You can do that if you want, "fire in a movie theater" was an argument in an overturned Supreme Court ruling.

You can do that, but if you feel entitled to the theater's help in doing it then I don't know what to tell you.

And if you expect the theater to let you in when you come back to watch a movie the next day, you're going to be disappointed.

It's also worth reminding that it was a ruling which put a prominent politician in prison for campaigning against WW1 and encouraging people to resist the draft.

Which is to say, it came preassembled with a slippery slope.
