These 7 Carl & Ray Blockbuster Video commercials are my favorite from the Carl & Ray adventure campaign. Blockbuster’s Carl & Ray commercials ran throughout 2002 — 2003. I love Carl & Ray’s cuteness & zaniness. Tippett Studio created the furry Blockbuster Video characters. (The audio isn’t the best. However, should suffice. Sorry.)

I remember them canceling that unlimited rentals in stores after about 6 months and replacing it with the 2 dvds out at a time plan by mail. people were pist I was their renting a game when the worker told a customer they had to pay full price for their movies or signed up for the by mail plan.!
loading...
That and their own greed was their downfall. they could have had all older movies for 0.99¢ for 2 days rentals and beaten Redbox at their own game but they still wanted to charge $3.99 and in a Recession too. also there’s alot of Movies Redbox and Netflixs don’t have Grandma’s Boy, The Invasion ( The 2006 remake of Invasion of the body snatchers ) Stay Alive, The Mist, ect. but Netflix does have alot of TV show and Documentaries..!
loading...
if they were to make a movie about them, I’d watch it (=
loading...
i miss blockbuster :’( D:
loading...
You hit the nail on the head. .
loading...
thats why blockbuster when out of business, they stopped airing these commercials.
loading...
“I specifically asked FOR GREEN!” Absolutely my favorite commercial from that year.
loading...
ray hampster is angel tsourchas

You are wrong. Blockbuster closed due to Blockbuster Americas debt being transferred to Canada and then Blockbuster America allowing Canada to sink after Dishnetwork purchased them.
loading...
R.I.P blockbuster
dammit, i should of kept that game rental…
loading...
Sorry, don’t have that commercial. I’m not sure where you can see it,
loading...
do you have the blockbuster commercial where the big brother beats his little brother in a game and he trains by renting the game from blockbuster and beat him and he brings him around the mall dressed as a baby?
loading...
IF ANYONE HAS A FACEBOOK I MADE A PAGE FOR THERES GUYS ITS CALLED CARL & AND RAY!!!
loading...
ohhhh okay , thanks (:

Blockbuster started with VHS [Videocasette] sales and rentals. VHS was replaced by DVD. Blockbuster cannot compete in the DVD market with Super Stores selling DVDs cheaply. Now the DVD format is on the decline due to TV’s “Video on demand” and smart phones. You can now watch a movie without all the hassle of leaving your special area — home, car, property. .

why is block buster closing ?
i remember when i was little , me and my brother would go rent alot of horror movies and buy ALL the junk food we could , lol . some time’s , they’d even have some stuffed animal’s and i’d get one (:

loading...
Thumbs up for piracy
loading...
Redbox.
loading...
I miss renting games. Plus just going there with someone having fun renting a movie. I live in Florida and I already miss it. Waiting in those long lines for thee red box sucks ass, then all the pressure choosing a movie quikly duee to dozens of people behind me.
loading...
I only liked blockbuster for being able to rent games ):
loading...
loading...
Im from the UK and i work at blockbuster over here its still going strong, Netflix has just come over here the problem with it is the lack of choice available also blockbuster rents games
5 of our British pounds gets you any new game for 5 nights and unless its the likes of skyrim you can finish it in that amount of time sure beats paying 35-40 for a new game 
we also make a ton of cash from preowned games we pay naff all for them then sell them or rent them 
loading...
i use thepiratebay
and tv-links lol
In Australia we dont get things like netflix or hulu… so we gotta torrent…
or pay $7 for 48hr rental of a movie…. or buy it for 20$ >.>
and people wonder why Australians pirate everything…
loading...
ya know im gonna miss going to movie rental stores finding a few movies and going home excitingly to watch it
loading...
Bob Dylan.
How do I get my movies? Any which way I can. An odd method that works better than you might think is looking it up on YouTube. A lot of movies can be found here, not just old, obscure, and unpopular ones.
loading...
Blockbuster is still open in England..

How can I look inside a store on the internet?
specially CD Warehouse in Ottawa, Canada on Clyde I tried street views on google maps it won’t let me through the doors stupid internet. I really need to see what it’s look like in 2012. I haven’t been there since 2000. Specially where people listen to new releases with the headphones.
The internet and blackberry are making people lazy to leave the house it’s too hard sorry.
Get off your lazyballs hurry up I mean it
loading...
It is sad it is shutting down but im still kind oh happy. Because my aunt works there and she gave us a really big discount and every game movie cost 1 dollar to 3 dollars
loading...
Arested yet?
loading...
I don´t remember the las time a went to a Blockbuster :S
loading...
And get arrested.
loading...
I use veetle.com, amazing site with loads of free movies and tv shows. Netflix on the other hand, in Canada sucks, it doesn’t have anything good to watch and the shows it does have are a season or two behind.
loading...
who need blockbuster or next while you got internet i can get any new movie for free
loading...
there stocks are worth 15 cents
loading...
I remember time like that they were fun I loved watching those movies
loading...
Man, I miss going to the local Hollywood Video store with my parents and siblings. Lots of happy memories of driving there and picking out a VHS (DVD later on) for our usual movie nights. It was a sad day when I found out it was closing. Sure, Netflix and cable is convenient but it is certainly not as satisfying as going to the rental store in person. BTW, Netflix SUCKS unless you have amazing internet.
loading...
I’m not at all surprised. When I was very young my family rented movies at a Blockbuster at Bathurst and Eglinton in Toronto. Now most of our rented movies come from Videoflicks, a non franchise video rental store on Avenue Road. Also many Rogers Plus stores allow you to rent movies. We rent there sometimes. They’re doing ok. There must be something else about Blockbuster that resulted in its fail.
loading...
So that’s why the blockbuster in my town closed down :O
