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?

I would love to have Tintin DVDs ^^

Brother bought today FLCL Vol. 2 and Love Hina Vol. 6. He also bought some James Bond games for the Xbox instead of FFX-2.

Hehe... Tintin box set. 21 Films for £30 quid.

And the Monty Python box set.

Not great.

Today I got out 200 smackers to buy some new clothes... ended up sending 20 quid on DVDs and going home.

Ah well.

I bought Donnie Darko (you freaks better be right about it, if it's rubbish I'm blaming you lot) Office Space, Get Shorty and, for another trip down memory lane, Innerspace, which I just watched now. Ah, happy memories.

Not bad for 20 quid.

Just ordered Finding Nemo off of Play.

Hoping it might come a bit quicker than normal (it normally takes them about 4 days to get it to me)

Bruce Almighty - took it back, watched it , hated it, took it back to the shop, then wouldn't take it back, took it home, smashed it then realised that it was not bad.
