Oh, man.
>Blockbuster
If you were an autistic wanker with no friends and no knowledge on how to MAKE friends, it was like a "home away from home". You could spend literally hours browsing the aisles, reading the back-cover descriptions of movies you may never get around to watching, or marvel at the graphic special effects they would use for "teaser" back-covers for horror flicks.
If you were a REAL spergtard like I am, it would go even further than that. Here in Australia, we have classification ratings that would roughly describe what it is that made the classification of a film what it was, and not much delighted me more than to see something like the box-art for Peter Jackson's gory masterpiece Brain Dead (1992) and nearly squeal like a giddy, teenaged schoolgirl with glee, when I find that it's rated "R18+ (restricted to adults over the age of 18) with High Level Violence and Horror Themes".
My local Video Flicks, which later became Blockbuster, provided me with some of the best memories of my otherwise disgustingly-pitiable life.

can i trade my snack and my soda for a kino?
I miss video stores. I realize that I hate having such easy access to movies now because it takes all the magic out of it. Walking through blockbuster, seeing all the VHS/DVD boxes, asking the cashier what's good right now, then taking it home to watch with a friend was all part of the experience.
There is no magic scrolling through torrrents or Netflix.
Anyone feel the same way?

They have a better selection, it's free, and they actually bother replacing damaged discs.

Your library had free film rentals? My local one charged but they had an awful selection. Only rented Kung Pow from there.
Block Buster was mostly for vidya for my brothers and I. Sometimes we'd get a film or two as well. Cycling there in the afternoon was my favourite. Although it was fun when my dad took us and we'd be able to read the cover and game manuals on the way home.

Pirates 1 was the most expensive porno ever. I watched it. It's actually really good. If you take the porn out, it's a cheesy B-movie.
Pirates 2 had better sex scenes, Sasha Grey actually climaxes for real during her lesbian one, instead of faking it. Again, if you took out the porn, good stuff on it's on.
>that Summer when Dad rented the megadrive for an entire week
>>68891567
Pirates 2 had ten times the budget of Pirates 1, friend. And yeah, the sex scenes are better, especially because they keep the extended cuts for the blu-ray/DVD, whereas in Pirates 1 we only get the really short ADD-edited versions.
>>68891567
I know what I'm downloading for my Friday night.
>>68891745
It had 8 times the budget
>>68891831
You should also watch Camp Cuddly Pines Powertool Massacre, it's a hilarious send-up of horror movies that just happens to have hardcore sex in it.

I know studios, directors, history, etc. Not sure why I take porn so seriously, but I've been doing it for years. I even listen to audio commentaries and watch behind-the-scenes featurettes, what's wrong with me bros?

There are plenty of adult films better than Pirates

That's fine.
I found a Pirates 2 blu-ray at the local video store, worth picking up for $20?
I was thinking of trading in my old VHS tapes for it if it's any good.
>>68892332
It's good, and really hot. Make sure it's the XXX version though
>>68885076
Oh boy, I cant wait!
>>68891831
It's a good watch. The lesbian scene in that tavern is hilarious.
>>68891745
Yeah. Was it 1 or 2 with the candles in the ass thing? Think it was 2. It was a cool story as well. Makes the porn better. Same actors did the Witcher parody porn.
>>68890328
Break in homie, take everything.
>>68892332
I know this is really sad to say... but you won't get much of the plot if you don't watch the first one.
But if you want it for a fap, it's high quality stuff. They forked out a lot for sets and shit.

I mean it's a cheesy 'story' and isn't much of it. But you understand shit a bit better and that makes the porn better. For me, anyway.

>>68885076
my parents never got snacks or soda from Blockbuster. Dude, why would you? I can't remember, but did they have milkduds? Because I could go for that.
We usually had soda and popcorn at home tho.
>>68892697
I've always thought story makes porn hotter. When there's context, it creates a fantasy where characters are having hot sex, whereas when there is no context it's just a bunch of gross sluts getting pounded, about as sexy as watching insects eating roadkill.

I mean, no doubt I plow through entire directors filmographies by just downloading the memory of watching it to my brain, but there was something different about ACTUALLY watching it, amirite guise?
10's kids feels thread, I guess?
>>68893050
So there isn't a parody? That's odd as fuck. Sorry anon.
>>68892957
THIS. The fight scenes in Pirates 1 are funny as fuck. They even use fucking CGI.

>[Stone stabs it with sword]
>[Sword gets stuck in skeleton and he doesn't die, skeleton looks at it then back to Stone]

It was hilarious simply cause it was a porn film but it had comedy. Dunno who wrote it but simple shit like that in porn makes the sex better. Full of 70's/80's jokes, like the cannon exploding black powder into the Asian guys face.
I can't remember the Pirates 2 story thou.

Honestly, there aren't any actual kids who think this. That film is the exclusive domain of grown man-children breathing in early 90s comic book nostalgia laughing gas.

My 10 year old son said this to me. This post was based on a true story.
