This weekend we are going to see Casablanca at Cinema Under The Stars – an outdoor theater in Mission Hills – and I highly recommend you check out a film there before they finish for the season at the end of the month!
Last year we also waited until the end of the season, but I kind liked being able to snuggle in the blanket they provide with a hot cup of coffee or hot chocolate. We saw Young Frankenstein (LOVE it), and swore we’d come back. While it is a little pricey at $13.50 each, I think if you live in San Diego you’ve got to go at least once.
They show old and new movies, provide zero-gravity lounge seating and couches in the back, a blanket, concession stand and lots of outdoor heat lamps. Plus, you get to watch a movie “under the stars,” which is pretty awesome. If you’re hungry beforehand, your ticket also gets you discounts at some local eateries. There is a different movie every weekend, and unless you are a member you have to go in person to buy your ticket(s) for the Thurs., Fri. or Sat. shows, which they start selling at 6 p.m. every Thurs. If you don’t get your ticket Thurs. for any of that weekend’s showings, chances are they will sell out. The remaining movies this month are Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Star Trek 2009 and The Big Lebowski.
