Is Blockbuster Making a Comeback?

TL;DR Summary
A message on Blockbuster's website stating "We are working on rewinding your movie" has sparked speculation of a possible comeback and nostalgia for the defunct rental stores. The message has been on the website since at least August of last year, but it has recently gained attention. Blockbuster filed for bankruptcy in 2010 and was acquired by Dish Network in 2011, which closed down the brick-and-mortar stores, except for one in Bend, Oregon. The lone store has become a tourist destination and has a loyal customer base. Dish Network has not commented on whether the message on the website means anything.
