growing up, shop rite had a big ass drive-in theatre to the left of it, on the side of eckerds. i never went, but because it was always there, i thought it was a normal thing until i moved from warwick. i’ve never been to one until tonight. we pulled in, parked the sequoia backwards, turned the radio station to 90.7, then opened the windows. i really loved the experience. although we couldn’t have the car on, the blankets kept us somewhat warm during a very chilly saturday night. the movie was smile. jaanntrear said the movie wasn’t that good, and i’m inclined to agree with her. perhaps my judgement is clouded by the fact i haven’t seen too many horror films, but the premise was actually really good. it also didn’t help that i fell asleep for 15-20 minutes during. i think the ending was too predictable, but i still loved everything about tonight. after the film, i went to use the restroom. when i walked in, it was pretty clean for the traffic it was getting. they also had a silence of the lambs and godfather poster in there among other classic films, so that was a plus. the night was topped off with a mcflurry and good conversation on the way home.
bout as good as a first time could have went, so i’m satisfied.
