actually, PTA films do make tons of money in rentals---magnolia made more than it did in stores than in theatres.  films with more awards tend to be more popular at rental stores.


So let's all pray that PDL will be a HIT in rentals :P I doubt that, well... maybe the few losers - the general BOXOFFICE audience, let me rephrase: 75% of the people - that rent at blockbuster see the name of Adam on the cover and think its a nice one to rent....


I work at Hollywood Video (SO MUCH NICER (PEOPLE-WISE) THAN BLOCKBUSTER) and I can promise you that, on its first week at least, PDL will be out of stock.

The next week everyone (except for...4 or 5 regulars) will complain that I gave them a bum recomendation.

They will then go and watch fucking Master of Disguise or Halloween Ressurection to settle the score. Bastards.

Lieberman, too.  I'm hoping he doesn't get the Democrats nomination, because on the off-chance he might win, I just wouldn't be able to deal with the deluge of PG-rated films that would be the end-result.

Yeah... no shit.  I get upset when I hear about his problem with sex in films.  Why is that an issue that's any of his concern?

That's first lady shit.

 :lol:   I did the same thing with Magnolia at Blockbuster. I would walk around the store with a "let me recommend a movie to you" face, and people would always ask for recommendations. I figured that even if they hated the movie, it would open their minds a little. One couple was really mad at me for recommending it, cause they started watching it with their kids, and apparently the opening sex scenes didn't go over too well.

I've thought about working at Hollywood... just curious, how corporate are they? When I was at Blockbuster, I could feel them getting more and more corporate, and it hurts... (or mabye I was just starting to notice it). They made me sell DirecTV, and gave me a quota... I hated that... Blockbuster deserves to be boycotted by everyone...

Yeah, I always warn about the cuss words, and that they may hate it, but it's an experience no matter what.

Hollywood is very much less corporate. If Blockbuster is the bully who wants your lunch money, we're the new, smooth guy, from out of town, who lets you pay off later (and we have ALL 5 day rentals) :).

No, really, I don't know about the other stores, but the oldest person at my store is the manager: she is 21. So we're all pretty young minded and are all friends, it's very cool and I always have fun. Join the team!

Heh.

Whenever I get that look on my face, people run.  Maybe because it's so close to my "hey, little girl, would you like some candy" face.

I think if they sit their kids down in front of an R-rated movie, they lose the right to complain about what they see.

Little Billy: "RESPECT THE COCK!"
Little Timmy: "TAME THE CUNT!"
Billy: "Respect the COCK!"
Timmy: "TAME THE CUNT!"

Mom comes in and breaks the two fighting children up.

MOM: "Billy, Timmy!  Stop it now, Mommy's trying to drink... ugh... that's the last time I let Blockbuster raise my children"

Mom walks away, Billy turns to Timmy.

Billy: "What's wrong with her?"
Timmy: "I don't know, probably has an ass in her cock"

I can really see PTA doing a period piece next. He has a thing for doing the opposite to what he just did and the possibility of period piece next seems very likely to me.

What exactly do you mean by opposite? I wouldnt say any of his films were opposites to the ones before them.
