I mss these days of classic video stores. I hope fucking Netflix doesn't drive video stores completely gone although as a realist I know they are on life support.
This is the commercial jingle that made me want to the Blockbuster constantly. Subliminal messaging for children: "Tell your parents that you want to go Blockbuster NOW!" LOL!
All the video rental stores by me are going out of business. They don't do well here. A couple years ago this one place went out of business and then Hollywood video went out of bisiness and earlier today I saw a sign on a block buster store that said they were closing:( where am I supposed to get movies now
@Kailey338 Netflex on your computer, phone, ps3, xbox, wii??? Torrents? Red boxes? Blockbuster fucking sucked anyways. ALWAYS hated them. Glad they're almost gone, won't miss them at all. Now I just wish best buy would die too.
@sygo7g They bought out Major Video- there was one near me and a bunch of titles (like Last Temptation of Christ) were pulled after Blockbuster took over. I rented laserdiscs from them for a while, they had a small selection then they got rid of them because "they just weren't renting"- I'm so glad to see this company dying now.
When my hometown got their first Blockbuster back in the 90s, they actually had a couple guys dressed up in suits as these characters, walking around and handing out balloons. Later on, I worked at that Blockbuster and they had this very commercial playing in a loop (among others) on the overhead monitors. Drove me nuts.
Blockbuster has online customer service that answers within 24 hours. BB has new releases 28 days before NR or redbox. BB rents online games. You can trade mail movies and games, for instore ones. BB trades scratched diskst right away at your neartest BB. With the right device you can stream new movies with BB. As a NF subscriber I can fairly say that BB outshines NF. I keep NF for convenience, there are no new movies on NF, and the TV shows are segmented. Why R people happy accepting crap?
Wow! Out of business!

@Kailey338 Yeah i know. Like a year ago, the store Fox Video closed down, and now blockbuster, its all because of stupid Netflix.

@iLikeRandomVids and also probably because of those redbox dvd rentals, those dvd rentals you find like at walmarts.
