SBXL: Blockbuster - "Free Video"

Blockbuster has been running a slew of
spots all day promoting its in-store / online services with a guy just talking it up, and making me yawn. Over and over
again. If you ask me, I'm going to have to say that this is either a sign of too much money in the company's coffers
(doubtful) or some sort of desperation, because while this ad is still in my head, it's going to vanish because of the
fact that every other advertiser has gone all out via humor or design elements to say something about the product or
service that's being sold. Thumbs down for boredom.
