Movies and TV Do you guys ever rent Dvd's from the library?

When i first did it i noticed most were old movies until i checked the Joco website which had most of the newer releases. You can use their website to move new dvd's from another library. Nice for me who doesn't want to go to blockbuster and pay $5bucks on an old movie or a movie that wouldn't want to spend much on like 'Cloverfield'. The '7 samarai' came in the Collectors case. Nice.

I'm on the 'place hold' for Batman Dark Knight. Have to wait for 140 people ahead of me but i'm in no rush.

I check out DVDs from my university library constantly. Over Christmas break, I checked out the complete John Adams HBO miniseries and all five seasons of the HBO show The Wire.

I do from the Jo Co library. I get cartoon DVDs for my kids and I get some for myself while I'm there.

The Dark Knight is not an older release. You are 140th in line when you could just go spend a dollar at Redbox.

I used to rent tapes from the library all the time. I stopped going when they told me about the 50 bucks in late fees I owe.

I just finished season one, about to start on season two. It's as good as I'd heard.
