The Unwatched Media Pile Thread: June 2021
Are you still working your way through the 4K discs purchased during the holidays...from 2 years ago? Do you have a pile of BDs that remain unwatched? A shelf of DVDs you've yet to see? Or would you admit to owning a box of dust-covered VHS tapes that you never got around to checking out? Maybe you've gone digital but have content you've bought, yet never started. If the answer to any of these questions is yes (and of course that's the case), then this thread is the place for you. It's a support group spot where you can track your progress in trying to eliminate those unwatched films or television shows in your collection.
Here's the instructions, courtesy of the former Mister Peepers, (now known as The Man with the Golden Doujinshi), who chaired these unwatched threads for several years:
That's all there is to it. Mister Peepers also created an optional checklist, providing folks with a creative approach to tackling the unwatched pile:
And should you want to go back and check your progress from a previous month...
Now what are you waiting for? Get to watchin'!

June Net Change: -5
2021 Net Change: -46

My Personal Unwatched Pile Statistics
- To watch more than I buy in all 12 months. My record is 11 of 12 months. I always seem to have a bad month (or two).
- To completely watch every unwatched BD I have. I had pretty much accomplished the goal during the early days of the pandemic of 2020. But then encountered a chain of Family Video stores going out of business. So now I have work to do! Starting the year with 184.
