Default Movie Rentals - 07-16-2005, 03:21 PM

OMFG what a fuckin rip off...how can anyone not be part of Netflix or Blockbusters online rental shit.

So I got what was supposed to be friday the 13th pt 6 today from netflix and I open it up, sleeve says pt 6 but I open it and its fucking PT 8. mad: Well Im watching them in order so I decide wtf ill go up to blockbuster and get a membership and rent it there. fuckin took them like 20 minutes to get me signed up and for this movie that came out 19 years ago I have to pay 4 fuckin bucks for a week....WTF...I thought it would be like a fuckin dollar or some shit. you rent like 4 movies from that place and you have my monthly rental fee. what a rip off

I use netflix and pay 19 bucks a month for 3 movies at a time, unlimited per month , turn over time is like 2-3 days.

what do you use?

I don't rent. I download them... And if it's any good, then buy it.

i usually see them in theaters as they come out since i don't have to pay. But then I'll rent them from 48hr Video ($1 for two day rental) or just download them. Sometimes I'll burn them onto a DVD and watch it on my TV.

I watch them from my bed if the resolution of video is high enough for full screen.

I go to Blockbuster, but I get my rentals for free because my friend works there and gets 10 free rentals a week.

I use netflix, haven't had a problem yet. It's nice to be able to just forget about something for 2 weeks and not have any problems.
