As the temperature dial and radio dials start to match up in our car, we've been thinking more and more about taking a day to go cool off poolside at any one of DFW's water attractions.

Folks looking for a poolside getaway that is definitely for the over 21 crowd should head up to the Belmont Hotel in Dallas for their final outdoor screening on July 1. They'll be showing the classic spoof "Airplane" for free, but a "movie night package" from the hotel could be your staycation solution.

Families have many more options for "dive-in" films, and, honestly, we'd have a blast at one or two of the films even without the kiddos. All locations of Hawaiian Falls water parks (Mansfield, The Colony, and Garland) will start showing films every Friday from July 3 - August 14. To help cool down folks in the hot Texas sun, Hawaiian Falls plans to dump ice into the wave pool before the screenings -- talk about chilling out! 

NRH2O in North Richland Hills has already started with their screenings on June 12, and will continue until August 7.

We've listed the screening dates for NRH2O and Hawaiian Falls below:

Hawaiian Falls
July 3 - Jaws: The Revenge
July 10 - Kung Fu Panda
July 17 - Iron Man
July 24 - Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
July 31 - Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D
August 7 - Madagascar II
August 14 - High School Musical 3 (Mansfield & The Colony) -- The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything (Garland)

July 3 – The Incredible Hulk
July 10 – Kung Fu Panda
July 17 – Jaws
July 24 – Journey to the Center of the Earth in 3D
July 31 – Iron Man
August 7 – Madagascar Escape 2 Africa
