I have got to find myself a new place to rent DVDs
First they put Greenaway' "The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and her Lover" in the Family Comedy section.
Well it is funny in a grim sort of way, but Comedy - next to "Dunstan Checks in" - it's just not working for me.
Then I walk in there and they've got Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut in the "Action" section.
And again - wtf?
Die hard, Demolition Man, Eyes Wide Shut, Terminator 2.
It's like a Sesame Street thing - One of these things just doesn't belong.
Mind you they do have a good selection of Anime, but they lump them all in together with the Animated films. So: Bambi, Toy Story, Ghost in the Shell.
Don't these people actually watch movies?

ha!! most amusing. as roshi said, who would give a fuck for the minimum wage? i think you should go and slip a few films in. Pink Flamingoes under nature documentaries / Requiem for a Dream in the music section / Cannibal Holocaust under children..........??

and "Cannibal - The Musical" under family entertainment right alongside "Orgazmo"
that would be rad.

i found "mystery train" by jim jarmusch under foreign films because it has some japanese in it, but is 90 % english,
and "midnight cowboy" in the westerns. the "blue jean video" by david bowie was in foreign films too, and "spartacus" was in musicals!
i used to tell the clerks, but no one cared. i still get a chuckle when i see such incompetance.

Btw, in China they call "Dunston Checks In" by a different title.
It's "My monkey, the butler" which makes me lol a little in my mouth.
