Drive-In Intermission Mix

[monkeeman1966]

With all of these 50s and 60s Intermissions shorts, they sure used cool music for them.

[SuperFlashDriver]

The robot Arthur. If it was still around, It would've been upgraded with computer chips and Rf technology.

[Jcolinsol]

I want a delooshus hot doggy.

[DustyDingies]

I remember going to the drive in with my family and friends in the mid 60s.Even as cheap as it was,we always snuck a few of us kids through in the trunk.Someone else mentioned the fact that the kids wore P.J.s which I forgot about.There was always two movies and cartoons etc and the show would run late so we had blankets and pillows all ready to go.All that entertainment for a few bucks.Great memories.

[fredstmoritz]

great times i relive them every may - oct here in good ol PA we have lots of drive in's on rt. 11 wow we love them

[monkeeman1966]

@fredstmoritz I have driven by the Garden Drive-In in Hunlock Creek while they were showing a movie!  The Moon(Port) Drive-In is still open on US rte 220 west of Williamsport!

[GoblinXXX]

V-8 with CHEERIO??? Gag!

[MDProdTV]

Must buy pop-corn and other bogus "freshly cooked' snacks from "The Lobby"...Hmmm rendered pig carcases...Hot Dog!!

[GoblinXXX]

@MDProdTV Hot dogs, cooked on a torture rack!  Can't be beat!

[RQVOutdoorMoovies]

The drive in theater experience is enhanced by the showing of these classic intermission clips. I recently attended a showing at the Lakeland, FL SILVER MOON. They even showed classic clips before the movioe began! Thanks for posting , always fun to watch. Persnally, I'd rather miss a part of the movie than one of these gems.

[dbrew2u]

Damn, those were the Days. I never thought that i would be using them. But here i am. In this Modern Day Hustle and Bustle, it sure would be nice to take the Family out on a Gorgeous Bug Ridden,Steaming Summer Night to the Drive-In. Fifty Cents or a $1.50 a Car Load. For those that still have em ? God Bless Ya !

[pinkstrawberrypuding]

oh! the Movie the Day the Earth Stood Still is one of my favorite movies ever!

[mardeninthegarden]

0:30 - Sounds like he's making out with that ice cream.

[ElectricGuitarManPL]

2:50

Hahah Matrix is not the first production with bullet time :)

[robertwmartens]

Daw Butler did the voice of the cartoon scientist. I wonder what happened to that young genius Kurt Golden. How much longer before smoking in cars gets banned???

[Quasimodo1957]

Sitting in your pajamas in the back seat of the car with blankets and pillows while Mom and Dad sat up front watching the movie.

Boy...what memories. Thanks!

[texasghost]

What kid back in those days drank V-8? 

[1L6E6VHF]

Thanks for these.

The Drive-In I used to go to when on vacation had an intermission ad just like the first film here, same announcer, obviously the same source, only the refreshments were on a "mountain" instead of a "machine", any chance of finding that? It would bring back memories.

[MrRazerwire]

SHITZ

[yaywhewclips242]

Ahhh.. the drive in (we had one in Webster, NY-STARLIGHT). Does anyone remember that short film from the 1960's of a family going through a car wash in a convertable? STARLIGHT closed in maybe 1979 to make room for the crappy LOWES mutiplex in 1982. TDTESS- a classic, perhaps one of the best SF 1950's movies, the music itself was terrific. Please ignore the remake w/ the soulless K. Reeves.

[Link3618andLiquid]

i love how they portray germans

[nrdesign1991]

i bet some kids jumped from buildings, hoping that yelling "ZOTZ!" will save them.

[Beckala67]

2:53 - the original Matrix!!!! LAter to be copied by Superman Returns.

[tippymugs]

when i worked at a drive in, in the 1970s, we ran "night of the leepus" one night and this colored boy i worked with thought those leepuses were going to jump off the screen!--lol--

[C4nUH34rM3G0d]

I miss the way popcorn used to taste. It tastes like cardboard now at the movie theaters. I'm not even fond of microwave popcorn. Popcorn started to taste bad about 1990.

