Blockbuster nostalgia is weird. They had the worst selection, worst prices, terrible vibes and their late fees could legitimately bankrupt you. Back in the day they were universally hated, you went there if you had to. F tier experience. Local mom and pops were slightly better but it's rare that people actually hung out at one of thee kinds of places unless you knew an employee. Big cities had some exceptions (I Luv Video in Austin) but mostly 90s style video rental places going away is fine and dandy.

most nostalgia of this nature is simply longing for being the (much) younger person you were at the time of your memory

yeah, a lot of it is that but some of it is real. many things about the 90s were extremely different and better than now but this one isn't at all.
