Blockbuster's Gettin' With It

When Redbox came out I thought it was greatest thing ever. Movies for a buck! Wow!! Let's go to Redbox and get a movie!


Well, I got tired of it quick and here's why. The selection is terrible! They run out of the movies I want! You have to sit and wait while some indecisive guy picks out his movie! You wait the WAIT IN LINE TO RETURN A MOVIE! You have to go to McDonalds to get your movie! Eww, McDonalds.

I can now honestly say that I'm a Redbox hater, and so, last night, Meg and I decided to stop by Blockbuster again. We almost felt guilty. $5 for a movie when we can get one at Redbox? Who cares if it's not the one we wanted to see, it's only a dollar! But we decided to splurge last night, and so to Blockbuster we went. We drove up, parked, and I walked in to get a movie while Meg waited in the car with the Maxinator.



I noticed a big advertisement on the windows of the store that said, "Thousands of Movies for $1 a Day!" MUSIC TO MY EARS! 

That's exactly what I would've wanted to hear on my first haj back to Blockbuster. Ladies and gentleman, it's true, Blockbuster is back. There are literally THOUSANDS of movies to choose from, and you don't have to wait in line to pick out your movie. You don't have to wait in line to return your movie either. You don't have to go to McDonald's, and it truly does cost a dollar a day to rent a movie (unless it's on the "wall" and then it's $2.50 for the first day). 

If you value your time and your right to choose, DON'T GO TO REDBOX EVER AGAIN! Because you deserve to find the movie you wanted. You deserve to get your movie with DIGNITY!

Life's too short to not be passionate about things.
