I saw a trailer for MirrorMask and it looked pretty interesting--at least there's stuff to look at !

I got my copy of Beavis and Butt-Head "BUTT-O-WEEN" a while ago, forgot if I mentioned it, and it's pretty funny. VHS of course.

I'm still planning on going back for more too, but I may have to try some trickery to outmaneuver them this time around... They have certain movies on VHS that they aren't selling, but the only way they are identified is by a sticker on the outer plastic casing. All it would take is the ol' switcheroo and movies that aren't for sale, will magically become for sale. I might have to do this because most of the ones I want that they have left, they aren't selling... Monster Squad, Dracula, Frankenstein, The Wolfman, The Prophecy, Childs Play (All of them) etc...

i find nowadays that they'll sell anything VHS.
sometimes all you have to do is ask ...

I was pissed the other day. At the Movie Gallery, they had a copy of Vertigo on DVD in the sell section. I knew it wasn't supposed to be there, but I was tempted to peel a sticker off of any random flick and put it on the case. Hell, the only attendant was outside smoking a cig. I probably could have switched every price in the place had I wanted.

Well, Vertigo is one of those titles you can generally find. I bet you could get a cheep one on ebray or half.com

I did. That's how I know the sticker means those are the ones they won't sell.

crazy .. most places here are practically giving everything away that doesnt rent at least every day.

occasionally some idiot tried to get $5 for a tape but they just get stuck with them.

It annoys me....there's several stores around here selling their used VHS rental tapes, but they're generally at least $3.99, and one store wants $5.00 apiece for these things. The expensive store has FIFTY MILLION tapes and they'll never sell them all for five bucks! Begrudgingly, I have shelled out a few dollars to get a rare title here and there.

One store I brought a bunch of VHS from had fill a box for $40 (pretty big boxes too). Another place was just charging $2 a piece. I only found out about the place a couple of months after the sale was already on so I probably missed out on some good stuff. I managed to get a heap of cool/rare shit regardless and I was happy. I usually only buy VHS if its dirt cheap but do part with round about $10 (NZD) for pre-cert video nasties just because a lot of them are impossible to get. Hopefully I'll run into another sale like you guys have to fill in some gaps in my collection but I think I own the majority of horror flicks most of the mainstream stores carry..... but every store has its gems!

DVD:
Horror Hotel

Horror Hotel..................now that's a cool movie. Love that movie.

I remember catching some of it on TV as a kid. It was in the cheap DVD bin so I thought I'd give it a day in court. My give it a spin tonight after I'm done with Frankenstein :)

I picked up Scream today...

I swear, Im addicted. I go into to Shoppers at lunch hour, with absolutly no intention of buying a movie. Hell, until today I didnt even know they sold movies. All I went in for was a snack, and all I came out with was a snack and a DVD.

The EB Games near my house is having a 3 for $10 sale. Which I think is amazing. And they also have a Buy any 2 get 1 Free. They are all used DVDs but who cares because the people who sell them back buy them, watch them, and then sell them back. None of mine ever have scratches on them.

i dont think either of you guys understands addiction.

zwoti understands .... i understand ...

it aint pretty.

By comparison, obviously Im nowhere near someone like you. But for someone my age, with a minimum wage part-time job and who has only been a real movie fan for a year or so, I'd say Im well on the road.

:D well you two would probably have every movie EVER made between each others collections. 10,000+ hours viewing :p

in my case .. averaging 90 min a movie ... probably about 14.000 hours ..

zwoti has to be close to me by now..

I don't know.......looks pretty sweet to me.:D

when i was your age in the same situation .. there were no videos - it was albums i was buying .. and yeah - i spent every penny i made on vinyl.

i'd still be an insane DVD buyer if it was me as a kid now .... i have that kind of unfortunate personality ...

You should contact Guiness :) I wonder if there is a record for that?

That pictures awesome!

???

oh forget it - i missed newbs post ..

things are far worse now

the top 5 rows down are now pack to the point of bulging with DVDs ... 2 deep

the 2 rows of laserdiscs below that are packed full - i now have about 150 in boxes on the floor ..

The one of your shelves that newb posted up there ^^

I'm always moving places so I have to cut my collection down at least once a year so I can move everything cheaply. Its mainly horror now and I'd say I'd be round the 700+

Speaking of [email protected] imagine the "eagle will land" tomorrow.If so I will get it out for you first thing on monday.

I will keep you posted.

that would be sweet !

i need to know ASAP how much $$$ and how to get it to you - i dont want you to be out of pocket..

Scrubs season 1 & 2

I'm starting to. I used to only catch the sickness about once a year. It'd last for a month, I'd drop about $400, then I'd be fine. Lately it isn't going away. I've cut down on my drinking so I can buy more movies. This is probably good. I've also been trying to make it 2 weeks at a time on $30 worth of food (which I've become quite good at) This is probably not so good.

Trust me, I am 19 and just started collecting DVDs about a year and a half ago and in that time I have gotten about 260 DVDs. I think that is pretty good so far. Imagine how many I will have by the time I am 30. I can guessitmate about most likely close to 1000 DVDs if not more.

I'd have over 400 right now, but I sold my first collection when I moved:( . It just makes me more obsessive, you know? I look at my collection, and then I sigh and think about how nice it would look had I not sold off my old one.

i recently cut down when i saw my monthly bank statement ..

at one point i was spending about $350 per week.
(not including ebay purchases)

Now i just keep it to special occasions (store closings..etc)
where i can get crazy deals.

i imagine my next splurging will be at the horror convo in september ..

:eek: do they have rehab for that sort of thing? :p

Pretty easy to get carried away with DVD/CDs and LPs tho. So much cool stuff out there to buy.
