The story of Blockbuster laughing at buying Netflix for just $50 million needs to be made into a Netflix movie.

When they tore down my local blockbuster, my dad ran over and got their movie return drop-box out of the trash and we used it as our mailbox

Blockbuster was so focused on their physical stores, that they fell behind in technology and the internet.

The fact of the video is that Blockbuster passed up a deal with Netflix in favor of a partnership with Enron, and thats just funny.

I remember going in on a Friday or Saturday to rent movies and video games.

Every Saturday morning, my mom and I would go rent 3-5 movies and just binge them all day Sunday. It was such a big deal when DVDs came out!

Kids today will never know the satisfaction of browsing through a video rental store :( I used to love going to Blockbuster as a kid, my sister and I would go down each row and talk about the movies we wanted to see and pick some to rent for the night. It was always fun, not to mention it was even better when parents allowed us to pick whatever candy we wanted to take home, and let's not forget the gumball machines!!!

I miss the Friday nights when me and my folks would go from School to Blockbuster and get 3 new movies and popcorn and drinks and just spend the night enjoying it together.

Millennials didn't grow up with CDs and DVDs? I'm a 36 year old millennial, so yeah......I did. -_-

This is what happens when you have ā€œold fashioned - traditionalā€ leaders who have no innovation and REFUSED to change.

Blockbuster: We're making so much money! Netflix: I'm about to end this mans career

I hated the fact that some games & movies would always be rented so u would have to wait weeks even months

I find it super annoying when experts refer to the Gen Z crowd as Millenials. Millenials remember a time without the internet. Gen Z does not.
