Your collection should be what you and your family enjoys. I also only buy those which I think I will watch more than once (replay value), which justifies the purchase vs a rental. I have many movies that I like, but I know I won't watch them again after the rental, unless they're on tv someday, so I don't buy those. You won't get the movies right every time either - I've traded/sold a few along the way that I knew I wasn't going to watch again. But the only movies you should own that you don't particularly like should be those picked by the wife or for the kids. Once your collection grows, don't worry - your friends and extended family are bound to find one or two that they can also enjoy with you (and then you won't get stuck watching something you don't like, which, even though you're being considerate of others, is not a time spent with others that YOU will enjoy - so what's the point, mind as well play cards instead).
