I'll take a Rock Band with my Snickers [photo]
Savant | 9:10 AM on 01.24.2008 24 comments




The above photo was taken last night using my cell phone at a local Blockbuster Video. I was there to return Clerks and rent Mallrats when I took a look at the candy aisle. Granted, I had done this many times before, but something just didn't seem right...

They're friggin' selling Rock Band in the candy aisle these days? Are you fucking kidding me?

Need I say anymore? Discuss.

Blockbuster must be getting desperate to reach that younger demographic.
Kryptinite's Destructoid Blog
I'm just going to throw this out there and maybe I'm the only one who feels this way but...

FUCK SNO CAPS!!

That is all.
Samit Sarkar's Destructoid Blog
No mere candy rack can hold Rock Band!

It kinda makes sense...the rest of the stuff is the kind of junk you’d consume while playing the game...
Scape's Destructoid Blog
Damn your blockbuster is huge.
BluDesign's Destructoid Blog
Rent? Why are you renting Mallrats and Clerks? People should own those two movies, never rent them.
Aziel13's Destructoid Blog

Kryptinite's Destructoid Blog

UMF Skibum's Destructoid Blog

DJDuffy 's Destructoid Blog

Knives's Destructoid Blog
I waaaaaant candy.

It does look out of place, maybe that was the only space they had available.
tsunamikitsune's Destructoid Blog
@dvddesign

Good point! I didn't even think about that.

I don't even buy movies and I own Mallrats and Clerks (all the Kevin Smith movies, actually).

I've been gaming ever since I could pick up a controller at the age of 3.
