AVS has a thread going comparing the collections of HD-DVD supporters by combining the number of owned and pre=ordered titles. I was close with a 63 total but no cigar. Anybody here break into the top ten?

http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...3&page=1&pp=30

nowhere close for me at the moment. I'm only at 24 combined with currently owned and preorders.

I'm at a lowly 9, but I've only had my player 2 weeks.

I'm currently number 1.

I'd suspect the top people are going to flip-flop back and forth so many times its not funny.

58 for me, and it was less than two months ago that I said I would not get into HD-DVD until the format war was decided. So much for willpower/rational thought.

"Only" 30 right now, which is way more than I expected to have at this point.

73 including the MI box set as 1, 75 if 3.

I'm number 10 on that list.

Well, I can't really participate, as I no longer pre-order discs until I find out which ones I'm getting (and not getting) to review.

62 including pre-orders.

Just keep your preorders at 0 then and list the ones you have. That is what I am doing. The only reason I have any preorders up right now is because of the google deal.

I've got 40 with 3 coming in to review.

11. I only buy movies I plan on watching more then once. Plus my 300+ DVD collction is sufficent enough.

It's about quality, not quantity. I'm not going to simply buy a movie to "support the format" because for me there's no reason to have absolute stinkers like 2 Fast 2 Furious and Doom etc. even if the picture and sound is stellar.

Sorry, 41. I forgot about the New Orleans Concert.

Good for you?! Some people may have actually enjoyed those though.

31 for me, nowhere close to the top 10.

Oh and I am glad to have both Doom and 2 Fast 2 Furious in my collection.

Wow, those guys own a lot of really shitty movies.

I am up to 25 with preorders with 3-4 more I plan on ordering. I really had to buy a few clunkers to get my count this high. No way I would buy anymore crap than I already have to support the format. They want more of my support they need to ease off all the recent garbage and release more classic films. Warner is already doing a lot of this though so big thumbs up to them. Without Warner Bros I would not be a supporter of HD discs.

People actually enjoyed Doom?

Note: This is not directed at anyone in particular.

I can just feel that this thread is going to get nasty pretty soon. Bottom line is just let people buy what they want to buy. They are not spending your money so why do you care? If you don't like a certain movie and someone else does, fine. No one is forcing you to like it. This thread was not started to debate what makes a "good collection", so let's try to keep it on track with what the OP wanted to know.

Yep, myself included.

I agree. Let's keep this thread friendly. Same rules apply as the ten or so dvd collection threads.

86 counting preorders.

86?!? I bet they all suck, you jerk!

Yeah, I definitely intended for this to be a friendly thread. To each his own as they say. I'm just curious how large of a collection others have built at this point. I'm having a blast building up mine and enjoy a wide variety of films. They don't all have to be classics for me to have a good time. I sent in a bunch of SD discs that we never watch for store credit to offset part of the expense of getting to my goal of only wanting upcoming titles. I'm about at that point now and have a decent size collection to watch while waiting for new releases.
