amazing that 2 competing drive ins were able to co-exist side by side in the 50’s & 60’s. Multiplexes don’t even do that today!

Sorry Jay to burst your bubble but they do!

It’s called the 52 (!!!) screens of Ontario California. 30 screens at AMC Ontario Mills Dine In AND 22 screens at Edwards (Regal) Ontario Palace with IMAX and RPX. I’ve been to both and only a parking lot and a street separate them. Never have to worry about a sell out when a blockbuster plays on TWELVE TO FOURTEEN screens! Decisions…
