# of unseen dvds in your collection.
 
I recently did a count of how many movies I still have to watch that I bought and are in my collection and I was just wondering how many the rest of my dvdtalkers have. It can be either unseen dvds or unseen films, your choice.

Im up to 68 unseen films. But I made a promise to myself not to buy anymore movies untill I lower that number to around 10.

good ? i'm probably 50-100, but i will still buy dvd's no matter what. i'll count sometime and give an exact.

treszoks 01-17-06 09:57 AM

0 :)

About 24 of 235 DVDs I own contain movies I have not seen. Now, that's not counting movies I have seen but have not watched the version I own on DVD, that would raise it a bit. Or including movies my fiance owns which I haven't seen, though our collections are kept together.

About 300. Unlike some others, I don't think this is at all a bad thing, and I'm in no rush to reduce that number. For me, DVD is all about providing access to great movies that I haven't seen, rather than about collecting things I already like.

phatboy 01-17-06 10:02 AM

around 100

glasschicken 01-17-06 10:05 AM

About 160.

Maxflier 01-17-06 10:07 AM

42 for me.

nemein 01-17-06 10:11 AM

I haven't counted but I'm guessing around 50 (out of about 1050), several are TV boxsets that I just haven't taken the time to get into.

Currently, DVDProfiler shows me at 117/1488 unwatched, or 7.86%, which I don't think is too bad. This includes 19 TV sets (which only count as one title).

One day, I'll be back to a manageable level of unwatched, hopefully by the end of the year.

Coming close on 600 (out of around 2,000), my backlog is massive. It's great when TV series go on hiatus 'cause i'm able to marathon a lot of titles. Since the return of 24 and The Shield the DVD backlog continues.

I will make it my business to watch Red Eye and Band of Brothers on DVD this week.

ShallowHal 01-17-06 10:13 AM

I'd rather watch one than count them. :D

tommyp007 01-17-06 10:15 AM

lots, probably 150 out of 700.

Bronkster 01-17-06 10:28 AM

Possibly around 200 - many of which being TV sets. As mentioned above by Illennium, it's all about being able to watch when I want on my own terms. I love DVD!

Since I work for a school, the Christmas Break helped me get down to under 10 unwatched DVDs including TV on DVD

spartanstew 01-17-06 10:47 AM

I currently have 94 movies (out of 500+) I've never seen. About 20 of those are Disney movies that I'm sure I'll get sick of as my kids get older. Another 50 of those are movies I might never watch, but that I got in order to build my library so that guest to my home theater have a wide selection to choose from. The other 24 or so, I'll get around to soon enough.

teamwinfan 01-17-06 10:50 AM

Way too damn many...

awmurray 01-17-06 10:55 AM

65/777. Not as many as I thought.

Exactly, I would say over 400 with my DDD and other Christmas purchases - but this will decrease rapidly now that I am in a watching rather than shopping mode.

chemosh6969 01-17-06 10:56 AM

I'm in the middle of adding a bunch of dvds since I've been letting my database lapse, but right now it's showing I will never catch up before I die.

Yes, that is 2221 movies I need to watch out of 4220.

After I catch up with entering the rest, you can add about 300 more :(

I remember when I got it down to around 500 movies at one point over the summer when my wife went to see her family.

FantasticVSDoom 01-17-06 11:10 AM

Probably about 10-15, give or take a few...

digitalfreaknyc 01-17-06 11:12 AM

I can't even begin to count.

Atreus 01-17-06 11:17 AM

57 out of 450+

darkshadowdog 01-17-06 11:23 AM

Proboly only around 12-15 for me. Plus i'm working through Stargate SG1 seasons 3-7...

matome 01-17-06 11:27 AM

Probably 50-100, not counting TV sets.
