With Netflix (now Qwikster) in limbo with a price change, Redbox is the modern movie rental giant. In Capitola and Live Oak alone, there are six Redboxes. None have popped up in Soquel yet, but considering Redbox's colonization of the rest of the county, it could only be a matter of time.
Each week, Redbox.com lists the most popular rentals by location. This week, for the second week in a row, Thor was playing in more of your DVD players than any other movie, while Something Borrowed came in at number two once again. Johnny Depp's Rango has held a spot in the top 20 since it came out on DVD in July. For the second week in a row, it is holding on at number 20.
See the top 20 below. The number in parentheses indicates last week's position on the list.
