What's the difference between bumping one and creating a new one? Either way, one spot is taken on the front page.

My first purchase was The Private Eyes with Tim Conway and Don Knotts - great, great movie. I spent $50 Canadian all told, getting it shipped up from the US back when the Canadian Dollar was around $0.65 US. I'm still glad I did it, too.

Rush Hour 2 when I think it came out in 2001. Plus a dubbed version of Jackie Chan's The Young Master (which dubbed or not is a damn fine early Chan film)

K-9:PI back in '99-2000 with my first player. Still haven't replaced the first two (VHS) on DVD

bigjim25 09-28-09 12:01 AM

I bought around 30 when I got my first player and Montogmery Wards stores were going out of business (most were around $9 each in '98 or '99). I know The Fugitive, Maverick, Twister, a few Steven Seagal & Sly Stallone DVDs were in the bunch.

Re: What was the first DVD that you purchased?
 
The first DVD I ever got was The Lost World: Jurassic Park. It was a Christmas gift to go along with the DVD player my parents got me (our family's first one, back in 2001; my, have we gotten up to speed since then).

Unfortunately, my dad was unaware that I had HATED TLW, so we brought it back, and I purchased Austin Powers 1.

Re: What was the first DVD that you purchased?
 
Yes, this thread has been here several times. I'll give the same answer I give every time too - Apocalypse Now - back on May 15, 2000 from Amazon.com.

You know, the problem with this type of thread is that it does not invite any discourse or discussion - just answer the question, click on the "submit reply" button and go on to the next thread. For that reason I click less & less often on this type of thread these days.

Bought the blue cover version of Caligula online from Ken Crane, even before I had bought my first player...which soon turned out to be a pretty cheap RCA model from Wal-Mart.
