Your DVD Collection

**Jester** · 07-26-2011, 10:56 AM

Hello all, as I'm working through my collection (I'm on my wife's Care Bear movies ATM. Last one...thankfully. There's only so much Care Bears I can take.) and I thought I'd post my collection.
I used to use Chasing the Frog (Wes pointed me too it, but I was never a huge fan of the way it alphabatized. (Titles starting with A like "A Beautiful Mind" were placed in the A's not the B's...sorry I'm anal.) but mysterycolor clued me into DVD Aficionado, and I've been using it instead. So...here's my DVD collection. Wish there was a place that catalogued VHS tapes, as I have quite a few of those, too.

Aw man I used to use both those websites. I had switched to the frog one when I forgot what Aficionado was called. I agree it wasn't very good. They also had the covers wrong a lot of the time and it would take them awhile to add new releases.

Thanks for posting that though. I've been wanting to do one of these again for awhile. And dude you own Zardoz. Hats off to you! It's become somewhat popular between my family and friends.

Bought it when I was reviewing strange movies.
Aficionado allows you to add to the archive as well. I can't tell you how many titles I had to add while putting my collection up. Mostly $1 shlock.

I don't know anything about movie collections, but that seems pretty serious. I once helped a guy move out of my old building and he collected movies, in fact, when he moved he had a tv, a bed, a couch and about 2 truckloads worth of VHS and DVDs.

I own a couple hundred movies on dvd, but most of them I've begun putting in big disc binders and tossing away the cases. I stopped buying movies a long time ago unless I felt they were absolutely worth owning, as it stands I buy maybe 1 or 2 blu-rays every few months, if that. Even at $4-$5, I don't find the majority of movies to be worth the price, let alone the space they take up.

Yeah, I've debated it, but I guess this is my equivalent of the sports car. It's my over-compensation. Though this is nothing compared to some others I've seen.

I did one last night. Glad I did too cause I had some stuff on DVD that I own on bluray I didn't know about. More stuff to get rid of.

I split mine into 3 groups, I also included some of Tiffany's stuff, no I don't own all of Sex and the City.
DVD: http://spitfireimages88.dvdaf.com/owned/dvd
Bluray: http://spitfireimages88.dvdaf.com/owned/bluray
Animation: http://spitfireimages88.dvdaf.com/owned/animated

Was surprised to see my total when all was said and done. Doesn't look like a lot but it's a fair bit.

There's no way for me to fully compile my complete dvd collection. I've been collecting since I was in Middle School (Way back in 1999). My collection spans 2 states (in as much as, 2,500+ are in NY, and a metric ****ton are currently in my NH apartment), so I'd have a difficult time getting an accurate list.

Thankfully, not long after I began collecting DVDs and CDs, I started listing them on Notepad files. I forget to update them sometimes and end up missing things, but they're pretty up-to-date (though there may be titles in there I sold or got rid of that I forgot to take off, and I'll soon be giving away a number of DVDs where I now own the Blu-rays).

Then there's a separate file for my Blu-rays, though they are included with the DVD list:

And of course DVD Aficionado if you want a more visual look. :p (I own a lot of DVDs this site doesn't have in their database and never bothered to add myself.)

It's ridiculous. I need to stop buying movies except for like the really essential ones. Gotta stay away from the five dollar bins also.
