"What's your recent DVD purchase?"

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?

Apparently the alternate ending was the original ending where Ben Stillers team won, but it didnt go down very well with viewers so they had to change it.

Heat
Serpico
Dances With Wolves

Dodgeball

The alternate ending is the laziest extra ever.

I think they should expand that in a sequel. Or maybe sell it to Channel 4 - celebrity big robot deathmatch.
Day 1 in the big robot house and Bolt takes offense to Buzz's dance routine. "NO! NOT THE WATER!"

I really hate VCRs, this week the VCRs in our two lounges have broke and refuse to play anything. I dont think I have enough fingers and toes to count how many times our VCRs (7 in different rooms) have broken over the years. We've only had 2 DVD players (6 in different rooms) go faulty on us but then they were cheap ones anyway. Both belonging to my brother, he's always watching some DVD and leaving it on all day and night. Still atleast a faulty DVD player wont chew up a DVD :(

I love that Robot fight. Cracks me up every time!
