ORDER
R. BROOKE JACKSON, District Judge.These cases are before the Court on motions to dismiss filed by defendant Cinemark. On November 27, 2012 the Court referred the seven cases then pending to United States Magistrate Judge Michael E. Hegarty for various purposes including the preparation of a recommendation on the motions to dismiss. On January 24, 2013 the magistrate judge issued his recommendation that the motions be granted in part and denied in part. Cinemark filed a timely objection to the recommendation. Certain plaintiffs have objected to the magistrate judge’s recommendation to dismiss their wrongful death claims.
Meanwhile, three additional cases have been filed. Cinemark filed similar motions to dismiss those cases, and the motions have now been fully briefed. There is no reason to refer the additional cases to the magistrate judge at this time, because the motions and issues are essentially the same as those on which he has issued his recommendation. For the reasons set forth herein, the Court dismisses the negligence claims but denies the motions to dismiss the statutory claims.
I. FACTS.
These cases arise from the tragic shootings that occurred at the Century Aurora 16 theater complex in Aurora, Colorado on July 20, 2012. For purposes of a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim upon which relief could be granted under Fed. R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) the Court must assume the truth of all well-pleaded allegations of fact and draw all rational inferences from those assumed facts in favor of the plaintiffs. Therefore, solely for purposes of resolving the pending motions, the Court assumes the truth of the following facts.
Before July 20, 2012 Cinemark knew that previous disturbances, incidents, disruptions and other criminal activities had occurred at or near the property of the theater. These incidents typically occurred during the evening hours and included assaults, robberies and at least one shooting near the theater involving gang members. Based on that knowledge Cine-mark hired security personnel including off-duty law enforcement officers from the Aurora Police Department to be present on Friday and Saturday evenings.
July 19, 2012 was a Thursday. The movie, “The Dark Knight Rises,” was scheduled to premiere that night at midnight. Cinemark advertised and sold tickets and, anticipating . large crowds, scheduled showings in more than one auditorium. However, although security personnel were present earlier in the day when box office cash was being transferred, no security personnel were hired or were present when the movie was to be shown. The exterior doors to the theaters did not have an alarm system, an interlocking security system, or any other security or alarm features that would put Cinemark’s employees or security personnel on notice if someone exited the theater through the exterior door, or left the door in an open position, or re-entered through the door. Cinemark did not have in place any security practices or procedures, nor did it employ or adequately train any employee or security personnel to prevent or deter someone from surreptitiously and unlawfully re-entering the theater through an unlocked and unalarmed door.
The theater complex had public parking available on all sides including behind Auditorium 9. However, there was no system *1342or procedure for theater personnel to survey or monitor the parking areas behind or to the sides of the theaters. The failure to monitor the parking areas near the theater and the external doors made it possible for a person to re-enter the theater without fear of interference, interruption or chance at being discovered and to leave the door open for a period of time.
An individual present for the midnight showing, referred to as “the gunman,” purchased a ticket and entered Auditorium 9 through the normal patron entrance. After the theater was darkened and the screen projection began the gunman left his seat and exited the theater to the outside parking area through a door located at the right, front side of the movie screen, leaving the door ajar so that it would remain open. He went to his car, which was parked near the same exterior door to Auditorium 9, and withdrew one or more fully loaded shotguns; an AR-15 assault rifle, with a fully loaded “banana clip;” one or more fully loaded automatic Glock handguns; additional ammunition; and several tear gas canisters. He also put on body armor and a gas mask. The gunman made one or more trips from his car through the open exterior door to Auditorium 9, with his firearms, ammunition and tear gas. This took an extended period of time, but he was not monitored, deterred or contacted by theater personnel.
After throwing tear gas canisters into the auditorium, the gunman opened fire with his various firearms, continuing over the course of several minutes until his weapon jammed. He killed 12 theater patrons and injured many others. The plaintiffs in these cases are persons who were injured, physically and emotionally, and family members of persons who were killed or injured. After his weapon jammed, the gunman walked out the same door and sat in his car until he was arrested by police. Theater personnel did not intervene during the course of the shooting. For several minutes after the shooting had stopped theater personnel still took no action to assist or to evacuate the injured who were still present in Auditorium 9.
Based on these events plaintiffs have filed claims of premises liability under the Colorado Premises Liability Act, C.R.S. § 13-21-115; common law negligence; and as to some plaintiffs who are parents of deceased victims, a statutory wrongful death claim. Magistrate Judge Hegarty recommended that the motions be granted with respect to the negligence and wrongful death claims but denied with respect to claims under the Premises Liability Act. Cinemark objected to the magistrate judge’s recommendation concerning the Premises Liability Act claims. The plaintiffs who have asserted statutory wrongful death claims have objected to the recommendation that those claims be dismissed.
II. STANDARD OF REVIEW.
This Court reviews de novo any part of a magistrate judge’s recommendation on a disposition motion to which a timely objection has been made. Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b)(3).
III. CONCLUSIONS.
A. Premises Liability Act
I suspect that many people, despite overwhelming sympathy and grief for the victims of the Aurora theater shootings, might upon hearing about these lawsuits have had reactions like, “how could a theater be expected to prevent something like this?” I confess that I am one of those people.
Initial reactions aside, however, the pending motions present difficult questions of interpretation and application of law. I *1343start with a bit of history. Before 1986 the recourse of an individual who was injured on another’s land was generally determined by common law negligence. He must show (1) that the landowner owed him a legal duty to act to avoid injury; (2) which the landowner breached, (3) thereby causing the injury. The court determined the existence and scope of the duty as a matter of law, considering such factors as the risk involved, the foreseeability and likelihood of the injury, the social utility of the landowner’s conduct, and the magnitude of the burden that would be placed on the landowner of guarding against the injury. See, e.g., Taco Bell v. Lannon, 744 P.2d 43, 46 (Colo.1987).
That changed when the Colorado General Assembly enacted the Premises Liability Act, C.R.S. 13-21-115. The statute applies to “any civil action against a landowner by a person who alleges injury occurring while on the real property of another and by reason of the condition of such property, or activities conducted or circumstances existing on such property.” Id. § 2. Intending among other things “to protect landowners from liability in some circumstances when they were not so protected at common law,” id. § 1(c), the statute defines landowners’ duties according to the plaintiffs status as either a trespasser, a licensee or an invitee.
