Well, thanks to local panic buying, we decided we would try sliders made from BeyondMeat(tm). So far, it’s been … interesting. You know, that’s what test run movie night is all about. Trying things out. But we’ll cook it up and report back.

Tonight we’re going to have our technical run (i.e., we’re dragging the equipment out of storage to make sure it all works before we begin the real season), and I decided to change up the showing a little. We’re going to run Teenagers from Outer Space I know this is a ‘bad’ movie, but it… Continue reading Teenagers: From Outer Space!!!

We’re going to set up the theater March 14 just to make sure everything’s working. I’m considering running my favorite Laurel and Hardy film, Sons of the Desert.

I know it’s only February, but I’m already planning on the next season. I’m doing some cleaning and maintenance tasks this weekend, and if we get a warm day soon I may try a dry run. Are there any suggestions for movies to show this year?

I know we did the whole Lucy VanPelt thing last weekend. I know you were all ready to see the Birdcage, and we snatched that movie out of your grasp the last second. You really thought we were going to let you kick that ball?? I didn’t verify that there weren’t birthdays. There is a… Continue reading The Birdcage – Delayed Again!!

And it’s time to start automating all the things. I’m going to post primarily on the website, hinnen.us, but now when I do a post should appear in my Facebook account and on my twitter account. All depends on if I did this correctly!

Yes, another reason why you should hang out for our movie night this weekend? Happy anniversary to drive-in movies.

I’ve been using Facebook for years as a low maintenance way to update people on what’s going on with our backyard theater. That’s going to change. My plan is to push more of the updates here to the site. I’m tired of being the product at Facebook, so I’m trying to take back my life.… Continue reading Welcome
