Does anywhere rent it anymore?


I can never find it anymore. For the last several years I've been trying to rent this freaking film. I used to be able to find it, but it was always out because someone else got it. Now, suddenly no one seems to carry it at all. It was popular when they had it, so why did they get rid of it? Why don't stores carry this classic picture anymore?

Well, I finally found it yesterday! I had to travel to a strange video store and the VHS I got is as old as dirt and showing the wear and tear, but I found it and I watched it. Yeah!! I should probably buy a copy for next time.

Yeah, but I wanted to RENT it. Why isn't it for RENT anymore? I did find it eventually, though.

For anyone looking to own this, Wal-Mart has it for $5. I grabbed a copy the other day.

It's not on bluray and the best way to watch it is through streaming. I got it in HD off of Vudu.

reply

I'M GLAD YOU GOT IT....BUT THE BEST WAY TO WATCH A MOVIE IS ON YOUR OWN PHYSICAL COPY...FOREVER AND EVER...AMEN.πŸ˜‰

reply

I support physical media all the way but non anamorphic dvds are pretty unwatchable today. I'd buy all the Ernest movie again if they came out in 4k.

reply

I GET IT...THINGS ARE SO PRETTY IN HD...I GREW UP WATCHING HOME RECORDED VHS TAPES THOUGH...I CAN ENJOY A MOVIE EQUALLY WELL ON ANY FORMAT DESPITE IT'S PICTURE AND SOUND QUALITY.


A FULL ERNEST BLU-RAY BOXSET WOULD BE SUPER SWEET THOUGH.

reply

I'm with you K - as long as I got power, a TV and a player, I can watch Ernest whenever I want.

ALI AND I HAVE EVERY SINGLE ONE...EVEN THE BAD ONES.
