Great, glad to see they are improving the trailer trash element of their business.

LOL you wouldn’t want to sit in your car the dark most places where there is a Walmart. Just sayin!

willchen79 I thought they were supposed to be testing sites for coronavirus? I guess making money during an pandemic is more important.

How about more of them turn their lots into covid testing sites?

Well great! Now they have a chance to play their $5 DVD bin that no one really buys from.

Barnes_Law Can we smoke blunts in the CA locations?

AND WHAT'S THE MOST FAMOUS LINE FROM EVERY TV SHOW & FILM SET IN A DRIVE IN MOVIE THEATER?!?! ' HEY BABY, YOU EITHER PUT OUT OR GET OUT !!! '

Barnes_Law Great, Walmart will be able to make even more money off the pandemic. 🙄

This might be a good idea for my town !? Recently, our movie theater closed, so now the closest one is about 40 miles away ! I can picture a drive-in at our Walmart !

Can't wait to see Joe Bob and kinky_horror at the Walmart:) MutantFam

When coronavirus pandemic will done !! I hate myself.

Rich getting richer. Too bad local schools didn't think of this first. They have parking lots big enough with clubs and athletics needing the money. Or even local restaurants to cater.

Oh ohh AMCTheatres Walmart is coming for your bag!💰💰💵💵

I grew up on drive-in theatre however that day and age has passed. It’s a different world. This year has proven how hurtful and inhumane people can be. I don’t think drive-in theatres are safe anymore. I’m not a negative people but let’s be real...how safe would you feel?

Playing Gone with the Wind as the first movie ....

Oh that ought be a riot. I mean that literally. people can't behave any more.

Good Idea. I went to a lot of Drive-in Movies. Looking forward to it happening.

Awesome!!! I used to love those as a kid. Now the younger generation can see what some of us older people used to enjoy. Like a fine album, A & B, both sides, 1 They called it a 45.

If true, congrats are in order for out of the box thinking. 👏 👏 👏 👏 this is a team of people deserving reward

Weill there be a list of what wallmarts will be doing this

Another reason we need to vote in person

Oh my. My WalMart just paved their whole parking lot and painted them. It looks beauty

They bring the shopping bags or just the popcorn?

What a great idea!🎉

You 💩💩💩 me... that’s so freaking smart da faq. Cheap dates at wal mart here I come 😬
