We are deeply disappointed that we will not be playing “Incredibles 2” or “Ant-Man 2” July 6 to 12.
We tried to our very best to get what we thought was a great program. At this time Disney will not play a new film on a single screen drive-in for less than 3 weeks for most films. We do not think this is fair to us or our customers. To make matters worse, if we agreed to show “Incredibles 2” and “Avengers Infinity War”, we would have to play it for ...2 weeks even though the movie will be 4 weeks old. Right now Disney is trying to acquire FOX studios. If this deal goes through, I worry for the long-term sustainability of our drive-in and many others like it. You as the customer have the right to demand when and where you can watch a film. Only you can change this troubling trend. The studio will not listen to us, but they should listen to you. Please remember when choosing your next movie for entertainment that your choice will either help or hurt a local theatre. Thank you to all the studios that support Drive-Ins: Warner Bros, Universal Studios, Paramount Studios, 20th Century FOX, Sony Studios, VVS Films and E One. It's sad to think that a studio that helped make drive-ins a happy family place could, in the end, be the one studio that ends up destroying them. I truly hope that Disney will look at their policies and make changes so that drive-ins can survive another 60 years. Please comment on Disney Studios Canada Facebook page and Instagram; tell them your thoughts. Would you like them to change their policy on Drive-Ins and not to force them to play the same movie for 3 weeks? It's not right; it's not fair. Sorry for the long post but this is important to our survival. Thank you for your support.
