How do I listen to the movie? Tune into the FM radio station displayed on the movie screen the day of the movie for film sound. Please remember to bring a portable FM radio if you choose not to use your car radio for sound. Phone radio apps will NOT work for listening to the film audio. Portable or car FM radios are the only way to go!
When can I leave the movie? You can leave any time during the evening. Please notify one of the BlueStar parking staff before you move your car unless the movie is over. Just be aware of your surroundings as you back out (many people sit in front of their cars), and exit to the right of the screen with your flashers on.
My car battery died! What do I do? If you find that your car battery needs a jump, come to the concession booth and we’ll dispatch a service provider to your vehicle and get it up and running again. Be aware that during busy times, we may ask you to wait until a staff member is available to assist you.
