Let's just say I'm happy to see that there's very little overlap between our collections.

I'll give it a 3/10

Sorry, but it's really quite bad...

When you go on a public forum asking people to rate something of yours (think of "hotornot.com"), you have to expect some harsh feedback -- in this case, commments you didn't want to hear.

I saw your collection, and I think it's "ok". But, that's because I'm not into the movies you are. (I do like Chopping Mall, however. )

You had mentioned you're cheap and you're hoping to find stuff used. There are ways to find DVD bargains for NEW discs:

Check out the DVD Exchange forum here. Some people will sell new DVDs in there.

Check out the DVD Bargains forum here on a daily basis. You never know when a great deal will pop up.

Also check out the DVD Club forum. There are codes to use when joining Columbia House that will maximize your Enrollment acquirements vs Fulfillment requirements.

But the main thing is to get what you like to watch. Don't let price keep you from missing out. Good luck!

That would be me, and yes I did get the '42' reference. A guy I used to know back in college kept making jokes about it.

With that said, my collection is made up of mostly, action/adventure, costume period pieces, war/military, sci-fi/fantasy, and westerns.

saddly, I have 27 of the same movies you have. I don't have zardoz though, that may be one of the weirdest movies I've ever seen.

If you're happy, then that is all that matters...

You have Lobster Man from Mars?!? You, sir, are a scholar AND a Gentleman!

For the super huge schlock collection, I give you 127 points, but I deduct 18 points for so few Doctor Who discs. In the end, rounding for percentile, I give you a 11.9. Good work.

You are correct on Zardoz, Lostr. Tis' better to watch while drunk or high because that's how our auteur must have been when he wrote/produced/directed.

Thanks.

NEW ADDITIONS:
Alien From L.A. : Kathy Ireland. Featured on MST3K. Need I say more?
Hulk (Widescreen): I just don't see why everyon tears this film a new one.
The Adventures of Pluto Nash: Mildly funny, works better as straight sci-fi.
Videodrome (Criterion): Had $125 in Christmas cash, couldn't find Brazil (Criterion), and picked this up based on the interesting premise.

Congratulations, you bought Pluto Nash.

I bet it's a full screen version too.

Hey, I liked this film. I just couldn't see why the critics ripped it to shreds. Oh, and the DVD is widescreen (and only comes in widescreen). If you want fullscreen, then get the VHS tape.

The e-penis thing is a joke -- why do the opinions of people you've never met and probably never will matter to you so much?

Your collection is your collection -- find something else to post about or just lurk for awhile and don't be hurt. We all love you.
