I've always appreciated your no talking/texting rule! Unfortunately, when some friends and I went to go see Magic Mike, it turned out to be the worst Alamo experience ever (yet still better than a regular theater on a good day, hardy har.) The theater was full of rowdy women who talked throughout the entire movie (even through the serious scenes), threw popcorn at the screen and wouldn't stop screaming. It was about 70% of the theater behaving this way, but management couldn't seem to do anything, and no one was escorted out. I talked to the manager after the movie and she said that almost every screening of Magic Mike was like that! I totally understand that this may have been unexpected and overwhelming for the staff, but I was wondering if the Alamo learned anything from this experience and if y'all had come up with some kind of protocol if something that crazy ever happens again?

There will be a Magic Mike 2, after all.

And this is why you guys are so awesome. You actually give a shit, and take things seriously while others would just scoff and say, "Well you should have EXPECTED that..." Mucho love, thanks.

I did expect screaming and whooping during the stripping/dancing scenes - no biggie. I did not expect it when Channing Tatum was in the bank applying for a small business loan.

I've noticed that there are not longer warnings about being turned away from the theater if you show up late to a showing (before the previews... or I'm just blind.) Is that still a rule or has it been abandoned? I imagine it's difficult to enforce.

BTW, thank you guys for everything that you do, love love it.
