#Wicked

o   If you're a huge "Wicked" fan and can’t wait for the movie, you may not like this news:  AMC Theaters are not going to let you sing along.

o   They're running a 30-second warning set to clips from the movie that says, quote, "No talking.  No texting.  No singing.  No wailing.  No flirting.  And absolutely no name-calling.  Enjoy the magic of movies."

o   An AMC spokesperson says the chain has, quote, "a long-standing policy that prohibits disruptive behavior."

o   No doubt other theaters will enforce a similar policy.

o   But, just like with the Taylor Swift "Eras Tour" movie, it's probably going to be hard to keep fans quiet.

o   Theaters around the country WILL hold special screenings where audience participation is encouraged but they don't start until Christmas Day.
