So, how many shot back at the attacker in that movie theater?

None, because movie theaters are gun-free zones, so, naturally, the only person that had the gun was the criminal attacker. See also: http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=4465 Now compare to this case: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sKQl-Qp5W0&feature=youtu... where somebody on the scene did have a gun.
