I swear half the colors used in those ads don't exist any more. _(Edit: Since people keep missing the point, I only mean that those are colors not fashionable to use these days and are rarely seen, let alone all together.)_

Mrs. Cleaver: Now, Ward, you've been a little hard on the Beaver lately. Mr. Cleaver: Well, golly, June, seems like it was deserved ! And, by gosh if the Cleavers didn't name the kid Beaver. Beaver Cleaver. The scriptwriters in Hollywood sure were having a blast. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. And America just ate it up.
we went to a drive-in a few weeks ago and they still play commercials like these:P They even play old 50s music before the movies start. Its pretty neat. Kind of like traveling back in time :) Im only 25 but i still think its cool seeing old stuff that been around long before i was born.
that sounds so amazing!!! which drive in is it? sadly the closet one to me is an hour and a half drive -_- but hey nothin' says drive in like a good old fashioned blanket and projector in your own backyard ^-^
***** I bet there's a list onlline. I bet there's still the Starlight in Atlanta. There's still the Wilderness drive-in near Chattanooga (Chattanoo'ga). Tell everyone you know that just because people pronounce it incorrectly, there's no need to repeat the mistake.
There's a drive in theatre a few minutes from me that's been there forever and hasn't changed, it still plays the second one with the dancing snacks before every movie
Maybe you've experienced this in a recent previus lifetime ... or maybe you were so young when your parents took you to a drive-in that you very very barely remember.
I worked at the Starlight Drive-in when I was 18 in the summer of 1974. I remember these commercials very well. I made a lot of pizzas and hot dogs back in the day!!
These are THE BEST to watch when dining. If I get late night fast food I absolutely come home and tune in one of these on CZcams and just munch and enjoy the vintage graphics. Truly a blast!
We need bring back drive in movie theaters if they ever close one just restore them let people come enjoy 50's 60's and 70's and 80's movies also 90's movies.
My 6 year old son wants me to comment "WOW, this video is awesome". He really enjoyed learning more about drive ins and watching the concession stand commercials. I personally miss these good old days. We need to bring drive ins back!!!
Yes Lea but, bringing back the WHOLE of Fifties life and living, might be a not-too-terrible idea. (After then, it was the beginning of 'downhill' to now, whatever one might like to call it. I lived it all and paid attention, and so I can be as witness to the truth of this. The post-WWII years were uphill to the peak. Now ALL is but high anxiety and worries never-ever-ending. Now, excepting for the very wealthy, all are 'equal' in misery. Is it a success and WORTH the very steep price paid? Jury's coming in soon . . .)
It's been edited! At our drive theatre at 0.31 the bun used to open up and invite the weiner to jump in (seriously). After a few coy refusals, the weiner gives in and hops inside. We used to think this was quite perverse (late-70s)
For those too young to know the 60's and 70's, it was like this. War raged on in Vietnam. Network nightly news broadcasts (there was no Fox or CNN yet) often displayed body counts for the day. Usually with deep jungle footage. Beyond that, mid 20th century was a great era! Drive-in theaters were everywhere, usually only had one screen with two films. The intermission film shown here was everywhere and popular. People dashed to the concession stand - it was your last chance to get a drink and food. When the second film started, they closed the stand. You stood in a line with 10 or so people in front of you hoping to get back to your car before the lights were turned off! When my wife and I were first together, we had very little money for even the drive-in. One night I got the idea to smuggle her in using the trunk of the car. I had her get in there down the road from the drive-in. No sooner had I parked in a great spot and was reaching for the window speaker and she began to get out. A man pulled up and asked "are you going to pay for the girl getting out of the trunk of your car?" I said, sure, and gave him the money. Had no money for popcorn that night! I miss that era. Life was so simple and easy. Screw computers, cell phones, facebook (which I still refuse to join) and all of it. No subliminal audio or video like you have rampant today. You could go where you want and do what you wanted. Almost no nazi-cops on a power trip to hassle you (except in parts of the deep south.) Overall, LIFE WAS GOOD.
Man this brings me back to a better time in life. I remember when my mom and my dad me and my sister the go to the drive-ins when me and my sister were very young. Then when I was old enough to date we went to the drive-ins. There still a drive-in theater in Lakeland Florida call the Silver Moon. I went there in my forties hand in my twenties. I'm 68 now and it's still there showing movies. What were those were the days.
Back then they would play two movies and between the movies be the intermission. That was back when everyone wasn't trying to overload their schedule and life moved slower so you could enjoy things more.
@@TimmyTheTinman Tell me about it. Back than people took things slowly and actually enjoyed life. Nowadays everyone is in such damn hurry and in a less than stellar moods.
You haven't read a 60s cookbook, huh? Look up James Iileks. You'll see some horrific photography. He wrote Interior Desecrations about decor in the 70s. Too.
I just love that this is all with animations. Nowadays people just make everything big, shiny, and not at all like in real life. Snack ads today: photo shooting of some unrealistic food and allways unbarebly overactive voice and music to it. Snacks then: A fricking animation with delightfully calming music and the voice is talking to the animation, making it look like a small movie. It's frickin enjoyable. Not like today. Nobody is going to upload a "2020 advertisements" video. and today you're never gonna know when the show starts. Now I want to go to a drive-in-theatre :'(

