My DVD Collection

[Jay Sherman]

Have a look at this http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mc.asp?alias=Jez&type=O&sc=C&ls=T and let me know what you think. I've only been buying for just over a year. :wave:

[Munas]

You've got some good films in there, as well as some rubbish ones.

This is what you call a collection. (http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mc.asp?alias=Munasif&type=O&sc=C&ls=A)

[philipjg]

Driven, 8 legged freaks and two Tomb Raider films:cuckoo:

In my opinion there are some terrible films there mixed in with some good ones.

That is probably a valid comment for everyones collections!

:)

[CLH]

Indeed.

My collection is in my sig and there's a not inconsiderable load of rubbish in there.

[DM]

My penis is the biggest though. ;)

[jroadley]

Having recently sold off a large proportion of my collection (140+) I'd like to think what I have left is good.

Comments? (see sig for link)

Why don't you just put it in your sig like normal people, BL? :D

You have some films in there that I felt compelled to turn off when I tried to watch them :cry:

OK.

Fast Times at Ridgemont High
The Fog
Game of Death
The Killer
Versus

:gag: :lol:

Noticed you don't have Beverly Hills Cop 3 - well done. That was another one I turned off :D

And hey, you have Prince of Darkness! Great film! :)

please... tell me you're joking 'The Killer' 'The Fog' 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High' are :clap: :clap: :thumbs: :notworthy

oh, and i haven't figured out how to put it in my sig yet either :searchme:

http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mycollection.asp?alias=brunny78

[richdmx]

Check sig ;)

[Esteban - CotS]

hey, here's an idea. how about instead of just ogling other people collections, how's about recommendations...

example: if someone owns Braindead, but has never heard of Bad Taste (an unlikely scenario, admitadly) then there's a recommendation.. plus it's a loverly OTT Anchor Bay disc with dts an all. ;)

So, Bruce. you own Brazil Criterion, so you're obviously a fan. how about Strange Days and Delicatessen? (less-so the last one, but it has got a similar bunch of weirdo's underground)

sig included. :suspect: ;)

[chrisjm]

your id stinks! ;)

didnt see the critic on your list even though you are jay shermen! its a great set and should be your next addition as you obviously like it!

No joke. Truly awful films. Particularly 'The Killer' :)

I have Braindead but have not seen Bad Taste - it's on my list.

You turned off The Killer? I suppose you found A Better Tomorrow and Hard-Boiled impossible to stomach then.

And here's mine.

[Vulcan101]

Just thought I would add my twopence worth :

http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mycollection.asp?alias=Vulcan101

currently I am awaiting -

Quatermass + Quatermass 2 (R1) from DVD Pacific for £16 inc p&p :clap:

Trancers 2 (R2)

Bulletproof Monk (R3)

Babylon 5 season 4 (R2)

Buffy Season 7 (R2)

any suggestions for future additions welcomed.

So little time, so many DVD's!

[Chibouk]

Surely it's all a matter of taste? Criticising other people's collections because they don't have all our favourites seems a bit pointless to me.

By the way, click my sig to see a 'proper' collection! ;) ;)

Oops... sig not working :lol:

That would be true if everyone had some taste. Sadly, some people don't :lol:

Brazil is fantastic. Didn't like Strange Days and not seen Delicatessen yet.

[Jay Sherman]

Oh no what have I started. Can't we all just get along :thumbs: . I know I've got some dodgy ones but haven't we all. My trouble is I just can't resist a bargain. "Driven" was a fiver, "AI" was £6.99, and you can never have enough "Muppets". Also I hate to admit that I'm a bit of a wrestling nut. "No Way Out" tonite. Can't wait.

[rubber duck]

check out my collection below I just got rid of 50 I felt I would not watch again.

and ''The Killer' is one of the best action movies ever made. :D

[Vulcan101]

The problem with buying "Bargains" is that you could end up with a house that looks like this :

[Grimmy]

I have a big weakness for really crap films, I think everyone has a movie they like but everyone else hates

[Michael Mackenzie]

My collection:
http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mc.asp?alias=Whiggles&type=O

Some good and some not so good, but as far as I'm concerned I don't own anything that's complete crap. I'm sure most of you will dispute that though. :D

All killer no filler! (http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mc.asp?alias=agnetha&type=O&sc=C&ls=D)

Actually I'm having a bit of a clear out soon, where I'll wittle the collection down by at least, ooh, three...

Ok then Whiggles try and defend Tomb Raider or Dracula 2000. :p

Note I didn’t add Problem Child from your collection as it’s a great movie. :)

And Problem Child, of course, is in the "so bad it's good" category, so it doesn't count. :D

I know theres some rubbish there, but I like it. And the Flumps rule!

[Beowulf1970]

Hmm.. I've consumed considerable bandwidth looking at all you guys Collections.

