Today I'm here to tell you about a trend that has been sweeping Netflix- the Rental Disc. While it's not exactly new, it is getting a lot more common. Take for example, the DVD Netflix carries of Fast Five...
Wow, that's a bunch of Special Features! While I'm not exactly the biggest fan of the whole 'street racing turned heist film' series, I am at least a little curious about this. Let's check one out...
Oh, really?!? Are you kidding me?!?
To be fair, I understand that this trend is in retaliation to the amount of video piracy out there. I get it. However, this seems to be in more retaliation to the increase in video rentals and films On Demand.
We get it- you want to sell more DVDs! Thanks for screwing us for wanting to, you know, watch a movie first!

This is becoming more and more common by the week. Soon, you'll be lucky to be teased by the thoughts of extras on a rental disc. The ones without any extras screen at least don't taunt though.
ReplyDeleteThat's both sad and true, my friend.
ReplyDeleteTrue story- my brother rented 'The Change-Up' the other day and it has the option to watch it Unrated...if you buy the DVD.
Of course, as he accurately-asserted, the movie is chock full of enough nudity and sexual content in the Theatrical Version!
