they seem to still be getting in new releases, at least as of the end of July:

the Alaska blockbuster did close though.

My wife and I do a retro date night once in a while where we hit up dandy’s to have burgers and shakes roller skated to the car, then rent a movie from Blockbuster… definitely a fun throwback.
