@Huh17840840 @rubylovesalysa @Oh_Poppycock @chazzleazzle Tomi, no one cares about your gross opinion about your own grooming.

@juggalochef2399 Thank you, it’s everyone’s drive-in 🥲 We love it when people have a good time with the movies.

[Krista @trashcelluloid]

Sorry, I’m crying, I work at the Mahoning, a big reason why I’ve missed so many episodes of The Last Drive-In when they are live 😭😭
Glad I tuned in tonight #thelastdrivein

[Krista @trashcelluloid]

@Shudder My dudes, people pay for your service, why do you have a watermark ON THE MOVIE, that’s heinous.

[Krista @trashcelluloid]

When I first began watching #thelastsdrivein alone at home during the pandemic, I never imagined I’d be working as a film projectionist at my favorite drive-in 4 years later.

Running film under the stars, there’s nothing else like it. 🎞️ ✨ I owe so much to drive-in culture. ❤️

Shall I return to Twitter for one last night at #thelastdrivein?

@geoffwilt @ryanhasbadtaste I don’t know it but I don’t have much podcast familiarity. I looked it up though and bookmarked the episode so thank you!

Our theater also had a podcast, Mahoning Drive-In Radio. A couple episodes focus on projection (the most recent episode is me talking about my first year).

@geoffwilt @ryanhasbadtaste If you ever make a road trip out to the Mahoning Drive-In in PA, stop by the projection booth, we are pretty open-door until it nears showtime and are happy to answer questions.

[Krista @trashcelluloid]

@ryanhasbadtaste @geoffwilt The truth is, believe it or not, there are not enough film projectionists, especially outside of major cities. So follow your heart and passion and hopefully you’ll make a connection somewhere that mutually works out.

[Krista @trashcelluloid]

@ryanhasbadtaste @geoffwilt All in all I’ve projected/co-projected 118 films in my short rookie tenure and still have a LOT to learn. And it’s frustrating that there are very limited opportunities (if any) for learning programs. So I network and learn everything I can from other projectionists.

@tnyfrontrow You basically hit every point of contention I also had with this movie.

[Krista @trashcelluloid]

@BrianDuffield @WillTheLandMan Would riot if a theater showed me a trailer for the movie I’m about to see before the movie.

[Krista @trashcelluloid]

@MatthewBBryant @janusfilms I complain. Every time. I consider it duty.

[Krista @trashcelluloid]

@sapphicspielbrg We all need Directed By This Jane Schoenbrun shirts now.

@Grimezsz Just tell him you have a 35mm print of Blood Circus and you don’t know what to do with it.
