5 Favorite Movie Parties

One of my favorite things about summer, is the release of summer movies.  My kids and I seem to watch a lot of movies in the summer.  Our local movie theater gives out free popcorn on Tuesdays. We will  go see a matinee, and save a lot of money with cheaper prices and free snacks,   Back when I was a kid, it would be quite a treat to go watch a movie at a drive in. I have some great memories of those summer nights with my friends and family.   Our local outdoor mall has free outdoor movies on a big screen every other Saturday which feels a little bit like a drive in. It is always a fun time.  

This summer there are some movies that are we are really looking forward to seeing such as Inside Out,  Minions, and  Pixels, Hopefully I will have the chance to see them, and come up with some fun new party ideas.   Some of my popular posts on this blog are my movie themed parties, so I thought it would be fun to share them again.  

The movie that I am the most excited about this summer is Minions. I loved both of the Despicable Me movies, and love those silly little guys.  I really  loved putting together ideas for this party.

While the movie Frozen was not released in the summer, it is has been one of the most popular parties on my blog.  Over a year later I am still singing Let it Go, and I am really looking forward to Frozen 2.

One of my favorite children's books of all time is Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.  I was so excited when it was made into not one, but two movies.   After the first movie, we had a Cloudy themed party for my daughter's  9th birthday.  After the second, I came up with even more ideas like the Foodimals from Cloudy 2.

While Pokemon has not been made into a major studio feature film, there many Pokemon movies, and seasons of the animated show still on T.V.  My son LOVED Pokemon when he was younger, and we had this party for his 8th birthday.  To this day it is still one of his favorite parties ever.
