As usual for major Paramount releases, the can containing reels 4-7 is locked. The insert in the can says the locks have a bar code which is needed to retrieve the correct combination.

The insert also says there will be random projection booth checks to ensure the film cans remain locked until the appointed hour.

This seems like a new twist on the locks. Apparently they have become paranoid about people figuring out the combination ahead of time and building/running the prints early.