In the present cases it is undisputed that Cinemark is a “landowner,” and that the plaintiffs were “invitees.” The statute provides, as relevant here, that “an invitee may recover for damages caused by the landowner’s unreasonable failure to exercise reasonable care to protect against dangers of which he actually knew or should have known.” Id. § 3(c)(1). Thus, the Court does not define Cinemark’s duty to the plaintiffs. Rather, the statute provides that Cinemark owes its theater patrons a duty to exercise reasonable care to protect them against dangers of which Cinemark knew or should have known. See Lombard v. Colorado Outdoor Education Center, Inc., 187 P.3d 565, 568 (Colo.2008).
The difficulty in these cases is to determine what the relevant “danger” is. Plaintiffs allege that the dangerous conditions on the premises include but are not limited to (1) failure to have security guards present, (2) failure to provide reasonable protection against surreptitious entry into a darkened theater, (3) failure to provide reasonable door entry security devices (locking systems, alarms), (4) failure to provide other reasonable security devices (one-way security doors, exit doors interlocked with warning signals, alarms), (5) failure to develop adequate emergency response plans and procedures, (6) failure to provide proper employee training for emergency responses, and (7) failure to provide proper training on reasonable surveillance procedures. E.g., First Amended Complaint in case 12ev2514 [# 14] ¶ 46. However, in my view this is not a list of dangers. Rather, it is plaintiffs’ view of the actions that a reasonable theater owner would take to protect patrons against an unspecified danger. Cf. McIntire v. Trammell Crow, Inc., 172 P.3d 977, 980 (Colo.App.2007) (although the danger must arise from the condition of the property or activities conducted or circumstances existing on the property, “it is not knowledge of the condition, activities or circumstances that gives rise to liability; it is the danger of which the owner actually knew or should have known”).
In short, plaintiffs’ list focuses on Cine-mark’s alleged failure to exercise reasonable care to protect against ... what? A clue to the “what” can be found elsewhere in the same First Amended Complaint. In paragraph 45 plaintiffs allege that the “dangers include the fact of dangerous and criminal activity that had previously taken *1344place at the theater.” Earlier they alleged that Cinemark knew that “previous disturbances, incidents, disruptions and other criminal activities had taken place at or near the property of the theater,” most commonly during the evening hours, including “assaults and robberies” and “at least one shooting, involving gang members.” Id. ¶¶ 5, 8.
However, as a matter of common sense, there is a difference between assaults and robberies in the neighborhood (and what might be done to protect theater patrons from such acts) and a gunman’s surreptitiously entering a theater and, without any motive or reason, randomly shooting as many innocent people as he could. Cf. Lopez v. McDonald’s Corp., 193 Cal.App.3d 495, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436, 445 (1987) (decided under a common law negligence standard).
In contrast, Cinemark’s argument begins, “[t]he essence of the Amended Complaint is that Cinemark ‘should have known’ that James Holmes would commit a mass murderous assault in the Century 16 Theatre ... on July 20, 2012.”1 Motion to Dismiss [# 15] at 1. To state the question that way is to answer it. Of course Cinemark could not be expected to have known that a particular gunman would enter that particular theater on that particular night and commit a mass murder. Even apart from the hyperbole, and despite the tragic fact that mass shootings have become more and more common in our society, this Court will not define the danger so narrowly as to essentially define it away.
Rather, it seems to me, the danger inherent in the construction and operation of this theater was that it allowed someone inside the theater surreptitiously to prop the door leading directly from the theater to the outside open and thereby to permit himself or others to enter the theater undetected and to commit a violent act against one or more patrons inside. The questions then become, (1) did Cinemark know or should it have known that this danger existed, and, if so, (2) did it exercise reasonable care to protect patrons against this danger.
The first of those questions involves what Cinemark knew had happened in the past at this theater and what Cinemark generally knew or should have known about dangers faced by similar theaters. Had there been instances where individuals had entered Cinemark theaters or other theaters surreptitiously through doors leading directly from a theater auditorium to the outside—not to “sneak in” to avoid the ticket price, but to commit a violent act? Was this a phenomenon that was known or should have been known to Cine-mark based on its knowledge of the theater industry? This is where “foreseeability” comes in. As indicated above, the foreseeability and likelihood of injury have historically been considered by Colorado courts in determining whether a landowner owed a duty—a judicial task mooted by the Premises Liability Act. However, foreseeability is inherent in the determination of whether a laiidowner “should have known” that a particular danger existed.
The second question asks what a reasonable theater owner would do to protect theatergoers against the danger. I postulate that some means of relatively rapid egress is needed for the safety and protection of patrons in the event of an emergency. Would a reasonable theater have a door that allows direct access from the theater auditorium to the outside? Is it reasonable to secure the door with some *1345type of interlock system or to fix it, as is sometimes done for example in courthouses, so that an alarm sounds if someone without an access card or code opens it? In what circumstances would a reasonable theater owner hire security personnel? Where would they be stationed? Would they be armed? What would they be trained to look for and to try to prevent? Is it reasonable to expect theater personnel to monitor either the inside or outside of the auditorium, such as by a video camera?
Defendant’s argument, simply stated, is that these plaintiffs did not allege facts that are sufficient to show that Cinemark knew or should have known of the danger latent in the construction and operation of this theater. "To survive a motion to dismiss, a complaint must contain sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to `state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.’" Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) (citing Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007)). "A claim has facial plausibility when the plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable interference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged." Ashcroft, 556 U.S. at 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937. The magistrate judge, although analyzing the case a little differently in some respects than has this Court, determined that plaintiffs’ allegations were sufficient to get by a Rule 12(b)(6) motion. Although I find that it is a close call, I ultimately agree.
Plaintiffs alleged that Cinemark knew that criminal activities had taken place “at or near” the theater. This included assaults, robberies and at least one shooting involving gang activity near the theater. These incidents which commonly occurred at night were such that Cinemark hired security personnel including off-duty law enforcement officers on Friday and Saturday nights when, it-might be inferred, the theater drew larger crowds. Cinemark knew, of course, about the construction of the theater, including doors leading directly from a theater auditorium to the outside.
Plaintiffs have not alleged that any previous incident had occurred at this theater complex or another Cinemark theater where an individual had gained entry to a theater auditorium through an exterior door that had been propped open or left ajar and had then committed an act of violence against people in the auditorium. Plaintiffs have not alleged that it was known or suspected in the theater industry that an incident of that kind either had occurred in the past or might occur in the future. On the other hand, one would not necessarily expect that plaintiffs would have access to such facts. What Cinemark knew on July 19, 2012 may be known only to Cinemark at this point. There sometimes is a fine line between alleging sufficient facts to state a plausible claim and engaging in a fishing expedition.
