I have seen a smashed screen before, but that doesn't compare...

That looks like it's at a Wallgreens. If so, I'm not shocked one bit.

Never seen this happen at a b&m. This is why BLOCKBUSTER will reign supreme.

Dude, you’re supposed to return your movie THEN smash the shit out of it. Not the other way around.

Actually, I have heard of several stores (three within the districts that I worked in) being "improved with an instant drive-through."

Pretty close ... I actually saw the Redbox "rep" today at another location, so I had to stop and ask him about it. Apparently it was a lady who was trying to drive while her right leg was broken and in a full cast.

Can somebody photochop the "demon party girl" or the Hulk into those pictures? "Hulk want greenbox! Hulk smash redbox!"

I'm actually a little scared when standing in line at one of these outside of Walgreens. They will need to start a new website peopleinredboxline.com soon to catalogue some of the characters you see there.

How exactly would you go about returning a movie in this case? It shouldn't be your job to track down other kiosks.

You can just go onto their website and put in your zip code.

The last time I saw a red box that beaten up was on my date with Lindsay Lohan.

If I had seen his reply, I'd boo that too, but it was slightly better than yours. It takes some thinking. lol.
