Talk:Drive-In Theater/@comment-5552829-20141025011453/@comment-25021853-20141102215348

I like Maude, especially her "Haunt Springfield" 24 hour job is perfect this time of year, and you get the Fortune Teller shop too. I got them both back when they first came out earlier this year as part of the Days of Future Future promotional tie-in, and got the Drive-In too. I was a bit hesitant to get it a first, especially as we didn't know much about it when it first came out, but then I saw it at a friend's Springfield and we finally got some information about it and I decided it was worth it to me. If I had to choose between the two I guess I'd pick the Drive-in Theater, but just barely. I like both, but I still wish we could have a movie longer than 3 hours, but then again the Fortune Teller shop is on a one hour cycle so at least we can choose from 4 different length payouts with the Drive-in.

I tend to go with the 3 hour movie most of the time and collect from it along with my other 3 hour properties. I tend to play every couple of hours during the day anyway, every 4 hours between events, more frequently, as often as once a hour for a few minutes with some busy events like this one where it pays to play frequently in short bursts. But like everyone else I need to sleep, and though I do often wake up a few times for bathroom trips and do play for a few minutes before going back to sleep, I do sleep for up to 8 hours uninterrupted sometimes, and all the other pay-to-play properties (Cletus's Farm, KBBL, and Channel 6) all have tasks of 8 hours or more with high payouts. I know Cletus's Farm has had changes to it's list of crops, including G.M.O. Potatoes being added, Tammco changing from 60 minutes to 30 Minutes, and Carrots as a temporary crop, so there is a precedent. I made some suggestions in another post before this one, so I won't repeat what I wrote there, but even without a longer movie or a movie marathon as a choice it would be nice to get more choices of movies at some point, though a longer choice would be most welcome.
