach theaters.

5) AMC can use its marketing, screen commitments, and relationships with other chains, similar to the Taylor Swift and Beyoncé concert-film rollouts.

6) Advisors like Toby Emmerich, Ricky Strauss, and Kyle Davies add industry credibility.

All around AA is expanding AMC's business and this is a strategic low-risk and high reward partnership that will bring in revenue. We are making moves Apes!

Curious to see what happens with AMC tomorrow.

Tokenized AMC on Robinhood had this ridiculous wick while the stock market was closed today after it was used in a new onchain trading pair (memecoin) 😂

Mostly curious whether this kind of 24/7 tokenized stock activity can ever have any effect on the underlying stock when the market opens, or if it just stays isolated onchain.

Apologize to me right now or else!

Saw this at close today and not one mention of AMC. Wonder why 🤔?

I actually like what Adam Aron is doing with the scalpers.

The Dune: Part Three IMAX presale is showing just how much demand there is.

People are buying huge blocks of tickets and then immediately putting them up for resale at ridiculous prices. Some listings have been going for hundreds of dollars.

But there's an important point here: AMC doesn't get that extra money. The scalper does.

If AMC can identify those bulk purchases, cancel the tickets and put them back on sale, the person who actually wants to see the movie can buy directly from AMC.

And that customer isn't just buying a ticket. They're potentially buying an IMAX ticket, food, drinks, popcorn, etc. That's actual revenue going back to AMC instead of someone making hundreds of dollars off a ticket they bought at face value.

Adam Aron has said AMC is monitoring resale sites and taking action against scalpers, including cancelling tickets and potentially closing accounts involved in scalping.

I don't think this is some massive catalyst by itself, but it's another sign that demand for premium cinema experiences is very real right now.

If people are willing to pay $400+ for an IMAX 70mm ticket, I'd rather see AMC capture more of that demand than some guy flipping 80 tickets on eBay.

Let the fans buy the tickets. Let AMC sell the popcorn.

That's how the money should flow.

If the ban stalkers, we'll get a price hike in the stock as people will have more money to buy products inside the cinema.

I swear to god I saw Gary Gensler in Japan the other day. At the peak of Mt. Aburayama in Fukuoka about 2 weeks ago when I was hiking. I said hello and he said hello..(I've seen him before somewhere I thought) but, most likely it was my imagination. His face was so familiar that I thought he was a resident that I'd seen, but not met. (Anyone know if he was here in Japan....I don't have his email)

AMC IS DOING BETTER THAN THE TOP 500 COMPANIES IN THE WORLD

the daily chart really gets me going.. and this volume recently 🙈

Didn’t do any math for inflation but we are just below one billion and it’s only the 20th. The best August ever was 1.019 B. We will be way past that by monday. Doesn’t mean much for the stock but does show people still love going to theaters.

​

Scalpers used to only target concerts because the demand was so high. People would pay more because the experience was worth the additional value of the ticket.

NOW it's happening with movies!

This is just a subtle hint of the times but even more importantly... MOVIES ARE BACK!

When the CEO of the largest theater chain has to personally get involved, you know the demand is real and profitable. The future is looking bright. Know what you hold Apes. 🤲🏼💎
