    This does make me nostalgic for when it was released on VHS and I absolutely had to have it. Man, did I watch that tape endlessly...

    Now that's a very specific kind of hoarder.

    While I understand what is behind your thought and not to criticize you personally, to some people just possession of so many copies is sufficient in itself. Something more understandable to me and probably you might be if they are different issues by Country of release.

    I didn't know about them before this thread, and after discovering them I wanted to love them, but their site is nigh-impossible to navigate.

    I agree. That's why I just go to their YouTube channel.

    I'm not worried about this person who's opted to decorate one wall of their sewing room with VHS tapes of Jurassic Park. What makes me uncomfortable is the fact that they choose to trap small plastic Dinosaurs in glass bottles and leave them to slowly cook on the heater. :sigh:

    Dodgy effects?! I thought the dinosaur effects looked fantastic in 1993 and I think they still hold up today! I'll take practical effects over CGI any day.

    Nothing quite like the extreme fringes to make conventional dorks (like me) feel a little more self-actualized...

    I should have studied to be a shrink, that's where the money's at.

    Putting Super Nintendo Jurassic Park cartridges in the refrigerator seems like something Yoko Ono would do for an art exhibit.

    I like it!

    I suppose a refrigerator is as good a place as any to store video games. Being able to keep the booze in close proximity is certainly convenient.

    Is the collector living in a trailer? That collection may serve good use as an additional wall of insulation.

    No, he's using The Lost World: Jurassic Park tapes for insulation- it's a much better use of them than watching the movie. :)
