I haven't seen signs about no weapons allowed on premises at any of the movies I've attended. A shooter wouldn't adhere to that anyway. Many have a legal concealed carry permit. How would that be handled? Heck, if someone carried, I'd like them sitting next to me!
I don't think I'd go to that movie theater if they snooped through my stuff.
