oohh i love treasure hunting movies!! What are your favorites??
Hmm I'll see what i can list off the top of my head:
National Treasure - i unironically adore them and will take zero criticism for this
Sahara (2005) and Fools Gold (2008) - who let Matthew McConaughey be good at treasure hunting movies? Bonus points for Sahara's "exasperated best friend who cant believe we're going down this research rabbit hole again (is along for the ride anyway)" and Fools Gold for actually showing archival research (and its a majorly important part of the plot
Does Tintin count? I'm saying it counts. I love Tintin
Indiana Jones is on thin ice because he's actually supposed to be an archaeologist....................... But its kinda fun anyway
The first The Librarian movie is pretty good, but i feel like i never really liked the sequels
Really really niche but I adored it (completely wore out my 2nd hand VideoEzy DVD that i owned of it) The Lil River Rats. I've never found anyone else who knew it existed but I love it
#thats about all i can think of off the top of my mildly sick head#believe it or not ive never seen The Mummy#at this point mostly because peoples reactions to that fact#are funnier than i imagine the movie could ever be#also as much as i despise the ''its aliens'' as a trope#i have to adore star gate#if youre in a world where aliens interact with all of human civilisation and history#10/10 thats how an archaeologist would act#''they MOVED [the artefact]'' ''think of your happy place''#I'll take suggestions for other ones if people have them though#archaeology#archaeology films#mice answers things#they let a mouse do archaeology?

We didn’t have a blockbuster in my town but we had a VideoEzy which then turned into a United Video. I grew up and live in NZ so I’m not sure if these are international companies.
Made this poll because I miss Champagne Video, my favorite video rental place. Your loss would be easier to bear if you hadn't been replaced with a waxing parlor.

So, an interesting storytime I wanna tell.. when places like VideoEzy, Blockbuster ect. were still up and running my parents use to take me and my big sister to rent movie.. we would normally get into arguments of what film we wanna bring home to watch or what game to bring home to play. One movie I ended up getting was Bratz Rock Angelz, so after we got Pizza from Eagle Boys (a discontinued pizza store, rip) and snacks..
My parents help set up the dvd player for me and my sister to watch the film in our room; once it was set up, the tv was on, pizza on a plate on the bedroom floor next to a cup of sprite.. the copyright screen appears and then it went black, and that's when I just hear loud music blaring in my ears and that PSA started playing. And I kid you not, I actually shat myself (not literally lol), like I was terrified.. and before you guys say "Just press skip!" I would but the problem was I couldn't, my sister even tried to skip because she was terrified too, finally it was over but I didn't want to watch rock angelz after that.

also no one asked but personally we never went to videoezy, we went to this independant video store near my house and we were really good friends with the owner because he worked in the shop and we went in at least once a week and it was really cheap and i have really fond memories of it and watching movies and tv shows honestly shaped who i am as a person so much, i never watched kids movies or tv shows my parents always let us watch grown up shit and im happy they did, i was legit watching horror/thrillers when i was like 9, i was so sad when he closed down and i hope he’s happy

I just had a flashback to 11 year old me renting movies from our local VideoEzy for my sleepover birthday party and legitimately telling mother dearest that we absolutely must watch the movie “What Women Want”... Oh sweet Jesus how did I not know I was that gay....

Atmospheric Adult Fiction and the Bygone Video Store: Universal Harvester
Atmospheric Adult Fiction and the Bygone Video Store: Universal Harvester
Ah, the good old video store! Blockbuster, Video2000, Civic Video, VideoEzy: for the most part they’ve all gone the way of the dinosaurs – not, thankfully, in the fiery chaos of destruction by meteorite, but nevertheless faded from consciousness, if not from the lazy person’s keyring. Universal Harvester by John Darnielle, who I first encountered through Wolf in White Van back in 2014, is…

Do you remember videorentalplaces? We sure do. We could spend hours there, reading all horror movies even though they were scary. Browsing trough Game Boy games. We found a rental place in Motueka, New Zealand. And not one of those shabby ones that's more tanning salon than videorental, but the real deal. Videoland in their glory days. We spend a good hour looking around. #videoezy #videoland #videorental #blockbuster

If there’s anything I’m really going to miss, one of them’s visiting the video rental store. There are still very few stores located here and there, but most have been shut-down (like this one here), some replaced with self-serve movie-rental kiosks. Those days were the best.
