Don't mind me. I'm just working that pretend job in that pretend row of shops, and pretending to rent films to pretend people. As ruses go, this would be an epic undertaking! I'm quite thrilled that people are skeptical!
In all seriousness, I'd probably be the same. I've done this for twenty five years, so for me it's day-to-day normality. However, if you live in a town where the last video store took a nosedive a decade and a half ago, the concept of a rental store in 2024 probably sounds nuts!
@thedavewain That 'I am Divine' documentary is pretty good and 'Polyester' is even better. I have the old Criterion laserdisc with the (expired?) scratch n' sniff card 😅
@thedavewain Are you even real?! With all these folk questioning the reality of your store, I'm beginning to wonder. Maybe you're AI generated and this is all a giant scam?! 😱
@thedavewain Was just thinking... do you have any photos of the shop back the 90s. Could make for an interesting section for the YouTube videos. Maybe. Also, what's with the array of balloons on sale? haha
@thedavewain Nice selection there, love John Waters! You hear he's finally making another film (Liarmouth) after a 20 year hiatus.
