Ronnie's Drive In on South Lindbergh. Got to watch the first movie and then had to lie down in the back seat to go to sleep during the second R-rated movie. These experiences with family CANNOT be duplicated today. Would it even be safe?

Ernest Rides Again (1993)

Many people no know, all peope ảround world throw away their old unit system and change to SI units. All civilization have diferent unit sets and replace it in 19th and 20th century. Any old unit still use now become define by SI unit.

Oh this brings back memories of my youth in Flagstaff, AZ. This always made me think of The Partridge Family

I worked at St. Claire 10 Cine from 1993-1997 This tune is embedded in my brain.

You're in the theater waiting for the movie to start and they force you to sit through a minute and a half of pure darkness, listening to their theme.

This takes me back to the 70s used to love going to the show.Lots of things were cheaper than tickets.Concessions, everything, but I always remember. This theme goes through my head a lot

The ba-ba-bas should be a stadium chant now that they don’t use this anymore

7:37 ain’t no way dawg they got the *lead pipe noise* 💀💀💀

This is my daily wake-up alarm. This is how I start my day.

Halls Ferry 14...ohhh the memories 😩🥹

This has become something spiritual for me

L.A. Beast

skippy62able aka the L.A. Beast brought me here! :)

Yeah nice, video basically shadowbanned because they don’t want people to know this was “real” shown to the public and told that it’s real.

lol I don’t have him but I wish that’s how it worked 😂

I mean I like the whispering one though too

This video has made me very upset due to the unrealistic physics and the fact that this can be classified as a prac activity in your year nine science class

The world uses the same language when playing chess or telling time or reading music, but America just won't fucking accept the metric system. The End

vital industries have already converted to Metric. Once a single state such as California has gone Metric, then we will see it spread across the USA for day to day use,

What would happen if you were to eat that?

This is perfect.Had to hear it,as others have said it is burned into my brains.I grew up in St Louis the entire 80's decade and movies were my life!Thank you.

Des Peres 4 Cinema...

I grew up in DesPeres❤

I can't sit through 10 seconds for a tv show opening title or credit sequence now. Unbelievable we used to sit through a one-and-a-half minute theme song for the THEATER, let alone the 20 minutes of previews that would follow.

Metric system lovers - let's adjust Mother nature for our lazy convenience. Nature sometimes kills.

not many lyrics huh lol

sussy baka

My second grade teacher taught us metric measurements, and said soon the US would convert. We practiced measuring issuing both meter and yardstick up through 4th grade ( 1978). Since I worked in labs, we always used metric there. I always wondered why we didn't totally convert. Except possibly in the building trades, it's easier. When I go to Europe, it takes me a second to switch over to kph and Celsius in my head.

Whew this just took me all the way back!

Embarrassingly bad.

(Whispers) wehrenberg… wehrenberg…

You have a large popcorn and coke, and the theater goes dark and the bass starts… you know you’re in for a good time!

Send to JRM straight away!!

5:34 "Although all scientists use Celsius thermometers, only the poor American scientist has to go home to Fahrenheit" 🤣 I keep telling my students this truth every year.

nice vid

Absolutely fascinating!

The only thing missing is the fart-like audio sound at the end! I need this as my ringtone, STAT! But how?

Wheres the original footage?

In the United States, scientists, chemists, physicists, engineers, astronomers, biologists, architects, geologists, geographers, NASA, universities, the military, and everyone who works in academia or industry routinely use the metric system. But most ordinary people are stubborn and don't want to adapt to the metric system so they don't have to learn to multiply or divide by 10. It's just habit, comfort and mental laziness. If the US government forced them to learn and use the metric system, in a few years this problem would be history. How to do it? First of all, remove imperial units (or quirky units) from food packaging and any other container that holds anything, replacing it with metric units. Second, eliminate all urban signage that contains archaic units and change them to metric. Third, adjust weights and scales so that all unpackaged or bulk products are sold using metric units. Fourth, eliminate imperial units from all types of hand, electric, pneumatic or combustion tools, and replace them with metric units. Fifth, ban all media, under penalty of imprisonment and heavy fines, any mention of imperial units. Sixth, anyone who stubbornly does not want to adopt the metric system will be locked up for 5 years listening to Justin Bieber songs.

The Holy Trinity of St. Louis Interrogation: 1) "Oh, you're from St. Louis? What part?; 2) What high school did you go to?; 3) Do you know so-and-so?

I am from India

Where did you go to high school? Also, can you hum the Wehrenberg theme? 😂

makes me wonder why most Americans wont use metrics.... perhaps its an unhealthy amount of "American exceptionalism".. and I've learned that there CAN be times where you can have too much of a good thing.....

From St. Louis, the nostalgia!

We would go to Midrivers Mall growing up to see our movies. Then there was the Dollar theater right off the highway. But I remember sitting in the theater while this them was playing with the grainy audio and the occasional BOOM when they changed tracks (i guess), staring at a blank screen until the logo slowly edged up near the end. It signaled to me that I was really at the movies about to have a real movie experience. The theme was stupid, but it's forever burned into the nostalgic part of my brain. Thanks for posting.

O'Fallon theater

"when the united states converts to the metric system" :-D :-D :-D

Watching this in 2021

I’ve bought yet another Honda 250 super dream. It has not run for many years. But looking at the 40 year old technology it is a clever motorcycle. It’s been a pleasure to put it back on the road.
