Default RIALTO Spanish Springs -- a Fire Trap

We went to last nights showing of Blind Side great movie and the 4 as well as 7 pm shows were sold out.

Here is the problem. While waiting for the 7 pm show to start the entire 7pm crowd was in the lobby waiting., I mean it was jammed yet people who wanted to see the other 7 shows were trying to get into their respective movie AND the the crowds from people leaving the earlier shows were also exiting the same enterance. There was no movie staff direction on where to stand...I mean there was no where else to go.......BUt they should have opened up a lane for other movie goers to enter the movie house and moreso should have directed the people commig out of the 4pm showing to exit via other doors rather than through the crowded lobby. This was really an accident waiting to happen.

I also question TVs movie management as to why they scheduled Blind Side for only one screen at the Rialto or why they did not plan on having the movie at the larger LSL movie house.

I certainly hope someone with authority can take a look at these issues.
