not even close....i have about 250 right now, after selling about 75 a couple of months ago....with about 200 still on my wishlist. a wishlist that never ever ever drops below 150 no matter how many i get...there's just so much other stuff coming out all the time. And i'm pretty broke right now so i haven't been able to keep up with new stuff at all this year....but they aren't going anywhere, so i'm not too worried.

gutwrencher a year from now...

I'm building my perfect library of films, and at 2,087 titles...I've got a long way to go...even at 10 or so a week. based on my "needed" and "most wanted" lists...I'll top off around 2,500 titles...maybe a little more. I'm gettin' there.:thumbsup:

;)

As someone who didn't start watching movies very often until I turned 19 or 20 I have A LOT that I haven't seen. DVDs have me spoiled so I won't watch a film on TV at all. Most of the films I own are from the 90's and 2000's since I grew up on them. I finally have most of those that I want but still have a quite a bit I need to see based on reviews and such. My last CH order consisted of 4 films from the 50's & 60's. One of those being Rear Window. What a great film. My goal is to check out older films along with foreign films that are highly regarded then move on to lesser known films. For every great film I come across like Rear Window or Lawrence of Arabia there is a clunker like Animal House.

damn...you know me and my problem all too well!:D

Not even close :(.

I got over 200 and I'm not even close, every day I find a new title that I want to own!

I need to get another storage cabinet before i go crazy(never enough $$ though). I'm at about 230(but probably closer to 300) i guess - i haven't counted since a year ago when i counted just over 150.

Not even close...

No way, every time I go to look for one title I see 5 more I want to buy :)

I'm pretty much done buying DVDs aside from new releases.

I also have a very strict policy about what I buy. I used to buy anything, but now I won't blind buy a single thing. I know I may catch flack for this, but I will download something, watch it, and if I liked it enough, buy it. If not, I feel justified in not wasting my money.

If there is a movie I do want, the DVD also has to be worth it. Case in point, I already own the original "Das Boot" DVD. They are releasing the 2 disc tv mini-series release this week, but from what I've read, I'm basically taking a crappy quality print, crappier remaster audio, and sacrificing the audio commentary AND spending $30 bucks for another cut of the film.

After some thinking, I decided it's a waste of money to pay $30 for an inferior DVD of what I have now and hope they fix it.

I'll always have hundreds, if not thousands of DVDs I'd love to own, but I realize unless I win the lottery, I keep it limited to only DVDs I really want.

That's why you won't see Kill Bill in my collection until they put out the uncut editions in a SE form.

Gah Puggie, thanks for reminding me I still need to buy the Das Boot Director's Cut the next time I'm at Walmart :D

If it's any consolation, I doubt they'll have it. :)

I only go to Walmart for the really, really popular DVDs pretty much everyone (Circuit City, Target, Best Buy, etc) will advertise.

Trying to get help out of a Walmart employee is an effort in futility. If it's not on the shelf, you'd have better luck asking a blind man what something looks like than getting a Walmart employee to help you find it.

Nah they do, I just saw it today ($10, not bad I guess). The Walmart here has a pretty good selection and all the new releases are 50/50 FS and WS. I can't really complain though because it's the only place within 40 miles to get DVDs =/

The employees are still dumb here too though :D

Except for new releases I have all I want..
