By Tanya
Everyone who grew up in the 80s and 90s knows that Blockbuster was the coolest place in the world. Every opportunity you'd get, you'd rush down to the video store to search the aisles for your new favorite movie. You'd always check the new releases first, and if nothing sparked your curiosity, you'd head over to the older movies and search until something looked fun.

Seeing What Blockbuster Stores Have Become Will Make You Miss Your Favorite Video Store

By Tanya
Blockbuster was one of the biggest companies of the 90s, but where are they now? Pretty much nowhere. Well, there are still a few rogue locations open here and there, but most are closed forever. When they closed, a lot of people felt a little bit nostalgic for the simpler times, but none of them really actually want to go back.
