I’m going to be honest when I say that I was not looking to
this blog at all when I heard I had to walk across campus to check out this mom
and pop movie store called The Movie Fan,
little did I know that this place would actually be a pretty cool. I do have my
fair share of movie stores back in the AH, but none of them have the same feel
as The Movie Fan does. Walking in at
first was complete madness. There are movie posters, VHS, and DVDs everywhere.
I felt like I could have been looking around for hours, but I actually had some
important things to do. The thing that I regret the most is that I forgot to
bring my wallet. Another thing that I thought was really cool was that the person
working there seemed like a really nice person. I didn’t personally get a
chance to talk to him, but I did see him willingly helping the other people in
the store. And this is the perfect movie store for a college campus because
their prices are so low. But I think if The
Movie Fan were to be in a town that did not have a university in it, I think
that it would fail. I’m not too happy to say that, but it’s true. With On-Demand
movies being the next big thing in movie rentals, all the small mom and pop
movie stores will be gone in the up in coming years. The Movie Fan might have low prices, but On-Demand also has relatively
low prices, with no late fees, and you don’t have to drive to a store to pick
it up and drop it off. But when it comes to The
Movie Fan, I have definitely become a fan. (You don’t have to compliment me
on my awesome word play)

I agree I could have looked around the store for hours if it was not for my friends who wanted to leave. I also noticed you forgot your wallet, I did the same thing and was dissapointed I could not rent a movie

I wish there were more places like this around us becasue I loved the feel of it but I agree it probably wouldn't be long before it failed. The fact that the guy was super nice and willing to help anyone really did add to the family feel of the store.
