Did anyone use that moviebank place? I saw people in there on occasion and wondered how it was. I guess not good since they’re out of business, but you never know.
Not sure but todays Daily News has a article on Brian and the fireworks show for the Queensboro Bridge,interesting. Didn’t that happen a week ago ? why is it in todays copy when it is now old news.
Moviebank didn’t carry enough copies of films. If you had a problem with your card, there was rarely anyone there who could help you. Good concept, but lousy execution.
There’s no need for a separate address to house a glorified vending machine. You can stick a video rental thing in any deli or supermarket.
Or Duane Reade.
#3 whats the question? Why old news is old new? I suggest you take this up with the Daily news.
#3 – In the past I’ve written for a newspaper. The answer to your question is this. The article is not considered news. It is just a local piece to fill the Queens section of the paper.

Does anyone know what they are putting into the old moviebank space on 50th ave. They’ve painted it all pink and expanded in the space.
