Wall E
 
Jim and I went to the drive-in last night and saw Wall E - what a great movie!! I really recommend it for children and adults alike! The first 20 minutes has very little dialogue, but I thought it was the best part of the movie.

The drive-in was a lot of fun, we parked in the last row and faced the back of the car to the screen and lifted the hatch. We put a bunch of pillows and snuggled up to watch the movies - the dogs enjoyed it also.
My brother and his wife came along also in their car, we had a picnic while we waited for the movies to start.

I miss drive in movies! NJ was the home of the first ever drive in and now we don't have any! I can remember as a kid my OS would take us with her husband, in their station wagon. We go in our pj's and always fall asleep in the back of the car before the movies were over!

Megan just told me today she is dying to see Wall E. I guess we'll have to go soon.

It looks really cute. I think we will have to see this one!!!

Awww, I miss drive-in's, too. They are a thing of the past here. Really want to see Wall-E, though. Will have to get hubby to go or go by myself. Maybe I'll find a friend to go with me if hubby isn't up for it.

It looks really cute. It's at our drive-in right now, but it doesn't get dark here now until 10:00 so I don't know if I could stay awake that long. We usually wait till they come out on video/CD.

We do too. The nearest movie theater is 30 miles away now so it's not too convienient to go to the movies.

My daughter and her hubby took Joey to see it, and he loved it.

We saw it opening weekend; it had some cute moments; but it's probably not a buyer.

Believe it or not I've never been to a drive in. We have one not too far from us; but i've never been. I tend to go to bed early so waiting for a movie to start at 10 doesn't work for me.

You should go at least once! There's nothing like a drive-in movie!!!!

Awww the drive ins miss those days, we use to sneak people in the trucks so they didn't have to pay....:rolleyes: fun times....
and yes Wall E looks really cute. wait till it comes on dvd and buy it for Micah i think he's too young to go to the movies right now....

DianaB 07-21-2008 10:44 AM

I'm going to have to look and see what Wall-E is about because I haven't heard about it. I finally watched The Bucket List. It was great! My husband and I both loved it!

I forgot about this thread. Megan and I went to see Wall E....absolutely HATED it! We left after about an hour. It was cute for the first half hour, then it just got old. And I could not stand the way the people looked. I know that was the point, but yuck! It grossed me out. I've only walked out on 3 movies in my life and Megan was with me every time! They were the animated King and I, Benjie (the last one) and Wall E.

We stayed through the whole thing, but i agree with you. It was a little too much be careful or else....i guess for children it had a good message about taking care of the planet & what not. But after the first 30 minutes the propiganda got a little old.

Dobie sounds like you all had fun . I have never been to a drive in, growing up in the city there were none. There was one by me in NJ but they closed many years ago. So thats the end of an era around here. :(


Glad that you enjoyed the movie, I hope to go see it to. I want to see Mama Mia first next Friday, I did see the play it was excellent. The movie looks good to , has anyone seen it?

teri88 07-21-2008 03:30 PM

I want to see mama Mia too! I have seen the show on broadway twice and I loved it! The movie is getting great reviews!
