One time when I was a kid I wanted to rent Robin Hood: Men in Tights but my dad didn't want to because the title sounded too gay. I didn't end up seeing it until a few years later when I watched it at a friend's house. That's my Blockbuster Video story.

I was going to write up a huge post about working there half of my life ago but will narrow it down to this story: Once I got tired of working for minimum wage I would let my friends come in and select stacks of DVDs and x-box and ps2 games. They would wait in line and eventually come to the counter and I would scan their membership card and then one of their choices (usually the cheapest) and pretend to scan the rest. We were on camera but the financial facts were not. A total came up, they paid for their singularly scanned item and got all of it in a plastic bag past the scanner and my boss always wondered, when we did inventory, how the thieves were getting away with it. Last time I drove by, 12 years later, it had been torn down and a bank had been erected in its place. Erected, lol. Cpt.Sean Luc Picard fucked around with this message at 03:54 on Aug 27, 2014 |

I liked when they made a huge media campaign out of getting rid of late fees but then they got hosed by the justice department because it was all a lie.

My friend went to blockbuster wanting to rent the blindside, the guy working their said they were all out of copies but that he could get him one if he had some time. My friend said sure, 2 hours later the guy gives him a DVD+RW with "The Blindside" written in sharpie on it. We watched it that night, watermarks repeatedly came up while we were watching warning us not to distribute copies. He tried to return it the next day, but I never heard the end of the story.

I went to one when I was a kid to get sweet n64 games, and the checkout dude accused me of stealing candy and discs when I came back to drop off my rentals and get more games. It was the only one within walking distance and the fat douche that was always there said I wasn't allowed in the store. gently caress a BB.

does anyone know of any modern movies/television that use blockbuster as a nostalgic reference of a better time i'd like to relive my years of lingering on the fitness video section like I wasn't interested in ogling women in spandex in public

I remember they had this gimmick kiosk where you could bring in you N64 Pokemon Snap cartridge and they will read it and you could print out stickers of the shots you got in the game. I did that and the guy there said I was the first person to want to use it so it took him about 25 minutes to figure the machine out. Good times. Edit: Please be kind, rewind.

Remember when Blockbuster turned away the netflix people and the nexfilx people started their own business called netflix instead?
