home theatre seating usa image
Mandy H
Ok, I know this is a random question but does anyone know how big the seats are in a normal AMC theater? Like, how much can they hold? My stepdad and I are going to the movies and hes a pretty big guy. He hasn't been to the movies in ages and I want it to be fun for him.
Answer
Today's modern movie theater seats are on average 22-inches wide, measured from the center of one of the chairs' armrest over to the center of it's other armrest. Back in the 1990's AMC used 20 inch wide chairs throughout the USA, but in the last 10 years they have converted their theaters to the wider 22 inch because, quite frankly, American have gotten wider. Muvico also uses the 22 inch as its standard width. Now that is not to say that there are some exceptions. VIP seating areas in theaters, especially theaters offering stadium-style seating, is become more and more popular. (They usually cost you a couple of bucks more when you buy your ticket too.) These chairs are usually 24 or more inches wide. Check out the dimensions of typical theater seats at http://www.celebrityseating.com/product.php?page_id=Cinema-Star-Rocker-Theater-Seating where you can see a 22, 23, and 24 inch wide theater seat.I think your step-dad will do fine in the 22 inch wide chairs. Most home theater owners who put real movie theater seats in their homes choose the 22 inch model. Plus theater seats are rated to hold up to 450 pounds.
Multi-plex movie theaters have auditoriums ranging from 85 theater seats to 300+ theater seats. New movie releases are first shown in the larger auditoriums and then after a couple of weeks are moved in to and shown in the smaller auditoriums, thus making room for the next 'new releases'. Unless it's a movie like Avatar, which stayed in the large auditoriums for 2 months!
Hope that help answer your question.

Looking for customer reviews for Samsung LN46B550 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV?

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank You Samsung, March 17, 2009
By Peter (Los Angeles)
Just received the unit a few hours ago. It is a work of art. The photos do not reflect quality of materials and construction. Picture blows away 1080p DLP. Wish it was 120hz, but for 60hz the 5ms response rate makes up for it. After several attempts to fix my HLT5087SAX DLP purchased from Amazon, Samsung replaced it with the LN46B550K1FXZA. I am a Samsung customer for life!
5.0 out of 5 stars Alot of set for the price!, April 14, 2009
By Barbara A. (Lisle, Illinois USA)
We received our set over two weeks ago, and remain as excited as if it just arrived. What great color and what a sharp picture. We have a 37" Sony HDTV in our smaller living room, and this picture is even better; and we like our Sony a lot. It was an easy set to self install, and is an easy set to operate. Yet, it has the features and options to expand into a home theater with all the bells and whistles. The included swivel stand comes in handy, since the seating in our family room isn't isolated in one primary location. It certainly is a high value set at today's prices, and one you won't regret owning. Go for it!

Purchased the Samsung LN46B550 from Amazon after having considered the LN46A550 for quite a while. The B550 is the newer model of the same tv with a better design, better speakers, and more hdmi inputs. Received the product on March 27, 2009.
Easy to setup, the picture is outstanding, and contrary to some reports there is no problem with the sound. Completely satisfied with the purchase and would recommend to anyone. The pricing at $1,300 is a steal.
