The new AMC Randhurst 12 will be Chicago's first LEED-certified theatre, incorporating various aspects of environmentally sustainable design. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is globally recognized green-building certification system, providing a concise framework for implementing practical and measurable green building design, construction, operations and maintenance.
In addition to its environmental attributes, guests at AMC Randhurst 12 will enjoy unique seating options that include first-come, first-serve box seats along the sides of the auditoriums, seats with extra leg room in the back row and front-row recliners.
Guests who visit the theatre will also be the first to experience the only all-digital theatre in the area, equipped with Sony 4K digital cinema projections systems that offer the highest picture resolution of all available projection technologies and more than four times greater than high-definition.
Before or after the show, guests at AMC Randhurst 12 will be able to enjoy an alcoholic beverage at MacGuffins®, a full-service bar and lounge area inside the theatre. Named after a term coined by famed filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock, MacGuffins features a variety of beer, wine and cocktails. MacGuffins operates from 4-11 p.m. daily and guests must be at least 21 years old.
If guests are looking for a non-alcoholic beverage, they will be in luck because AMC Randhurst 12 will offer Coca-Cola Freestyle®, which will allow guests to use cutting-edge technology to create their own personal drink mix from more than 100 choices.
The ETX auditorium at AMC Randhurst 12 will include a 20-percent larger screen, 3D technology, digital projection and an upgraded sound system.
Specifically, the digital projection system produces images at a superior resolution with nearly twice as many audio channels compared to typical auditoriums. As a result of this improved experience, guests will not simply watch a movie. They will live it in ETX.
