You know what's sickening about collecting blus? The fact that there is still at least 80 movies (and that's on the conservative side) that I still have to get. Well I don't have to, I want to.:o But there are catalogue titles that are missing from my collection that in most circles (true collectors like yourself and many others on this site), would be considered criminal for not having. Even in a best case scenario at $10 a pop (wishful thinking), we're still talking $800.00!:eek: And let's not forget to add in the upcoming releases of new movies, the expenditure is ongoing!:( I know it's a part of the hobby. I just do not want a repeat of what I did when I purchased DVD's. At one time, I had over 1000 DVD's! Half of them were blind buys. 1/3 were easily movies the after one view were recipients of the "Never will view ever again award"!

Luckily thus far, I have been more selective about the movies I choose. I would say all of the titles in my collection has been or will be viewed more than once. "The Fall" and the original "The Day the Earth Stood Still" will most likely never be seen again.

"The Fall" was a real disappointment.



It came out when those mind twisting, dark fantasy movies where in abundance,... Pans Labyrinth, Mirror Mask, The Spiderwyck Chronicles, Ink Heart, The Bridge to Terabithia, etc,.... I really thought it was going to be interesting. The cinematography was impressive, but the story just didn't work for me. Have you seen the movie?

I hear ya. I don't have a lot of movies that are considered "must haves" in my collection either. My collection pales in comparison to others. Hell, I haven't even broken the 200 mark. It's easy to forget how much we have invested in the movies themselves. If you're like me, I'll buy a title one week, maybe two titles the next and some weeks nothing. So over time it's really adding up, but it's so spread out, it doesn't seem like much.

Never seen The Fall. I vaguely remember seeing commercials for it. But it was quickly forgotten.:D

Thinking about it, the reason my blu collection is so small, I only buy movies I know I want to watch again. Which is mainly action/adventure, sci-fi and comedy. Or of course kids movies, which I enjoy just as much. I can tell you this, The Notebook is not nor ever will be in my collection.:p

If they started pulling over people for speeding they'd never have time for anything else. Here, the right away goes to the biggest or more aggressive vehicle, pedestrians don't even rate.

I like it. Slow traffic and pedestrians git outta the way!:rock::D

Good evening, Mike.

I ended up with chicken Pad Thai for dinner. Not quite the BBQ I had envisioned.:D

I've heard good things about Scream 4. Looking forward to your thoughts on it.

Have fun and don't get too scared!:p

It is indeed snowing here. It's actually a rain/snow mixture. I'll tell you why it's raining/snowing. Because I got a carwash today.:doh: Yep, without fail. All any drought plagued country needs is for me to wash my car there. Rain will fall within a matter of minutes.

Your dog rocks! What's his/her name?

Also have about the population of Canada crammed into an island half the size of Nova Scotia, and the center of the island is mostly mountains and no one lives there. A bit crowded.

Life is comfortable here, why I have been here for 12 years. I don't work too hard and I can keep myself and my wife happy so it's all good. Sure I'd like to have a lot more disposable income, but who wouldn't.

Darn you, you wash your car and everybody in the USA gets rained on. Stop that! :talktothehand:

The dog is a he and his name is (my wife gave him his name) Shelby GT Mustang. And the name sort of fits, he has two speeds stopped and full speed. He is the third Rat Terrier that we have owned over the years.

Good evening, or is it morning, Mike.

All the reviews I've read say Scream 4 is awesome. I May have to check this one out too.

We awoke to snow on the ground today.:eek: So I thought it's time to head somewhere warm. So I took my kids to Rio... in 3D.;)

Have a great weekend!

Howdy, Mike.

Did you make it to Scream 4 today? If so, how was it?

Have a great rest of the evening. I'm about ready to fire up the ol' DVR and watch the new Burn Notice movie. The fall of Sam Axe.:rock:
