I think people just dislike Blockbuster that much.

The independent video rental shop at the end of my road has fought a pitched battle with, as they described it, the "Lacklustre" video shop only a couple of hundred yards away -- and won. (Not altogether surprisingly, as, although I wasn't a member of either, Mr Stacey's window display consists entirely of films I want to see, whereas Blockbuster's consisted entirely of films I didn't want to see.)

When Blockbuster finally closed down, and put a giant message up in their shop window telling cardholders they could claim some minuscule reparation at the other Blockbuster in the city centre, Mr Stacey's took a photo of the closed Blockbuster, Photoshopped it, made a poster, and stuck it in their own shop window to crow (first large photo on right, some other photos on page potentially NSFW).
