Seems like a sad addiction for some people on here.

That's right it is one. and you wouldn't have one if you weren't on here.

"Little Fockers"
"Thirst" (UK)
"X-Men: First Class" (Steelbook)

On DVD:
"Alien from LA"

"Morons from Outer Space"
"Storm Warriors"
Takashi Miike Collection ("Bodyguard Kiba" I and II, "Family" I and II)

On Order:
"Anatomy of a Murder"
"Chillerama"
"High and Low"
"Ip Man 3"
"Island of Lost Souls"

I used to do that in the DVD days. Any time I'd see a "somewhat decent" $4 or $5 movie in a bargain bin I'd grab it. In the end I ended with piles of pretty junk movies. But it wasn't so terrible because I wasn't losing any more than a rental fee (and in the end when I cleared out my DVD collection I was still able to pull about $1 or $2 for many of them... albeit now I'm left with about 100 that are basically untradable).

I'm going to try and not do that with blu-rays, but who am I kidding I probably will. However at least Netflix helps me cut down a bit...

Smillertime · 11-20-2011, 03:53 PM

I've got 8 right now, split evenly over BluRays and DVDs.

I don't have an addiction to Blu-ray purchases. This website is great for tracking the deals. I have about 60 Blu-rays, and I'm under 10 purchases away from completing my collection. After that, it's only new releases for me. Which actually makes this website rather useless to me after that.

bradley4846 · 11-20-2011, 05:39 PM

On DVD:
Great Outdoors
The Exorcist
and probably a few more

BD
Avatar
Crank

goldenrod · 11-20-2011, 09:17 PM

I have a lot (I almost only buy blind buy now since I have no time to go to theatres now):

Green Zone
Mirrors
The X-Files: I Want to Beleive

Yeah. I don't buy so many though. Red Cliff 2 is the only one I haven't got around to yet. Everyone has a costly hobby on here. Me included.

SwaggerJagger · 11-21-2011, 03:10 AM

I have wayy too many to list.
During the summer, I watched Glass House for the first time, I blind bought it probably 3 years ago on DVD. Sometimes I just get rid of the ones I don't watch.

Starman22 · 11-26-2011, 06:11 AM

The Town (Extended Cut) (2010)

Caesar Will Rise · 11-26-2011, 02:35 PM

ACMutd · 11-26-2011, 02:42 PM

Blind Buys:
Repulsion
Paths of Glory
The Killing
Body of Lies
Eyes Wide Shut
The Ninth Gate
Once Upon A Time in the West
Rango
Spartacus
Where The Wild Things Are

Also ordered Ben Hur last night.

jmbenesh · 11-26-2011, 04:13 PM

Apocalypse Now
Ben-Hur
Citizen Kane
Days of Heaven
Pulp Fiction
Se7en
Taxi Driver

I have seen some of Apocalypse Now, but haven't gotten around to watching it on blu yet. So I guess it isn't a complete blind buy.

Just bought Ben-Hur, Citizen Kane, Pulp Fiction, and Se7en during Black Friday week and am waiting for them to ship (except for Ben-Hur, which I picked up in store.

I started watching Days of Heaven one day this past summer after I had been out working a couple parades for the company I worked for, but I was so tired that I fell asleep. And then I popped it in one night a few weeks ago and fell asleep after about 45 minutes. I plan to watch it, all of it, soon.

Which makes Taxi Driver the only blind buy in my collection that I have yet to see any of. I got it for $7, so it was definitely at the right price, and my brother and dad both swear upon it, so I am not upset at buying it. Just gotta find the time to watch it.

Presence · 11-26-2011, 04:49 PM

I have a few:

Animal Kingdom
Blow Out
Carlos
Blood Simple
Raising Arizona
Days Of Heaven
Fear and Loathing
Gomorrah
Hunger
the Last Emperor
Once Upon A Time In America

Solaris

cto15 · 11-26-2011, 04:59 PM

Same here, I keep watching LOTR behind the scenes! It's keeping me from watching my blind buys!
