Blockbuster went Bankrupt?

They're getting bankruptcy protection. Blockbuster provides a lot of jobs across the USA and Canada, and if it were to close...

I promise you'll be disappointed.

All I know is that all the Blockbusters in the city that I live in closed over a year ago.

Throwback to my cringey emo phase.

Blockbuster's closing it's stores to provide a netflix-style experience.

Goodbye my only friend. Oh, did you think I meant you?

Noooooooooo..... Netflix and like-things are crappy and I like being able to go into a store and feel the cases and look at them and pick a freaking movie and buy or rent it and bring it home and put said movie in the appropriate player, and watch it. If I wanted a file of the movie I'd just download it free of charge, which I hardly ever do unless it's some rare movie that doesn't even exist in my country on DVD or VHS since I physical copies of things. Screw this I'm going back to the 80's.

I WARNED YOU ABOUT STAIRS, BRO!

Blockbuster has BEEN closed all over.

Former BBmin and Gamemin.

I agree with Neongirlx.

No, they're still making money where I am. :) Hehe.

Shadow562, it's not necessarily the economy with the stock market. It's a matter of advancing technology.

Na na na na na na na na na - BanMan!

Wait, I just read the article and it says SOME are closing, but not all.. pfft I got upset over nothing. My blockbuster is still opened I'm pretty sure.

I WARNED YOU ABOUT STAIRS, BRO!

Mine closed down. Time for NetFlix and On Demand...

Communism: You have more water, everyone has more water!

I prefer going somewhere manually to buy or rent movies, technology is getting ahead of me...
But the irony is I'm on a iPad right now xD

I promise you'll be disappointed.

Yes. CAUSE OF NETFLIX >:O

I loves me some Quesadillas.

We have Xtravision over here...I've heard of Blockbuster though, I think we might have had one back in '05 but it closed down.

I recently got Netflix for Wii, and I have only one thing to say. Screw you Blockbuster. Unlimited movies from a lot more variety, and a monthly fee less than $10.00. That's heaven.

I put the fun in dysfunctional.

Aw blockbuster here is closing down after september </3 )': My mom went and bought a bunch of movies and a game since they're having a sale.. Also blockbuster's deals are better than netflix, they don't charge extra for blurays(like netflix does), they have games(which netflix doesn't have) and you can(well, could) exchange them at the blockbuster store, too instead of waiting for the mail. Whatevaa, netflix is just going to jack up their prices once they're the only game in town. :*

I WARNED YOU ABOUT STAIRS, BRO!

Because of Red Box.

The breaking dawn came rawring in as i fall asleep through a deep night slumber, the moon gazes into my eyes, the sun arises

I still owe them a few movies.:C

Xtravision & Chartbusters FTW. -w-
We had Blockbusters in '06-ish but it didn't do well...

People say DisneyLand's the best place in the world, they've clearly never been in your arms (B

We still have a Blockbuster in our city, and it&apos;s doing fine. Even if it&apos;s jammed between Wal Mart and Game Stop. But it's the only movie/game renting place left. Personally, I'm more upset at Borders closing

memento mori if the nineth lion ate the sun

I believe the reason is of the online sharing movie websites, like Netflix, Crackle, and VUDU.
