Blockbuster Will Close Up to 960 Stores

[iPhone 62S]

I love Blu-Ray and now going back to watching things on ordinary DVD seems pretty drab....

Blu-ray is great and all, but I already have a huge library of DVDs, and blu-rays cost more.

Plus, the main TV in my house is only capable of 720p anyway.

I still don't care for Blu-Ray. Everyone looks like they're made of plastic. It's weird and creepy-looking, and one tech thing I'll be skipping.

I haven't noticed anything like that 😕

One area where you don't want Blu Ray is porn. I've had the unfortunate pleasure of seeing that in HD...they need to stick to standard def for that.

I guess I'm the lone weirdo. It just looks hyper-real, as in not real at all.

I'm sure you can see where people have shaved and all that (razor burn, bumps, etc). That's not a good thing.

Yes. That. Sweat. Warts (hopefully not herpes). The works.

Wow this thread has derailed... 😀

Here in Dallas, Blockbuster's HQ, I haven't noticed any stores closing. But, with this news, they could be next. Most everything else is closing, no more Hollywood Video at all. We do have a fairly new Family Video though, but I haven't been there to check it out. I am starting to see the Redbox things popping up all over too.

I can't remember the last time I was in a physical video store. I get almost all of my movies online whether it be by computer, through my PS3, or using Uverse On-Demand. It's just so much more convenient. I do have fond memories of the good ole' days when I would rush out of the house at 11:45 PM in my PJ's to return a movie to the store before midnight. 😛

Fellas, fellas... I ask about children's movies and now this?!😀

My only advice, spend the money on the well made stuff. It's worth it. These low budget "bang bang" films shouldn't be allowed in HD. It's just vulgar.😉
