We go to drive-ins' now and it's wonderful!!! They are all quite a drive from home - but it's so nice to sit outside & watch a movie...and with the drive-ins, you get TWO movies for 7 bucks per person...and the food is soooo good. Popcorn with REAL butter - who knew that still existed?!?!

Last double feature we saw was Harry Potter & Die Harder...

We go to about 4 faithfully. There's two in NY, one in Middletown, if you know the Woodbury Commons outlets - it's about 30 minutes past there. They have 2 screens. Fair Oaks Drive In.

We also used to go to one in Warwick, NY, but the bathroom is like peeing in a hole, totally not good for me and my TINY bladder, but they have 3 screens and will show R movies.. http://webusers.warwick.net/~u1006131/driveinmovie/

The other 3 are in PA...from our house - the farthest one away is an hour, 30...

This one is our FAVORITE - they are wonderful & once a year, on Labor Day Weekend - they do movies from dusk till dawn... I can't say how wonderful they are - they just ARE. They do pony rides for the kids, have a swingset, if the movie is theme oriented, they'll dress up that way. For the Shrek 3 movie, they had a DONKEY that the kids could ride...it was the cutest thing EVER... www.beckysdi.com.

Another in PA - family movies ONLY...every once in a while - they'll show a PG-13 movie...but VERY family oriented - one screen... http://www.shankweilers.com/

Third - Mahoning - farthest away - biggest screen on the East Coast...
