Rental Reviews Final Episode - Crazy VHS Tape Cover Art

[@JamesNintendoNerd]

This is the LAST episode of Rental Reviews. (It's also our 100th episode. Good spot to cap it off.) The guys are still working on the channel and their goal is to focus more on solid, scripted videos; from the reoccurring shows (like AVGN, YKWBS, and Retail Reviews) to new, one-off content like location tours, collections, and in-depth reviews. And if you're still craving Rental Reviews, we'll probably do some podcasts soon after we update the website. So, stay tuned... and thanks for watching these last two years!!!

[@whoasked9500]

Sucks to see it go, but it was nice while it lasted!

[@killerzone1999]

As long as you don’t stop making videos I’m fine with whatever content you post.

[@tubroke]

Nooooooo!

[@juggalopenguin1134]

Sad to hear its going but ya gotta do what you gotta do I suppose.

[@Sauce_Boss559]

Last episode!? Now what will I look forward to? You guys all remind me of me and my friends and how we get together and watch movies and talk about film stuff. I vicariously lived the videos store life all over again through you guys. THANK YOU!

[@wstine79]

Time to pour a rolling rock out for rental reviews. I'm really going to miss the show, but I'm glad everybody still on the site.

Lmao neanderthal approach

[@chipskylark8869]

I worked at a bar 4 years ago getting bartenders whatever they need and keeping beer cold. I grabbed 2-24 cases rolling rock and the bottom fell out and I saved 3 out of 48...

Gonna be quite sad to see the show go but to quote Dr Seuss. "don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.

I really hope you guys bring this back. I know the crew has their own channels and their own projects, but just getting together and hearing your thoughts on films really is fun to listen and watch.

[@coldbreezeproductions]

James has a family now, but ya would be cool

[@Dollightful]

Great final episode guys! This was a really fun series. My husband and I enjoyed sitting back and watching Rental Reviews after work. Here's to whatever y'all have planned next! Cheers :D

[@justyoureverydaynerd6734]

This is actually sad, it’s genuinely my favourite series... besides James’ reviews of the Romero “of the dead” series :(

[@1sliiver]

Honestly...this has become my favorite show on Cinemassacre. I still enjoy all the other content, but this is my favorite show so I'm bummed this is the last.

[@juser-abuser]

It's basically a pathetic rip-off of Red Letter

[@brian728]

Crap, this was my "drive home from work on friday and get stuck In traffic" video! My favorite groups always break up.....super best friends...now rental reviews. Glad no ones going anywhere though! I'll keep watching no matter what and thank you guys got the 100 episodes and making my commute home so much better!

[@Echoes_AJ]

"Today, his store outsells Blockbuster's by a substantial margin" Perfect closing line. Hats off guys!

[@chrisgreen2846]

[@scotttascarella2951]

This show was my most looked forward to on KZbin. Getting off late from work at a restaurant always sucks but coming home to chill with the guys and a rental review always made my night go from bad to good. Thanks guys for all the great reviews!

[@eugenem2000]

this was my fav show on KZbin..... im gonna miss u guys so much... as a 38year old that spend my teenage years in the U.S..... this show hit me on the right spot in the nostalgia .... gonna miss it, but i wish u all the best. great last episode!

LOL!!

[@kurtshastany1945]

Ive enjoyed this series immensely... but you all really did promise us a 'Masters of the Universe' review and it never happened.

[@thequinlanshow3326]

And Johnny Mnemonic, there's a ton of other movies they said they would review and never did. Still sad coming back to these videos, by far my favorite series James has ever done.

[@tylerhackner9731]

Sucks that this is ending but it had a nice run

[@dragonmaster613]

I've seen other channels claim ending at 100, but came back months later.

[@brellnob]

This is a good show, it shouldn’t end prematurely.

[@TheGamingGoomba1]

Something feels off here. They didn’t know this was going to be the last episode when filming this. I understand the putting the show on hold due to the circumstances but cancelling forever? :(

[@zacharypontzer1166]

They did explicitly say they're gonna do a bubch of other stuff. I'm looking forward to seeing these guys in a bunch of different settings.

[@Grabehn42]

This is one of the weirdest "show endings" I've seen, it's like this weirdly sad vibe even though no one is going away.

[@JosephO75]

Pretty sure they were parodying the sandlots endling

[@benpipp7408]

@@JosephO75 They combined the endings of "Stand by me" and "The Sandlot" in one parody. Which is why Justy gets stabbed in the throat at a fast food resturant. That doesn't happen in the sandlot.

