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 Simpsons: Complete Sixth Series (Limited edition version)

The quality of the packaging is poor to say the least. If it wasn't for the fact that it's "limited edition" then I would have gone for the standard version.

Some quality episodes though. Getting towards the prime era of the show.

Got that and the Supremacy. Identity is good and the 2nd one is pretty decent.

Haven't watched any of it yet, but it'll have to be something special to live up to season 4.

Well I never said I bought it, but wished we had this one and not the other, but I too would love one with extras, I'm not sure if this one contains any. Probably not.
