Courtney Thorne-Smith was really cute in that film.

DVDnut 03-14-05 03:17 PM

151, 152 tomorrow

FatTony 03-14-05 03:36 PM

141 for me, with several more on the horizon. Also, another 20 or so that I WOULD buy if they were given higher-quality releases.

EDIT: Also, I'm happy to say I don't own a single one of the bottom 100.

Sorry, :blush: I meant 100 titles in my 217 strong collection are in the top 250 IMDB list. That's how one gets the average.

Dimension X 03-14-05 04:01 PM

175 of the top 250

MEJHarrison 03-14-05 04:52 PM

I have 87 with 5 more ordered.

Admiral7 03-17-05 03:24 PM

65. Some of them I'm waiting on Special Editions. Some of them are not out on DVD yet. Some of them I will never own. But 65, as of today.

I'm also proud to say I own only ONE in the Bottom 100 List -- Marci X.

Squirrel God 03-17-05 03:40 PM

I just checked the bottom 100 and I own one of them:

RoboCop 3

And that's only because it was part of the trilogy boxset. However, I don't think it was that bad that it deserves to be in the worst 100 films of all time. There are plenty that were far, far worse.

Grolim 03-17-05 04:04 PM

I've got 62 of the top 250, which represents 19% of my total collection.

Only 1 on the bottom 100 - Superman IV as part of the boxed set.

Maxflier 03-17-05 04:37 PM

Street Fighter is the only one from the bottom 100 that i have.

hanami 03-17-05 07:36 PM

I have about 158 movies from the top 250 list.

apchrist 03-17-05 09:29 PM

80 of the top 250
7 of the bottom 100 (including MST3K's)

tool_army 03-17-05 10:19 PM

I own 30 from the list. About 20 off the IMDB list are on my wishlist including The Godfather trilogy and the Star Wars Trilogy.

:lol:
well.. I joined dvdtalk back in the click for free stuff days.. and I got my first 300 or so dvds for free.. I was up to about 500.. Then started selling them off on half... Im probably down below 200 i guess... Havent compared mine against the list, because I doubt its going to be high.. The ones I kept, were groups I really like (my kevin smiths, stephen kings, star wars, simpsons, family guy, etc....). oh, and the 50 or so that griffin has (disney, pixar, dreamworks, etc.. cartoon movies)

The Ferret 03-25-05 10:50 AM

19 of my 27 movies are on the list.

73 +/-

That isn't the greatest list I have ever seen, but it does have quite a few of the notable movies on that list.

bis22 03-25-05 11:30 AM

Looks like at least 82 out of my 266 titles. I had no idea I had so many until now.

bralph 03-25-05 11:40 AM

65, not including ones I've owned and since traded or sold. That would add 6 more.

Heartagram 03-25-05 12:09 PM

37 - on the top

3 - from the bottom.

156 total. I will own them all, oh yes, I will own them all... I collect off of this list, which changes too often for my taste, along with a bunch of other lists... I intend to see all of the 'classics' as voted by pretty much anyone.

brainee 03-25-05 02:31 PM

Top 250: 53
Bottom 100: 3 (proud owner of "The Robot Monster", "Bride of the Monster", and "The Brain that Woudn't Die")
