The System 298: Online DVD Rental

This is how I lost 3 weeks to having “Dancer in the Dark” sitting on my TV.  How about you?  What was your movie waste?

    I stopped renting movies altogether.
    Either I go to the cinemas or I download it. Either way, if I like it I'll buy the movie on DVD or BluRay. If not, at least I didn't waste coin on the rental :p

    And yes, for now, downloading stuff is still legal in the Netherlands (although plans exist to stop that :p)

    Fomg, downloading is still legal in NL? No fair! D:

    … On the other hand, that’s basically exactly what I do, too. In Sweden. Where they’re like “NO!”.

    3 weeks of not watching "Dancer in the Dark" is probably better than the couple hours I wasted actually watching that crap.

    I've got Time Bandits sitting at about week four right now actually.

    bleh. mine was Beautiful Mind. Still have it, actually. Had it since November 2008, I believe. not as bad as it sounds, since we’ve been raping the netflix streaming queue.

    ROFLMFAO! I did the exact same thing with Dancer in the Dark. Then I finally saw it. It was pretty good.

    Oh man. On Halloween I watched my Netflix discs of Indy Jones & the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls and The Strangers, both of which had been sitting on top of my TV since mid-March.

    I believe I took Dancer in the Dark and Requiem for a Dream from the Berks to U St, because no one wanted to watch them with me. Then I took Trainspotting from U St to VA. Then I gave up on Netflix.

    I just rip movies onto my computer and send them back. Then it doesn't matter if I don't get around to them for months.

    Time Bandits is AWESOME! Brazil is and Adventures of Baron Von Munchausen is too!
