Seriously, can you guys think of a more brain-dead, effortless way to snag a DVD?

Sure, just swipe one from a Blockbuster. But even that’s too much work...😁

It’s just some random DVD—honestly, the movie on it looks pretty mediocre anyway...
That disc was originally featured on CNN, so they probably have a massive surplus of unsold copies lying around and are just giving them away now... regardless, there is absolutely no way I'm going out of my way for that.

storytelj said:The theater at Notre Dame and the one on Ibler is actually the same company—it’s such a headache dealing with AMC Theatres when their movie lineup is identical to everyone else's, even though an AMC Theatres location can rotate up to 15 different titles in a single day..

Actually, that's incorrect; they *used* to be the same company, but back then Broadway sold off the auditorium to a new owner who runs things now. Since they're basically the second-largest cinema chain in America (not sure if any of the AMC Theatres locations are larger), they could really step up their marketing game—and maybe fire that colorblind designer responsible for that tacky, kitschy logo.

Still, they do have one of the best cinema websites in the US, plus they offer online ticket booking just like AMC Theatres...

So, I picked up this DVD and gave it to a friend—it’s "Chicago," so honestly, I couldn't care less about the movie itself. But man, what a total disaster. We get there, I buy my ticket, and then I ask what kind of special perks they have for couples, only for the woman behind the counter to shove the DVD in my face. Absolutely ridiculous. 😁

Didn't realize you were joined at the hip with her.

Jose Miller17 said:I swear, I’m boycotting their ads and those cheap, flimsy DVDs too—total elitists... honestly! They give gifts to all these cute little couples... how "romantic," right? As if being in love isn't enough! As if they don't have enough going on by seeing each other every day, or having to deal with someone whispering plot spoilers in their ear during a movie at AMC Theatres... but no, we just HAVE to reward them because they're such pathetic lovers. What’s next? Are they gonna start handing out gifts to people who just got dumped? Or maybe for the lonely folks? For the broke ones? For the people who dressed poorly today? Nah, the elitists won't do that, obviously... because apparently, just being single isn't bad enough—you have to rot in hell, too! No gifts for them... only for the lovebirds. Next thing you know, there'll be a campaign called "We're Loaded," or "My Dad is a Billionaire," or "I Have Everything in Life"...
...
Oh, and what gift? Chicago... man, that sounds genius... I’d practically dump my girlfriend if they shoved that into my hands right now!

What’s all the drama about?
It’s honestly ridiculous for a nation that’s willing to stand in line for six hours just for a bowl of chili. I’m not even a fan of the stuff, but I’m not passing up a chance to grab a DVD... you play the "I'm here with my girlfriend" card and boom, you get the disc. It's way easier to explain to her dad that you're actually on a date rather than just talking to some cashier who couldn't care less about you. I'll go get that DVD even if it means getting stuck in a mess in Chicago.

I’ve decided to head out with a friend to see if 'Love is Love' is actually worth the hype...

I wonder if they'll give us a little something special since we're a couple...😁

But honestly, it’s just not quite hitting the mark... if you’re going to film a doc about a relationship involving someone of the same gender, there really ought to be a significant age gap involved—say, at least thirty years—just so we can capture the sheer look of shock on the cashier's face when they see them walking up to the register 😲

Ava Gardner said:What's the harm in getting a DVD? 😁

So, who's actually gonna fall for me? 😁

If we land Kate & Leopold or any flick starring Meg Ryan, I'm handing it straight to him. 🙄 If we actually get a movie like Luck be a lady. Not likely though. It is Valentine's Day after all...

Congrats.👍 Let's talk about honesty, bitch. (Just me playing Richie Rich.)

I'll admit it, I’d probably feel like a total loser owning an original DVD. It'd be one of those rare pieces in my collection. Hell, I'm broke. Most of my discs are just straight-up bootlegs from a street vendor.

Thank God there are still some moralizing posers around here who wouldn't know a real classic if it hit them in the face—people who own actual originals and Pikachu, yet act like they'd never touch a damn movie.

That Pikachu guy? Please, you mean the guy who didn't even touch an original canvas in his life—he was nothing but a glorified copier.😎