In that regard I note that in the only Colorado case cited by either party where a trial court dismissed a claim under the Premises Liability Act for failure to state a claim, the dismissal was reversed. Grizzell v. Hartman Enterprises, Inc., 68 P.3d 551, 554-55 (Colo.App.2003). There an employee invited a victim and a perpetrator into a sandwich shop after it had closed. The perpetrator then killed both the victim and the employee. Plaintiff, a parent of the deceased victim, alleged that the shop’s owner knew that employees permitted persons to meet in a back room of the shop to discuss illegal drug activity. In reversing the trial court’s dismissal the court of appeals panel stated, “Parent need not allege that owner had actual knowledge an armed assailant would come in the restaurant and kill the victims. Rather, *1346parent only needed to allege that owner had an active awareness of the dangerous condition or, in this case, the criminal activity at its restaurant and the risks associated with that activity.” Id.
The other Colorado cases discussed by the parties and the Court were decided either on motions for summary judgment or at trial. Likewise, the Lopez case in California, on which Cinemark relies most heavily, was decided on a motion for summary judgment. Another case prominently cited and quoted in Cinemark’s reply brief, Erickson v. Curtis Investment Co., 447 N.W.2d 165, 169 (Minn.1989), was decided by the trial court on a motion for summary judgment, and the even then, the motion was denied.2
Accordingly, this Court concludes that the motions to dismiss the Premises Liability Act claims for failure to state a claim should be denied. The Court accepts the magistrate judge’s recommendation.
Before leaving the requirements of the Premises Liability Act, however, I need to address one other issue. The statute provides that the judge determines whether the plaintiff is a trespasser, a licensee, or an invitee. However, the issues of liability and damages are to be determined by the jury. C.R.S. 13-21-115(4). In this “limited role,” the “only issue of law to be determined by the court is the classification of the injured plaintiff.” Vigil v. Franklin, 103 P.3d 322, 328 (Colo. 2004). One could conclude, as the plaintiffs have suggested, that because the classification of the plaintiffs as invitees is undisputed, this Court has nothing further to decide as a matter of law.
I agree, of course, that the issues of liability and damages are for the jury. However, to get to a jury, the plaintiffs must first state a plausible legal claim and then show that there is genuine dispute of material fact for the jury to resolve. This Court today holds only that plaintiffs have sufficiently stated a claim to survive a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6).
B. Negligence.
Plaintiffs also asserted common law negligence claims. The magistrate judge recommended that those claims be dismissed in the seven cases before him. Those plaintiffs did not object to that recommendation. The recommendation is consistent with the Colorado Supreme Court’s holding that “[t]he express, unambiguous language of subsection (2) of Colorado’s premises liability statute evidences the General Assembly’s intent to establish a comprehensive and exclusive specification of the duties landowners owe to those injured on their property.” Vigil, 103 P.3d at 328. Accord, Lombard, 187 P.3d at 574.
During oral argument before the magistrate judge plaintiffs suggested that the negligence claims might have some basis, notwithstanding the Premises Liability Act, citing Larrieu v. Best Buy Stores, L.P., 491 Fed.Appx. 864 (10th Cir.2012). Some plaintiffs still urge this Court to reserve judgment pending the outcome of Lameu. In that case the court certified to the Colorado Supreme Court the question whether the Premises Liability Act applies to activity on the land but not directly or inherently related to the land. The case involved an accident where a customer was injured when he tripped as he and a store employee were carrying the tailgate of the customer’s trailer, causing the tailgate to fall on him. The accident occurred on Best Buy’s land but had nothing to do with the land as such. As the court put it, the case is about whether the Premises Liability Act “effected a minor *1347adjustment to state premises liability law or whether it rewrote much of state negligence law as well.” Id. at 864. The question has not yet been answered.
I need not hazard a guess as to how that issue will be resolved. The present case does involve claims that are directly related to the land, namely, the construction and operation of the theater and, in particular, the means of direct access from the outside into a theater auditorium and the theater’s means of monitoring and securing that access. If the Colorado Supreme Court issues a decision that logically suggests that plaintiffs’ negligence claims were viable, and if the plaintiffs then wish to reinstate those claims, the Court will consider the situation at that time. On the present record, the negligence claims will be dismissed in all ten cases.
C. Wrongful Death Claims.
In certain of the cases referred to the magistrate judge a parent or parents of a deceased victim included a wrongful death claim either under the “Wrongful Death Act,” C.R.S. §§ 13-21-201 to 13-21-204, or more specifically under § 13-21-202. That section provides that “[w]hen the death of a person is caused by a wrongful act, neglect, or default of another, and the act, neglect or default is such as would, if death had not ensured, have entitled the party injured to maintain an action and recover damages in respect thereof, then, and in every such case, the person who or the corporation which would have been liable, if death had not ensured, shall be liable in an action for damages notwithstanding the death of the party injured.”
Cinemark responded to those claims in footnotes, arguing that they stand or fall with plaintiffs’ Premises Liability Act claim. See, e.g., case 12cv2704, Motion [# 7] at 7 n. 4. The plaintiffs did not say much in response. The magistrate judge essentially lumped the wrongful death claims with the negligence claims. This was understandable, not only because of the tepid response but also because the heading preceding C.R.S. §§ 13-21-201 et seq. is “Damages for Death by Negligence.”
Plaintiffs then objected to his recommendation and explained, largely for the first time, their position on the wrongful death claims. These plaintiffs now agree that the basis for liability, if any, is the Premises Liability Act. However, they argue that if liability is established under the Premises’ Liability Act, then Cinemark would have committed a “wrongful act” that would permit them to pursue a derivative claim under C.R.S. § 13-21-202. Essentially, these plaintiffs appear to agree with Cinemark on this issue. I note that Cinemark has not responded to the objections concerning the wrongful death claims.
Inasmuch as no one has presented any argument or authority as to why these parents cannot pursue a derivative claim under C.R.S. § 13-21-202, I conclude that these claims should not be dismissed so long as the Premises Liability Act claims are not dismissed.
IV. ORDER.
1. The recommendation of the magistrate judge as to the seven cases as to which the recommendation was directed, for example docket # 41 in case 12ev2514, is ACCEPTED after de novo review, except as to the wrongful death claims in certain of the cases.
2. Defendants’ motions to dismiss in each of the ten cases, for example docket # 15 in case 12cv2514, are GRANTED IN PART AND DENIED IN PART. The negligence claims are dismissed with prejudice. The Premises Liability Act claims are not dismissed. To the extent wrongful *1348death claims are derivative of liability under the Premises Liability Act, they are not dismissed.
3. Cinemark’s unopposed motions to consolidate the ten listed cases for purposes of discovery and motion practice consistent with the terms of this Court’s scheduling order issued on November 26, 2012, for example docket #48 in case 12cv2514, are GRANTED.
RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
MICHAEL E. HEGARTY, United States Magistrate Judge.Before the Court are the Defendant’s consolidated Motions to Dismiss [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv251f); docket #15], [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv2517); docket #19], [filed November 7, 2012 (12cv2687); docket #17], [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv270f); docket # 7], [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv2705); docket # 6], [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv2706); docket # 7], and [filed November 6, 2012 (12cv2900); docket # 7]. In accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and D.C. Colo. LCivR 72.1 C, the matters are referred to this Court for recommendation. The motions are fully briefed, and the Court heard oral argument on December 14, 2012. Based upon the entire record contained herein, the Court RECOMMENDS that Defendant’s motions be granted in part and denied in part.1
BACKGROUND
Although the Plaintiffs are represented by different counsel and bring separate actions against the Defendant, the injuries complained of occurred at the same time and as a result of the same event. Consequently, the allegations raised in the Plaintiffs’ pleadings are substantially similar, as are the arguments raised in the present motions. With the parties’ consent, Judge Jackson consolidated the present motions for adjudication.
Here, relying upon the well-pleaded factual allegations made by the Plaintiffs in the operative pleadings, the Court repeats the Plaintiffs’ allegations of fact (as opposed to legal conclusions, bare assertions, or merely conclusory allegations), which are taken as true only for analysis under Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) pursuant to Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009).
I. Allegations of Fact
Before July 20, 2012, Defendant had information that previous disturbances, incidents, disruptions and other criminal activities had taken place at or near the property of the theater. These incidents most commonly took place during the evening hours. Based upon this knowledge, *1349Defendant hired various security personnel, including off-duty law enforcement officers from the City of Aurora Police Department. Such security personnel were not present at all times the theater was open; rather, those guards were placed on Friday and Saturday nights only.
Included in the previous incidents near the theater was at least one shooting, involving gang members. However, Plaintiffs do not allege a single prior shooting incident at the theater. These previous incidents also included assaults and robberies.
The theater advertised and sold tickets to the July 20, 2012 midnight premier of the movie, “The Dark Knight Rises.” Defendant charged people who attended the movie, and the theater showed the movie in more than one auditorium because of the large crowds the theater anticipated. No security personnel were present for that showing; however, security personnel were present at the theater earlier in the day, when box office cash was being transferred.
The exterior doors to the theater were lacking in any alarm system, interlocking security systems, or any other security or alarm features. Defendant did not have in place any security practices or procedures, nor did it employ or adequately train any employee or security personnel to prevent or deter someone from surreptitiously entering or re-entering the theater through an unlocked and unalarmed door.
The theater had public parking available on all sides of the theater, including behind Auditorium 9 in which the incident occurred. There was no system or procedure for theater employees to survey or monitor the parking areas and external doors behind or to the sides of the theater.
One of the people present in the theater at the midnight showing made a surreptitious entry by entering the theater on at least one occasion through a door that was located at the right, front side of the screen inside Auditorium 9. Hereinafter, that person will be referred to as “the gunman.” The gunman purchased a ticket and entered the theater initially through the normal patron entrance. Later, after the theater lights were darkened and the screen projection began, the gunman left his seat and moved to an exterior door, located at the right, front of the movie screen, exiting to the parking area.
At some point, the gunman moved his car so that he was parked very near to the exterior door to Auditorium 9. While the screen projection continued in the darkened theater, the gunman opened the exterior door to Auditorium 9, put the door in a position where it would remain open, and went to his car where he had earlier parked outside that exterior door. That door was unlocked and had no alarm or other monitoring system to guard against the door being kept open or to warn that the door was open and remained opened for an extended period of time. The gunman had parked his car in the available parking spaces directly outside of the exterior door to Auditorium 9.
The gunman had a small arsenal of weapons, including, but not limited to, one or more fully loaded shotguns, an AR-15 assault rifle, one or more fully loaded, semi-automatic Glock handguns, and several tear gas canisters. The gunman also retrieved and put on body armor and a gas mask. He also had significant amounts of ammunition, including a fully loaded “banana clip” for the assault rifle.
The gunman made one or more trips from his car through the open exterior door of Auditorium 9, bringing his arsenal and ammunition through that open door. Plaintiffs’ Complaints do not identify whether there was some sort of foyer or other buffer between the outer door and the theater, or whether the gunman was *1350actually accumulating weapons in the auditorium itself. Throughout that time, no employee or security personnel contacted the gunman, deterred him, monitored him or stopped him from that re-entry.
Plaintiffs Denise Traynom, Brandon Axelrod, Joshua Nowlan, Dion Rosborough, Ryan Lumba, Tony Bi'iscoe, and Louis Duran attended the July 20, 2012 midnight showing of “The Dark Knight Rises.” Also in attendance were Alexander J. Boik, Veronica Moser-Sullivan, Micayla Medek, and Matthew McQuinn.2 These individuals were among members of the public who purchased tickets to see the movie from Defendant and were seated in Auditorium 9 of the Century Aurora 16.
The gunman began his assault by throwing tear gas canisters into the auditorium. The gunman was still standing near the doorway at the bottom of the theater, to the right of the screen, when he began the assault. During the incident, the gunman opened fire with various firearms and shot numerous people. Many individuals in Auditorium 9, and at least one person in Auditorium 8, were struck by gunfire.
Plaintiff Nowlan ducked down behind the seats, because people trying to escape were being shot by the gunman. Mr. Nowlan was shot in his right arm, nearly severing the arm. He was also shot in his left leg. He suffered significant and disabling injuries to his arm and leg. Eventually, Mr. Nowlan was assisted by members of the Aurora Police Department, who removed him from the theater. Because there were no ambulances available, those police officers put Mr. Nowlan in an Aurora patrol car and drove him to the hospital themselves.
Plaintiffs Traynom and Axelrod ducked down behind the seats, because people trying to escape were being shot by the gunman. Ms. Traynom was shot in the gluteus maximus, and Mr. Axelrod suffered significant orthopedic injuries to his right knee and ankle.
Plaintiffs Rosborough, Lumba, Duran were struck by gunfire while attempting to flee Auditorium 9. Alexander J. Boik was struck by gunfire and killed.
Matthew McQuinn used his body to shield his girlfriend from the gunfire; he was struck by gunfire died in the theater complex. Micayla Medek was struck in the chest by gunfire causing catastrophic injuries to her lungs, heart and spine; she died in the theater complex. Veronica Moser-Sullivan suffered fatal wounds from gunfire and died in the theater complex.
