Topic: Show off your movie collection

Whenever I go to somebody's place, I almost always check out their movie collection. I dunno why, I guess I'm  just a nosy little bastard. So yeah, take a pic of your shelf/shelves/Raiders warehouse to share with us lovely people! Have something embarrassing? Well, so do I...I actually own Transformers...

I'm not showing any DVD's because there really isn't much to show. I went through a generous phase a while back and as a result, most of my DVD's are scattered around numerous different places. Awh well.

EDIT: Replaced original picture with a better one.

I have more, but most excited about having all of my favorite director's films. The top one has never had a Region 1 release.

Re: Show off your movie collection

Oh, I like this idea. I've thought about starting a thread like this before, but I never got around to it.

You'll have to excuse the quality of these images. I took them with my iPod's crappy camera.

I have more bluray downstairs. My movies shelves are a mess. I need to re-organize them by genre or director or something. Kinda glad this thread popped up, cause it helped me discover that my DSLR doesn't want to power on. Either my battery is fucked or my camera is fucked. Glad it wasn't right before something important happened where I would really need a camera. (edit: NM, it was the charger. Good. Those are cheap.)

US blu rays seem oddly thin to me. I thought my Clerks II import was just a weird one.

Re: Show off your movie collection

Snail. You have five (SIX!?) copies of Titanic. I'm assuming that several of those are either documentaries or non-Cameron movies. I think at least two of them are Cameron's, tho.

You're interested in the Titanic a bit, yeah?

Re: Show off your movie collection

How did Death Race end up between Paul and Shaun of the Dead, and Hot Fuzz?

Also, where is your copy of District 9 hiding?

Re: Show off your movie collection

That is not the order they are usually in, I had to move them so it was easier to take the photos. And I didn't really sort them in any order. The corner unit where they are usually housed is very awkward to take a photo of, this way was easier smile

And.........I do not own District 9! Dun Dun Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun! big_smile

Looking at these huge film collections makes me feel like I'm standing naked next to Dirk Diggler......

Re: Show off your movie collection

All this can be yours if you get a steady job, and eschew John Barleycorn, nicotine, and the temptations of Eve.

Re: Show off your movie collection

I actually have loads of dvds, I just wanted to make that Dirk Diggler gag. Just like you wanted to use that Muppets clip. And thank you for that big_smile

I want to focus on buying Blu Rays, though. I have a new job, so hopefully, if I get more hours (and cash), I can buy some more. A new microphone for recording commentaries is top of my list, though. I don't drink or smoke- yay! smile

Re: Show off your movie collection

Unfortunately all my dvds are still at the bottom of a rather large box covered in assorted junk. I can get you a very nice picture of the box though.
