Inspiration

· There aren't too many drive-in theatres left in Australia - but the few that are, are great. They're cheap, they're retro, and best of all, you can bring your own food. Google drive-ins in your area.

· Most cinemas, even the big chains, have 'cheap' days so keep an eye out for specials.

· Look for independent cinemas in your local area - they are often cheaper.

· Many cinemas now play a range of movies - not just current blockbusters - including classics, international films and other niches. They might even be playing your Old Mate's favourite!

· If it's summertime, a novel way to enjoy the movies are under the stars at a number of outdoor cinemas' that pop up - playing a great mix of new and old flicks.