After the initial episode where the gunman threw the tear gas canisters, the gunman continued shooting people for many minutes. All through the incident, the movie continued to play, and the houselights remained very low or off. There was no alarm activated during the period the gunman was stockpiling his arsenal and while he was inside the theater shooting people. Theater employees took no action to evacuate the people left in Auditorium 9. No security personnel and no theater employee intervened during the entirety of the incident.
The gunman continued shooting throughout the Auditorium until eventually his weapon jammed. Then, the gunman walked back out of the theater through the same door he used to enter and sat in his car. It took several minutes for law enforcement to arrive. During the entirety of that time, the movie continued playing, and the house lights remained very low or off.
*1351II. Procedural History
Based upon the allegations set forth above, the Plaintiffs bring claims for negligence, for wrongful death (as applicable), and for violations of the Colorado Premises Liability Act, Colo.Rev.Stat. 13-21-115 et seq. (“CPLA”). With respect to the CPLA, the Plaintiffs identify the following as alleged “dangers or dangerous conditions” existing on the premises:
a. Failure to employ and have present at the time of the showing of this movie security guards (including, but not limited to, off-duty law enforcement officers) to protect against and reduce the risk of unlawful conduct that posed a risk of injury or death to patrons;
b. Failure to provide reasonable protection against surreptitious, unauthorized entry into the darkened theater viewing areas;
c. Failure to provide reasonable door entry security devices, including, but not limited to, automatic locking doors, alarms, warning signals and other such devices on the door located the right, front of Auditorium 9;
d. Failure to provide other reasonable security devices such as one-way security doors, exit doors interlocked with warning signals, alarms, light or other devices which would put personnel on notice of any surreptitious, unauthorized entry into the darkened theater viewing areas;
e. Failure to develop, establish and institute adequate emergency or first-aid response and evacuation plans and procedures for patrons in the theater in the event circumstances called for such procedures;
f. Failure to properly train employees in emergency, crisis and first-aid response and evacuation procedures;
g. Failure to properly train employees or provide reasonable surveillance procedures including, but not limited to, surveillance devices, monitors, cameras and human surveillance or monitoring of suspicious activity.

In response to the Complaints, Defendant filed the present motions to dismiss arguing that Plaintiffs fail to state claims under the CPLA because they fail to assert facts supporting the claim’s required element that the mass shooting was foreseeable as a matter of law. Further, Defendant contends the Plaintiffs fail to state negligence or wrongful death claims, because the CPLA is the exclusive remedy for injuries occurring while on the landowner’s property and by reason of the condition of such property or activities conducted, or circumstances existing, on such property.
Plaintiffs respond that Defendant improperly restricts the definition of “danger” set forth in the CPLA to the mass shooting, rather than to the conditions of the premises or to general criminal activity that occurred previously at or near the theater. Plaintiffs assert that the Defendant’s hiring of security personnel on nights anticipated to be crowded at the theater demonstrates that third-party criminal activity was foreseeable, or was a danger about which the theater knew or should have known. Furthermore, the Plaintiffs claim that discovery is necessary to determine whether their negligence or wrongful death claims are premised upon the Defendant’s duty as a landowner, rather than on other unidentified duties owed to Plaintiffs.
Defendant replies the CPLA requires that the danger which caused the injury is the same danger about which Defendant must have known or should have known. Defendant argues that, here, the injury-causing event was the mass shooting, and *1352that such mass shooting is the danger about which the Plaintiffs must eventually prove the Defendant knew or should have known to define its duty to protect the Plaintiffs.
LEGAL STANDARD
“To survive a motion to dismiss, a complaint must contain sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to `state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.’" Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) (quoting Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007)). Plausibility, in the context of a motion to dismiss, means that the plaintiff pled facts which allow "the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged." Id. Twombly requires a two-prong analysis. First, a court must identify "the allegations in the complaint that are not entitled to the assumption of truth," that is, those allegations which are legal conclusions, bare assertions, or merely conclusory. Id. at 678-80, 129 S.Ct. 1937. Second, the Court must consider the factual allegations "to determine if they plausibly suggest an entitlement to relief." Id. at 681, 129 S.Ct. 1937. "Thus, in ruling on a motion to dismiss, a court should disregard all conclusory statements of law and consider whether the remaining specific factual allegations, if assumed to be true, plausibly suggest the defendant is liable." Kansas Penn Gaming, LLC v. Collins, 656 F.3d 1210, 1214 (10th Cir.2011).
Plausibility refers "to the scope of the allegations in a complaint: if they are so general that they encompass a wide swath of conduct, much of it innocent, then the plaintiffs `have not nudged their claims across the line from conceivable to plausible.’" Khalik v. United Air Lines, 671 F.3d 1188, 1191 (10th Cir.2012) (quoting Robbins v. Oklahoma, 519 F.3d 1242, 1247 (10th Cir.2008)). "The nature and specificity of the allegations required to state a plausible claim will vary based on context." Kansas Penn Gaming, LLC, 656 F.3d at 1215. Thus, while the Rule 12(b)(6) standard does not require that a plaintiff establish a prima facie case in a complaint, the elements of each alleged cause of action may help to determine whether the plaintiff has set forth a plausible claim. Khalik, 671 F.3d at 1191.
ANALYSIS
In its motions, Defendant argues the mass shooting itself is not reasonably foreseeable as a matter of law and, thus, Defendant should not be held liable under the CPLA. Further, Defendant contends that the CPLA is the exclusive remedy for damages against landowners and, thus, Plaintiffs have failed to state claims for negligence and wrongful death. With the applicable legal standard in mind, the Court will analyze each claim to determine whether Plaintiffs have stated plausible claims for relief.
I. Colorado Premises Liability Act
For purposes of these motions, it is undisputed that Defendant is a “landowner” and the Plaintiffs are “invitees” under the statute.
The CPLA provides, in relevant part, “In any civil action brought against a landowner by a person who alleges injury occurring while on the real property of another and by reason of the condition of such property, or activities conducted or circumstances existing on such property, the landowner shall be liable only as provided in subsection (3) of this section.” Colo.Rev.Stat. § 13-21-115(2) (2012). With respect to an “invitee,” a landowner, subject to exceptions not applicable here, is liable for injuries caused by the failure “to exercise reasonable care to protect against dangers of which he actually knew *1353or should have known.” Colo.Rev.Stat. § 13—21—115(3)(c)(I) (2012).
