The blockbuster near my home turned into another videostore called “the b store” and then it got turned into a pharmacy

I miss blockbuster, my childhood with both my parents back in the early 2000’s.

Family video is still going

Am i the only one that shops at eb games?

The block buster in my neighborhood it shut down and was turned into a bouse house place the they bought the building again

I miss BlockBuster fr

Whoa...production quality just went up. Next month Charlie stars in die so hard twice 2 the reckoning with his co-star Keanu reeves

3:40

Back in August, i went to the 9/11 memorial museum over here in NYC and in one part of the museum where you can view found items left by those who had perished i found someone's old mostly burnt Blockbuster card over there.

I remember there being a Blockbuster somewhere close to me. Now it's gone.

I clearly remember renting a bee movie dvd from blockbuster and how excited I was

Ah yes, i remember when my town had a blockbuster....its a shame it went out of business, rip blockbuster Damn i feel old for saying that, and im only 18 lol

I think the earliest memory I have is from a goddamn block buster. The fondest one to, renting a movie with my dad back in simpler times. I live 2 hours away from the last blockbuster. I have a pilgrimage to go on.

There was actually two Blockbusters near each other where I live. One shut down before the other.

Anyone else remember the store Movie Gallery?

I think about BlockBuster a lot.

i miss seeing blockbuster on every third street corner

(A new challenger approaches) DISNEY+ Netflix: What the fuuuu💣💣💥💥💥💥🤯🤯🤯

I still have a block buster disc its spiderman 2

This is sad :(

I literally thought about it today. About how Netflix FUCKING DESTROYED IT.

I got to keep like 6 movies since they closed

I remember a blockbuster near the house I've lived in all my life. Went there once, went again when it became a Halloween store, and now I occasional go for pollo loco.

Yo it was gone in the US before i was even born in mexico it was gone by 2016 i think

Oof We all know what happened to Enron

Lol I live where the last blockbuster is

I’ll forever miss going to Blockbuster with my mum every Friday to rent a film/game for the weekend.

And now, a moment of silence for Blockbuster.

Pitch for Blockbuster: Basically Netflix with only new releases. ...idk if it already exists and I’m not gonna do any research but yeah... 🤷🏻‍♀️

Keep doing these ur good at em

story time animation??

im not gonna look for it now, but i still have the last vhs tape i ever rented from there... "SLC punk" starring mathew lilliard... i hate movies that constantly break the fourth wall (ferris bueller style) but i still have it in a closet for some reason... another great example is kodak - kodak invented the digital camera, and then doubled down on film... but the best brick and mortar/cyber fail paradigm was montgomery wards - they were the only game in town for mail order products in america for over a goddamned century - you could order whole houses and cars and shit through their catalog - but they were spending money on their mall stores when they could've been transforming those catalogs into a website for a fraction of the cost - they could've been Amazon...

My family was a Hollywood video/ game crazy family we got all of our games and movies there but eventually it closed and if I remember correctly it's a yoshinoya and taco Bell now lmao

Might just be one of those self conjured memory deals but i vaguely remember Blockbuster also trying to compete with Redbox for a little bit. I swear as a kid i saw a machine at a store that looked like a Redbox but was Blockbuster branded. I say it might be self conjured tho bc i kept expecting you to bring it up and you didnt.

Redbox was the true killer

Really? I went to a blockbuster 5 years ago and its still there.

We had a blockbuster for a long time in Fairbanks up until 2017 I think

Even in animation. He still has a white shirt

I think GameStop is losing money is because they don’t wanna pay a littl extra for return games and people would rather get the game online cheaper or from another place who would give more like independently ran game shops

Suck it nerds, we have the last Blockbuster on the planet here in Oregon!

How is family video still in business, it's pretty much just blockbuster but older

I never did the research, I just always assumed Redbox was the killer of block buster. I remember after Redbox started and got popular seeing Blue box? Wasnt that owned by Block Buster? Another example of them trying to copy cat an idea too late.

Partnered with Enron? Lol damn block, WTF... You were destined to lose

I still have a Netflix disc case

I prefer Hulu over Netflix tbh

i really liked netflix back in the day in 2004 or 2005 i dont remember really well, we stopped going to blockbuster forever and never went back because of netflix my dad and mom got 2 dvd's in the mail at a time and me and my sister got 2 dvds in the mail, so i just added games to the list for my dvd it was pretty sweet

There is a shop in Melbourne but hardly no one goes there anymore.

Does anyone remember Hollywood Video?

I too often think of blockbuster. As well as $1 double cheeseburgers at McDonald's (not that 2 dollar "mcdouble" bullshit with 1 piece of cheese. Like Seriously WTF)

Didnt expect this, but just got slaughtered by the feels man

I remember sneaking to the 14-18+ section to get a little peak....

At least I could rent one movie when I was young TT

In fort Wayne Indiana they have like 40 of those motherfukers now we have like 39 I don't know if it's just me but I haven't noticed the drop in my backwards state

Red Box busted em' up pretty good , too

All the people who still had games and movies rented when they shut down must have been happy

Hey you forgot to talk about how computers got fasterand much better than they were in people or just illegally downloading movies on their computers taking from Blockbuster.

I still miss Game Crazy. It was way better than Gamestop. Unfortunately it was dragged down with Hollywood Video.

I hated Blockbuster. It's the reason why my local video store, "Downtown News amd Video" closed down (Rip Downtown News and Video 1986-2003). Blockbuster felt so artificial and emotionless for a video store. I don't really see why people miss Blockbuster so much, since there still are a few local video stores left (as little as there are). So it's not like when Blockbuster died, that every video store died.

Only 22, but I definitely remember the “no more late fees” advertisements. To this day, there is a Family Video bike-riding distance from my house.
