To do this evening/ was completed: Desmond will have quite a few techs to go through tomorrow, which he's emailed us about, but just wanted to pop a friendly reminder in here to say that Will made a tech playlist for Mulholland drive, so that's all set.  House checks set.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Took a look at Jimmy's Demons to make sure the DCP is alright.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Double checked the playlist for The Big Lebowski as the keys finally opened.

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Sometime during reel 4 (of 5) of Assassin's Revenge  the fire alarms throughout the building went off. The staff very quickly deduced it was a false alarm and guests were asked to remain in their seats/auditoriums after some confusion about the need for evacuation. FDNY arrived and triggered the alarm twice more, so I waited on word from MOD before resetting each auditorium. Ultimately the shows were delayed roughly 20 minutes so time in subsequent rounds was accounted and adjusted for. I was in contact with Cristina during this and got Sundays on Fire up and running again with about 1/4 of reel 4 to go. Fortunately reel 5 was very short and the guests exited quickly to allow for a fast theater flip.  Preshow Clips/Playlist: Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: The Secret Life of Pets  brunch show and the private screening of Zootopia this morning went smoothly Sundays on Fire was going well up until the afore...

The groom approached me as I was removing the last line of text and asked...
