I have, like, 4. Maybe.

coolmovies
I get told off for having too many well in there view that is

C-Dic
I used to think there's no such thing as "too many", but when I was gutting my collection to pay for my HDTV, I realized there was. Which is why I cut my collection in half. So many of the movies I owned weren't really worth owning, muchless worthy of multiple viewings in a years time. Besides, if I miss them, I'll rent them for free or spend $5 at Pawn America and get them back, if need be.

Yeah, I still love movies, but I don' have to own every single title I moderately liked at some point in time. I did ditch a good 25-30 titles because they'll be on HD-DVD by the end of the year, and I have plans to upgrade within a month or so.

Anycrap, don't worry about what anyone else thinks about when it comes to the number of DVD's you have. Quality and personal preferences is always more important.

Exactly. A lot of people wonder why I have some of the titles I do in my library, and I always tell them, "What does it matter?" If I wanted to, with the money I make and the connections I have, I could have probably twice the enitre library I have now. But that would mean owning a lot of shitty titles that I'll never watch more than once, or maybe even not at all. This has never been a contest for me. It doesnt matter how many movies you own, so long as you like the movies that you do own and get personal pleasure ouf them each and every time you watch them.

MildPossession
Indeed!




Same here, nearly every dvd I have there is something I will watch over and over in it. There are a few I probably will get rid of though, but that's rare.

BackFire
250 or so, I think.

Myth
Somewhere in the 200-225 range (unless I completely loss track and its even more). My problem is that I don't have a job and I keep buying DVD's and I even buy some that I don't plan on watching even a second time. Its like movies have become my obsession and I want to watch and own as many as I can. Since I'm always watching new ones, I rarely have time to re-watch ones I bought except for maybe just a few times or unless its one of maybe 20 that I have watched countless times.

I think when it comes down to it, I'm a collector. I grew up collecting cards (I have probably tens of thousands of just basketball cards). Now I charish a DVD (especially special edition and rare ones) even if I don't plan on watching them. Also, its nice for when a friend asks "What is that?" At that point I'll usually say, "Oh, you have to see it" and then I'll watch it with them.

tabby999
i have somwhere around 120, but they're all boxed up sad i'm living with my friends at the moment and his fiance is sick so shes been home all day for two weeks and i never get to watch any of them...

Deano
315 to be precise.

Evil Dead
http://www.dvdaficionado.com/dvds.html?id=jeff+meadows

around 850 or so. 822 I have catalogged........but 30 or so small independant dvds not listed in the database on that site. All box sets are counted as 1......so all 3 Indiana Jones dvds in the box set are counted as 1, all 4 Alien dvds in the box set are counted as 1, etc. If my box sets were to be seperated it would be around 900.

Bin them..... What the f**k?

coolmovies
or trade them ? just asking

Evil Dead
I keep all my dvds. I have far to many to keep in shelves anymore (without lining a wall of my living room). I have cd binders......208 disc capacity each, 5 of them. All my dvds are catalogged on a MSWP file......in order of binders 1-5.....in order they are inserted in the binder. If I want to watch a movie......I just type it's name into the "find" function......it will skip to the dvd name, showing me exactly where it's at, which binder it is in. That's hypothetical as I've never used it. I have a great memory. I know where each of my dvds are located (round abouts.....which binder....which general area, I'm not rain man).

I have a small shelf in my living room that I keep box sets on......

I'd say input those titles into the database, unless you don't care. That's how any of these titles are added on the site, members of the site submit the information. I've had to do it a couple times myself.
Originally posted by coolmovies

I sell them to a video store or video game store. I try the video store first 'cause the credit there would be more worth my while, as I'm not a big gamer.

I've only had to sell one movie because it was a blindbuy and I hated it so much (Wrong Turn). I've sold about five wrestling DVDs because it just lost its appeal to me. Other than those, I've only sold a few when I upgraded to the newer edition.

tabby999
yeah generally i dont sell my dvds, i might upgrade like wolfie if the new version has something worthy on it but if i know a box set or something like that will come out i wait (like with Kill Bill, havn't bought them, waiting for The Whole Bloody Affair to come out)

Evil Dead
I upgrade also......but still don't get rid of my old ones for some reason......I'm very lazy.

