Our drive-in doesn't sell popcorn for 20.00. You get a large tub for 3.99, plus you get a free refill. We only use the premium "mushroom" kernels, & pop them in coconut oil. I also clarify, local Amish butter, to top your popcorn with if you choose. We alway have .99 cent hot dogs. They are made fresh, locally at Thompson's, in Jersey Shore, PA. We also make our own pizza dough, daily. People actually come to the Moon Drive-In to eat dinner, move than see a double feature. Thanks, Crazy Bob.
I remember checking this while in the snack line, trying to hurry & get back to the vehicle B4 showtime. The younger generation doesn't understand how drive-ins weren't just a movie, but an experience & a family event. What I ask, could be better than being out under the stars, laying in the back of a pick-up truck, with your siblings, snuggled up in blankets, munching pop corn, waiting for it to get dark/show to star? Some drive-ins even had swing-sets & such for kids. Early arrival was fun!
@gjc82071 I agree and that is why I've recreated the classic drive in experience with classic 16mm and 35mm films projected from real theater projectors to a really giant screen in a private outdoor setting under the stars. I give free popcorn from a theater popcorn popper and sometimes offer drinks and bbq.
We have real drive in speakers on stands that work but use a real sound system that rivals theaters. Still, I get asked why I do it instead of a dvd! If you have to ask you don't get it.
@PaladinMC8 Hey, what do you have, 1 of those cool giant, home, inflatable screens I've seen? About the why not DVD comment, I get your point, although out of convenience, I am nowhere near the purist you seem to be. But I do like to splice retro commercials into era appropriate movies, for a more authentic experience. MY thing is classic gaming (Atari). Although I do have 16 real vintage/classic consoles, again, convince, I use emulators. I at least use an authentic Atari Joystick/USB.
@gjc82071 No, I have a giant wood screen mounted on pressure treated 4x4's cemented into the ground.
I may end up using a digital projector for some movies that I can only get on dvd or even vhs because the films are unavailable.
I also have classic video arcade machines in a garage arcade. Pacman, Asteroids, Qbert, Donkey Kong etc. I used to have a jukebox in there too but had to sell it.. That's cool that you play those old Atari games. I have an old console\games around here somewhere.
The drive-in by our house still use this counting down before the trailers and movie starts, and the popcorn isn't nearly as expensive as it is in the theater.
Think of having a huge screen in your driveway and then either sit in your car or mini van or SUV and watch the movie. Cool thing is you can bring your lawn chair or whatever and even sit outside the the vehicle. They use the stereo in your vehicle to hear the movie, so if you have a killer system, score. It's just nothing like you ever experience going inside a theater. Oh and movie snack are expensive because the theater gets such a small percentage of movie profits, they have to recoop.
that actually sounds great, its too bad that we don't have much in the way of drive ins anymore. speaking of stereo, i miss the thx and sony dynamic digital sound trailers, why do movie theaters not have digital sound trailers? i don't care if it is loud, it was awesome when they had it. but anyways thanks for emailing me.
@megaben99 Well, who knows, maybe if they find a way to make supersized LCD screens that can sit outside in the elements inexpensively, it could come back. Not in the way it used to, but it could in some small way. Maybe it's best to not have it be a big boom, hate to see it oversatuated.
@yourfreebieguide Wouldn't it be cool I'd LOVE to see them again! And yes, this is the very one featured in "Grease"! When Danny is singing "Oh, Sandy".
Well apparently they had ice cream at one time. I remember I got a hot dog at our local Cinemark once.. it was like at least 3.00 and it was just a normal little hotdog. Rip off.
"The show starts in __ minutes. Go to the concession stand and purchase our large popcorn for $20.00! " <--NOW THERE'S SOME TRUTH! HAHA!
These bumpers were supposed to be timed to the "ads" inbetween them, "suggesting" everything that came from the refreshment stand, to spots for local businesses, "public service announcements", tips on watching the movie a bit better (and safer), and a few other surprises....
