Ugh, why? There are so many more pressing matters.

Yeah that will be kinda weird to keep having a movie playing for months and delaying home release for nearly a year. Yes I heard movies have played for months instead of weeks.

This should spark another "Disney is gonna own the world!!!" outrage debate

I highly doubt AMC's majority owners, Wanda Group - the Chinese conglomerate who also own Legendary Pictures, would be interested in selling. In 2016 Wanda Group owned more movie screens in U.S. then they did in China (about 13% in U.S. vs about 6% in China).

Cause independent circuit theaters don't have enough problems already...

Even moviepass in its prime didn't help this movie.
