Movie DVD's

Who here collects movie dvds as much as cds? I do but not even close to what I have in cds. I'm up to around 250 movies now usually pick up 3 a week!

So tell me!

Wargod48

we have almost 1000 dvds & 418 vhs (some we re-bought on dvd). not any one specific genre, just all kinds of movies & tv shows.

i dont ever buy moives i always rent them unless its a classic moive (i.e The Die Hard Moives, Waynes World etc.) If I bought all the moives I ended up renting I'd probally have well over a 1000 dvds/vhs in my house

but my real collection is only about 50 dvds or so

I only buy DVDs when they're cheap. I either get previously viewed stuff from Blockbuster when they're on sale, or from bargain bins at other stores. (You'd be amazed at some of the cool, crappy movies I've gotten at the dollar store! Haha!)
Most DVDs are "one spin and out" for me, I'm not in the habit of watching the same films over and over and over again (with the exceptions of some long time favorites, of course) so once I watch a DVD once, maybe twice at most, I end up trading'em in or sellin'em off at a yard sale.

My DVD collection has grown over the last few years, which is funny considering I never watch movies. I have about 35 movies I need to watch. Haha.

That sounds just like me. In total I have about 60 DVDs sitting on my shelf right now, and out of that 60, there are probably two dozen that I haven't watched yet. Some of them have been there for a year or more, some of'em are still in the shrink wrap!!

A while back my wife and I looked at how many "unwatched" movies we had laying around and said "OK, we don't need to buy any more DVDs until we've watched all the ones we already have." Yea, suuuuuuure, that went well. They just keep on piling up and piling up. Hell, I bought two more yesterday. The supermarket down the street from me is closing down their movie rental dept and they're selling off all their old rental DVDs for five bucks apiece. I couldn't resist at that price so I snagged "Jason X" and "The Man-Thing." Lord knows when I'll ever get to watch'em, but at least I have'em!!

I have a decent number of DVDS. Planning on watching it grow over the next few years.

I dont buy dvds as much anymore. I do have the complete 10 season run of Stargate SG1 and 3 seasons of Stargate Atlantis. I also have the Stargate movie and the new Stargate movie Ark of truth on pre-order

I also have the complete robotech dvd set, some angel and buffy, first 5 seasons of x-files, the star wars, indiana jones, lord of the rings (extended) and on vhs the 20+ years of Doctor Who....

I used to collect movies on VHS. I had over 600 titles. But I had to stop when I had not even seen half of them! lol Now I maostly collect DVD's for my childen. I think I own at least 25 Disney Classics, and all the Pixar stuff.

I have more concert dvd's than movie dvd's.

My kids have 2-3 dozen movies. I have about 10. Not a collector. We rent and we gets TONS from the library. Our public library has a pretty darn good selection.

I have a pretty good amount of DVD's. I've sold alot of my VHS stuff off recently when I've gotten them on DVD. I still buy some VHS tapes if I dont have it and find it cheap though. Hell, I only recently started getting rid of my beta max tapes.

300+ dvd's, 1/2 of which are kid's/family movies

I still go to Goodwill and buy VHS's for 50 cents!

I'm closing in on 500 DVDs. Just bought 3 more this week. "Slaughterhouse Five", "Class Of 1984" and Looney Tunes Golden Collection Vol. 5.

This thread inspired me to put my DVDs in a spreadsheet. So now I\'ll be annoying and post it. Haha.

As you can see, I dig gay period dramas. Those in bold I still need to watch.

Goodwill!!! Bought three pair of nearly new blue jeans the other day for $15!! Would've cost me $45-60 elsewhere!!

And I've picked up some sweet cds at thrift stores.

I recently bought Aeon Flux: The Animated Collection. This is the ORIGINAL animated series from MTV, not that cruddy movie.

I tell you, I've rarely seen American animation that can actually be considered art, but this IS art. The great animation, the incredibly deep plots, the religious and social overtones....it's just awesome.

I have The Maxx on VHS and sure wish that would be released on DVD. Another piece of MTV "art".

I have like maybe 10 or 11, haha.

Let's see...

Zombie.
House by the Cemetery.
Night of the Living Dead.
Dawn of the Dead.
Day of the Dead.
Land of the Dead.
Shaun of the Dead.
The Exorcist.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
One Who Flew Over The Coocoo's Nest.
Evil Dead II

I think that's it...

What did you think of that one, Mortuary?

BTW, I'm a Romero freak and you owe it to yourself to pick up The Crazies.

Spectre - I didn't know you were such a big fan!

May or may not be of interest.....I had a chance to visit the cemetery from Night Of The Living Dead. A buddy of mine and I would have a "Day Of Nothing" each Summer before going off to our different colleges. We'd pick a direction and start taking random turns. That time we ended up in Maryland (from Ohio) and on the way came across that Cemetery somewhere in the middle of PA. I have pics, just can't find them!! I was kind of spooky even in the middle of the day. Noone else was around and it's sort of out of the way in the middle of nowhere. We didn't stay long!

scott, yeah I love all of his zombie flicks alot.

I should have went to that cemetery when I lived in WV but never did. I always wanted to go to the mall from Dawn of the Dead too.
