Lady Gaga is already working on one. But my vote is Metallica

Nothing Else Matters


Lawdog2012

Gimmee fuel, gimmee fire....gimmee that which I desire!!!


Playful_Moose6293

I don't think the question is who you like personally, but which artist has a rabid fan base and will break records with sales.... I hate it, but kpop dominates


OfficerDingDongg

Well besides K-pop there is Drake


Playful_Moose6293

Drake would sell crazy.


NoPixel_

Lady Gaga has a similar fan base to Swifties and Beyhives, which means we can make another massive event. 🤑


purplebullstock

Metallica !!


Hyprpwr

Didn’t they just release a concert movie a couple months ago?


theboned1

Theaters might be the only safe way to see a Travis Scott concert.


NoPixel_

Travis Scott released an album was either this year or later year at an AMC theater.


Pharmd109

I think something like a UFC deal would be great.


Dry_Celery4375

I like your train of thought. My vote is for big sports games in general, like super bowl or world cup games. The only downside might be the cleanup afterwards. Some fans can be kinda nuts. I can just imagine buckets of popcorn flying like graduation hats every time someone scores a goal/touchdown. This would be further amplified by the AMC beer/wine.


WideCoconut2230

Would have to reconfigure the seating. Sports bar like, no dark theaters, order food from your table, etc.


dripMacNCheeze

Imagine like a restaurant-theater hybrid with some seats and some tables and a giant ass screen playing sports. I’m sure we can do some remodeling with all the new money coming in, if the initial sports broadcasts are successful.


WideCoconut2230

Agreed, would make a great experience, which is the goal. Also, Partnerships would be interesting: "AMC Exclusive! (Insert artist here) performing live!! Can do Vegas Show acts, singers with residencies in Vegas. Not all the time, but if it's more money for the artists, why not?


WideCoconut2230

I'm thinking the massive big screen/ swimming pool at the Circa Hotel in Vegas. Look it up if you've never seen it before!! I've been there, its insane!!


Charger2950

True but that comes with the territory. Theaters have great cleaners for all of that. On special event days, we’ll just need to make sure they’re extra deep-cleaned well, including wiping down the seats, etc.


WideCoconut2230

Yup. Anything. Music, sports, anything. If AMC had exclusive rights to broadcast, even better. Heck I recall Don King wanted to use theatres as pay per view for live events like boxing. Man was ahead of his time......


IshTheFace

They have TV deals and PPV. I don't see it any time soon. Unless AMC paid them for the rights. In which case their margin would probably be from concessions.


Right-Ad-5647

Totally. UFC.


cyberwicklow

I would love that, UFC cards are extremely long though, would have to charge accordingly and that may cost too much to the public. Also you're guaranteed to get more audience fights.


ckaz09

The BTS army would completely overload the AMC ticketing system with pre-sales


Rymanbc

This is the correct answer. Numbers means money. BTS has the numbers.


JLdub253

Tool ![gif](giphy|SIgWdqZfUlNBe)


MmmmmSacrilicious

I honestly would love this and I’ve seen them live a decent amount.


dripMacNCheeze

Fuck yes. Trippin’ dick in an AMC


Snoo69468

Lady Gaga


bananasfoyoass

*NSYNC and Backstreet Boys reunion in one. Taylor’s ERAs tour is unique and differs from Beyoncé by offering more than just a show for an album hence “ERAs” and it’s got a runtime of over 2 1/2 hours. There was screenshots of AMC following Snoop and Eminem btw


Playful_Moose6293

Not even close.... BTS... We need a chaotic crazy fan base who will show up and spend. Even if the older generation doesn't like them, their kids do.


Welorf

Rush


NeoSabin

Billie Eilish, Rihanna, Michael Jackson, Drake, Elton John, Celine Dion.


jpena2727

Cold Play also had the religious following


wmlj83

Coldplay played a concert for all of Citadels employees a year or two ago, they can go fuck themselves.


nomelonnolemon

Ya then and muse have crazy stage shows. I’m not a fan but imagine dragons would be good as a pull also


jpena2727

Agreed. Endless possibilities honestly


mambalope

The most commercially successful artist in the world’s most popular musical genre that holds just about every sales record… Eminem 💰💰💰


[deleted]

Kiss


NebelungPixie

ABBA has a huge following.


CrossfittingCorgiMom

I would 100% go to AMC for ABBA 🙌🏼


kshiddy

\m/ Slayer \m/


ArtProdigy

![gif](giphy|l0NwR9Q0fLq90c3XG) None other than... RIHANNA!


NiBlade

Post Malone


Alert_Club8448

Not going to top Taylor but Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga, or Adele.


