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?

Bubba Ho-Tep is fantastic. Had it on R1 for quite a while now. I'm really surprised by the response it's got over here for a film that didn't even have a national cinema release in the States and instead just went on tour.

Just ordered Bubba Ho-tep and Jackie Chans first strike. I also laid on my arm for a while and now it's almost completely limp.

Just ordered Six Feet Under Season 3. It sucked, but I want the chance to watch the episodes without week long gaps inbetween.

I got a 3 for 2 from Woolies, on The Alamo, Rocky and X-Men. I got Little Britain : Series One for full price (a few moths back) and also got Spider Man cheaply from the 'net.
