Started out life in 1948 as the Twin Hills Drive-In with one screen. It was twinned I believe in the 1980’s, then added another screen in the late-1990’s.
Played softcore in the 1970’s, then hardcore through the 1980’s and early-1990’s. Began showing mainstream films in early-1990’s and was still going strong until it closed in May 2008.

Please bring it back…. it was so much fun for me growing up spending time.with the family being able to chill and lay back in your own car was the best… I would love to experience this again with my like my parents did with me
Does anyone remember a drive in on 17 it was near 95 and collins road.
To Vinnie, that was the Airbase Drive In that catered to the Jax Naval Air Base. It is now an 84 lumber co.
Wizardtroy here, Good news I hope but we will see want we. Talked to the church at the Playtime D. I. here in Jax and they have been trying to get in touch with me for sometime now. Good news has it that a very wealthy man wants to reopen it before a trucking company gets its claws in it. Will update as I go.
This place was the first place that ive ever went to to see a movie I was 4 years of age my mother took me to this place and as I was growing up I always went back to the movie drive in….until one day I was going there and it was close my heart stopped because they had the most room and space and the best food and every staff member was so nice I really want this place to reopen and if I had the money I would invest in this place and reopen it back up
Odd name?
There was a fire in the vacant (projection?) building according to a local news report on March 4, 2018. No one was injured.
The report mentioned an NPR story that said a church bought the place in 2008 and stayed there through 2014 and along the way “had unusual ceremonies where old x-rated movies were burned in a fire pit.”
This should be reclassified as demolished.
A Church(Christ Church) in the back of the drive-in lot. The snack bar and screen may still be there in the empty field?
