You and me both! I also swear that the descriptions on the back of VHS tapes were better written and gave a good idea of if the movie was interesting. Now, descriptions on the streaming services are like 1 or 2 sentences, and frequently give zero idea of what the movie is like!

I loved going to the movie store to rent a bunch of movies for a weekend. I also miss VHS due to audio mixing was done differently then, and you didn't have the issue we have now with DVDs and streaming where dialog is quiet, so you turn it up, then gun fights and explosions are deafening, so you turn it back down again.
