I Just Got Thrown Outta Blockbuster Video!

So I go to Blockbuster with my sister cuz she wants (okay I want also) to rent GTA3 - Vice Citty! and she has a membership (I rent at the local independent snob stores, the ones with smut flim and artbore flam). They're giving her some sort of runaround cuz she didn't have her membership card, so while they're finding her in the database (Ashcroft in the hiz-zouse!) I tell her 'see, this is why I don't rent from Blockbuster'. At this the clerk (who looked to be about forty) said he didn't need any 'flack' from me and I said I didn't need him listening in on conversations between me and my sister and he asked me to leave. So, never missing an opportunity to make an ass of my self, I refused and asked how come they ain't got no Takashi Miike and he said he was gonna call the cops (he was really belligerent!) and I said 'call 'em' and started shouting "LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST! LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST!" (they still refuse to carry it - wtf?). So, anyhow the cops never came, and my sister was embarrassed enough so we left, and I just got thrown outta Blockbuster Video.

blockbuster=bullshit
we have video vault in dc area. all the good directors are given their own section, so if you wanted to see an Antonioni film, you wouldn't have to try and remember the names of everything he ever did, you would just go to his section. magic, yes, magic, yes!

Once upon a time when I worked at a video store a man would always come or call up to complain that we didn't have the Ten Commandments w/ Charlton Heston. He said he would sue us for discrimination against christians. This was at West Coast vid, which as you know is blokbuster with porn. And then quite soon after I stopped working these masked men came in at closing time, tied the employees up, stuck them in the back room and stole like 100 bucks. And got caught soon after. Somewhere deep down I suppose I've always wanted to be tied up by ninjas and stuck in a storage room piled high with b-movies and candy, and so I think i was disappointed for having missed out on the whole affair.

I think I have saif this before, but when my friend asked in Milton Keynes Blockbuster whether they had Mall Rats she got told "No, we only stock videos that people want to see".

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 16 December 2002 11:35 (twenty-two years ago)

James, you missed the opportunity to put the Fear of God into the McJobber; nobody who works at those places is irreplaceable. Whether or not you were going to do anything with the info, you should've asked for a number for their area office to phone up and complain about his interpersonal skills (you're a customer and don't need to have any, as it goes). If it were me, I would have rung up on a mobile standing right in front of him and said my piece. Bitchy, yes, butnot done behind the guy's back.

― suzy (suzy), Monday, 16 December 2002 11:45 (twenty-two years ago)

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 16 December 2002 11:55 (twenty-two years ago)

No Nick, I just wouldn't stand for being spoken to like that by someone paid to serve me. I've worked in shops where customers have questioned/taken the piss out of/slagged off the shop and managed to hold my tongue, if you can believe it.

Right on James! I like making them get up repeatedly when they're obviously in the middle of watching a video in the shop.

― dave q, Monday, 16 December 2002 12:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Blockbuster erased my membership because I'd gone more than a month without renting from them! Then after I'd gone back home to get a couple of utility bills, you know, to join back up, they told me that I have to have a credit card in order to rent from them. COCK FARMERS

Any shop I've ever worked in (apart from indie record shops, obv) would have given me or anyone else the sack for butting into a customer's conversation like that, regardless of previous good-worker status.

― suzy (suzy), Monday, 16 December 2002 18:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Is there more than one Video Vault? I only know the one in Old Town Alexandria. Really, I'd like to find another video place that has a good selection, but that isn't so embarassing. If I'm seen there I'll be stigmatized as a person that has a Betty Page tattoo on a spindly arm, and that buys tiki stuff from some nerdy Weird Al catalog. MONDO BIZARRO

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 16 December 2002 19:26 (twenty-two years ago)

The only place anywhere near me that rents videos is the shittiest Blockbuster EVER. The foreign cinema section comprises of fifteen manga films (all of which I have seen), and everything else is a Chevy Chase movie or a cheap porn rip-off of a recent Hollywood movie. Blockbuster deserve people like you, James --this is meant as a compliment.