+Sergio Jurado its like it was polar opposite in that way different stuff they took for granted, others were hardships we dont have now? well, then again. it was a turning point of history too big time
+tedtw Maybe you should have stayed home and watched t.v., and popped your own popcorn, and heated your own hotdogs, or even made your own Chef Boyardee pizza. And would have had a clear conscience.
+Margie Carol Perhaps - but hold the hotdogs (they give me indigestion) and Boyardee Pizza (which will make you drink like a parched dog.)It WAS a better time. Others here feel as I do. Today's kids have totally lost touch with reality. They walk around staring at their phones playing with them. Purely pathetic generation with zero self control. What kind of a life is that? Obsessed about Facebook, Twitter and the like? THAT is pathetic. Many are headed for carpal tunnel surgery when they get older from over-use of the their thumbs at a awkward angle.I'm damn glad no phone runs my life; I don't even carry one around.
@@kyouhate9453 I forgot about this! The movie was Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom. About halfway through the car battery died, so I was at the mercy of the other cars. It was cold. We needed a guy to jumpstart the car. It wasn't ideal.
Same in Lancaster Ohio(Skyview Drive-In), or at least for the dancing food. EDIT: Yeah, just saw it after Sonic the Hedgehog. EDIT 2: I think South Drive-In in Columbus Ohio also uses that intermission too, I'll see if they do when I see Detective Pikachu on Sunday.
Faux Nostalgia (/fō/ /näˈstaljə/; Adj, Noun) 1. Being nostalgic for something before your time 2. Replicating a part of the past in order to relive it, Or to experience a time before . your own.
This is so nostalgic to me. I'm only 12 but I love old stuff. In San Antonio, Texas there's this drive in theater called the Stars And Strips theater and they play these ads before every movie so its really nostalgic and familiar to me. Everytime I watch these ads I think of simpler times before everything where my family would go to the drive in to see the latest movies. These ads give me peace I wouldn't imagine having, it relaxes me and makes me think in a good way.
This is what I loved about going to the drive-in. Those cute little intermission ads. Man I miss those days. Today's generation doesn't know what they missed!
The "Let's all go to the lobby" one (might not have been drive-in but apparently it's from the 50s) was actually shown in our theaters but was edited so that after the refreshments stopped singing and you heard "Cut!" (as if they were filming it) they would talk on their cell phones and the Geico Gecko would come and tell them to stop talking because the "audience" (us) could hear them. It was pretty great, actually. It also had that authentic 50s/60s tune to it as if it were the original.
I've never been to a drive in but I've always wanted to because this is so relaxing and gives a good vibe and energy and I love old times. I'm only 14 and I miss the old times and I love it and I much prefer these times other than current 2020. The colors were so amazing and I just want to live back then
I can't believe I actually remember those drive-in commercials! LOL I loved going to the drive-in when I was a kid. It was so exciting piling into the car in our pjamas and carrying our pillows.
I miss drive-in's! I live near Milwaukee, WI and I remember going to the Starlite Drive-in as a kid. It was always fun going with my sister to the cossesion stand to get pop corn, hot dogs and other treats! Those were really special times! Thanks for posting this video!
This brings back so many memories from being a kid and going to the drive in almost every weekend. Hope drive ins stay relevant so we can bring our kid to them
We had a truck-and-camper with the bed over the cab and the big window in the front. All of us kids would lie down up there and watch the show while mom and dad stayed in the cab!
Omg the first snacks one! My local drive has the reel for that and they play it every night! Of all the things I was expecting to find on CZcams, this was not it, but it is a pleasant surprise!
AWESOME. :) What would REALLY scare you is if you fell asleep during a movie that you went to by yourself, and woke up to a dark theater, with a giant grinning clown on the screen right in front of you! (Or some shadowy figures in the corner of the theater...)
it was after the newer Xmen i woke up to that yeah that would be creepy to anyone who is going alone to a drive in dont go alone and falling asleep espeically if its in the back of the truck because there might be some rapists looking for female/male ready to pounce if your tired i would say to drive home if its a double feature
Thunder Daze Its true that when you are tired (ESP. very tired) you are far more vulnerable to attack (or falling asleep at the wheel on the way home). In other words, going to a late late movie is only a good idea if you're going with someone else/a group, and its a safe area. As in, no long walks in the dark to the car at night. (Unless, again, the area is fairly safe, and you are not too tired, and you're with other people, etc. I, myself, prefer the quiet company of a certain young woman I'm more interested in in the evening, away from noise, etc., but those long walks should be in safer areas...) I've never had any bad experiences at night like that, myself. And there is a side to modern life involving this, and similar subjects, that I have always felt was not the way things should be (two people on a date shouldn't HAVE to worry about their own safety as much, there are so many things that are attacking traditional, healthy relationships these days, that we don't need more lunacy like this...).
BenjaminGessel Take a self defense course Bro! and protect the ones' you love! - ALWAYS! There was an incident in my town; a dude washing his truck at night was robbed then shot. The Fucking "Low Life" stole his truck and took his money. Be Safe and Aware - ALWAYS! Oh' the dude that was shot, survived!
Someone asked in an earlier comment if there are still any drive-ins around. We have one here in Lancaster, Oh. (30 miles south of Columbus, the state capitol) called the Sky View Drive-In and it was built in 1948.
Bengie's Drive-in in MIddle River, MD -- just east of Baltimore -- has been working since 1956; I also know of a rare double-screen theater, the Route 11 Drive-in, at the head of the Shenandoah Valley near Winchester, VA.
I just saw these LAST NIGHT at a Drive-In in Milford, NH. It was a double feature: Raiders of the Lost Ark and Temple Of Doom. I love these commercials!
Our "local" (about an hour away) Drive-In still plays the first one between movies when they do a double-feature. I've been going up there for about 25 years....and hearing some of these brings back very...errr...distinct...memories of a crazy chick I knew that used to go up there with me. Amazing what you can do in a '99 Cavalier.
I saw Jaws at the drive-in when it came out, and I've never gone swimming int he ocean since! There is a drive-in not to far from where I live, and we would go during the summer when my kids were little.
I swear half the colors used in those ads don't exist any more.
_(Edit: Since people keep missing the point, I only mean that those are colors not fashionable to use these days and are rarely seen, let alone all together.)_
What colors?
They exist--just not in films and television! That's one reason why I like older films.
John Michaelson yeah they do
yeah technicolor looked great, big movies now have a more dull color pallet
The muted type tones they use. More natural now it's so bright
The way the talk in the ads is so satisfying
2 years later it's called atlantic dialect .
ROAMFOAM I see you haha, different account, same person.

