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.

you ever use the dvd service they launched in their twilight years to try to suddenly catch up with netflix?

i'm sure they made no money off it as it had no late fees and you could return discs whenever by just dropping it off at one of their retail stores, all at like half the price of the netflix subscription

didn't feel any remorse keeping dvds for months while watching them go under 🤣
