AMC Theatres is testing a new dine-in menu that includes lobster tail and filet mignon, but a viral rumor claims this is a desperate ploy to hide the fact that popcorn prices have dropped by 50%.

AMC Theatres is testing a new dine-in menu that includes lobster tail and filet mignon, but a viral rumor claims this is a desperate ploy to hide the fact that popcorn prices have dropped by 50%.

Verdict: Fake. While AMC has expanded premium dining options at select locations, the popcorn price rumor is completely false. AMC has confirmed no such price reduction exists, and the viral story appears to have been fabricated by a satire website.
