Blockbuster cuts deal with WB, DOESN'T have to wait 28 days

"Blockbuster Inc. scored a coup today by announcing a new agreement with Warner Bros. to provide immediate availability of DVD and Blu-ray titles from that studio. Thus, The Blind Side will be available on March 23, in Blockbuster stores and by-mail. And on March 30, Blockbuster will have Sherlock Holmes available for immediate release."

Interesting. I went to BB today and wondered why everybody was trying to sell me a copy of The Blind Side. I wasn't sure they were going to let me out of the building until I bought it. I got out anyway.

Hmm, yeah, so that's why they asked me if I wanted to BUY "The Blind Side"!

Now I know.

Well, my local Blockbuster said they will not release LOTR trilogy for rental for a while until it gets a chance to be sold.

Bastards.

Is Newline a division of WB? I noticed that Netflix has them already, so I would think not.
