| - Thinking about Video Paradise gives me those nostalgic warm and fuzzies. Even after large big box competitors had fallen this gem continued on for over 25 years. The vast library of films were watched over by the too cool for school, sunglass wearing, pink flamingo mascot that greeted all that dared to enter into paradise. In honor of this film rental super haven bidding us a very fond farewell, here are 5 classic movie quotes to help say goodbye:
5. "I hope that when the world comes to an end, I can breathe a sigh of relief because there will be so much to look forward to." - Donnie Darko (2001)
4. "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-Beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die." - Blade Runner (1982)
3. "So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye...Goodbye." - Sound of Music (1965)
2. "I know now why you cry. But it's something I can never do. Goodbye." - T2 (1991)
1. "I'll be right here..." - E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982)
So as the music swells in the background, and the tears stream down our faces, we will be sure to remember all the good times we had with you, Video Paradise.
