Drive-in Theaters, Crying Rooms, and Chris’ Enormous Head
Strap in, because Jeff and Chris are one drive-in snack bar announcement away from a full nervous breakdown. This week, the boys hit Episode 68—two away from their totally arbitrary, earth-shattering milestone of Episode 70. What dothey talk about? Well, what don’t they? We’re talking drive-in theaters (where the movie was always secondary to pajamas, brown paper bags of greasy popcorn, and sneaking in through the trunk), movie ushers wielding flashlights like Jedi knights, and the long-lost art of heckling horror films until the whole crowd sounds like a drunken improv troupe.
Also, up for debate: crying rooms vs. smoking rooms (yes, those were real), the hell of modern trailers that spoil entire films, the social stigma of going to movies alone, and why Nicole Kidman really needs to stop telling people how magical AMC is—while they’re already sitting inside AMC.
Warning: this episode contains graphic descriptions of line-cutting revenge, soda-related crimes, and the kind of behavior that ushers live to bust.
It’s part nostalgia trip, part therapy session, and 100% proof that these two will derail any plan they start with. But hey, that’s the Nice Pull! way.