Come back

you got it bro
They say COVID-19 is bringing back drive in movies, we need these segments back if that happens.
Yeah until its negative temps again lol at least here in MN
The drive inns near me play this still
Ya I just went to drive it's been more than 20 years way better than theater
We also need to bring back decent movies from yesteryear that had good, clean morals. Just the way it were in the good ole days.
Yes, everyone needs to spend 35.00 to see Ferris Bueller again, lol
I think this is the first time I've ever heard the phrase "delightfully mild".
At least it’s the first time I’ve heard it applied to something other than cigarettes!

+girlstorm09 I haven't been to it, mind you, but there is Wilderness Drive-In near here. They had to remodel and spend lots of money for digital age.
that sounds so amazing!!! which drive in is it? sadly the closet one to me is an hour and a half drive -_- but hey nothin' says drive in like a good old fashioned blanket and projector in your own backyard ^-^
it was some drive in near Plymouth Indiana. I dont remember the name though.
***** I bet there's a list onlline. I bet there's still the Starlight in Atlanta. There's still the Wilderness drive-in near Chattanooga (Chattanoo'ga). Tell everyone you know that just because people pronounce it incorrectly, there's no need to repeat the mistake.
girlstorm09 triway theater, I live like 30 min away
I remember back in the 60's, there was a playground at the front of the drive-in, below the theater screen...kids played until the movie started....
The mustang drive in has one but it is only on screen 1
I miss those days badly. Three movies while chowing down on junk food.
I remember loud applause from the audience when the hot dog jumps into the open bun!!
Because they were all doing that in the back of the car

