Here's mine:

The Fellowship of the Ring

Total DVDs as of 7/27/03: 1

I almost bought the first season of Mr. Show, but it was too expensive.

Harry Seldon · July 27, 2003, 06:50

I have a bunch so I won't list them off but I'd really like to have The Quiet Earth, Night of the Comet, Series Seven, Office Space, and Brigham,Utah on DVD. Time Quest, Pitch Black, and Dr. Strangelove would be bonuses but not vital for now.

connorkimbro · July 27, 2003, 20:50

Perfect Blue
Princess Mononoke
Spirited Away
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Key: The Metal Idol
Boogiebop Phantom

Escaflowne

Most of the movies I own are on VHS, since cheap kung-fu movies (Fantasy Mission Force, 10 Fingers of Death, Dirty Ho, etc.) are easier to come by on VHS (in the buck-a-movie bin). In general I don't like buying things that cost more than five dollars unless I'm going to be eating/drinking it or unless I know that I'll get a lot of use out of it -- otherwise it'll sit around forever, constantly reminding me "If you hadn't bought me, then you could have bought several dozen tacos instead," and the taco-less pit in my stomach cries out in agony.

MrBaggins · July 27, 2003, 21:12

I have about 500 DVD's at this point. I get pretty much any new feature film release that catches my eye or any thing if we're bored and want to watch *something new*, but a lot of classics too.

I could post them... but really don't have the energy to do so now.

My suggestions for a good DVD to get?

Godfather Trilogy

Well worth the 100 bucks. Period.

P.S.

from your list though... I'd recommend Leon: The Professional, International version (I.E. not the standard original US release DVD.) Fabulous transfer,

Zopperoni · July 27, 2003, 21:15

Hm, I bought the Godfather Trilogy for thirty euros a couple of months ago.

Monster bargain.

connorkimbro · July 27, 2003, 21:31

I'd get the godfather trilogy if i saw it also. mostly for the first two movies, not the third, but ya gotta gettem all if you're gonna get any of them, ya know?

monolith94 · July 27, 2003, 21:52

I actually only really want the first one.

Imran Siddiqui · July 27, 2003, 21:54

Also, if you appreciate a good transfer, and what something... 'different', check out the Labyrinth DVD - it has extremely good picture quality, in my opinion.

Does the DVD of Brazil come with the original ending or the happy Hollywood crap ending?

Tingkai · July 28, 2003, 04:54

How much do DVDs cost where you live? In Hong Kong, they sell for about US$30+. VCDs are about US$2 so I usually buy them instead, even if the sound and pic isn't as good as DVDs. So I only have two DVDs:
Zulu
A Springsteen concert.
