Interesting fact about Run Lola Run


I work at a video store, and a couple of days ago I looked up which individual dvd had been rented the most.

1. Run Lola Run at 244 times
2. 2001: A space Odyssey at 217 times
3. O Brother Where Art Thou at 216 times
4. Emma at 204 times

Weird results, huh?

reply

Wow, your customers have awful taste (besides Lola Rennt then)

reply

What??! 2001 Space Odyssey and O Brother Where art Thou are awesome films. I agree Emma isn't that great, but thats 3 out of 4 top rented films being very good! I'm just surprised that your current stats has Lola Rennt (and the others) listed higher than current releases.

Or is that a different section?

id agree with a statistic of my own, it took me 18 months to see this movie, because whener i asked for it, it was out -

We did run lola run at school for english, my teacher rented it out every week, for some reason, because she couldnt find a copy to buy... so she probably rented it out a good 10-15 times

What do you mean you "did" Run Lola Run for English? What would a German movie have to do with English class? Was it just a reward for a week of good behavior or an easy Friday?

you lucky your costumers has taste. my friend owns video store (thats how i get most of my dvds, duh) and oh boy those 4 would probably be near bottom on our lists. mindless hollywood crap is at the top, makes you wonder.

Thought i found space odyssey boring.

2001: A Space Odyssey is one of the best movies ever made..
..and if you don't think so, watch it again a few more times.

Does that seem weird to anyone else?

Haha, yes. I was thinking the same thing.

I suppose on a clear day you can see the class struggle from here.

I guess you could watch it in german w/ english subtitles.

Watch in english w/ german subtitles.

You first seemed like someone who knows about quality filmmaking but revealed you're not different than those mindless hollywood blockbuster fans you're accusing of. That was such an epic fail. Lol. :D

I know this a very old post but i needed to answer this. ;)

God forbid people have different opinions about a movie.

yeah, it would be nice to know.

Strange results. No judgement on the quality of the movies, but I wouldn't have expected any of these movies to be in your top 4.
