Instead, they are full of games.<br /> I want movies and have been a good customer for years. The nearest movies I want, such as Blitz, starring Jason Statham who is a hot actor, are now located 50 miles (one way!) from me, instead of being in the 5 Redboxes in my town. </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/rio-and-redbox#post-1380 Mon, 08 Aug 2011 09:54:08 +0000 gallinson 1380@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>BBE, Redbox, Amazon, HBO etc. all have different contracts with the studios that determine when they become available on the specific site. These contracts are long standing. It's nothing new. Thank God we have competition in America so we can excercise our FREEDOM OF CHOICE. If you want to see Rio before it hits Redbox, patronize BBE. It's rather a simple concept! </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/rio-and-redbox#post-1379 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 04:42:16 +0000 hukildkeny 1379@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>so sad to see that rio will be available at bbe on 8/9 just one week after release yet redbox wont have it until 8/30. is this a move by the studios to try to put bbe ahead of redbox? </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/redbox-website-problems#post-1364 Tue, 28 Jun 2011 09:41:41 +0000 boberthavok 1364@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>The main site itself works. But when I try to click on a movie or game the site gets a pop up ad that will not go away. It also won't let me check the location of the Redboxs near me to see what movies they have. </p> <p>Does anyone know why it is doing this to me or is anyone else having the same problem? </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/how-to-delete-or-disable-the-redbox-account#post-1360 Fri, 24 Jun 2011 22:02:40 +0000 Misty 1360@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>Just to clarify, text : Redbox codes to 727272 </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/did-redbox-give-up-on-its-new-website-design#post-1354 Tue, 14 Jun 2011 00:19:46 +0000 Anonymous 1354@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>I know the new RedBox website is very slow to load, and more so on the maps. </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/how-to-delete-or-disable-the-redbox-account#post-1351 Tue, 14 Jun 2011 00:10:56 +0000 Anonymous 1351@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>Hi, seanguyen, you can try this way, send a text message to 727272 and it should send you a promo code on the first Monday of the month. </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/i-would-like-to-call-my-favorite-kiosk-and-reserve#post-1346 Wed, 25 May 2011 10:06:24 +0000 sinsycophant 1346@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>Hey folks, brand new member here. Searched the forum but didn't find a discussion on this.</p> <p>I use the Redbox android app and the webpage but often I'm driving home and would like to see what new releases are available at my local kiosk. If I just drive over to the kiosk it adds thirty minutes to my commute home (15 minutes each way) and I'm gambling that there will be something available that I want to see. Like I said, I use the mobile app but when I'm driving it seems too dangerous to be scrolling through movies on my phone.</p> <p>Does anyone else think it would be cool to call an automated line, hear the new releases, and then reserve at your favorite kiosk? </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/how-to-delete-or-disable-the-redbox-account#post-1334 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 06:00:46 +0000 seanguyen 1334@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>Does anyone know how to delete the Redbox account? Note: the account on Redbox.com site, not this Insideredbox.com site.<br /> I registered 5 months ago, providing all info such email address, phone #, and I haven't gotten 1 Monday free code, I did contact Redbox CSR and they said they would work on that. It has been 1 month now, no response whatsover so I want to delete the account.<br /> If anyone knows how, please help.<br /> Big thanks </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/what-is-going-on-with-the-redbox-website#post-1333 Thu, 14 Apr 2011 14:38:00 +0000 offthegrid 1333@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>They had a good working website and for a long long time know they've been playing around with it and it stinks.

Because it is. Besides, those ranks are aweful anyway. Use Rottentomato.com for the best answers. The reason it went back to the way it was originally for a time was because the new server could not handle all the new traffic on the site. You\'ll notice alot of bugs still. They are trying to iron out the kinks even still. </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/bonus-material-only-on-bluray#post-1279 Sun, 13 Feb 2011 23:27:36 +0000 GreatWhiteColey 1279@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>I have noticed that there are not as many previews in some of the movies, Knight and Day and Dinner for Schmucks. Is that a rental thing, or are some studios moving away from putting previews on our DVD/Blu rays? </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/so-glad-i-dont-have-to-pay-for-bad-movies#post-1278 Sun, 13 Feb 2011 23:26:00 +0000 GreatWhiteColey 1278@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>Ya I added her onto my, \"I know its a bad movie because ________ is in it.\"</p> <p>She has joined the ranks of Dennis Quaid, Kevin Costner, and Nicholas Cage (new movies, he still has some decent older ones.) </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/so-glad-i-dont-have-to-pay-for-bad-movies#post-1277 Sat, 12 Feb 2011 15:50:02 +0000 gallinson 1277@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>Megan Fox is one of the worst \"actors\" in the history of cinema. Should have been a tip off.Worse than Joile (tip off #2). Try using some common sense when picking movies to watch. </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/so-glad-i-dont-have-to-pay-for-bad-movies#post-1273 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 00:52:34 +0000 ultramannick 1273@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>I\'m so glad I found this site with the free rental codes. It is certainly saving me $$$ for having some really bad movies rob me of hours of my life. For instance:</p> <p>PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 2 - Really a BAD movie<br /> JONAH HEX - Even though it had Megan Fox, I had to fastforward to the end just to watch it<br /> SALT - Would this movie EVER end?</p> <p>Maybe we can write comments with a Sharpie on the DVD to warn others? They wouldn\'t be able to track that, right? Just a thought. </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/bonus-material-only-on-bluray#post-1272 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 09:32:11 +0000 NyteHawk 1272@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>This is common. The studios release rental DVDs and retail DVDs. Redbox gets rental DVDs because they are obviously renting the DVDs out. Its a strategy by the studios to try to boost sales. </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/bonus-material-only-on-bluray#post-1269 Sun, 06 Feb 2011 22:11:04 +0000 Anonymous 1269@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>The last few DVDs I\'ve rented from REDBOX have all bonus materials missing - when clicking on \'Special Features\' or \'Bonus Material\' - a message comes onscreen saying that they don\'t appear on this DVD because it\'s only a rental - but you can see them on BluRay.

I\'m taking a course in Management at Troy University and chose Redbox to do a research paper on because it seems to be a great company with lots of growth potential. The problem is, I\'m having trouble doing research on it since it\'s not a publicly held corporation.<br /> I\'m not asking for any company secrets, but if anyone could give me any general infromation on the following subjects, it would be greatly appreciated:</p> <p>• Company mission, strategy, goals<br /> • Company core values • Information on CEO, his/her leadership, power and influence on the company; management style<br /> • Corporate culture • How does the company create and sustain culture?<br /> • Organizational structure<br /> • How does the company stimulate innovation and change?<br /> • How does the company handle corporate social responsibility? </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/rated-r-movies-return-help#post-1255 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 19:35:14 +0000 NyteHawk 1255@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>Actually there are Redbox\'s that do not rent rated R movies...\\</p> <p>Christian, I believe if someone returned a rated R movie to one of these machines it would not be able to be rented. </p> http://www.insideredbox.com/topic/repackaging-old-movies#post-1252 Sun, 23 Jan 2011 10:23:21 +0000 Rockstar81 1252@http://www.insideredbox.com/ <p>Yeah the redbox machines that I go to have the year of the older movies also. </p>
