The date of the Coburg Drive In has been put back a month to Saturday March 27th 2009 - Hope you can join us.  It will be a littler darker earlier then, so the movie should start a little earlier.

How to Train Your Dragon
Director: Peter Hastings
Gerard Butler, America Ferrera, Jonah Hill, Jay Baruchel, Christopher Mintz-Plasse
Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III is a young boy and the heir of the Viking chiefdom, but with one very big problem: a hero he is not. "How to Train Your Dragon' is the comical story of Hiccup's quest to hunt down the fiercest dragon, bring it into submission and, hopefully, pass his initiation. But when Hiccup ends up with the smallest, most ornery (and toothless!) dragon, what follows is a great adventure of the world's most lovable, unlikely hero and a most reluctant "beast."

Animated feature based on the book by Cressida Cowell.
