Let's just call this a culture clash and be done with it 

We all hope he is ok and that's the main thing.

I hope that everything's fine on his life, but on the other hand I don't miss him a bit. He caused problems and bad blood in these forums for 10 years and now that this have stopped I won't complain a bit. He should have been permanently banned many many years ago. But again, I hope he is well.

but I have noticed over the months how boring and bland this forum has become .. Somedays  I check in and look to see who is here ( by monitoring the forum tab- looking to the bottom of page) .. and see I am the only one here .. 
The movies have become mundane and boring as well as most of us these days are not buying a lot of new titles .. and.... we are watching a Lot of streaming videos therefore not purchasing the hard copy first and thus striking that title off the wish list ... DVD's and Blu ray sales ( including paid theater admissions)  are slowing down and will eventually, maybe,  drop from site ..

maybe Skip has seen this?  and jumped to a new ship of fools .......

I'm not sure that is a general case. In fact I don't know. What I'm sure is that I never watched any movie on streaming video, and never bought more DVDs+Blu-rays in one year than I did in 2011.

In my area of Canada all the Blockbuster and Rogers Video store are closing down... only a few mom and pop shop are still open .. I guess it must be a Canadian thing .. \\

Are all the Major Blockbuster and whatever else still up and running in your area or neighborhood??..

if not let us know.. why is this.. ?  Can't be streaming videos as I have now had 3  members here saying likewise...

All the Blockbusters/Hollywood Video stores have closed in my area...not that it matters to me as I rarely used tham anyway.  If I want to watch a film, I buy it.  I just started using Netflix, last month, but only to watch ST: Voyager.  I have never had the desire to stream a movie.

Yeah... they are mostly all closed around me too.

But do have those redboxes popping up all over the place!

Did a cable on-demand movie for my son once when he was sick, and streamed 1 free show from Amazon for myself, but have $7 or so credit there for over a year and no plans to use it.

Not me, I don't watch streaming video (I don't even download the digital copy when I've a code for it). I don't buy as much as would like too, but I buy everything I watch (no renting, no theatre and no download for me).

Supporting the labels is more important for me than saving a couple of bucks, anyway I'm friend with many label owners and I'm always there to help a friend when he need me.

they were never successfull in my area, here it's small store all the way and everytime a big one did try to open it was a failure...