Defendant contends that this Court should follow the analysis and holding in Lopez v. McDonald’s, 193 Cal.App.3d 495, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436 (Cal.Ct.App.1987) and conclude that the mass shooting is not foreseeable as a matter of law. Further, Defendant argues that “foreseeability” and the statute’s language “should have known” are synonymous, and that the mass shooting is a danger about which a commercial enterprise should not have known as a matter of law.
A. Interpretation of CPLA
The CPLA provides that “the judge shall determine whether the plaintiff is a trespasser, licensee or invitee ... [t]he issues of liability and damages in any such action shall be determined by the jury or, if there is no jury, by the judge.” Colo. Rev.Stat. § 13-21-115(4) (2012). The Colorado Supreme Court has interpreted this section as follows:
At common law the existence of a duty was a question of law to be determined by the court. Under the premises liability statute, the only issue of law to be determined by the court is the classification of the injured plaintiff; liability and damages are questions of fact to be determined by the finder of fact. In keeping with our responsibility to give effect to every word and term contained within the statute, if possible, a judge’s common law obligation to determine the existence of landowner duties is inconsistent with the limited role the statute assigns the judge, and would impermissibly enlarge the role of the court beyond that indicated in the statute’s plain language.
Vigil v. Franklin, 103 P.3d 322, 328 (Colo. 2004) (en banc) (citations omitted) (emphasis added); see also Wycoff v. Grace Commun. Church of the Assemblies of God, 251 P.3d 1260, 1265 (Colo.App.2010) ("[a] landowner’s duties turn on a trial court’s determination of whether the plaintiff was an `invitee,’ a `licensee,’ or a `trespasser.’") (emphasis added). Therefore, the Colorado Supreme Court makes clear that the common law analysis of the existence of a duty no longer applies for claims brought under the CPLA by persons alleging injury that occupied on the property of another and arose out of a condition of the property or by activities conducted on the property.
B. Applicability of Lopez
Defendant contends that the opinion in Lopez is directly on point and should be followed by this Court to conclude that the mass shooting is not foreseeable by a commercial landowner as a matter of law. In Lopez, the California Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court’s summary judgment decision in favor of McDonald’s that the company owed no duty to the plaintiffs because the "mass murderous assault" that occurred in a McDonald’s restaurant was not foreseeable as a matter of law. 193 Cal.App.3d at 500, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436. In so affirming, the Lopez court cites the general rule in California that "all persons have a duty to employ ordinary care to prevent others from being injured as a result of their conduct." Id. at 505, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436. This general rule arose from the California Supreme Court’s opinion in Rowland v. Christian, 69 Cal.2d 108, 70 Cal.Rptr. 97, 443 P.2d 561 (Cal.1968) in which the court removed from the duty analysis the status of the plaintiff as invitee, licensee or trespasser. Id., 70 Cal.Rptr. 97, 443 P.2d at 568 ("The proper test to be applied to the liability of the possessor of land ... is whether in the management of his property he has acted as a reasonable man in view of the probability of injury to others, and, although the plaintiffs status as a trespasser, licensee, or *1354invitee may in the light of the facts giving rise to such status have some bearing on the question of liability, the status is not determinative."); see also Campbell v. Ford Motor Co., 206 Cal.App.4th 15, 27, 141 Cal.Rptr.3d 390, 398-99 (Cal.Ct.App. 2012).
The Lopez court cites Rowland in describing the factors that must be analyzed by a court in determining whether a duty of care exists, one of which is the foreseeability of harm to the plaintiff. Lopez, 193 Cal.App.3d at 506, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436 (“The Rowland analysis of landowner liability directs the court to weigh the foreseeability of harm with a nonexhaustive list of other factors and policy considerations in determining whether liability should be restricted within the factual context of a specific case.”). In analyzing whether McDonald’s owed the plaintiffs a duty of care, the Lopez court found that it must determine whether the risk of harm was reasonably foreseeable (id. at 508, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436) and, considering the totality of the circumstances, concluded that the “mass murderous assault” was not foreseeable. Id. at 509, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436.
This Court concludes that the Lopez analysis is not applicable in this case. First, California’s general rule concerning duty of care, as stated by the Rowland court, is inconsistent with a landowner’s duties of care described in the CPLA. The Colorado legislature specifically set forth the scope of a landowner’s duty in the CPLA based upon the status of the plaintiff as an invitee, licensee or trespasser. Colo.Rev.Stat. § 13-21-115(3). Second, the Lopez court engaged in a foreseeability analysis while determining the existence of a duty.3 Such analysis is proper under the common law; however, as the Colorado Supreme Court has made clear, such analysis is improper under the CPLA. Vigil, 103 P.3d at 328 (“a judge’s common law obligation to determine the existence of landowner duties is inconsistent with the limited role the statute assigns the judge, and would impermissibly enlarge the role of the court beyond that indicated in the statute’s plain language.”).4 Again, the statute imposes upon landowners specific duties of care, depending upon the status of the plaintiff. Thus, whether a duty exists under the CPLA is determined based only upon whether the defendant is *1355a landowner and, if so, the scope of the duty is based upon whether the plaintiff is an invitee, licensee or trespasser.
C. Stating a Claim under the CPLA
So, if it is undisputed in this case that the Defendant is a landowner and the Plaintiffs are invitees, and the scope of the duty has been defined by statute, what is the proper analysis at this stage of the litigation? According to the Colorado Supreme Court, “a landowner clearly can argue that he owed no duty under the statute” to an invitee by arguing that he did not actually know of the danger, that there are no circumstances demonstrating he should have known about the danger, and that he exercised reasonable care or did not unreasonably fail to do so. Vigil, 103 P.3d at 330. However, there is no indication in Vigil that these arguments are properly made under a Rule 12(b)(6) analysis of the four corners of the Complaint. Indeed, such arguments are historically and logically considered at the summary judgment stage, taking into consideration the fruits of the discovery process.
Here, Defendant contends that “foreseeability” and the statutory language, “should have known,” are synonymous, and that Plaintiffs fail to state facts supporting a claim that the mass shooting is a foreseeable danger. In other words, Defendant appears to argue that the facts, taken as true, fail to demonstrate Defendant should have known about the mass shooting. Plaintiffs counter that the dangers about which Defendant should have known were the previous dangerous and criminal activity at the theater and the condition of the premises—the alleged unsecured, unmonitored exit door, the lack of security personnel, etc.5 In light of these dangers, Plaintiffs claim that their facts, taken as true, demonstrate Defendant knew or should have known that patrons may be at risk of injury from crime occurring in the crowded theaters due to such conditions.
