They were good when I was a kid. I couldn't go now though. I can't even stand the movie theather as it doesn't compare to the home theather set-up I have.

Do they still have drive in movies?  I haven't been to one in years.  Here in Illinois, they discontinued all of them, which is a shame.  They were great in the summer.

Yep!  There are still a few around.  Several years ago some local people revamped and reopened the local drive-in theater.  It is a big hit as it is the only one for miles and miles.

We try to go once every summer - a nice warm night when we can sit in our lawn chairs outside of our vehicles is the best way....

It is a lot of fun!

We don't have one in our town.  We do have one 30 minutes away but never seem to make it there.  We talk about going and we should.  Used to love them!!

I love drive in movies!  I haven't been to one since I was a kid.  We would wear our pajamas and play on the playground until the movie started. Then race back to the car and have some chips and a soda( which we were never allowed to have any other time).  It is a great childhood memory.

We have one pretty close to where I live, but the last movie I saw there was the Dark Knight. There was another movie that played after that but I didnt stay for it. For 2 people and 2 movies though it was like $5 so that was pretty cheap IMO. Would love to go back if I didn't work the graveyard shift all the time at my current job >.>

I LOVE THE DRIVE-IN!!!  My husband and I just went on Friday night and saw a double feature of New Moon and Eclipse.  I like the atmosphere much better than that of a movie theater.

 unfortunately I have never been to a drive in movie. I would think that I would enjoy the experience of going to a drive in, I always wanted to

YES!!!!! :notworthy: The last drive in movie I ever saw was  STAR WARS!!!!  (in Minnesota). I remember I watched on the top of our station wagon. Too bad they don't have anything like that here in Florida. I hate it when I'm in a packed movie theater, you can't breath, there are always some distractions from others like, people that want to have a conversation during the movie or people that bring their screaming babies during the movie. I go to the movies to escape from reality not be exposed to it. Sigh, I wish they would bring back DRIVE in MOVIES!

Sometimes. Getting to see 2-3 movies for the price of 1 is awesome and it's a summer tradition BUT the mosquitoes are annoying(painful too) even with the pails.
