Cinemassacre's Rental Reviews showed a clip of this video in their episode posted tonight, I found you through that. Well done! I'm subscribed and looking forward to more. Edit: lol I just saw that Tony commented on it as well :)

This is going to blow up among a very niche crowd who’s fascinated by the downfall of brick and mortar.

Just saw this in the Cinemassacre video on weird cover art and have to say, Hack the Movies has good taste in small youtube content

We used to go to two stores on weekends - the local blockbuster for the new releases or video games, and the local mom n pop for weekly rentals.