Both the mass shooting and the lack of security, monitoring, etc. are contemplated by the CPLA as causes of injuries to persons on the defendant’s property. That is, the statute provides, “[i]n any civil action brought against a landowner by a person who alleges injury occurring while on the real property of another and by reason of the condition of such property, or activities conducted or circumstances existing on such property, the landowner shall be liable only as provided in subsection (3) of this section.” Colo.Rev.Stat. § 13-21-115(2). Here, Plaintiffs allege their injuries occurred while at the theater and by reason of the condition of the property. Defendant’s theory necessarily states that the injuries occurred while at the theater and by reason of an activity conducted or circumstances existing on the property. Each theory, on its face, appears to be a proper interpretation of the CPLA.
Defendant contends that Plaintiffs’ theory is improper as “putting the cart before the horse.” According to Defendant, an unsecured, unmonitored exit door in a movie theater is not, on its own, dangerous, and the lack of security measures about which Plaintiffs complain actually goes to the question of whether Defendant took reasonable care to protect its patrons. But, through its own theory, Defendant asks the Court to find that the sole cause of Plaintiffs’ injuries was the mass shoot*1356ing. Certainly, such finding is improper at this early stage of the litigation. However, even if Defendant were correct and the Court were to accept only Defendant’s, theory of the case, the Court finds that dismissal of the CPLA claim before the exchange of discovery would be improper.
Plaintiffs allege that, prior to the mass shooting at issue here, Defendant had information of previous criminal activity, including assaults, robberies and a gang shooting, that occurred at or near the theater and, based upon such information, hired off-duty law enforcement officers from the City of Aurora Police Department to be present on Friday and Saturday nights when the theater typically was crowded. Plaintiffs further allege that the exterior theater doors lacked alarms, monitoring and interlocking security systems, and that no security personnel were on duty during the incident in question. These allegations alone plausibly support a claim that Defendant knew or should have known that a crime may occur due to dangers at or near the premises during crowded periods. However, the extent of Defendant’s knowledge in this case has yet to be explored. Discovery may reveal that other more serious crimes had occurred at or near the theater and that Defendant had knowledge of such crimes. Further, as the Court noted at the hearing, discovery might show that Defendant had knowledge of and/or concern for the numerous mass shootings that had taken place in the United States in recent times. As the CPLA demonstrates, Defendant, a landowner, has a higher duty of care to its patrons, or “invitees” (Wycoff, 251 P.3d at 1265), and the extent of its knowledge of such duty should be explored.
In fact, even the opinions on which Defendant relies in its briefing for finding no duty “as a matter of law” (which, as set forth above, are not applicable to a CPLA analysis) are reached after discovery was completed. For example, in Lopez, the court acknowledged the necessity of reviewing the “ ‘totality of the circumstances, including the nature, condition and location of the defendant’s premises” in engaging in a duty analysis. Lopez, 193 Cal.App.3d at 509, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436. The court in Lopez considered not only the types of crimes that had actually occurred at or near the restaurant, but also the number of mass shootings that had occurred in the United States at that time to conclude:
Huberty’s deranged and motiveless attack, apparently the worst mass killing by a single assailant in recent American history,6 is so unlikely to occur within the setting of modern life that a reasonably prudent business enterprise would not consider its occurrence in attempting to satisfy its general obligation to protect business invitees from reasonably foreseeable criminal conduct.
Id. at 509-10, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436. The same is true in other cases cited by Defendant. See supra at 15, n. 4.7 Although *1357these cases are not necessarily applicable to an analysis under the CPLA, they demonstrate that even when determining a duty “as a matter of law,” courts generally consider the totality of the circumstances and all applicable evidence.
Therefore, based upon the CPLA’s imposition of a duty of care to a landowner, the statute’s express limitation of a court’s role in deciding the existence and scope of such duty, and a finding that Plaintiffs have plausibly stated claims under the CPLA pursuant to either theory of recovery, the Court respectfully recommends that the District Court deny Defendant’s motion to dismiss Plaintiffs’ claims for relief under the CPLA.
II. Negligence Claims
Defendant argues that Plaintiffs may not allege negligence or wrongful death claims8 in addition to CPLA claims, since the CPLA provides the exclusive remedy for Plaintiffs’ claims against the Defendant. Plaintiffs acknowledge that the CPLA has abrogated all negligence claims against a landowner, but counter that they *1358have claims against Defendant for failure to train employees to monitor the premises and respond to emergencies, which might not be raised against Defendant as a “landowner.” Plaintiffs assert that their claims should not be dismissed prior to discovery or to an answer from the Colorado Supreme Court to a question certified by the Tenth Circuit (in an unrelated case) concerning whether the CPLA applies to injuries caused by a landowner during an activity not directly or inherently related to the land.
The Colorado Supreme Court has made clear, and other courts have agreed, that the CPLA has abrogated all common law torts against landowners in Colorado. See Vigil, 103 P.3d at 329 (“our analysis of the premises liability statute convinces us that the General Assembly clearly and manifestly expressed its intent, through the plain language of the statute, to abrogate the common law of landowner duties”); Wycoff, 251 P.3d at 1265 (“[t]he Act provides the sole remedy against landowners for injuries on their property.”); see also Wyle v. Skiwatch Condominium Corp., 183 Fed.Appx. 760, 762 (10th Cir.2006) (“Colorado’s premises liability statute provides the exclusive remedy against a landowner for injuries sustained on the landowner’s property.”). Therefore, so long as a person alleges injury that occurred on the property of another and arose out of a condition of the property or by activities conducted on the property, the claim must be brought solely under the CPLA.
Plaintiffs argue that their claims for failure to train employees to monitor the premises and respond to emergencies may not arise against Defendant in its role as a "landowner." However, courts in Colorado have determined that the CPLA abrogates claims of negligent training, supervision and retention when the claims relate to conditions of or activities occurring on the property. See Casey v. Christie Lodge Owners Assoc., Inc., 923 P.2d 365, 367-68 (Colo.App.1996) (plaintiffs claims that defendant negligently supervised and retained its employees were related to condition of the premises and, thus, were barred by CPLA); Danielson v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., No. 06-cv-00053-EWN, 2006 WL 2385215, at *3 (Aug. 17, 2006) (citing Vigil, court found plaintiffs claims for negligent hiring, training and supervision were abrogated by the CPLA). Here, Plaintiffs’ claims for Defendant’s alleged failure to train employees to monitor the premises and respond to emergencies are clearly related to injuries that occurred on Defendant’s property and arose out of a condition of the property or by activities conducted on the property.
