Although I know there are not many around any more I was wondering what people prefer. We like going to the drive ins with the kids as it's fun outside and no one cares if the kids talk! Which do yo like better?

I never been to a drive - in theater before, and I don't really how the experience was like. I would rather prefer the theater better, because I can enjoy the surround sound quality of the movies. Plus, in the hot summer time, I rather sitting inside to have the air conditioning rather sitting outside, hot and humid. That is my personal preference.

The way everyone here is talking drive in's must not be like they used to be when I was young. I haven't been to one in years, but I used to enjoy it when we used to go. Of course this was when they sprayed the area so you weren't eaten up. All us kids would get a blanket and lay on the ground with one of the speakers and watch the movie. I can remember when the movie would mess up and everyone would sit there and blow their horns, like this was going to make the movie come on faster. Of course that was before the walk ins (theaters) became as nice as they are now.

I don't think it is all that different just people are looking for more of the comfort I guess though I love sitting in the back of the truck with the kids just hanging out!

I actually went to a drive in last year and had a blast! It had been many years since I had been to a drive in, I thought there weren't any around my area anymore. I do like going to the theater too.

It's too bad there just aren't very many around anymore. I think a lot of people would be open to them if there where more.

I like movie theaters better, especially the IMAX, those are really cool to go to when you're watching a good action or thriller movie. I just like theaters better because its dark and quiet and I can enjoy the movie better. I have been to drive in's before and they were fun too. It was something that was new and different for me and I had a good time, but I would still rather go to a theater than a drive in.

I still prefer theatre. Aside from the fact that it has big screen and the sound is way greater it also fun watching with a bunch of people.
