I just work at a small video store. All movies are out on either Wednesdays or Thursdays for the following week. Generally, most small stores put them out first. Blockbuster and Hollywood, well, big chain, they are afraid of violating the street dates of the various studios. Small video stores, the studios do not have much interest in them I guess.
Heh...but Blockbuster is mean. This other store owner, he owns one of the franchise of ehhhhh I forgot the name of that franchise, he used to put out his new movies on Thursdays too. However, 4 blocks down, there's a Blockbuster. Blockbuster actually sent one of their employees down, signed up as a member and got the new movies. After that, Blockbuster sent a complaint to the studios. From then on, the distributor refused to let the owner get his movies on Thursdays. The movies are delivered to his store on the street date of the movies.
Well, ppl are just trying to make some money. I dun think there's a need to really for Blockbuster to do such a sneaky and devious thing.
