Although all showtimes have been cancelled at the Century 16 theater in Aurora, Colo. -- the location of the shooting -- the show will go on in other parts of the country.
The two largest theater chains -- Regal Entertainment and AMC Theatres -- will continue to screen films as scheduled.
There may, however, be some caveats. In a statement, AMC Theatres told us, (emphasis ours):
At this time, our show schedules circuit-wide will not change. We will not allow any guests into our theatres in costumes that make other guests feel uncomfortable and we will not permit face-covering masks or fake weapons inside our buildings. If guests wish to exchange or refund any tickets, we will honor our existing policy and do as our guests wish. We are taking necessary precautions to ensure our guests who wish to enjoy a movie this weekend can do so with as much peace of mind as possible in these circumstances.
The theater chain also said that it is "deeply saddened by the Aurora tragedy" and expressed its gratitude to local law enforcement agencies and local security teams.
