Finally found it. ---Pittsburgh--finally has a place to get something different than the typical swill found in Blockbuster's. Down with the evil empire. Give rise to a new breed of video store where film is celebrated.
Pros: Great selection
Cons: sometimes open a little late

Dreaming Ant is an outstanding DVD store, and the only one we'll frequent anymore! Selection is large enough to keep you busy for years, and outstanding - wonderful, thought-provoking movies you won't find elsewhere. The owner actually cares about movies and is always able to make well-informed suggestions. He takes the time to know his customers, their interests, and silly crapola like that. The other chap knows a lot about movies too. Also the arrangement of the selection makes it easier to find something you are looking for. It's a great place to learn about different filmmakers and film genres. Plus I love the concept of a cafe/DVD store. Being able to sip coffee, and chat about movies before selecting one is wonderful. It's intimate, laidback, convenient and professionally run. Also Dreaming Ant's pricing is more fair than any other rental company. And they have an excellent website that allows customers to save a wishlist, review your rental history, view availability of movies...totally rad!
Pros: Selection, website, people
Cons: It is slightly smoky, but I've been told this will change in January. Sometimes it gets pretty busy, but it's worth the wait!
