GB_StormTrooper Posted January 28, 2002 Posted January 28, 2002 I started this in another forum before, but I wanna know about the people here that have DVD players, so what DVDs ya got? I have a small, but growing collection Starship Troopers The Matrix American Pie 1and2 The Fast and the Furious........awesome dvd Anywho, just curious......
Obi Kwan Posted January 28, 2002 Posted January 28, 2002 I have also recently started my DVD collection. Here's what I've got so far: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Dr. Strangelove (or how I learned to relax and love the bomb) Superman I-IV Easy Rider Moulin Rouge The Muppet Movie and my new prize possesion.... Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (on VCD)
StormHammer Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 Well, for me it's a toss-up between getting the latest game or the latest DVD film... I also just use the DVD drive (with PowerDVD) in my PC for DVD playback at the moment, so my selection of titles is rather limited as well... Men In Black (Special Edition) Alien (Boxed Quartet) Deep Rising Tremors 2 This Island Earth Blade Tomorrow Never Dies My wife and kids have a few others, like Shrek, Toy Story 2, Star Trek Inusurrection, The Fugitive, Space Cowboys... Of course...there are a ton of other films I want to add to that collection - especially some of the SF Golden Oldies (some of which I already have on VHS). I have made the conscious decision not to purchase any more video tapes...I'd rather get the DVD versions.
Millions o' Monkeys Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 well why exactly would you buy vhs if you have acces to dvd ??? kinda like " VHS , half the qaulity , crap sound, But go buy it now"
OnlyOneCanoli Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 I'll try to list them, but I know I'll forget a ton. The Phantom Menace Saving Provate Ryan The Matrix Evolution Rush Hour 2 Jurassic Park The Lost World Jurassic Park 3 Big Daddy The Waterboy Bulletproof Happy Gilmore Billy Madsion Gladiator The Sixth Sense X-Men 61 Gone in 60 Seconds Monty Python and the Holy Grail SE Ferris Bueler's Day Off and last, but not least, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie I know I forgot some, but thoe are the ones worth remembering.
GB_StormTrooper Posted January 29, 2002 Author Posted January 29, 2002 I should get Gone In 60 Seconds, looks like a good DVD
StormHammer Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 Originally posted by Millions o' Monkeys well why exactly would you buy vhs if you have acces to dvd ??? Very true, but... 1. Until recently, VHS has (mostly) been cheaper than DVD. 2. Some films/tv series have not been available on DVD until recently (and some are still unavailable in that format). By conscious decision, I mean I actually purchased a few DVDs before I ever had anything to play them on, and also the fact that I will probably hold out on getting a film/tv series until it is released on DVD. I won't be getting any Star Wars DVDs until they bring out the boxed collection, that's for sure.
access_flux Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 i couldn't list all the DVDs i have there are about 60 -70 of them. i wish i had starship troopers on DVD.
Sounds Risky Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 I actually keep a list of DVDs I own. It's not a lot but I'm working on it: Alien Aliens Alien3 Alien Resurrection American Beauty Antz Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me Batman Batman Returns Being John Malkovich Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure Braveheart Chasing Amy Clerks: Uncensored Dark City Destroy All Monsters Dogma Dragonheart Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn Bruce Campbell vs. Army of Darkness The Fifth Element Fight Club Gladiator Godzilla The Green Mile Half Baked Highlander Independence Day Jurassic Park Jurassic Park: The Lost World Jurassic Park III Kingpin Mallrats Mars Attacks! The Martix Men In Black The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc Mission: Impossible 2 The Mummy Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie Pitch Black Planet of the Apes Beneath the Planet of the Apes Escape from the Planet of the Apes Conquest of the Planet of the Apes Battle for Planet of the Apes Pulp Fiction Reservoir Dogs The Road to El Dorado The Rock Rush Hour Saving Private Ryan Shanghai Noon Shrek Sleepy Hollow South Park: Bigger, Longer, & Uncut Spaceballs Sphere Starship Troopers Supernova Terminator 2: Judgment Day Titan A.E. Toy Story Toy Story 2 True Lies Unbreakable
Obi Kwan Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 Im bored tonight (with now homework to do surprisingly) so I'll shoot off my roomate's dvd's too: Beatles Help! Memento PI Blazing Saddles Fight Club Monty Python and the Holy Grail Austin Powers Austin Powers The Spy Who Shagged Me Enemy at the Gates The Simpsons: Season 1 Eyes Wide Shut Beware! The Blob Twin Peaks
Kestral Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 Heh, most of mine are anime... Card Captor Sakura Arc 1+2 and movies Neon Genesis Evangelion Ranma 1/2 Revolutionary Girl Utena Escaflowne Ghost in the Shell .. And more. Actually, the only non-anime DVD I own is... Fast and the Furious!
