Before DVDs came along there was VHS. I never bought a single movie on VHS, my brother only bought 3 (SE Star Wars) and my younger brother about 10 (a mix of 80ies films like Planes, Trains & Automobiles and Red Dwarf).

But now we seem to buy DVDs all the time, collectively we have just under 200 DVDs now and we buy atleast 1 DVD a week as a family. (we used to rent a lot but we dont anymore and the nearest cinema is 30 minutes drive away). I guess it is good news for the television and film industries. Anyone else noticed that they're buying more DVDs than they did VHS?

My recent DVD purchase was Donnie Darko Prism Edition. At a very nice price of £4.99 to encourage those who wouldnt have bought the film otherwise, despite having no special features. It's a very interesting and unusual film nothing like I've seen before.

I also pre-ordered a DVD boxset. Most of you are too young and would probably confuse it with the awful Matt LeBanc movie that came out years ago. It's the Lost In Space Series 1 boxset. 8 DVDs, 31 episodes, a collective running time of 23 hours and 42 minutes (possible marathon attempt?) At a nice price of £39.99 "DANGER! DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!"

Anyone else buy anything on DVD lately?

The last DVD I bought was 'Tiger on the Beat' from the HKL label. I'm still waiting for it to be delivered.

Does anyone else like the Hong Kong Legends label?

The Truman Show is genius, easily Carey's best film he's ever made, proves that he's actually an actor and not just a mentalist. I may actually get it.

As for my last purchase, Hero for £7.30 inc. postage, haven't recieved it yet though.

The Truman Show arrived this morning; courtesy, once again, of good-old CD-WOW! - and, only £6.99. :)

Althought, saying that, they told me they won't be able to dispatch my pre-order of The Matrix Revolutions until the 5th (Monday), because they are "temporarily out-of-stock". :P