I must admit, quite an eclectic mix. There's a few I wouldn't own myself but then casting an eye over my own collection I'm not in a position to judge.

I've also noted a few must haves. Am still trying to "round out" my collection, but try as I might it just get's wierder. As the saying goes (Rude word removed of course)

"Try as hard as you like , you can't polish a Tu*d"

For what it's worth .. My sig has my link.

[unlucky alf]

Have you watched all the dvds in your collection? You have almost twice the amount of what I have, and I've got 140 unwatched. :(

Yup, seen all of them apart from 6 which only dropped through the letterbox recently.

I also must've traded about 300 DVDs too, which were also all watched. Well, apart from those few that I turned off before the end ;)

It does take some time prioritisation though, I have to admit.

140 is a hell of a lot mate! How often do you watch a DVD?

[bruce-leroy]

Just a case of eyes bigger than stomach syndrome. ;)

[Squirrel God]

I'm like that with cakes :D

*looks at Beowulf's collection, spies Wild Wild West*

What's Marquis de Sade's Justine like btw? I've never seen her act but if Romina Power's acting is anything like her singing voice she'd give Sofia Coppola a run for her money...

[Jay Sherman]

:eek: Been having a good look at your collections and can't believe the size of them. They put mine to shame. Where on earth do you find the money or are you all lottery winners? :wave:

[Vulcan101]

The problem is (for me at least) that DVD prices have been dropping like a stone over the last 3 years so (thanks to CD WOW and Play). DVD's are now available very quickly after their cinema release (either here or abroad).

Plus when you also consider the cost of travel to my local cinema, tickets, popcorn (or similar snack), the near impossibility of getting a parking space plus intangibles like putting up with the tossers who think it is OK to chat to their mates, make phone calls, throw food, shout inane comments and advice at the characters it is CHEAPER to wait for the DVD and also more pleasant to watch it at home!

I love going to the cinema but only if the other people respect MY right to watch the film in peace without acting like complete MF's, the catch is that many people don't.

W.W.W. I like that one.. despite it being universally panned. (As I said I have "odd" tastes)

As for Marquis de Sade's Justine well... erm... less said about that the better. Saw it in a bargain bin in some shop and the front image caught my eye. Jack Palance is almost comical I must say.

And before anyone else points out my more embarrasing DVD's I will point out that Yes.. I admit it.. I bought the Anime Darkness series. but in my defence I've watched 10 minutes of one and have consigned the rest to the Shelf of no return ;)

[Vinyl-Pants]

Im forever pruning my collection, it approaches 300 and then i sell 20 or so titles. Im ridding myself of a few more HKLs, Monster's Ball, Men Of Honor, Evolution, MIB, Equilibrium and X-Men very shortly if anyone's interested :)

Yup, there's some absolute clag in there. It was just cheaper to buy the DVDs than pay for me and the girlfriend to go to the cinema...

Just thought it was about time we got this going again. I've added a few more to mine including the Bond boxset. :thumbs:

Just set up my collection in DVD profiler. It's not as big and impressive as some of yours.

You've added it to your signature correctly, however, at the moment only people with premium registrations are able to view their collections online. But DVDprofiler are working on it, so we can't see your collection:searchme:

[Tibby]

OK, :cry:

I only registered there yesterday after seeing this thread and thinking what a good idea it was and I was thinking of getting a premium registration anyway, so I'll prob do that now.

Watch this space....... :)

[Jowy]

Here is my little collection :)

I know I have a lot of rubbish but many are stored in boxes waiting to be sold; the dvds numbered 1-547 are my favorites

[MrSpeed]

Mell as well put mine here for anyone that wants a look :)

[ryonhilluk]

I haven't really been buying that much recently, especially with all the stuff in the bargain forums (including the Canon A60).

Kill Bill and Master and Commander should be here next week.

[jroadley]

In the middle of buying a house, so have to seriously think about storage for mine (See link in sig)

Doesn't help going to HMV and buying 6 at a time :help:

Go to your "user cp" (top of screen) and then "edit profile".

There is a box where you can change your sig.

Example of one of mine......

[ color=red][ size=1][ URL=http://www.thedvdforums.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=172142]Gold Trader[/URL] [/size][/color]


First bit is you can specify a colour if you want.Then I selected size 1 to make it tidy.The bit after "URL" is whatever you want to link to and finally,the text (in this case "GOLD TRADER" is whatever text you want to show up as your link.

I have left a space after a couple of the "[" signs or else it wouldn't show up here properly to show you.

[JAMESTALKALOT]

It's in my sig

[thebigboss]

Just seeing if its worked

After you finished did you click on "sumbit modifications" at the bottom of the page ?

[Esteban - CotS]

It doesn't include your sig if you use the quick reply option at the bottom either.

You need to click the 'post reply' switch on the right, and there'll be an option to include your signature....

It should be there now
