Movie Theater Trip

So, at the risk of sounding 100% dramatic, I have a legitimate gripe. After the events of 7-20-12, I am a little uneasy in the movie theater. Of course, my initial question when picking the seats for my family and I was, "Do you have exits at the TOP of the theater." The answer I heard was, "Yes sir". In reality the true answer was, "Our theaters have two exits" but that didn't mean at the top, where I safely placed my family JUST in case a hasty, efficient escape is needed.

At the risk of sounding paranoid and silly, I am uneasy now due to the fact that I have inadvertently placed my parents, my kids, my wife and myself in the furthest seats from any exit in this theater. Some people will certainly mock me for this feeling of insecurity but am I really being that overly cautious?

During the film, a gentleman went out of the exit door that exist out in the opposite direction of the lobby and restrooms. I am sure no one else batted an eye but I watched that door like it was the main attraction for the rest of the time.

Now I'm typing this, so obviously, we had an excellent movie going experience except for the fact that the new Spiderman movie sucked. Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone) was excellent but the rest of it was just...blah for me.

The main thing that bothers me is that all I needed was a ticket to get into this movie. No one asked me if I had any weapons or informed me of any new precautions that have been instituted since 7-20-12. Something needs to be initiated, just for the sake of peoples' comfort. Anything will do, even if it is just a mind fuck to get me to feel comfortable.

All is well and all will be fine. I'm sure.
