Same here. I don't know why it's taking me so long to watch it, since I have no doubt it will be amazing.

Some others for me:
Aliens
An American Werewolf in London
Dark City
The Hurt Locker

JimShaw · 11-19-2011, 03:47 PM

Right now I have 299 Blus. Super 8 will be my 300th.

Out of 299, I need to watch 77

C-Knights · 11-19-2011, 03:57 PM

only 2 at the moment,

Cars 2 and The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec.

Danchez · 11-19-2011, 05:27 PM

Oh man, it feels like too many:

2 Fast 2 Furious
The Bank Job
The Bourne Trilogy
Casino
The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift
Memento
Quantum of Solace
The Social Network
True Grit (2010)
Water for Elephants

... Just not enough hours in the day, I guess.

VictoryAtNight · 11-19-2011, 05:39 PM

I have a lot of blind buys! The last two blind buys that I watched were The Ward and The Change-Up. Had I rented those movies first, I would never had paid new release prices for both of them. I may watch them again to see if I missed something in my first viewing.

terp_fan99 · 11-19-2011, 05:54 PM

36...and a lot of classics so feel free to make fun of me for never seeing them before and not watching them yet.

Guitar Joe · 11-19-2011, 06:42 PM

Beauty and the Beast (1946)
Bigger Than Life
Breathless
Carlos
Last Year At Marienbad
The Leopard
The Phantom Carriage
The Red Shoes
Revanche
Salo
The Seventh Seal

All are Criterions that I've bought during the current B&N sale, and I've got more on the way.

dcowboy7 · 11-19-2011, 06:47 PM

0.

AgentOrange · 11-19-2011, 07:22 PM

I usually am good at keeping up and watching blind buys right away, but right now I have quite a few I need to watch thanks to the B&N Criterion Collection sale (and also, because I've been spending alot of time on Netflix).

Chunking Express
Cul-De-Sac
Diabolique
The Leopard
The Magician
Orpheus
The Phantom Carriage
The Rules of the Game
Solaris
Wages of Fear

Also have a few non-Criterions from before the most recent sale...
Straw Dogs (original one)
Grand Prix
Battleship Potemkin (Kino)
Jarhead
The Road
Point Break
A Passage to India

The only question now is... which one do i watch next?

cooltobeyou · 11-19-2011, 07:35 PM

I have about ten blind buys, sitting on the shelf, waiting to be watched. I plan on that number going up after Black Friday week. haha.

Omen2002 · 11-19-2011, 07:45 PM

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo
The Girl Who Played With Fire
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

...and these 2 from the $1 sale few months ago at BBV:
Youth in Revolt
Chronicles of Narnia: Lion, Witch, Wardrobe

I think the only time I blind buy anymore is at BBV, like the 5 for $20 deal. That's where my other blind buys I have to watch, are from. I figure a $4 oops isn't too bad if I end up with a dud.

vicissitudes · 11-19-2011, 07:56 PM

I have about 10-15 that I haven't watched yet.

About 90% of my blu-rays are blind buys.

Pirate King · 11-19-2011, 09:29 PM

I have no idea. I am guessing at least 100 films on Blu that I have not watched. (On Blu or in the theater)

Jennifer Lawrence Fan · 11-19-2011, 09:37 PM

I got two more to add to the list.

From Paris With Love
Planes, Trains and Automobiles (Dvd, but stil la blind buy)

MrVengeance81 · 11-19-2011, 09:53 PM

Waaaaaaaaaaay too many. The bargain sections in stores always get me.

Caesar Will Rise · 11-19-2011, 10:08 PM

Red Cliff Part 2. Watched Part 1 last year, but have yet to watch Part 2. It bugs me, but I will make time soon.

Thank You · 11-19-2011, 10:09 PM

The follow-up question to many of you would be....

Why don't you learn from your past mistakes and don't buy so many?

Seems like a sad addiction for some people on here.
