Blockbuster University and Buster Sales

This ridiculous training video tells you all you need to know to be the best Blockbuster Video employee you can be!  Without the internet, this poor young lady is lost, talking to a feeble-looking figment of her imagination (as seen at left) known as "Buster Sales."  Too bad they couldn't find a way to make his hair clash with his eyes and clothes and tie and background.  The acting in this thing is first-rate; my favorites are the 1960s movie fan who has never heard of "Casino Royale," the woman named Marge Simpson and the stunning and very public mental collapse that the sales clerk suffers after horrible abuse by Mr. Sales.  Although my high school band director makes this guy seem like Mr. Rogers.  Anyhow, all those tapes in that entire store must be worth a dollar -- total -- today.
