Whatbox? Does it come in the mail?
Hmmmm. Their selection is spotty at best, it's going to be even worse with a bajillion people going for a free flick.
You don't have Redbox in Hollywood, man??
How the heck have you never heard of Redbox??? It's what put Bob's video rental store out of business (that and Netflix).
No, I know what it is. They're outside 7-11s around here. I just don't use them and wanted to flaunt my quasi-ignorance.
