The Blu-rays that are just sitting there, unwatched

[Steve]

In my collection I have yet to watch:

Bram Stoker's Dracula (Christmas Gift)
The Day After Tomorrow (Christmas Gift)
Harry Potter 1 Ultimate Edition (watched about half and had to leave)
Harry Potter 2 Ultimate Edition
It's A Wonderful Life
Knowing
The Monster Squad (Christmas Gift)
The Patriot (Christmas Gift)
The Taking of Pelham 123 (came with my laptop)

I was only a couple of movies behind until recently. I've just been a little slow getting to the new ones, but they WILL all get watched in the near future.

I just think it's interesting how we let things pile up, or maybe like others, we don't. I was curious what some of those elusive films are for people or how many things they are trying to find the opportunity to watch. For me it's 13-15 movies and some Tv seasons. For others its 50 plus movies. No judgement, just seeing how everybody else runs their collection.

Heck mine would be bigger but I've sold probably 10-15 in the past for various reasons: Deja Vu, A Few Good Men, Last Samurai. I don't blind buy myself. I did with Vantage Point and Traitor. Interesting films, but not repeat viewing worthy in my book and I was out money, even selling them second hand. lol

No prob, it was more a general statement to some of the newer members. Besides there's more than a few blus that I have still sealed.

Same here, but I do have about 6-7 I haven't watched since I purchased. However, these blus were purchased over the past month and a half, during which time I had virtually no time to watch any films.

I refuse to buy films that I won't watch multiple times. Right now, I've stopped my netflix queue just so I can catch up to those that I purchased (which I couldn't pass up due to great prices).

I have nearly 40 in my collection that haven't been watched yet on Blu-Ray, but a good portion of them are movies from previous years. I bought them because I really like the movies and will watch them eventually, but there's really no rush. I don't buy anything that I don't think I'll watch many times over in the long run.

This September my brother and I realized we had nearly 200 DVDs and around 20 Blu-rays we hadn't watched yet. We put our feet down and decided not to buy anything else until we watched them all. We're down to 50 and 4 respectively. New Year's Resolution: watch everything by January 12, in time to purchase Last Action Hero and Hurt Locker!

jhiggy23, so funny you mention netflix. Mine practically went unused these past two months. Such a waste of like 20 bucks. I stopped mine Christmas day when I got all those TV shows and movies.

Actually yesterday was the first time in years where I went through Target without stopping in the entertainment section. Even on days when I'm in a rush I've breezed by to see if there's a sale. I am totally satisfied with my collection right now. I walked in, bought milk, and left. ha ha.
