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?

My most recent purchase was LEGEND(the bob marley DVD)and Bo Selecta 2
Taxi Driver is a great film, so what's wrong with buying it?
And hell, I was just trying to spark some discussion. LOEG really bored me, and while Bad Boys II had a certain amount of enjoyment to it, it's not something I'd buy on DVD. If you like it then fine, but lets not lunge into a full on attack just because I questioned your opinion, eh?
Everyone's a critic if they have an opinion of something. I don't really consider mine any more valid than any of yours.

Personally I wouldn't call them travesties.
Admittedly I'm biast due to loving the original trilogy, and so while some people won't like these, I find them to be good fun. As long as you can manage to push past those awful, cringe-worthy moments.
