      Blockbuster Video quite! The more I come back to 90s/early 2000s related media the more I absolutely abhor the current state of today’s... just about, everything, about, everything in every way. I could care infinitely less about the advances we’ve made. I just know that during that time period, the world was truly so magical that EVEN COMMERCIALS radiated with that exact same energy. Evil was a hell of a lot less present in every way. We were all closer to one another. Now with all the advances we’ve made, we’ve become miserably more and more isolated with every single year. The very last drop of that magic had died in 2009, and I felt it. I knew in my heart that things were only just getting started.

    I remember renting games at Blockbuster Video. I also had one of those unlimited rental passes a couple times and i would go to my local Blockbuster every day to pick up a game. Since I had more than one console later on, now I had access to other games. Talk about "wow, what a difference!"

    The blockbuster near me was really cool because it had a giant blockbuster sign/ticket on the building. It has dark blue carpet with stars and film tape on it. All the tape containers were empty until you went to the counter to rent them. If you didn't rewind, they charged you! And my sister and I would fight over who got to put the tape in the return drop box!