Plaintiffs also assert that the Court should await a decision by the Colorado Supreme Court as to the following question certified by the Tenth Circuit in Larrieu v. Best Buy Stores, L.P., 491 Fed. Appx. 864 (10th Cir.2012): "Does Colorado’s Premises Liability Act (Colo.Rev.Stat. § 13-21-115) apply to injuries caused by a defendant-landowner’s employee during an activity not directly or inherently related to the land?" Plaintiffs make no argument in support of their request to await the decision, other than to state that "the scope of the [CPLA] is currently under review.”
The Court finds that an answer to the certified question would not affect a Rule 12(b)(6) analysis in this case of whether the Plaintiffs’ negligence claims are plausibly stated. That is, in Larrieu, the cause of the injury was undisputed; the plaintiffs injury was caused when the plaintiff and defendant’s employee were carrying a truck’s tailgate on the defendant’s property, and the tailgate dropped on the plaintiff when he tripped and fell. All parties in Larrieu agree that the injury was caused by an activity on defendant’s property. *1359Here, however, the “cause” of Plaintiffs’ injuries is disputed and it has not been determined whether the cause was due to a condition of or activity occurring on the property; thus, an answer in either the positive or the negative to the certified question does not impact the Plaintiffs’ claims at this stage of the litigation. Accordingly, without persuasive argument or applicable authority, the Court finds that awaiting an answer from the Colorado Supreme Court is unnecessary for a determination of whether Plaintiffs’ claims are abrogated by the CPLA.
As set forth above, Plaintiffs’ factual allegations state claims under the CPLA. Absent allegations that Plaintiffs’ injuries occurred other than on Defendant’s property and did not arise out of a condition of the property or by activities conducted on the property, and in accordance with prevailing ease law, the Court concludes that Plaintiffs’ claims for negligence and wrongful death are abrogated by the CPLA and must be dismissed. Therefore, the Court respectfully recommends that the District Court grant the Defendant’s motion to dismiss the Plaintiffs negligence and wrongful death claims, as applicable.
CONCLUSION
Plaintiffs state plausible claims under the Colorado Premises Liability Act (“CPLA”). However, the CPLA abrogates all tort claims against landowners in Colorado; thus, Plaintiffs fail to state claims for negligence and wrongful death in this case. Accordingly, the Court respectfully RECOMMENDS the Defendant’s Motions to Dismiss [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv2514); docket # 15], [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv2517); docket #19], [filed November 7, 2012 (12cv2687); docket #17], ¡filed October 18, 2012 (12cv270f); docket # 7], [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv2705); docket # 6], [filed October 18, 2012 (12cv2706); docket # 7], and [filed November 6, 2012 (12cv2900); docket # 7] be GRANTED in part and DENIED in part as set forth herein.

. In fact, the Colorado Supreme Court recognized the conclusions of "two well-respected commentators” that "[d]ecades of evolution in the common law were swept aside by 1986 House Bill 1205 [the premises liability statute]. That legislation changed the rules to such an extent that Colorado appellate decisions based upon common-law principles are of little or no authority for claims subject to the new legislation.” Vigil, 103 P.3d at 329 (quoting 7 John W. Grund & J. Kent Miller, Colorado Personal Injury Practice—Torts and Insurance § 19. 1, at 310 (2d ed. 2000)).
. These alleged dangers are listed above, under the "Procedural History” section. Although only Plaintiffs Traynom, Axelrod and Nowlan specify in their Amended Complaints that the lack of security and monitoring on the premises are dangerous conditions about which Defendant should have known, the parties agree that the Plaintiffs’ claims and arguments are consolidated for the purpose of adjudicating the present motions.
. In Lopez, a decision issued in 1987, the Court noted that nine motiveless mass shootings had occurred in the United States in the span of 38 years (five had occurred in the previous five years). Lopez, 193 Cal.App.3d at 510 n. 9, 238 Cal.Rptr. 436. Recently, ABC News reported a total of 14 mass shootings in the United States between 2009 and 2012 — four in 2009, one in 2010, three in 2011 and six in 2012. Cristina Costantini, A Look at Mass Shootings in the United States, ABC News (Dec. 14, 2012), http://abcnews.go.com/ABC_Univision/News/mass-shootings-rise-us/story?id= 17978004. It may well be that events such as these remain so random, unpredictable and uncommon that no liability can be imposed upon the theater, but that decision shall await another day. For the time being, the Court believes discovery is necessary to address foreseeability.
. A week following the December 14, 2012 hearing and without prompting by this Court, Defendant filed a document titled, "Supplemental Authority in Support of the Motions to *1357Dismiss." In the supplement, Defendant lists several cases in support of its argument that "trial courts have dismissed third-party criminal conduct cases at the Rule 12 stage." A review of Defendant’s cited cases reveals they are materially distinguishable from the present case as follows: (1) in Schwartz v. Matol Botanical Int’l, No. 91-2068, 1992 WL 229286, at *2 (6th Cir. Sept. 17. 1992), the court affirmed the trial court’s dismissal pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) of a negligence claim, finding that the defendant owed no duty under Michigan law to a plaintiff who was raped while attending a seminar, "particularly when, as here, the business is not the owner/occupier of the land upon which the attack occurred."; (2) in Stewart v. Kids Inc. of Dallas, 245 Or.App. 267, 261 P.3d 1272, 1277 (Or.Ct.App.2011), the court affirmed the trial court’s dismissal of a negligence claim against a landowner citing applicable Oregon cases for the proposition that, "even when a plaintiff alleges a special relationship as the basis for the defendant’s duty, the scope of that [particular] duty may be defined or limited by common-law principles such as foreseeability."; (3) the opinion in Cray v. Mc-Donald’s Corp., 874 S.W.2d 44, 47 (Tenn.Ct. App.1993) was abrogated by the Tennessee Supreme Court’s opinion in McChmg v. Delta Square Ltd. P’shp, 937 S.W.2d 891, 905 (Tenn. 1996), which after considering the evidence on summary judgment, found that issues of fact existed concerning whether the defendant business owed a duty to take reasonable steps to protect the plaintiff customer from having been abducted from the parking lot and, later, raped and murdered; (4) in Petrauskas v. Wexenthaller Realty Mgmt., Inc., 186 Ill.App.3d 820, 134 Ill.Dec. 556, 542 N.E.2d 902, 908 (Ill.Ct.App.1989), the court affirmed the trial court’s dismissal of a negligence claim against a landlord based upon common-law negligence principles and citing an Illinois Supreme Court case for the general rule that a landlord does not have a duty to protect tenants from the criminal acts of third persons on the premises, unless there is a showing that the landlord failed to keep the common areas of his building in a reasonably safe condition or unless the plaintiff can show prior incidents similar to the one complained of and which arc connected with the physical condition of the premises; (5) in Zimring v.
