Outdoor cinemas are very popular in my country. They are open from June till early September and they are projecting movies only after 9 pm. This is my last chance for this summer and I am going to watch the movie "Solace" with Anthony Hopkins.
I love the setting in open-air cinemas, even though they don't have the best sound system. They give me the feeling of freedom because I can look up to the sky and see the stars during the movie.
Because of the sound restrictions, not all movies are appropriate for this kind of cinemas. I prefer cute romantic comedies in general but this time I decided to watch something different!
Do you like to watch movies in outdoor cinemas in the summertime?

They have some of those movie showings outdoors in my town too besweet.
I have not been to those. People sit around on the grass to view it.
I have been to what we call drive in movies here many years ago.
It was a favorite activity of teenagers when I was a teenager.

Several years ago there was a temporary outdoor cinema in my city. My ex and I went there. It was hot outside and it was a very nice experience. As far as I know there aren't any permanent outdoor cinemas in Denmark, but I like the idea a lot.

Yes, we went to one last month. They were showing a triple feature, and it was cheaper than movie theaters, so it was great!

I love them, though we have no regular one in my home city. They ran a free one in Manchester a few years back, changing the movies each week and the atmosphere was great.

I remember when outdoor movies were big in our area U.S.A. But you don't see them anymore for some reason. I miss them.

We used to have drive in movies where you go and you watch the movie in your car.