[@zanemurcha2675]

Wow, I can still remember the day you guys started this show. Over 100 movies rented out, a sudden change in staff, a move in store location, some amazing stories being told, stabbed eyeballs, the live Rental Review Panel and now we are done. It's being over 100 Saturday Morning's I've watched this show. And let me tell you alot can change in 100 Weeks!

[@rosheavaleth4925]

Thank you from this great years guys, greatings form mexico, i hope this project revive again some day.

I'm gonna miss Rental Reviews. It was a fun ride with tons of laughs along the way. While it's gonna be weird not getting new episodes of this series, I'm looking forward to what you guys have in store for the future.

[@Trotoloko]

You guys can't imagine how much this show helped me brightening my days either by helping getting out my depression, just by making happy days happier, and specially helping me doing art! You Cinemassacre crew are an important part of my personal lore, that has been in my life since 2007, 8 or so when I had to watch it on Screwattack or GameTrailers, making it the most magical days of my internet life,and even shaped my tastes. You guys helped me a lot to find what I like most (in a hobby perspective) in my life! You helped me a lot growing up from my teenager years and discovering how my tastes are pretty much in the lines of both classical cinema years, the 70 through early 00's nerd subculture and retro in general. And I know it is because it resonates with me, it's not because nostalgia. And Rental Reviews was the icing on the cake that made everything perfect for me. Cinemassacre is not just a hobby thing. It's an important part of my personality. My life. So much, that I honestly cry with joy anytime I hear the AVGN main theme, the melody. Thankyou very much, guys. Hope to always see more of you while still makes you happy to continue the wonferful and sincere and passionate project that is Cinamassacre.

[@bradkehler4685]

I hear you.

Amen.

I for one am just glad to hear confirmation that Tony won the Kumite Tournament and they didn't just film all of the episodes in advance before he left.

This was probably my favorite series on Cinemassacre for the past couple of years. I hate to see it end but I can always hold out hope it'll come back.

"last episode...for now!" so you are telling me there is a chance ?

[@prehistoricturtlesaurus5309]

Probably a chance that's tied in to how many viewers they can maintain without it.

Guess what Liam? KZbin allows you to watch past videos ANY TIME you want. How the heck does that even need to be explained to you?

[@Docdroz]

I would love for this to come back. It brought me back to cinemassacre after several years of not watching.

[@NetoTedesco]

There is really no way to keep the show going? Maybe one episode a month? It’s one of my and many others favorite show. Even with a podcast now and then the set and the clips with commentary will surely be missed. It is really unique and I believe it deserves to go on. I think I have watched all episodes like 20 times by now...

Not much of a comment guy but wtf?! I could listen to you guys talk about these movies for hours. Really disappointed to hear this series has ended. Hope whatever comes next is just as entertaining. Been here since the start of AVGN, and have really come to love these guys as much as James. Keep up the good work

[@ExcenGaming]

I loved this series. Hopefully one day we'll see something like this come back. 100 great episodes and lots of laughs. Excellent work Cinemassacre!

[@MaximumMadnessStixon]

In regards to 37:37 ... _Magic in the Mirror: Fowl Play_ is the full title. It's a sequel to a movie called _Magic in the Mirror._ I only know this because the trailers for both films were on a couple VHS tapes I owned back in the day, and the giant ducks in the trailers used to totally creep me out for some reason, haha.

[@MixMasterLar]

Man just fron that cover I would have sworn Magic in the Mirror was the worst tagline ever lol

[@ThisAccountIsNoLongerActive000]

One of my favourite movies growing up oddly enough. The ducks being so terrifying was what drove me into watching this movie. Also the fact that they're cannibalistic ducks who boil people alive into tea, even their own.

Agree with the other points that on the spot reactions are not really James' thing, but scripted raunchy humor is. The Nerd or Board James as a guest character in a Plinkett review (maybe the disappointing son that crashed into a Taco Bell) could be good. I know RLM has gotten away from the scripted stuff though.

[@frankbenham1745]

I just want to thank you guys for the hours of entertainment. I like both your scripted and unscripted videos. You guys are already talking about stuff that makes me nostalgic, but you guys remind me of amalgamations of friends I grew up with, so listening to your unscripted talks reminds me of conversations we had growing up. Listening to it is like listening to a remix of my life.
