LOL, i have 9 movies currently out atm... just venting.. glad to see the enthusiasm towards blu-ray, but man...

"Hey Joe" you got 100's of movies, Can I borrow a few???

and I can't say no.. cuz I'm a nice guy.

It's cool being the "blu-ray guy" in my family/circle of friends.. but now it's time to share lol

All the bragging I've done about blu-ray movies is coming back to bite me in the buttocks!!!

I get the same treatment, I also have quite a few movies. I am not stingy but I take care of my stuff and other people dont. My family has destroyed some of my stufand I get things like dude its just a movie, or its just the case who cares?

i don't understand how people can justify that crap. they borrow something of yours, that you spent money on, and they don't take care of it??

I dont loan my crap to anybody. I only have ONE friend that I trust and I will loan him anything he wants, cuz he takes care of them and respects my property. He is the same way with me, he'll pretty much let me borrow any movie or game I want cuz I have respect for other people's property and I take care of the stuff.

I require a $100 deposit that's non-refundable after 3 weeks if the movie isn't returned. So far, no one has made the deposit.

assydingo · 01-03-2009, 03:06 PM

I only trust my mom, her boyfriend, and a friend of mine. Surprisingly the friend is 16 and treats his stuff better than my older friends.

Once I let a girl borrow Devil May Cry 4. She had just got an Xbox 360 and I felt like being nice. Damn I miss that game...

Counter their saying that by saying "Well in that case, go buy the movie, since it's 'just a movie'".

My rule for loaning out dvds and blu-ray are simple. I don't. That's why they are in pristine condition. Not a scratch.

I'm sure most of you have seen this, but in case you haven't, one of the best rants I've seen concerning the loaning of movies.

Best to keep a little running Library list to know who's got what... I've long done that for both DVD and Blu... saved my ass a couple times
