Does anyone still buy and collect DVDs?

I have a short list that I look for. Many are replacements for ones I used to own.

My theory is that when my eyes are too far gone to enjoy books, I can still fall asleep in front of the TV

 

I just bought the Valhalla Rising BD, UK edition.
Replaced my lost Chatos's Land dvd.

 

Recent arrivals to my library: A Bridge Too Far / Adventures Of Robin Hood / Big Trail / Blue Denim / Blues Brothers / Clash By Night /
Custer-Complete Series / Hatfields & McCoys / History Of The World, Part 1 / My Friend Flicka-Complete Series / Ned Kelly / Norma Rae /
Of Human Bondage / Pebbles & Bamm-Bamm Show-Complete Series / Pee Wee's Big Adventure / She Wore A Yellow Ribbon / Three Stooges
-G.I. Stooge / Three Stooges-Stooges On The Run / Young & Innocent. I don't think I'll have a problem if the cable goes out.

 

I remember both "Custer" and "My Friend Flicka" being at Walmart a few years back (I think there may have been a new season release of "Daniel Boone" out then too)... Both of the shows would have been blind purchases for me, as I had never seen either of them, but I only bought "Custer" and planned on buying "Flicka" the next time I went in... Of course it was gone when I was gonna buy it, so I never did get the set...

Question about the "My Friend Flicka" series: Are these episodes in color or B&W? I ask because according to Wikipedia, it was shot in color but originally aired in B&W on its original network, but aired in color later on. So, I'm just wondering how Shout! factory decided to release them?

Just last week, I picked up "Hatfields & McCoys" out of Walmart's $5.00 bin... I never seen that either, but it sounds good.

 

I was at the flea market over the weekend and picked up all the MGM James Bond special edition DVD's from "Dr. No" to "A View To A Kill" - 14 discs for $6.

 

Sorry for the late answer. I had to wait till I got home from work. Here's your answer:

 

Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde - 1941 - w/Spencer Tracy in the lead. Always liked this, never going to BD, finally grabbed a copy. Looks great, sounds great.

 

I had some luck at the thrift store last night:

Barney Miller-Season 1
Larry Mc Murty's Streets of Laredo
Waylon Jennings-Nashville Rebel
Elvis Presley-'68 Comeback Special Edition
The Long Ride Home
Rock, Rock, Rock
Roy Orbison-The Anthology
Ricky Nelson-Greatest Hits
3:10 to Yuma (original version)
Cat Ballou (still sealed)
Second Fiddle to a Steel Guitar
Legendary Peformances-Marty Robbins
Jailhouse Rock

 

I highly recommend "Road To Nashville"
road to nashville | eBay

 

Agree. I also acquired that this year.

 

I looked at the listing-That does look like something I'd enjoy.

 

Just an update... the site managed to remain active for the past year, but it will now be shutting down on July 30th. Export/backup your collections now if you haven't already.

Apparently the guy who took it over last year passed away recently, and I guess they don't have anyone who's willing/able to keep it running. A real shame.

 

Had to pass on two dvd titles the other day. No room to fit items in bag. Hate having to do that.

 

6 on order at the moment.

 

Just picked up 8 Criterion titles with their 50% off sale.

Received 11 titles from the Twilight Time closing sale.

Have several titles pre-ordered.

So I’m still buying titles for my collection, mostly blu-ray and 4K discs now with the occasional DVD if it’s not available on blu-ray.

 

Just bought 2 boot $40 each Japanese ones!

 

Its loss is going to take many people by surprise. I don't think many people are aware that Filmaf is shutting down. That site has a lot of user generated data that will go down the drain when it disappears.

 

New additions I treated myself to: Camille / Do The Right Thing / Kitty Foyle / Malcom X / The Trouble With Harry. Very happy to own them.

 

Yes, but have a small (100 or so) Collection...starting to buy some blu-Rays since I have an Oppo
Nothing like my unhealthy music habit...

 

Found a new record store. Lot of vinyl/cds.. but very meh stock. Luckily the shop sold DVDs.. bought 7.

 

I just picked up the Chariots of Fire blu ray book. Movie and four song CD included.

 

I bought Volumes 2, 3, & 4 of the "Looney Tunes-Golden Collection" at Barnes & Noble the other night... (I bought Volume 1 at Walmart a few weeks earlier.) I bought"Gunsmoke-The Final Season" at B&N too...

 

Let's Make It Legal / Ride Like A Girl / The Lords Of Flatbush

 

Just ordered a Region 2 New Avengers (Steed and co) set to see if the DVD player I just got that claims to be multi-region works. Fingers crossed
