They set up tables near the theater entrance and "tag and bag" cell phones using metal detectors.

Exactly what we had- def. Outside security and 2 people from the studio there to bag and tag phones and sign in for the movie. They were friendly and all, and it may be extreme but in this day and age its so easy to leak stuff I get it, and really- I got to see a cool flick before it came out so its not any skin off my back that they don't want to spoil it with leaks because after seeing it I think watching it without knowing what happens is the way to go for this movie.
