    My parents had us kids all wearing our pajamas to the drive-in way back in the day. It was fun! You can talk and laugh with each other without bothering people sitting close to you!

      My uncle would send me over to the food stand with his five sons so that he could see at least a little of the movie without them arguing and creating other distractions in the back of the car. And I do remember everybody going in jammies!

      My parents would always sneak us in

      Eastwood Unforgiven Knew kids whose neighborhood backed up on the Drive In. There was a hole in the fence they always snuck thru 😀

      I just saw a movie in a drive in last night for the first time in 25 years and it was cool to do something fun again.

      It's kind of ironic. Drive in movie cinemas, which was considered dated, is now back thanks to Covid-19. The same with audio dramas (fiction podcasts, or you might say a succesor of old school radio dramas) Since movies and television series have halted somewhat, audio dramas have now caught the public's attention.

    Yea, drive-in's are a good thing!

    It's a great solution to going to the movies and getting out during coronavirus. When i was a kid in the 80's going to the drive in was fun a thing to do with your family.

  • @Nullzeros
    @Nullzeros 4 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    I hope these make a comeback, missed going to the drive in as a kid. It’s hard to find these places now, it’s not like when I was younger.

    Hopefully this drive in thing will keep on going for many years to come. Loved the drive in back forty years ago. They were strong back in the 70s . and now there a Blessing to have for this time of life we have in these days. They should hold a classic car show in the parking lot. Make my day. Lol

      What did you do at the Drive In when you were 20? Sleep? I remember making love in the back seat (windows covered) with my late wife when i was about 23 lol. It's normal.

    Every country should do this. So movies can get back to normal and make money again.

    Normal movie theaters are so overrated. Drive-ins are great. You get to have your own personal area and you get to bring your own things to get comfortable.

    all you need is an old 50's movies and an old car from the 40's or 50's 60's.
    Back then it was new to kids and now its new to the new kids.
    also the old style of watching these movies was you sit in your car and have the speaker in your car. plus convertibles were big back then so it was better for drive ins the convertible cars

    The man in the video is lying. He doesn't know 2 people who died. Most people can't even name someone who has it much less died from it, and yet he knows two people who died? Total BS.