Lord_FinnSon Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 Here it goes: The Phantom Menace Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Unbreakable The Sixth Sense Magnolia Eyes Wide Shut Life is Beautiful(La Vita Ê Bella) Hook Edward Scissorhands Close Encounters of the Third Kind Jaws Lawrence of Arabia The Bridge on the River Kwai I also had American Psycho, Blade Runner, Matrix and Ghost in the Shell earlier, but after viewing them couple of times, they just didn't feel to be part of my collection(because of various reasons). Next I'm gonna definitely buy Willow DVD, but I need to find Region 2 copy of it somewhere with Finnish subtitles...
Darth Simpson Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie Just had to have it eh? Is that the only Turtles movie on DVD? I haven't seen any of the others on DVD. Not that they are very good, but it might be cool to have them.
JackTheGaffer Posted January 29, 2002 Posted January 29, 2002 Which version of Starship Troopers? The decent film or the GREAT tv series Roughnecks?

Guest toms Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 i might be tempted to get a dvd player now the dvd prices are coming down to a sensible price.. it just bugs me to shell out £20 for a film i already have just to get some deleted scenes and a commentary that i will probably watch a total of once... if the LOTR dvd lives up to my expectations, that might be the turning point though. (and it would be nice to be able to watch my VCDs on the big tv downstairs... )

Uh, the much higher picture quality is a pretty good reason to get DVD as well.
JR2000Z Posted January 31, 2002 Posted January 31, 2002 1. The Matrix 2. The Matrix Revisited 3. Gladiator 4. MI:2 5. The whole Gundam Wing series. (10 DVDs total) 6. Final Fantasy : The Spirits Within 7. GoldenEye 8. Tomarrow Never Dies 9. The World Is Not Enough 10. Star Wars Ep1 I think that it. So those 20 DVDs are mine, then the rest of my family has a couple more...
Metallus Posted January 31, 2002 Posted January 31, 2002 Akira Being John Malcovitch Clerks Dogma Fight Club High Fidelity Run Lola Run (Lola Rennt) Hmm, the rest are slipping my mind right now. There are many that I want, or have rented, that are trying to sneak into my mental list .
Sounds Risky Posted February 1, 2002 Posted February 1, 2002 Two new films to add to my list: Baseketball and Four Rooms.
Outlaw Posted February 1, 2002 Posted February 1, 2002 It would take a while to type out all my DVDs. Safe to say it consists of all the best sci-fi and action movies out there. I run these movies on THX speakers using a DLP front projecter for a very large and sharp image.
Broode Posted February 1, 2002 Posted February 1, 2002 Originally posted by JR2000Z 1. The Matrix 2. The Matrix Revisited Why do need to pay twice for the same movie? Originally posted by OCH Fight Club I'd just like to take the time to say that this is the best movie EVER. If you haven't seen it, see it now. Go. Rent it. Buy it. Watch it. Now.
CaptainRAVE Posted February 1, 2002 Posted February 1, 2002 I have no DVDs. But when Ep2 gets onto DVD im getting a Widescreen TV and a DVD player
Sounds Risky Posted February 1, 2002 Posted February 1, 2002 Originally posted by Broode Why do need to pay twice for the same movie? Actually The Matrix Revisited is a two hour documentary on The Matrix, and doesn't include the film. It also has little featurettes on things like the Animatrix shorts, Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolutions, and The Matrix Reloaded video game. It's like the supplemental disc that should have come with the movie in the first place. Originally posted by Broode I'd just like to take the time to say that this is the best movie EVER. If you haven't seen it, see it now. Go. Rent it. Buy it. Watch it. Now. Fight Club = good
