IL Movie Fans Rejoice For Kick Off Of Drive-In Theater Season
The weather is getting nicer and Illinois residents are heading outside for events including going to outdoor drive-in movie theaters.
Best Way To Watch Movies In Illinois
When I sit back and think about it, the whole watching movie world has become quite amazing. You can pretty much watch whatever you want, wherever you are, and whenever you want. That fact blows me away. There's no need to leave your couch to enjoy the hottest new release or one of the all-time classics. Streaming has made it so easy for movie fans.

I appreciate the technology but I'm old school. I want to go to an actual theater to see movies on a big screen. Plus, the modern theaters are a lot like your living room with heated recliners, state-of-the-art sound, and plenty of tasty snacks. The only problem is that experience has gotten expensive.
For my money, the best way to see a movie is at an outdoor drive-in theater. It's such a good time for the whole family. You're taking advantage of the nice weather and not stuck inside. Enjoy the old-time snack bar. You can even throw on your pajamas.
