Blockbust.

August 1, 2022 Eric Robert Nolan Leave a comment

You want to know how old I am?  I can remember when Blockbuster Video was The Next Big Thing.  It was a monolithic blue titan of a company that was gobbling up mom-and-pop video stores in whatever town it landed in.   Think of Goya’s “Saturn Devouring His Son.”

Yes … I realize that the meme below is now a bit dated, as today Netflix is infamously suffering its own problems.  It’s still funny, though.
