AMC Theatres Faces Booking Delays Amid High Demand for 'The Odyssey' Screenings
AMC Theatres experienced technical issues on Thursday as audiences rushed to book tickets for Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' during its second weekend. The US's largest multiplex chain faced website and app crashes, causing long wait times and error messages for users. The demand is especially high for the limited 70mm IMAX screenings, such as at AMC Lincoln Square in New York City, where large crowds and long queues were reported. The surge reflects the film's strong opening and ongoing popularity.
