BoingBoing reader Steve Portigal says, "I received a free pass for a preview screening of the new film In Good Company and thought the warning info at the bottom might be of interest. Sure, we've heard of this happening, but I don't know if anyone has offered the actual text of the "agreement":

Please arrive early! Seats are not guaranteed, are limited to theatre capacity and are first-come, first-served. EXCEPT FOR MEMBERS OF THE REVIEWING PRESS. CHILDREN ARE STRONGLY DISCOURAGED.