I have 5. They Live, Shaun of the Dead, This Is Spinal Tap, Evil Dead, and Ginger Snaps.

They Live because I won't get but maybe $0.50 for it at CD Warehouse, same for Spinal Tap, I will never part with Shaun of the Dead, Evil Dead is the Elite Entertainment edition which is somewhat OOP, and Ginger Snaps because it's the Canadian edition which is increasinly harder to find, and the only release of the movie in Widescreen, anamorphic at that.

I kind of got bored owning DVD's. In my estimation, with Netflix, it's pointless to go and spend $$$ on movies that I'll watch maybe once or twice a year when I can spend $20 a month and watch 50 through Netflix, just renting them.

Numbers never meant anything to me. It actually depressed me at times.

Wolfie
I think to own a good large digital entertainment package, you'd need a strong DVD collection to back it up. I don't mean you have to own 500, but 5 doesn't seem enough for all that good equipment.

And I like owning because I don't have to rely on Hollywood Video or Netflix to get a movie I'm craving to watch right now. I'm my own video store and they're all at my disposal.

Anyway, back on topic, I'm at 395 listings now.

Leggy_n_Merry
I wish I had around 400 DVDs. When I'm in my late 20s or something my collection will hopefully have grown to about that much. Although I will have hardly any money when in university later this year and when I leave I'll be in debt so I may have to cut down on how many I buy sad I have 109 right now, which is amazing compared to all my friends. Most of them love music more than films and rarely buy DVDs but one loves movies too and she has 60. It's my birthday on Wednesday and I'm getting at least 6 DVDs so yay!

I'd rather have the money so I can buy more video games, or spend it on my kid. I just need to find a good outlet to sell them for a good price.

all are real dvds. I've been collecting since early 2000.......if I think I'll watch the movie more than once or the cost is cheap, I'll just buy it instead of renting it. If I rent something and like it, I normally end up buying it when the price drops down to around $9.99. My wife does the same......hence all the chick flicks scattered throughout.

Deepdiscount.com is THE place to get dvds.

spidey-dude
i have around 300 dvds. 100 of them are legally made purchased frome the store. the others ive copied them from renting them at blockbuster. i usually rent them then copy isntead of buying it. unless its like a tv series or something then i buy it of if its a movie i really like then i purchase.

I keep all my cases. I have them in big ass rubermaid tubs in my shed. If I ever want to sell duplicates when newer releases come out, I just put them back in the og case.

I don't like it. I like having the physical copy in my hand.

And say in the future, DVD, Blu-Ray, etc. is long gone and everything is digitally downloaded to people's hard drives. We pay about $10 per movie to be downloaded to this. I build up a nice collection of say, 652 titles, then boom, my hard drive crashed. I just lost all those movies. Damn. Too bad we didn't stick to the old system. 'Cause then I would just have to fork over $40 for a DVD player and I still have all my movies.

Downloads will never replace having the physical copy.

Brick is fab, buy it!! One with a nice slipcase here in the UK, if you are in the UK.

Physically copies always, couldn't stand if there was mostly digital film downloads, but that will not happen for a longgggggg time, don't worry. Plus they will not get rid of physical purchases completely, not fair on people who don't use computers. Would be an uproar.

200+ dvds and idk how many vhs tapes i got way to many of them

Robtard
I have around 130 bought DVD's and at least another 1300 burned movies(from Netflix rentals), though It could really be a few hundred more. I lost count.

I keep them in those large DVD binders, I categorize each binder A-Z. I really need to number each binder and make spreadsheets of what is in them. Maybe one day I'll do it and post my collection.

I've recently slowed by burning though, as I rarely dig into the folders and watch something, at most, a few times a year. Seems like a waste of space and money, even though I pay about $20.00 for a hundred blank disc.

I used to have 50-60 VHS films, sold the them years ago in a yard sale. Only one I keep was The Little Mermaid, as it has the original cover art with the hidden dildo in the castle spires, might be worth something some day.

MildPossession
Hidden dildo!!



I do that, but I erase the films off the dvd copy once I've seen them, just so I can send more back in a week and get more films. We are naughty.