@@dianaadhikari45 Now it's just WAP, Cardi B and seeing how many blacks and other minorities Pepsi can throw into it's cringe fest
That was the fastest 7 mins i’ve ever experienced. Ads were so much more playful back then. This is why I like retro stuff.
Hey your not alone 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊👍
I loved these corny commercials. They were still playing at the drive-in when I was a kid in the '80s.
I know one drive in Buffalo New York that still play some of these commercials.
The hamburgers look like brillo pads and get a castle puke sandwich 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
There's a drive in theatre a few minutes from me that's been there forever and hasn't changed, it still plays the second one with the dancing snacks before every movie
I want to move where you are.😺
why am i somehow nostalgic to this
im not even 18

Maybe you've experienced this in a recent previus lifetime ... or maybe you were so young when your parents took you to a drive-in that you very very barely remember.
Same
Maybe you watched CZcams poops when you were younger and saw a CZcams poop of this
Maybe you saw it at the drive-in in the movie Grease.
Anyone else love these types of audios idk why but it reminds me of fallout and I just love listening to old music like this
Legalised Panda it reminds me of Bioshock
What’s it called?
Yes there is something special about it and it seems to mostly be lost today.
I worked at the Starlight Drive-in when I was 18 in the summer of 1974. I remember these commercials very well. I made a lot of pizzas and hot dogs back in the day!!
omg they actually had an ad that says no banging in the theatre XD
looly
+Niceguy3210 Where?
I was more amused by the church advertisement...
Who knew "nuff said?" was so old a phrase?
lol when I thought. I heard everything now I have
Man we need to have these again, imagine the summers.
I usually go to my drive-in in Lexington in the summer.
I agree
A time I will never forget.
I could go for some Castleberry's pit cooked barbecue sandwiches right now.
Were they pork or beef?
@@luisreyes1963 I think they were beef. I don't know
and a choco-bar

They’re pit cooked. See you in CHURCH.
These are THE BEST to watch when dining. If I get late night fast food I absolutely come home and tune in one of these on CZcams and just munch and enjoy the vintage graphics. Truly a blast!
It is👍
I work at a drive in and we still have all of those old intermission commercials
I like that.
July 13, 2020----I'm 67 and boy, do I remember seeing these as a kid on the various Air Force bases we were stationed at. Thanks for the memories.

Bingo!
I see that in S3-1.
Well, im one of them.

We need bring back drive in movie theaters if they ever close one just restore them let people come enjoy 50's 60's and 70's and 80's movies also 90's movies.
Are you going to write a check to keep a drive in open???
We have one open in the summer time they're old movies but it's a cool experience
we have one still left in Detroit they play all the new stuff Google ford Wyoming drive in
There's one near Pittsburgh still in business playing all the new movies. I go to it every once in a while
I live right next to one and it still plays modern movies!

For those too young to know the 60's and 70's, it was like this. War raged on in Vietnam. Network nightly news broadcasts (there was no Fox or CNN yet) often displayed body counts for the day. Usually with deep jungle footage.
Beyond that, mid 20th century was a great era! Drive-in theaters were everywhere, usually only had one screen with two films. The intermission film shown here was everywhere and popular. People dashed to the concession stand - it was your last chance to get a drink and food. When the second film started, they closed the stand. You stood in a line with 10 or so people in front of you hoping to get back to your car before the lights were turned off!
When my wife and I were first together, we had very little money for even the drive-in. One night I got the idea to smuggle her in using the trunk of the car. I had her get in there down the road from the drive-in. No sooner had I parked in a great spot and was reaching for the window speaker and she began to get out. A man pulled up and asked "are you going to pay for the girl getting out of the trunk of your car?" I said, sure, and gave him the money. Had no money for popcorn that night!
I miss that era. Life was so simple and easy. Screw computers, cell phones, facebook (which I still refuse to join) and all of it. No subliminal audio or video like you have rampant today. You could go where you want and do what you wanted. Almost no nazi-cops on a power trip to hassle you (except in parts of the deep south.) Overall, LIFE WAS GOOD.
"You get more out of life when you go out to a movie" wow, that is actually quite true

