Prices to stop your collection of Blu Rays

[derek_1999]

£15 is pretty much a limit for normal movies... an exception comes every now and again ie Aguirre SB - but I think my pre-order of that was around £14 anyway

I really only go for new release movies if I plan to watch straight away (or within the week). This way, I make sure the more expensive new release is opened/viewed, as it's a way to warrant the price.

My habit is then picking up stuff when they price drop from Amazon (it happens more than you'd think) and in 3 for 17 or 2 for 10 sales. It's these movies that are the ones I add to the collection - and some remain unwatched... until I go on a movie 'rampage' (as the other half calls it!) were I'll watch 2 or 3 films for 2 or 3 nights - or sit down and watch lots over a weekend (or Bank Holiday etc).

I go in cycles, my recent one has been Hong Kong/Chinese/Korean movies (modern and historical genres). This was kicked off by getting Shinjuki Incident and The Front line for 3.95 each from Amazon. I then started getting more from HMV 3 for 20 - especially when I realised Cine Asia was gone. So that became a bit of a quest to get OOP movies like 71 Into the Fire (managed to find one hiding in HMV - internet prices are mad £50 and more!).

So, no doubt I'll latch onto Italian neorealism next (that'll be expensive!).

I agree with Vashetti's prices, if all 2D's were £12.99 or even £10.99, I'd go for more new releases, rather than waiting for them to appear in promotions and sales.