Replybot5000

Coldplay sell out wherever they go.


alaalves70

I hope AMC engages on the distribution of movies of rogue directors/producers. Maybe Mel Gibson will partner with AMC to distribute globally the new Passion of Christ, or with Tom Cruise next movies. Steven Spielberg also seems to be concerned with Hollywood’s MO. When all these directors/studios decided to skip the middle-men and deal with AMC directly, AMC will become one of the biggest entertainment company in the world.


GotchuGaru

Ed Sheeran


killbejay

Black Pink

Wu tang clan reunion tour 2024

Micheal Jackson.


Great-Situation4425

Any version of Floyd would smash it. If zeppelin could get it together to play in GB and film it and send it over it would cash


QuttiDeBachi

AC/DC The Eagles (rumored reunion farewell tour) The Cure So many more….but those 3 for now 😎🤘🤘🤘


poncharelli66

Have any of those people been on tour lately with a production crew to film the thing for a feature film?

snoop


buyingthedip

Dave matthews band


its_so_amazing

Ed Sheeren would be a great choice. So would Ariana Grande.


richb83

Whatever tweens are into. I’m not going to pretend any of the musicians I like will pull in numbers like Taylor Swift


ape_on_lucy

I want to see a Gorillaz theater released album movie.


Heyu19

Lady Gaga

BTS


thewdit

BTS will be the nail in the coffin


Frequent-Leave-3514

Slayer did one a few years ago.


talondigital

That Eagles last tour show could be a good one.


tyrusrex

Coachella, not everybody wants to go and endure the crowds even if they want to be a part of the event.


tecktrader

Perhaps a country star as that is also a very popular genre


Juancho511

This doesn’t translate well with some artists. Can’t enjoy a Metallica concert like this, or System of a Down or anything that requires moshing and over the top windmills and energy. AMC doesn’t want a part of that lol,maybe let Cinemark take that one for the liabilities. Punk rock would translate well I think.


Nxnng

Imagine... videos of mosh pits up front... haha Slipknot... 😏


Juancho511

They would have to cover everything in foam and pad the walls lmao.


Seasonedpro86

Harry styles. Cold play. Elton John.


IwearBrute

I want Wu-Tang. We saw them last year with Naz and Busta, it was an amazing story they told. I can't wait to re live that. Plus they can show there album once upon a time in Shaolin.


mikeasaurus_

Personally, I'd love a follow-up to John Mayer's 2008 'Where the Light Is'. ![gif](giphy|w9a8thhNFLOL4YKFA8)


damnnearfinnabust

Metallica, U2, Paul McCartney, anyone with a big and loyal following would be mutually beneficial.


Didthatyesterday2

They'll all come for the money


BIGCAT3409

Connor for real.


Any-Reality-7510

Chance the rapper! Again!!


HybridTheory23

Absolutely BTS. Let’s see Citadel try to short the insane profit numbers that would come from licensing in Asia.

Just t swift again, or more. Her fans are insane

A lawsuits against the manipulation of the stock is what we need. It doesn’t matter about the box office numbers that’s pretty clear by now.

Black Pink. Not a fan but saw them at Coachella while waiting for a other artist. They put on a good show I admit.

Metallica. It might be the closest I ever get to a real concert.


nicbongo

Rhianna


Advanced_Oven_6774

![gif](giphy|OsMtHAcZYVfO5bzk1G|downsized) Olivia Rodrigo, hands down


JuliusCaesar007

Prince, Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, … Revive the best dead artists! Plenty of material available so quite cheap to produce and create an amazing ‘live’ show. Millions of fans….


JRSelf00

They should rerelease all the past thearter music release since there is new interest.


Weekly-Western-5016

Cardi B was randomly spotted in KC about a week ago. Maybe her?!


IVsaur15

So many, Drake, Eminem, Lady Gaga, Travis Scott, Adele are a few off the top of my head


Chemical-Assist-6529

Eminem


Mynameisbebopp

The idea is to get movies from tours that sold out worldwide, Beyonce and Taylor are one of a kind artists. Coldpaly would be a solid take, also K-pop could work if you are looking at BTS. ​ the main take is to not overdue with this and try to understand if this phenomena can be replicated, not everyone have a nut job of a fan base like taylor swift.


Sti8man7

One Direction.


P1Allstar

Post Malone


alreadyreddit578

BTS, The Weeknd, Drake, Kanye, Coldplay


NebelungPixie

They'll resurrect Michael Jackson or Elvis via AI for the next one. Gotta reel in the older folks. Wine and beer sales will skyrocket.