They should bring movie intermissions back so you have time to get food at the snack bar again
Back then they would play two movies and between the movies be the intermission. That was back when everyone wasn't trying to overload their schedule and life moved slower so you could enjoy things more.
Dang movies lasting 2-3 hours long yeah they need to do intermissions again!
@@TimmyTheTinman Tell me about it. Back than people took things slowly and actually enjoyed life. Nowadays everyone is in such damn hurry and in a less than stellar moods.
and now ads took over the intermission s
and that's where ads come in.
Back when you real had food that wasn't photoshopped to look perfect
It wasn't photoshopped, but advertising companies always knew tricks to make food look better for photography
Julian Banuelos search for food stylist here on youtube
You haven't read a 60s cookbook, huh? Look up James Iileks. You'll see some horrific photography. He wrote Interior Desecrations about decor in the 70s. Too.
Instead of photoshop they just used clay or plaster to make the food look better.
Nice English.
I just love that this is all with animations. Nowadays people just make everything big, shiny, and not at all like in real life. Snack ads today: photo shooting of some unrealistic food and allways unbarebly overactive voice and music to it.
Snacks then: A fricking animation with delightfully calming music and the voice is talking to the animation, making it look like a small movie. It's frickin enjoyable. Not like today. Nobody is going to upload a "2020 advertisements" video.
and today you're never gonna know when the show starts.
Now I want to go to a drive-in-theatre :'(
Have a drive in near me and honestly love seeing this ad every year. If there is a drive in near you i 100% recomend going.
PDA's not allowed in the theatre... that's why there were Drive-Ins!
I wish that I could experience the 1960, 70s, and 80s.

Obsessed about Facebook, Twitter and the like? THAT is pathetic. Many are headed for carpal tunnel surgery when they get older from over-use of the their thumbs at a awkward angle.I'm damn glad no phone runs my life; I don't even carry one around.
I now kinda want to make a hot dog, grab some cheese, and make some popcorn while I switch to TCM.
A man of culture, I see.
I'm waiting for a movie to start at the drive in right now. They actually still show these commercials for the novelty.
I got you hot dogs.
@@kyouhate9453 I forgot about this! The movie was Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom. About halfway through the car battery died, so I was at the mercy of the other cars. It was cold. We needed a guy to jumpstart the car. It wasn't ideal.
They still have these promotions at the FORD WYOMING DRIVE-IN
they still show these ads in a drive in in indiana
Huntington?
Same with North Ridgeville Ohio
I think they still do it at the Drive-In in Barstow, California
Same in Lancaster Ohio(Skyview Drive-In), or at least for the dancing food.
EDIT: Yeah, just saw it after Sonic the Hedgehog.
EDIT 2: I think South Drive-In in Columbus Ohio also uses that intermission too, I'll see if they do when I see Detective Pikachu on Sunday.
Same in North Carolina
In Miami in the early 70s, my cousin and i would watch drive in movies from the roof of my house; we couldn't hear it but we didn't care
Anyone else remember seeing the cartoon ad with the living goodies during the drive-in scene in Grease? The hot dog one is especially memorable. :)
This sparks nostalgia for memories I never even had
Faux Nostalgia
(/fō/ /näˈstaljə/; Adj, Noun)
1. Being nostalgic for something before your time
2. Replicating a part of the past in order to relive it, Or to experience a time before . your own.
They play these ads no joke at my grandmas drive in
Have you seen any of the ads made in recent years? If you have, then you understand why drive-ins play the vintage ads.
I'm sure it's just a nostalgia thing. Brings them back to when they were eight years old. Theres definitely a business in that
0:26 Foreshadowing Sausage Party
Uncalled for dude
We still see these every time we go to the drive in!!!
“Let’s all go to the lobby, to get ourselves a treat!”
“Chilly Dilly Pickles!”

