I was walking on 14th street yesterday, and I passed by a few neighborhood video stores. What happened to them? It's like with the emergence of such chains as Blockbuster and Hollywood Video, all neighborhood video stores look like all they sell are hardcore porn and dildos. And please, for the love of humanity, you cannot advertise "A History of Violence, " and Jenna Jameson's new movie in the same window!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't we able to just waltz right in to our neighborhood video store several years ago? Now, we have to get buzzed in. I'm sorry, there is no reason for buzzing people in unless you are selling videos where the lead actor is Ron Jeremy. And, most of them are open 24 hours ... why? Who the hell is waking up at 3am with a hankering to go get a copy of The English Patient? No one!!
