West Seattle Junction Outdoor Movies on the Wall recently featured the first “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie, and many (arrrrrrrr) really got into the spirit, including Andre’ from Endolyne Joe’s (WSB sponsor), who barbecued pulled-pork sandwiches before the show! The cupcakes from Coffee to a Tea had a pirate theme, too, and the pre-show goofiness involved “swabbing the deck” with a frisbee. It all happened in the courtyard by Hotwire Online Coffeehouse (WSB sponsor), 4410 California SW, next to the post office. The courtyard really filled up fast, and the movie was a smashing success! What could be better than Pirates on the big screen?

West Seattle, Washington: Outdoor Movie "Pirates of the Carribean"
West Seattle, Washington: Another Fantastic Night of Open Air Cinema at West Seattle Junction "Outdoor Movies on the Wall"

West Seattle Junction’s “Outdoor Movies on the Wall” enjoyed yet another fantastic season of open air cinema this summer. A screening of Close Encounters of the Third Kind drew quite a crowd earlier this month, with hundreds of children and full-grown adults sporting foil alien hats… only at West Seattle. Movie-goers always enjoy fun and slightly off-kilter pre-show entertainment before the outdoor films begin each Saturday, and this screening was no different. Though clouds loomed dangerously overhead, a large crowd gathered to see the classic sci-fi film. Foil alien hats also make for good rain protection; fortunately the weather held out and they were not needed for that particular purpose. Everyone enjoyed creating their own unique hat and participating in the contest (winning hat-maker is pictured).
Other outdoor movies enjoyed this season included Pirates of the Caribbean, Footloose, and King Kong (the old one).
