I have about 75 DVDs, and my roommate has about 30+ more...we generally just buy whatever comes out that we're decently interested in.
My latest DVD is "Life of David Gale", which I strongly recommend.

Get those. But get some older films...there is film history before the 1980s. And what about non-english language films?

You'd have to search Imdb for translation of the Title..
sound like too much effort ;=)
So, when appears the Indy-Collection?

My "collection":
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Flash Gordon

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
12 Monkeys
Woodstock
There are a lot of movies I want, but there's no point in asking you because the only reason I don't have them yet is money.
And I find the extras just about the most important part on a DVD. When I buy a DVD, I expect it to use the space available, otherwise I'll just wait till I see the movie next time on TV... That also means I can live without the extras if I don't expect to see the movie appearing on TV anytime soon.
Do any of you do that too, or do you just buy whichever movies you fancy?

Yes, I like extras too, since they are the added value of purchasing the disc, but I also buy some stuff in the bargain bin that I know is good (e.g. Donnie Brasco and Rowan Atkinson: Live were only $5 or so).
These are the DVDs I own:
Bravo Two Zero
Crime Scene Investigation - 1.1-1.12
Donnie Brasco
Gladiator
The Godfather Collection
Ice Age
Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels
Monster's Ball
Ocean's Eleven
Rowan Atkinson: Live
Snatch
The Usual Suspects (SE)
I'm still after:
Charlie's Angels - Season 1
Crime Scene Investigation - 1.13-1.23
L.A. Confidential
Silence of the Lambs (SE)
Rear Window
The Birds

My DVD collection:
http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mycollect...p?alias=Wraith
Note that you'll need cookies on to see it.
I already know what I'm getting next (Twelve Kingdoms just shipped, Haibane Renmei is pre-ordered), but I wouldn't mind some suggestions for Japenese live-action movies.

With the exception of a few (Chinatown, 2001), I really haven't seen many movies between 1950 and 1980 (I haven't even seen The Godfather.) I'm not buying anything I haven't already seen.
As far as Foreign films go, that's just a small list what I want. I also want Princess and the Warrior, Il Postino, Burnt by the Sun, Run Lola Run, Life is Beautiful, and La Femme Nikita.

my entire collection:
"Fight Club", which was given to me as a gift. Interestingly enough, I dfon;t actually own the movie becuase when i opened the package, i found that the DVD with the movie was missing: i assume an eployee stole it. But since it was a gift from another state and so forth, never got it.
My sister has a rather large collection, but that is hers.
I recommend the DVD for Who Framed Roger Rabbit
