Know your customers: Hollywood video now offers a “Stoner Movie” Section


With the rise of On Demand video, an overall lack of new movies I have no interest in seeing *cough* and the fact that nobody I know works there any more, I have little interest in going to Hollywood Video any more. With the desolate wasteland that the area is, it’s only a matter of time before that whole corner of Cass & Grosbeck on the west side of Mount Clemens becomes a complete greyfield anyways.

But IĀ digress, I found myself there recently. Apparently, they’ve pulled out all the stops to cater to their customers (since nothing else really works) and have decided to have a wall section dedicated to movies to watch while you’re high. No doubt a large percentage of movie renters here come stumblingĀ in grabbing random comedies and popcorn, sour patch kids, etc.

The word “High” got half cut off, but you can still make it out.

So props to Hollywood Video, even if it is the direct result of stoned customers not being able to find the movies they’re looking for and the staff being completely sick of helping them. Good stuff.

For those curious, you can buy the book here and see the official New Daleville website here.

On to the review…