[IanGorton]

@C4nUH34rM3G0d Yeah I find cinema popcorn too salty for my liking.

[cdrw62]

Great stuff - thanks for posting. When do we get to see more?

[frankd1965]

6:14 to 6:35 Drew Pearson was the columnist for "The Washington Merry Go Round.

"The Day The Earth Stood Still" has Oscar winner Patricia Neal, Michael Rennie and Francis Bavier who was Aunt Bea on "The Andy Griffith Show".

[DukeFilmsInc]

I made my friend mad the other day and he kicked me in the Zotz, I had a similar look on my face as the guy at 1:39

[Easydollars]

I loved the drive ins. A great era now Gone. Great for dating.

[Gearaholics]

I used to go to the drive in but now it's an Office Max, the fucks!

[damienrecords]

Thanks for posting. I remember some of them. When I was little, my folks took us a couple of times ... in our pajamas. Cool!

[MrUnidyne]

My parents could never understand why these were my favorite part of the Drive-In program.

[highjinxwillie62]

what i loved the most at the drive ins was the woody wood pecker cartoons

[mimi911roxs]

i went to a drive in da other day it was so cool i would go there every night if i could but itz 2 hours away. they even showed all of these intermission commercials.

[TheMikester307]

"Day the Earth Stood still" and "Zotz!" Loved them both! (And both based on published stories/books! Worth tracking down!

[106732]

Two of my favorite sci-fi comedies from those days both have improbable names, "Zotz" with Tom Poston & "The Twonky" with Hans Conreid. Both worth seeing.

[melbrooksjew]

ZotZ is a candy with a fizzy, sour center. At first, it looks and tastes like a regular hard candy. But if it is bit into or a hole is opened, sour fizz comes out. Zotz flavors include apple, cherry, watermelon, lemon, grape, and orange. This was a candy that was eaten in the 60's. While not available at most candy stores, it is often available online.

[melbrooksjew]

At 0: 31 I wonder what happend after he let down the curtain? SEX WITH ICE CREAM HAHAHA!!!!

[driveinnut61]

I used to run the scientist on my old Public Access show once in a while. The Goodies Machines have all left my area, sadly.

[dudemantwo]

Very corny

[SteveCarras]

The good old Capitol Music Library, hard at service;Phil Green's Comedy Walker, much used in Hanna-Barbera's :Quick Draw", and in Don Fedderson;s "My 3 sons'< to name a few, plays in the elf scne. Real cool...as a stock music buff, and 60s kid..I might even VAGBUELY recall these..we started goin'; more to theatres by later 60s..

[SteveCarras]

Tat guy looks like the Prof,iN Felix the Cast and Mr,.Whoopee in Tennesee Tux.

[MAPSfounder]

OMG Thanks for posting. I just turned 51 and I remember all of this. Going to the drive-ins(we had 5 within a 10 mile radius) with my dad will always be my fondest memories. Those hotdogs and burgers the the foil lined bags and the crinkle-cut fries in the square cardboard cups with the wooden two-pronged forks ... ahhhhhhh! Bliss! It sucks that this is gone forever.

[ericinwisconsin]

Very true, MAPSfounder. Today's trash is tomorrow's treasure, and kids today would be wise to remember that.

[MAPSfounder]

Thanks for the comment, but I wouldn't even classify that Americana lifestyle we had experienced as "trash." The VCR destroyed the Drive-in. Of course, the "trash" exists now (well, starting in the late 80's anyway)and I see no treasure in that, even in the future. There's no longer simple and innocent pleasures.

[ericinwisconsin]

Sorry if I was unclear. I didn't mean to imply that this is trash, only that it was considered "throw away" culture at the time and as such was not saved or treasured until much later. Kind of like Johnny Carson's early "Tonight Show" episodes, which were thrown away by NBC because they saw no value in keeping them.

[garbagelasagna]

So the Matrix totally ripped off Zotz! bullet scene.

