Wait, what happened to Blockbuster? 

You know, I’m loving these shorter format business stories. Deffo binge worthy, keep them coming.

Watching this video served as a real trip down memory lane! I remember I would go with my parents every Friday and whilst they were busy trying to pick out a film to watch, I'd be hounding them to rent a PS1 game for me! The first game I ever rented from them was Gex: Enter the Gecko and I was worried about getting in trouble in case I failed to return it in time 😂Thank you for making this video... it was a real BLOCKBUSTER! (I'll see myself out)

In Ireland we actually never had a Blockbuster but Blockbuster used to run a chain over here called XTRAVISION which was essentially the same thing just with a different name. I used to remember always renting out a game for a day to try it out and then buy it if I liked it, sadly they closed in 2021, think their last store was in Swords right beside the Pavilions!

I always remember going to blockbuster after school on a Friday and arguing with my sister what film we were going to watch that night 😂😂

I think their lack of vision regarding streaming was their biggest mistake. They did finally try it, but everyone had Netflix or Amazon by then.

i used to have a blockbuster joined to a maccies!

What are your memories of Blockbuster?
