Blockbuster Video Sparks Comeback Speculation with Live Website
TL;DR
Blockbuster Video has relaunched its online presence with a mysterious website featuring its iconic blue and yellow logo and the phrase "We are working on rewinding your movie." Fans of the 20th-century chain have taken to Twitter to express their excitement about a possible comeback. Blockbuster filed for bankruptcy in 2010 due to the rise of streaming services like Netflix. The last Blockbuster store still operates in Bend, Oregon, and has become a popular tourist attraction. The parent company, Dish Network, has not commented on the website's launch.
