This ‘Bingebuster’ Website Recreates a Virtual Blockbuster to Peruse

Time to step into the past! 📼 Venture back into the ol’ Blockbuster video store and choose your movie to watch tonight. A brand new website called “Bingebuster” has launched as a fun virtual experience. Instead of just recreating the Blockbuster video experience digitally, they went a step further and actually made this a functional experience. The website syncs with various streaming services (Netflix, Prime Video, HBO Max, Disney+, Apple TV, Tubi, ITVX) to display actual movies that are available to watch directly on the online shelves as if you were browsing & choosing there.

This might really help with the streaming choice overload that so many people feel. It’s organized just like Blockbuster – by genre along with new releases. You can even re-sort and filter as well.
