The Mother Fucker 26 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 No. I used to collect DVDs, but that was when DVDs were the thing and everyone was buying them. I started collecting Blu-Rays right after that but I haven't bought any new one in a couple years. All that stuff sits in one big box in the closet now. I debated if I should go through them all and grab the UPC digital codes off the cases since you can use that to get the free UHD/Vudu digital streams available from them at no cost. But even that is a waste of time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaz 2,439 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I don't even pay for netflix or pirate movies/tv shows anymore. I just watch streams on the internet(in bad quality sometimes). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I love the art, this really reminds me of vinyl which I was also considering to start collecting for. Anyone else into this kind of stuff? The Thing Terminator 1 and 2 Escape From New York Raiders of the Lost Ark Pulp Fiction Blade Runner Hard Boiled Conan Texas Chainsaw Massacre Dawn of the Dead Jaws You got some great movies in there.

That's not a picture of the ones I have coming but all of those are in there, also the original Star Wars movies the best they can be viewed completely untouched by fuckhead Lucas.

Yeah, and they are the best version. They tried mastering them on DVD but ended up making it inferior by screwing up the render. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,230 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 LOL, you guys are better off downloading the fan-made HD project that collecting and rebuilt the movie from various media sources at the highest possible resolutions and then color corrected everything.

Those 85 movies were only $70 ($0.82 a movie) and I tracked down a dual side player for $35 with its remote. It's a hobbiest activity and like I said I love film and technology, and this was the ultimate of both until basically 1998 that only people semi-well off could afford.
