Land of the Dead

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.

I love Romero as well. I LOVE ZOMBIES!
As for Land of the Dead, it was decent. It's a better recent film than some of these other ones coming out. It's Romero, come on!
I'm more for the old Romero films, honestly.
What's your take on it?
I'll see if I can pick up The Crazies.
Thanks.

Pffft! Why not? Haha. How many do you have? I have 237. Good to finally get them into a list.

I own quite a bit of DVDs. I recently bought Lethal Weapon: The Complete Series on DVD.

Hell yea... found that one for 5 bucks at a supermarket of all places, haha! Still searching for the 2 sequels!

I'll look for 'em the next time I go to the used cd/dvd store.

Last time I checked, "Maniac Cop 2" was only available on DVD in Europe, not the U.S. ... I think "MC III" was released on American DVD at some point, but I've never seen one...

I very rarely buy movies. My fiancee and I have over 6000 DVDs between the two of us. We were big movie freaks a few years back, plus we worked at a video store and got great discounts. I used to special order hard to find stuff all the time for myself and sometimes get it $10-15 lower than the retail cost.

Since leaving the video store 4 years ago, I probably buy 5-10 DVDs a year. Which is A LOT less than I used to do. I mostly go for TV sets now, but I did recently purchase Rambo, Superman Returns, a slasher two pack of My Bloody Valentine & April Fool's Day.

We still go to the theater 2-4 times a month, but I'm usually past the point of "that was so awesome I have to own it on video!".

I used to collect on the cheap. I'm quite proud of my Criterion collection that every purchase was for under ten dollars or less. Half the fun was scoping out the bargains. Plus I always seemed to catch a lot of mis-priced things. The Killer at Best Buy marked 9.99, The Rock at Blockbuster for 7.99. There was also a mall video game store that sold them for 3.00.

Of course over time I started to realize that I would never get around to watching most of the stuff. I figured I had all I'll ever need. I usually don't even hit the DVD section at my local Hastings anymore. My last DVD purchase was completing my Three's Company seasons and WKRP.

Wow! That's a lot of movies! Damn. I thought I had a lot of 250 or so.

Aeon Flux was/is awesome... everything they put on that Liquid Television slot was.

I have a pretty alright collection... some notables:


Hellraiser 1 & 2 in numbered tin box
Alien quadrilogy
Star Trek movie box (1-10)
Ergo Proxy (full collection in box)
Eraserhead (giant box DVD edition)
Tetsuo: The Iron Man
Akira (tin box)
LOTR box
Blue Planet (Christmas present from wolfandraven..and teh awesome)

Aside from that most of the DVD's I buy are usually the super special editions....... so I own those of Tombstone, V for Vendetta, Legend, Blade Runner, Bram Stoker's Dracula, any film that has one really.......except for the Apocalypse Now! dossier thing... there was no need to split BOTH versions of the film up into 2 DVD's. And it's still missing the Heart of Darkness docu.

Although it's not a movie, but a hockey DVD, I bought Don Cherry 19 this afternoon.
