Thanks.
I have been to the SMG in City Center many times. Have never seen a sign.
10-4. Took a chance. It has the Unlicensed weapon warning signs but no 30.06 or 30.07. Good news, although I rarely go to the movies anyway. Had to take grandchildren and their friends.
I open carried in the Lewisville location. Got a quick glance from the ticket taker and a couple teens. That was the extent of it, no bad reaction. As always, YMMV

Another bad thing about going to the movies...before you even sit down your out 40 bucks or more for two people for tickets and snacks. We usually eat at another location before going to the theater but still get snacks.

We go to the cinamark in Teaxas City. I can't resist the movie theater popcorn and we bring in a bottled water apiece. 15 Bucks for the two of us tops.

I consider it irresponsible to go to a movie theater (or mall) unarmed.
We re-confirmed the Santikos Palladium in Katy last night with a showing of Star Trek. Nothing but 30.07 signs there.
Your best option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
When those fail, aim for center mass.

They have had two gift card deals in the last 7 months where I bought a $25 gift card and got a $25 bonus gift card free. Then I use promo pricing and only pay $11 for two tickets.

If you live in Fort Worth or Lewisville area Coyote Drive In is great place to watch movies. All from the comfort of you cAR.

Depending on the time of year we either watch from inside the truck or throw a couple of chairs in the back.

Not posted and presumably it wouldn't apply since a drive in is in and off itself a giant parking lot.

Wow! That's just down the street from Joe T's, our absolute favorite restaurant. Eat dinner there, & go a few blocks to go to a drive inn! Thanks for the tip & link! (And the prices can't be beat!) :hurry: :tiphat:

AMC Starplex in Lake Worth is (or was as of 2013) a nice theater with no signs to my knowledge (Texas3006 would seem to confirm). Best part is they have matinee pricing before 2 I believe, including weekends. $5 tickets and I can still afford popcorn.

Almost every theatre in NC didn't have a gun sign. I think this whole 06/07 has really bitten us in the butt in some cases.

I would be surprised if they are not posted given that it is strict corporate policy to prohibit weapons at any AMC theater, anywhere. Seems much more likely that some choose to "not see" the 30.06 and 30.07 signage as I stare at it at the ticket window every time I go and it is impossible to miss.