[guaditarios]

Zotz!

[Calvin5040]

The Zotz guy is Tom Poston. Loony It's French LOL!

[thejmfry]

I wish I could experience a drive-in...

[HELLBOYNP]

They were showing this last night at the drivin

[jenflights]

wow....i wish drive ins were popular today....seemed like they were not only movies but a night of entertainment.....yummmm.... ice cream and hot doggies :) :) LOL....thanks so much :) :)

[Pookatube]

Wait..Isn't that Colonel Sanders with a German Accent?

[Ian16545]

Cheerios and V-8?!? Sheesh! YEEE-UCKKKK!

[steffidude]

We go to our local drive in at least every two weeks and with 2 movies. I talked with the owner last night and this may be the last season for our drive in. Will sure miss this summer time fun. Kids will also. Owners want to retire.

[mcdonchris]

Yeah it's a sad state of affairs when the kids in this day and time and in the future won't be able to find the fun in loading up in the car and going to the drive in with the family...back in the day we even took the dog...lol But i really miss the old drive ins...but i guess it's a different day and time though.

[randallcaster]

I still don't get how they watched tv back then without remotes.

[Ratt1959]

That's what kids were for. lol

[dirtchew]

Zotz! - with the original bullet-time

[rolad]

Whoa!

[smurfblood]

"Cooks them until they're just right" and then cooks and cooks them well beyond that.

[Dogzrule25]

a new demenstration of my new inwentien!!! he put a w lol! man i wish they still played them but tomorrow im gonna ask them!

[melaniestevens]

i could watch these over and over

[DarkFactOmega]

"De Goodies Machine!" XD

Nice collection of drive-in ads.

[TroyOi]

Loved it! Thanks for doing this.

That Moon Rocket Kit, though, kinda cracked me up. Rather than a moon landing, it was a bit more reminiscent of the Challenger & Columbia Space Shuttle disasters. (OK, OK, I know I shouldn't laugh... Sorry!)

[zimmy2525]

Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

I remember my mother in summer taking

us every week. Usually 2 movies per nite.

[denny906]

I loved every minute of this nostalgic into the movies past. I was a kid back then. That Cheerios moon rocket kit is such a crack-up today thinking how sophisticated toys are today.

[hwcdesign]

Hot Doggies!

[stupidjones7575]

ok, so the point of the game was to have a space accident, and land the bodies on the moon? i don't get it....

[Adria20]

ZOTS!!!!

[BeeRich33]

Cheerios & vegetable puree for breakfast. Kids were all over that.

[jpowell180]

Mmmmm...Cheerios w/V-8...were they supposed to use the V-8 instead of milk?

Betcha Vegans would try that ;)

[junkboxxxxxxxx]

Dat ZOTS be seriously **ILL** muthfucka

[lucky7monkey]

lmfao

[jttoad]

Gay? Really?

[pepsiwoman1]

How can I get a copy of this? (non internet)

[mutobare]

howdy, if you are an ebay member, a company called SOMETHING WEIRD has piles of this material on disc sets. new and used.

[pepsiwoman1]

Thank you very much.  I found just what I needed on their website. :)

[MightySaturn5]

looks like 63-64

[leeroynaggins]

These drive in intermissions are GREAT! Thanks so much!

[lowerthedynamite]

hey, awesome stuff!!

[deedeebree1]

I was the only one who stayed in the car during intermission!! Ummm hot doooogies!

[laur3mcd]

This has some terrific stuff that brings back a lot of memories! Great quality too! Keep up the good work!

[jttoad]

Thank you kindly!

[PeppeRaskell1]

The Professor sounds like he's having a good time with those goodies behind the "Intermission" curtain, isn't he?

[SundownerDrifting]

Heh, out local drive had this intermission intro, but I guess it broke, so we only got the "INTERMISSION" card, WITH SOUND. So whenever intermission started, you'd see that card and hear "MMMMMmmmmneumnumnumnuh!" That "5 minutes to go" clip looks familiar, too.
