It was actually Moviepass who removed those theaters. The reason for it wasn't released but it is guessed that it was because theaters in major Metros are more expensive. Its also rumored they did it to show AMC that Moviepass is getting big enough to have influence on which theaters get business based off of who they let their subscribers go to.

I read that in addition to selling data they are also wanting theaters to give them a piece of the concession money. Their argument is that their subscribers spend more on concessions because they don't pay for tickets. Amc has been their most vocal opponent.