To you.

― suzy (suzy), Monday, 16 December 2002 21:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Blockbuster is sneaky because they have that special extra half day rental thing going on. By having movies due at noon I think more people are likely to turn them in late. AT least I am. I think, oh, that's not due back until Thursday. Then I turn it back in Thursday night and get more late fees. I have a problem getting late fees there. One time they even sent a threatening collection agency notice.

I mostly rent at a local store within walking distance to my house. But if I actually wanna see a big budget film I sometimes have to go to BLockbuster because I know they'll have a million copies of it.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 16 December 2002 21:43 (twenty-two years ago)

I fully support the Blockbuster employee right up to his wimp out of calling the police. For all the time I spent serving the idiots who drive cars, not once did I take any lip.

Remember when Blockbuster wasn't so frickin' uptight? Like, over ten years ago? I remember when my local Blockbuster, circa 1991, had a respectable (well, "respectable" might not be the right word) cult video section, full of wonderfully raunchy and disturbing videos (John Waters's Multiple Maniacs, 200 Motels, to name a few).

― Ernest P. (ernestp), Monday, 16 December 2002 23:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, I'm not going to pretend that 95% of art-films don't suck, cause they do, but I'm not even asking for that. Just a widder variety then movies that sold huge ammounts. That, and Blockbuster moves RIGHT next to mom and pop video stores and runs them out of business, which is something I dislike of course.

― David Allen, Tuesday, 17 December 2002 00:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, but mom-&-pop stores aren't so shit-hot either. There's about a dozen video stores where I live and NONE of them have any films that don't have either a) a number in the title lower than '3' b) Shannon Tweed or Lou Diamond Philips. Who rents these fucking things? Do these stores just purchase 'Straight-to-Video rejects, £5 for 10,000' from some backlot in the Midlands?

looking at the 8 year old orig. post, I mean while I think whining that Blockbuster had to look you up cuz you didn't have your membership card (ya know, which you're supposed to bring) is lame, that an employee has no business eavesdropping and telling you essentially that you have no right to criticize his store. I'm not exactly thick-skinned and yet I never lipped off like that to far worse comments that were to my face!

― funky brewster (San Te), Friday, 27 August 2010 14:59 (fifteen years ago)

I never took my card, they always looked up my details, and they never complained.

― funky brewster (San Te), Friday, 27 August 2010 15:57 (fifteen years ago)

also re: the original post, all the Blockbuster stores I worked in had both Takashi Miike films and The Last Temptation of Christ.

― mein voight-kampff (corey), Friday, 27 August 2010 16:02 (fifteen years ago)

i keep waiting for the blockbuster (aka 'cockthruster') here to die but it still seems to be going, despite a way better and cheaper mom-and-pop store across the street and a red box in the grocery store right next to it.

― joygoat, Friday, 27 August 2010 16:03 (fifteen years ago)

blockbuster (aka 'cockthruster')

that's a different thing.

― Mark G, Friday, 27 August 2010 16:05 (fifteen years ago)

In my experience, the only blockbusters that had Last Temptation of Christ were ones that had bought out an independent store and took its stock.

Grew up going to Blockbuster, and I still like the tactile sense of going in and browsing for a movie to have on the night (the problem with netflix or lovefilm for me is that sometimes I'm in the mood for something particular right then, not a day or two away, but that's minor complaint), but I've not actually been to one in a few years and it is time to put it to bed.

los angeles has a couple of fantastic rental stores that are doing well. the only time i went to blockbuster was when i couldn't find a copy of 'rapid fire' starring brandon lee and for some reason they were the only ones nearby who had it on short notice. anyway, r.i.p. blockbuster. r.i.p. brandon lee, too.

My last time at a Blockbuster was in spring '09 -- I wanted a copy of "The Wire: Season Four." It felt great to say, "I want it NOW" and to drive to the one five minutes away.

