History and Description

The Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant takes guests back to a Californian drive-in movie theater set in 1955. To this end, the the tables that guests sit in are shaped like 1950's convertibles, while the whole restaurant is oriented towards a large screen showing B-Picture trailers.

The 45 minute loop that plays in the Sci-Fi Dine in restaurant was curated by Imagineer Stephanie Keith, who spent hundreds of hours searching through film libraries, private collections, and the national Film Archives in Washington DC [1]. According to post production supervisor Louise Gladden:

“It was a challenge to make a piece of film look good but not too good. We needed to keep some of the scratches, which add to the charm of the film.” [1]
