"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?

Can't stand Lil' Britain. It's so... Un-funny.

Shawn of the Dead looks good though, I might invest in it myself...

I'm planning on doing some shopping tomorrow. Hoping to get Little Britain, The Complete Black Books, Shaun of the Dead (at last), and Angry Kid. I don't know much about the last one but it looks pretty funny.

Oooh, I heard about that. Sounded good.

Creepy? Worth spending [price?] on?

Star Wars Trilogy...

...I know, I know. I had it on VHS already...

Pre-ordered Police Story trilogy boxset

Seinfeld Series 1&2
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust

My Clerks X came last Saturday and I've finally had the time to sit and watch it this weekend as I've been filming a short all this week. It's such a fantastic DVD especially a new documentary which is 90 minutes long itself and covers Kevin's life up until the selling of Clerks.

A must for all Smith fans.

American History X

Troy was posted yesterday.

I didn't actually buy, it was a present.

Jack Dee. Funny et great.

Chinatown. An oldie I suppose, from 1974, but it does have Jack Nicholson in it. Which automatically makes it good. And it was only seven quid.
