At Bass Hill you do. You tune in through the radio. You need to be able to clip the wire onto your aerial. I had a hard time with my broken aerial when we saw Herbie. Wrapping it around and around the broken stubby bit worked OK.

the_pres ·

Flat four will be there for sure!!!! i think the drive ins are a couple of weeks behind though so probably the 24th of June or the 1st of July would be best!!! keep us posted!!👍😵

53racer ·

Oh, I wanna see this movie, but I still dont have my vw 🙁
dont wanna turn up with something non vw :S

ColumBUS ·

flat four will be making an appearance, however some club members have previous arrangements and most probably cannot attend if its on at bass hill.

FYI - amazer i think maybe you have the wrong drive in? they have speakers there if you do not have a stereo, and you dont need a wire to attach to your aerial either?
too many dried chillis for you maybe 🤓

Bizarre ·

So any one know for sure the drive in runs for 2 week shows???

I'll be throwing a canister of chilli powder mixed with itching powder down your frilly knickers come valla time.

Maybe I couldnt pick up the reception cos my aerial was broken off or maybe its different depending on where you park. There were no speakers up back where I was. I can tell you that with authority as I endured 10 minutes of nag while scrambling to get some sound.

Bizarre ·

Bump

who's in??

pete wood ·

yep, it's on the calender and the local authority (her indoors) has approved it. 👍

Fireball xl5 ·

we will be there. Although will I need to fit a radio for blacktown drivein?
And is anyone heading from the innerwest?

Bizarre ·

Yep - I'm at Abbotsford (5 Dock)

Where are you???

ColumBUS ·

so its at blacktown drive in, what time?

Bizarre ·

http://www.greaterunion.com.au/cinemas/cinema.asp?cinema=6&state=NSW

Wont be Blacktown - its off now

Have to wait now to see if Bass Hill will have it

Screened 2nd on Saturday - 1st feature starts 7.30

pyr0 ·

so is it on for this saturday ??

Fireball xl5 ·

Live in newtown, so will I need a radio in my car?

wacked1 ·

Hi guys
While getting the finer details sorted for the cars movie this Saturday night, I was told by Greater Union drivinns blacktown that it was only shown for the first week of release then will be screened again during the school holidays so the new date looks to be Friday 14th July it’s a early bird session which starts at 6 PM, sorry to all that planned on coming to this movie I was really looking forward to it.
Any probs post here
Cheers
Ron

Bizarre ·

OK - definitely not on at Bass Hill either 😬

Was a one week only affair at both drive ins

DUB54V ·

il join in if it doesnt rain,foggy windows lead to nasty things!he he

pete wood ·

:cry

how can they stop showing a movie called "cars" at a drive-in?:o

decked dubby ·

Who was the bright spark in the greater union management team who decided not to run the CARS movie at a drive-in??? Imagine the extra money generated by car enthusiasts (not just VW) who would go too see this movie, and organise runs aswell to see it in a drive-in environment.

I took the kids to see it last Sunday in the cinema, and was looking forward to it again on the Saturday. :cussing