― Gucci Mane hermeneuticist (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Saturday, 28 August 2010 00:50 (fifteen years ago)

the independent place I grew up going to, the one that always got a ton of business even with a Blockbuster across the street (it had a bigger selection, esp foreign stuff as it was run by an Indian family, plus rentals were 1/2 the price and if they knew you were a reg customer they'd usu waive late fees w/in a day or two) recently closed down :(

like I said before, we are doing OK.

Blockbuster was offered an inside tip and could've gotten in on the ground floor of the Red Box phenomenon that is now renting movies with low overhead outside every grocery store known to man (at least in the US). But they didn't!

Also, Netflix!

so OTM it hurts. happened to me at least twice.

― funky brewster (San Te), Saturday, 28 August 2010 13:52 (fifteen years ago)

one time (before the late fee rule changed) I got charged $6 in late fees for 3 games, amounting to $20. This was amusing to me since I'd returned all three games on time.

Being that I'm meticulous about attention to detail, I looked at the card I got in the mail that describes my infraction, and the due date these geniuses listed for the game was exactly one day BEFORE I rented the games. Now that's funny.

That was back before I went through my consumer advocate phase so I paid it (I was in high school, I didn't know no better)....

i have one at the convenience store that's on the corner of my property. it's great if you wanna see a new release...pick it up, watch it, walk back to the convenience store, one dollar.

― Kerm, Saturday, 28 August 2010 15:22 (fifteen years ago)

weird, the redboxes i've seen always seem to be stocked entirely with straight-to-video releases (or movies sufficiently unsuccessful that they might as well be straight-to-video.) I assumed they were some attempt to monetize worthless dvd overstock rather than an actual business model.

― Guayaquil (eephus!), Sunday, 29 August 2010 03:21 (fifteen years ago)

well there IS a lot of that in there, but they have major a-list dvds, ie, they had KickAss the day it came out and stuff.

― funky brewster (San Te), Sunday, 29 August 2010 03:33 (fifteen years ago)

the redboxes near me are pretty good about stocking the bigger "indie" releases -- a single man, moon, even derrick comedy's mystery team. they also randomly had the "final broadway show" recording of rent that came out a few years back.

blockbuster 'rewards' program was a godsend for the couple of years i worked a graveyard shift (2000)(at one point my off nights were like tuesday and wednesday, so boring AND i couldnt hang out on the weekends), i would rent 3 or 4 movies a night and it worked out to no more than a buck a movie (mostly vhs, the dvd rental prices were always a nonstarter and probably why i stopped going but the rewards thing gave you a new rental on either format after every 3 rentals so it worked out really well for a while) and the (3) stores in my town are pretty good on classic/foreign etc. though it was thinning out after two years of power moviewatching. lost my card prob 5 years ago and got netflix anyway i think all those bb stores are still open here, still never seen/noticed a redbox.

Yeah, this. One opened by the house in '96, and was a godsend until it closed in 2004. Its classic and foreign film selection put Blockbuster to shame. I watched lots of RKO films that didn't come back in print until a couple of years ago: Sylvia Scarlet, Hands Across The Table, etc.

LOL re: Last Temptation of Christ. Our last BB lost it's lease and is liquidating. I picked up their LTOC for $8. While I was being rung up, two people called asking if they still had LTOC. Score! In exc. condition for an ex-rental, too. Only other Crit I saw in stock was The Life Aquatic. Pickings were pretty woeful. Maybe because I'd already bought up most of their TLA and Kino titles when they hit the $3.99 bin. Might go back one last time for Silent Light and their IFC exclusives, like Summer Hours and Puffball: The Devil's Eyeball. Anyone need a copy of the non-Crit Gommora? Or Targets? saw at least six copies of that one - totally OOP, I think.

― babytown frolics (Mr. Hal Jam), Sunday, 29 August 2010 14:38 (fifteen years ago)

I'll miss wandering through a blockbuster for half an hour with a friend, looking for something we both might enjoy, making snide comments (mini-reviews?) about every other movie we see on the shelf, and then, because we couldn't find anything that was both new and enticing to us, settling on some nostalgic classic to rent that we wouldn't watch.
