Redbox Is Dead, But The Machines Are Kind Of Hanging On
https://hackaday.com/2024/10/17/redbox-is-dead-but-the-machines-are-kind-of-hanging-on/
I'm not surprised that red box failed, The movie making side of Hollywood moved on to produce mostly superhero films that, I and many others, have grown tired of. After Marvel fucked up Spider-Man 3 with Tobey Maguire so much and so much studio meddling too many hands in the pot and trying to weave too many villains into one film and fucking up Spider-Man and Mary Janes relationship I bailed on the whole thing as I took it all as a sign of things to come from Marvel Studios.
They ruined it, Oh and the comic fans agree with me.
The director got shafted too by too many hands interfering with his project.
So I look at this whole Redbox thing, and it's like you know why Netflix and others are crushing this bullshit into dust?
There's never going to be a wide enough selection inside a Kiosk like that.
and the thing I hated about those damn things is my mom refused to accept that her taste in films was now far enough outside the mainstream that a snowball had a greater chance of surviving a year in hell than she did of finding something to watch in a red box machine.
But she insisted on being proven wrong and checking the damn thing yielding to a complete and total waste of my time.
Good riddance to them. Mainstream films these days are dogshit tier.
