I WANT to rent Cruel Intentions, but I worry my parents will say it's too adult for me. Also, vaguely interested in Jawbreaker and But I'm A Cheerleader, but similar concerns there. 

So, instead, I go for Big Daddy, October Sky, or Double Jeopardy, all of which the whole family can watch together without incident. I also walk past the horror section, just to see all the movies I will never, ever rent, but still feel like I need knowledge about. 

Leave with some Buncha Crunch, of course. 

Can't Hardly Wait. I'd rent it over and over and over again. Loved that movie. And if it wasn't available, probably Great Expectations or City of Angels. 

And no I was NEVER allowed to get snacks at Blockbuster. That was only for rich people!!

What are you picking up for the weekend? Are you allowed to get snacks too? 

It’s a Friday night in 1999, and you’re at Blockbuster