Mmmm, all-meat hot dogs!
Don't ask us what kind of meat it is, just enjoy!
DISCLAIMER- _"Please note, our All-Meat Hot Dogs do not actually contain Meat."_
Hooves, kidneys, tendons, beaks, testicles, etc. etc.
gmc9753 *eats a 🌭* huh?
It could be hyena meat for all I know, I would be happy if it just tasted like a hot dog!
😂
They always play this during intermissions at a drive in theatre that I visit in Brampton, Ontario.
This is so nostalgic to me. I'm only 12 but I love old stuff. In San Antonio, Texas there's this drive in theater called the Stars And Strips theater and they play these ads before every movie so its really nostalgic and familiar to me. Everytime I watch these ads I think of simpler times before everything where my family would go to the drive in to see the latest movies. These ads give me peace I wouldn't imagine having, it relaxes me and makes me think in a good way.
You're how old?
@@dellalyn9918 13 going to be 47
These intermissions will always have a special place in my heart!
Including the all-meat super dog?
👍♥️
Never be days like this again.
This is what I loved about going to the drive-in. Those cute little intermission ads. Man I miss those days. Today's generation doesn't know what they missed!
The "Let's all go to the lobby" one (might not have been drive-in but apparently it's from the 50s) was actually shown in our theaters but was edited so that after the refreshments stopped singing and you heard "Cut!" (as if they were filming it) they would talk on their cell phones and the Geico Gecko would come and tell them to stop talking because the "audience" (us) could hear them. It was pretty great, actually. It also had that authentic 50s/60s tune to it as if it were the original.
I've never been to a drive in but I've always wanted to because this is so relaxing and gives a good vibe and energy and I love old times. I'm only 14 and I miss the old times and I love it and I much prefer these times other than current 2020. The colors were so amazing and I just want to live back then
Some of the things back then I never want to experience, but the ascetic was just beyond charming
I can't believe I actually remember those drive-in commercials! LOL
I loved going to the drive-in when I was a kid. It was so exciting piling into the car in our pjamas and carrying our pillows.
I swear, that first one was used in Grease!
The Fat Italian Grease brought me here
The Fat Italian the whole thing was used in grease.
you are right I thought it was in grease too
The Fat Italian the one with the food doing tricks?
It was during Stranded at the Drive In
I miss drive-in's! I live near Milwaukee, WI and I remember going to the Starlite Drive-in as a kid. It was always fun going with my sister to the cossesion stand to get pop corn, hot dogs and other treats! Those were really special times! Thanks for posting this video!
This brings back so many memories from being a kid and going to the drive in almost every weekend. Hope drive ins stay relevant so we can bring our kid to them
I grew up in a place with a drive in theater and I would have loved this lol
I still love the drive in I remember those commercials and that's right yum yum!!!.
Notice there is no “Please turn off you cell phone” call
Because they didn’t exist back then
I do not think thats a thing at the drive in.
They didn't exist in the 50's...
Only thing close to a cellphone was a radio CB unit in those times which to me seem more cheaper because you don't have to pay a monthly fees.
2:27 Music by John Seely, used in a Warner cartoon.
Thanks for the info, Mr. Diaz. It is a commonly recognized 50s tune, used behind other things. I like it a lot.
I come back every year to watch this on May 13.
We had a truck-and-camper with the bed over the cab and the big window in the front. All of us kids would lie down up there and watch the show while mom and dad stayed in the cab!
"Sandy! You can't just walk out of a drive in! "
I’d walk out as soon as the ads finished
I always loved the way stars were drawn back in the 50s and 60s
I feel some much nostalgia and this all happened 40/45 years before I was born
Omg the first snacks one! My local drive has the reel for that and they play it every night! Of all the things I was expecting to find on CZcams, this was not it, but it is a pleasant surprise!
I notice one Drive in Theater in Ocala, FL has this.
2:26 "Do you suppose you could get me a job as a snack bar attendant?"
That's the dream isn't it? Employment!
Dear God alive I wish I was employed
These were the happiest days of my life…
That Castleberrys Pit Cooked Bar-B-Q segment with the BG music hits the spot !
"BG music", Brutus?
Back Ground Music It's Just Something About It .
@@mikeb8638 Oh! Okay. Yeah, I agree. Thanks for the explication.
How would you expect to buy snacks in 8 minutes if there's gonna be a line? You ain't gonna make it in 8 minutes
that's why you left 5 minutes early
Back in the day we would bring our own food beer and weed. And a good time was had by all.
What great memories. Sitting in the back of my dads caddy in my pj’s. He’d go to buy all the snacks and drinks. And man that food was good.
🍔🍟🍕🌭🍿🌮🍦
This actually plays at the drive in down the road, it's so amazing to see, every time I visit!
