I have 42, I want 5 or 6 more. The rest I've never seen or have no desire to own.

This is a bogus list. Summer School staring Mark Harmon is not in the list.

Courtney Thorne-Smith was really cute in that film.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
