It's summer blockbuster movie season – and that includes in Deer District, as the Downtown hub will host a free movie series in The Beer Garden this summer.
Rolling film on various Thursday nights at 7 p.m., the Deer District summer movie series will host five screenings throughout the next two months on the big screen in between The MECCA and The Old Fashioned. The movies themselves – comprised of recent popular family-friendly releases like "Barbie" and the animated "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" – are free, with free parking also available in the Highland Avenue structure at 1030 N. Sixth St. Food and beverage will also be available to purchase from nearby bars and restaurants.
Here's the lineup of movies coming to Deer District this summer:
- Aug. 1 – "Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves"
- Aug. 8 – "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem"
- Aug. 22 – "Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire"
- Sept. 5 – "Trolls Band Together"
- Sept. 12 – "Barbie"
Seating will also be available at the screenings with picnic tables, though movie goers can also bring their own chairs or blankets.

As much as it is a gigantic cliché to say that one has always had a passion for film, Matt Mueller has always had a passion for film. Whether it was bringing in the latest movie reviews for his first grade show-and-tell or writing film reviews for the St. Norbert College Times as a high school student, Matt is way too obsessed with movies for his own good.
When he's not writing about the latest blockbuster or talking much too glowingly about "Piranha 3D," Matt can probably be found watching literally any sport (minus cricket) or working at - get this - a local movie theater. Or watching a movie. Yeah, he's probably watching a movie.
