Most "dips" for one title - Blu-ray Forum

Jish · 09-08-2007, 05:02 PM

I am curious what is the most dips anybody on this forum has made for one title.

I am considering breaking my record with Labyrinth Anniversary edition DVD. That would be a triple-dip for me (standard, superbit, and now this) and that is only on one format!

Who has the record for most dips?

I definitely won't set any records, but I had the James bond movies on VHS, then DVD, and I will be getting them on Blu-ray for sure. Oh and same goes for StarWars.

The first Star Wars. Somewhere, George is kicking back with an ocean view.

Halloween - VHS > 3 Anchor Bay DVD's I still haven't decided if I'll get the BD release.

Star Wars - VHS > VHS Widescreen > Laserdisc (Definitve Collection) > Laserdisc (Special Editions) > DVD

James Bond - VHS > VHS widescreen > DVD Boxsets > DVD "Ultimate" boxsets.

Paramount and Star Trek. They must have a factory dedicated to the stuff.

INDEPENDENCE DAY: 5 copies

VHS copy (1) that my VCR had destroyed so I bought another VHS copy (2). I then bought the DVD when it came out (3). From there, I bought the 2 disc special edition (4) DVD that came out and when the blu-ray version is released on Dec 4th, that would make #5.

ENEMY OF THE STATE: 4 copies

The VHS copy (1). I then moved on to DVD (2) and the Special Edition DVD (3). I now own the blu-ray (4).

blubyyou · 09-08-2007, 05:39 PM

I would have to say atleast 4 dips for many many movies. I usually buy the initial release then the new uncut version then the directors cut then I buy the anniversary editions. I guess that is why my DVD collection is currently over 1000 disks. I think I buy about 10 -15 DVD's a week

BStecke · 09-08-2007, 05:41 PM

I haven't really double diopped on many titles . . . most were upgrades either from DVD to Blu, with the occasional purchase of an upgraded/remastered DVD (Highlander, for one, the first Highlander release was AWFUL!).

As far as a title that has had lots of dips, how many versions of Army Of Darkness are out there? I think there are at least 6.

I only have one movie with 3 dips. Fifth Element on dvd (lost it), then the first blu-ray version and the remastered. I will end double dipping all of the movies I bought on dvd with blu-ray at some point.

Same here, its only a matter of time, I did it when I went from vhs to dvd so of course I'd do the same with Blu.

Are you saying you bought Fifth Element on BD twice? not sure if I'm understanding your post correctly.

They did the whole replacement thing for 5th element, you trade in your copy and get the remastered one.

Yeah I know, I did the trade in for mine. I was just wondering if that's what he meant, or if he bought the movie twice.

Ah kk, I wish they would do the exchange program with a few more of the early releases, all well.

Blu As Hell · 09-08-2007, 08:39 PM

I remember a thread like this before and I talked about "Purple Rain"...now I'll talk about Superman and Superman Returns.

Superman: 3 times on VHS,1 time on laserdisc, 2 times on DVD, 1 on HD DVD, and 1 on Blu-Ray.

Superman Returns: 3 times on DVD, 2 times on HD DVD (that idiotic combo disc defect) and 1 time on Blu-Ray.

and for old times sake...Purple Rain: 2 times on VHS, 1 time on laserdisc, 2 times on DVD, 1 time on Blu-Ray.

I just realized that I need a life....:P
