  • movie night extinction

    I brought my PS3 over to James Wang's place today to check out the 1080p goodness on his 56-inch DLP, and we decided to go rent a Blu-Ray movie to watch.  The movie that all of us (his roommates included) REALLY wanted to see?

    Resident Evil Extinction.

    So we went to the Blockbuster on Wells Branch... their one copy was rented out.

    Then we checked the Blockbuster on Parmer and Mopac.  They were out of it too.

    So we regrouped in James' living room to discuss our options.  We REALLY wanted to watch something in Blu-Ray... so we bit the bullet and said:  Let's go to Walmart or Target and just buy the friggin movie. 

    (Who cares if it costs $30, you only live once, right?  By this point we'd already wasted an hour searching for the movie...)

    So we hit Target first, since they listed it at $27... but guess what?  They were sold out.

    Our last resort was across the street at Walmart.  Surely the evil Warmart empire wouldn't be sold out, would they?

    (interestingly, the last time I stepped foot into that Walmart was when I waited in line this past January for a Wii and got shafted by the person in front of me)

    Walmart was sold out as well.

    To recap:  Resident Evil Extinction was gone at TWO Blockbusters, Target, AND Walmart. 

    Un-frikin-believable.

    So instead of enjoying the last episode of the RE Trilogy, I'm blogging about this evening's misery.  UGH!
