Drive-in Movies

Hey Ladies! It's been crazy in my world with the LO, so I haven't been able to visit here that much like I used to :-(  Hope all is well with everyone!! 

DH and I would love to go to the movies, but with the LO that would be hard.  I was thinking about going to a drive-in, but don't know of any except for the one in Dearborn.  My friend told me about the Compuware Arena, but they just show kids movies (we want to see hangover and bridesmaids).  Does anyone know of any other drive-ins?  If not, we'll just have to make it a blockbuster night when it comes out on DVD! ha! 

Re: Drive-in Movies

  • The one at Compuware isn't just kids movies, they have 3 screens with double features each night on each screen.  I've been meaning to go for years but haven't despite the fact that I live like 2 miles away.  It's busy though, so get there a little early!

  • The Silverdome has a drive in too if you're willing to drive to Pontiac. I don't know what the current showings are but I had they had been showing Hangover 2. There is a website and a facebook fan page. www.silverdomedrivein.com
  • We are totally doing this on Saturday night and I'm super excited.  I'm not help though because I think we are just going to the one in Dearborn.  :)

  • Last summer we would take Lucas and go to Compuware.  It was nice because you are in your car and dont have to worry about baby bothering anyone. It looks like they have Hangover2.

  • We lived at the drive in last summer when DD was only a few months old.

    We did Compuware and Dearborn... Compuware is in a nicer area but the actual Drive in park isn't that great.

    Dearborn is very vintage huge drive in and personally i like it better.  

    It is such a great idea for a night out without having to deal with a babysitter - and Clara would usually fall asleep on the ride out and then just sleep the whole movie as DH and i cuddled for the movie :)

  • Thanks. I don't know what I was looking at because when I looked up the Compuware theatre I just saw a couple of G rated movies. Also, I wasn't sure how Dearborn would be, but glad to know most enjoy that one also. I also totally forgot they turned the silverdome into one. Ha! Thanks ladies. Looks like there is hope for DH & I to see a movie before it goes on DVD after all.
  • There is also a drive in off of Old US 23 in Fenton Mi. It has three screens. I plan on going sometime soon.
