I just got to say bro I love this style of distressed VHS video ! And if you're really into the visuals and iconography of all of these videos , if you ever find yourself in Las Vegas I strongly suggest you going to a bar called " The Double Down Saloon " !!! The owner , 'Moss', has got a bunch of CRT TVs hanging from the ceiling playing his own variety of essentially the same thing ! Just with more of a classic campy horror movie and punk rock twist to it 🖤 !

I miss video stores :( they were such a magical part of childhood like a jungle of pictures and colours all lined up on the shelf with music playing on rattly speakers.

Arnold in “The Terminator” was the very first movie I rented at Block Buster to watch on my brand new $350 VHS player. A tradition continued for many many years.

I dimly remember the first video store opening in my town, and I vividly remember the last one closing. A whole industry rose and fell within the span of about 30 years. There was something charming about going out and getting a movie. Today's streaming media, sure it's convenient but it doesn't feel special.

Omg really? I am from the late 90's/2k boom of the internet, and at no point did I hear anyone refer to webpages as "the wall". Guess it was just slang down in america.

Anything 90's almost make me wanna cry. Such a time to be alive used to go the video store with my mother. I remember how over priced Blockbuster seemed. So going there renting and getting snacks felt like a special occasion.

While watching this the first time around it got me all nostalgic for my Orion TV/VCR combo that I used to make all sorts of smashed tapes of various movies and music videos back in the mid 90's ! At which point whale watching the video I started looking on eBay and lo and behold I found my old girl 😍 ! Think I'm going to buy her thanks to you , now time to watch your video again ❤🍻 !

In the late 80s early 90s when I was a youngin' We had a Curtis Mathes store that would let you take out games and movies and pay for them when you returned them. It's madness to think about now. I remember renting a Super Nintendo there when I was about 11 with my Birthday money. Jurassic Park and Clayfighter sold the Snes for me. It costed $60.00 for the weekend. Bittersweet Nostalgia for gimmicky consumerism. What the hell happened?

*sigh* I really wish I could go back to this world...for a great number of reasons. And not all of them are for depressing reasons, either! Some shit was just nice to have around and I miss it now that it's not! Maybe I should try to bring back rental stores...I'd include everything, not just DVDs and VHS. And you better believe I won't forget the candy.

I miss the good ole days of going to the video store. I do not miss Bankbuster video and late fees. I’m glad they laughed at Netflix when offered to buy them for 5 million and Blockbuster video is corporate. Cronies laughed at them, literally refused. I think that would save a little over $1 billion last year kicking yourself in the ass much for that one someone is.
