in this time of movies home, I choose the movies in the street.
this is my fascination: Drive-in; the ideal mixture of the private with the public, of the I summon with the glance on the neighboring car; the erotic to balance of the cars mixed with the drama in the screen; somebody doesn't want to see the film... he has other to do!

thank you for you share the information for who likes this way of seeing: out and inside; drive-in> life way? when running of the time...

We have a four screen drive in near us. We don't get a chance to go as often as we would like.

Now I want to go

Mach said:

oh cool.

I have a couple around me, everyone tells me it's so nice but I've never been

ingamilo said:

you're welcome

matthewgrant said:

They're fun - go try

Yes, it's allways very nice, you must go, but try a realy drive-in, there is nobody in the picture...
choose another one: http://www.driveinmovie.com/

I'm sure you will enjoy it, even if you don't see the film, but there are so many interesting things we can do in a drive-in ...

That is so cool. The Drive-In theater in the animated gif is the Cottage View. It's the one that we bring our daughter to a couple times a year, as it's only one of three that are still around in Minnesota. It's so fantastically retro.

Drive-ins were a huge part of my childhood, so I had to have my little girl experience it. She brings her friend and they wear their jammies, bring a frisbee or a ball and a flashlight. She loves it too.

The smells and sounds of a drive-in are so wonderful. A mixture of bug spray, popcorn, exhaust fumes and the always too bassy rumblings of the film's sound coming from all of the cars.

They still play the 1970's previews and concession stand commercials.

during the summer we've been going often! it's great for snuggling with the boys in the back of the station wagon (we park it backwards and bring all our pillows and quilts)

That's the way to do it. Such a blast. The kids just go wild.

they have a playground just under the screen, the kids can go wear themselves out before it gets dark and the movie starts

I've never been to a Drive-In... they're not really part of the culture in the UK. Plus, I can't drive.

I wanna go!!!

>fortunately I got to bring your memoirs for here; it was right shot! and I am happy for that.
>for me I don't associate Drive-in to a way of seeing movies in family... it 's a adults' thing;I never watched a film with classification for children; and Drive-in is,for me, a pause height in the routine of the house, for the intrinsic way " movies out of house" Anyway, it 's a possibility, nowadays with the children's habit (they lie down late) and they always walk agglutinated to the parents... signs of the times.
>or my fascination for the drive-in is also a sign of the will that I have in forgetting the house, the things of the obligations and dream with other life without Real, pure pleasure in enjoying an adolescence spirit again

ZombieKitten said:

hello Zombie
I missed you this week
no, no.... for me this time no
Drive-in doesn't include children;is part of my imaginary of adult; erotic dreams with cars and hot and cold blankets, yes, but without children ahahh.... he doesn't also include children.... but he walks there close!

One of the first things folks around here did when then they got their driver's license was go to a drive-in with their date - and not watch the movie. Now that drive-ins are almost extinct, I think that the culture has changed and become more of a nostalgia trip. Property values (and taxes) soared in the 1980's and theater owners couldn't afford to not sell. Very sad for us that grew up with them.

squirrelgrease said:

it 's sad that it has been sold; and now what happens in that space? just the ghosts of the past? don't financial bottoms exist for rebuilding? the neighborhood associations exist or don't they have the force (eventually existent in Europe) to defend the colective memoirs of the place?

then to the memory of your place
homage




[Edited 8/1/09 18:44pm]

homage to the American culture, in me, forgotten by the American machine of the profit : LIVE DRIVE-IN!!!

'Dream horizon'... I love that phrase.

I'm glad you got to achieve it - it sounds like you had fun.

ingamilo said:

in a few years I will also be ready to have sexytime in the drive in!
champagne, chocolate etc

ZombieKitten said:

YES!!!

>dream and we continued like this :new and beautiful.
not lose the horizon of the dream: the Utopia is foundation of the life, above all when we were closed in a marriage, in the house,...

>the children grow and later we returned to our adolescence; with me it went like this and it will be with whom believes: it can be even just in one night in Drive-in, one day

> with me it went like this and it will be with whom believes: it can be even just in one night in Drive-in, one day
the drive-in is a reference place for all of the desires that were occult in the diapers, fixed in the loiça, in the freezer,
in Drive-in it is dark, it can appear Brad Pitt, Marlin Moroe, the neighbor, just a stranger that offers us a sweet cotton or a hot chocolate, a stranger that he offers us a beer, asks for fire to light his cigarette, or alone, we dreamed how it would be good we be 18 years old again

>I like you a lot Zombie . Believes and dreams for besides the walls!

hear hear!!!
keep it alive I couldn't agree more