Oh!..for a time machine...
So much nostalgia
Going to the drive-in many years ago as a kid, was so exciting. I miss those days!!
Me too.✌
I remember backing in our pickups and setting up lounge chairs in the box, we saw the blues brothers about six times that summer.
Castleberry's Pit-Cooked Barbecue Sandwiches- for when the word "Hamburger" was just too common. :P
RobotwarsKing I think it IS a BBQ sandwich.
Pulled pork and beef brisket *IS* a barbeque sandwich, you dolt. You have to give drive-ins a little more credit than that.
RobotwarsKing Sloppy Joe's!
Damn. I miss Drive In Movies.
Me too. 😟
I gotta say that the music and audio in these commercials make this so much more eerie and creepy.
Never saw the "public affection" sign before, because I was already in the back seat by intermission!!!🤣
Now a days the lines for the concession stand would last much longer than 8 minutes
this creeped me the hell out
when i fell asleep in the 1st movie i woke up to this and got freaked out
but they only played the cartoon things
AWESOME. :)
What would REALLY scare you is if you fell asleep during a movie that you went to by yourself, and woke up to a dark theater, with a giant grinning clown on the screen right in front of you! (Or some shadowy figures in the corner of the theater...)
it was after the newer Xmen
i woke up to that yeah that would be creepy
to anyone who is going alone to a drive in
dont go alone and falling asleep espeically if its in the back of the truck because there might be some rapists looking for female/male ready to pounce if your tired i would say to drive home if its a double feature
Thunder Daze Its true that when you are tired (ESP. very tired) you are far more vulnerable to attack (or falling asleep at the wheel on the way home). In other words, going to a late late movie is only a good idea if you're going with someone else/a group, and its a safe area. As in, no long walks in the dark to the car at night. (Unless, again, the area is fairly safe, and you are not too tired, and you're with other people, etc. I, myself, prefer the quiet company of a certain young woman I'm more interested in in the evening, away from noise, etc., but those long walks should be in safer areas...) I've never had any bad experiences at night like that, myself. And there is a side to modern life involving this, and similar subjects, that I have always felt was not the way things should be (two people on a date shouldn't HAVE to worry about their own safety as much, there are so many things that are attacking traditional, healthy relationships these days, that we don't need more lunacy like this...).
BenjaminGessel Take a self defense course Bro! and protect the ones' you love! - ALWAYS! There was an incident in my town; a dude washing his truck at night was robbed then shot. The Fucking "Low Life" stole his truck and took his money. Be Safe and Aware - ALWAYS! Oh' the dude that was shot, survived!
I'm loving this, my family worked at a drive in from 1971-78
1963 It's a Mad mad mad mad world is at the Drive-In and Me and my parents are in our 1960 Rambler, My Father was laughing his ass off!
back when they used real sugar and real meat!
Dustbowl Hammer real sugar drinks still exist in gooseneck bottles.
Back when cocaine was in Coca-Cola. Lol love those days
If I only invented a time machine...
And asbestos!!
back when they were affordable...
Someone asked in an earlier comment if there are still any drive-ins around. We have one here in Lancaster, Oh. (30 miles south of Columbus, the state capitol) called the Sky View Drive-In and it was built in 1948.
Bengie's Drive-in in MIddle River, MD -- just east of Baltimore -- has been working since 1956; I also know of a rare double-screen theater, the Route 11 Drive-in, at the head of the Shenandoah Valley near Winchester, VA.
The Winchester here in the Oklahoma City metro.
DDKaraokeOutlaw Great, I’ve always wanted to go to one
Multiple-screen drive-ins aren't rare today. Most are at least 2 screens, and some have as many as 8 - 10 screens.
Cascade Drive-In in West Chicago, IL. One screen with two movies a night.
In my small town in Illinois we use these same ads for our drive in theater
Our drive-in still plays this ad
This made me smile😊
Remember when you put ketchup and mustard on hotdogs and hamburgers with a SPOON?! Those were the days, weren't they?
I think squirt bottles have been around for a while.
I just saw these LAST NIGHT at a Drive-In in Milford, NH. It was a double feature: Raiders of the Lost Ark and Temple Of Doom. I love these commercials!
Our "local" (about an hour away) Drive-In still plays the first one between movies when they do a double-feature. I've been going up there for about 25 years....and hearing some of these brings back very...errr...distinct...memories of a crazy chick I knew that used to go up there with me. Amazing what you can do in a '99 Cavalier.
Our drive in starting to play 1940s bugs bunny and tom and jerry durning intermission
That’s awesome
I saw Jaws at the drive-in when it came out, and I've never gone swimming int he ocean since! There is a drive-in not to far from where I live, and we would go during the summer when my kids were little.
Those were the good'ol days at the drive-inn.
