Yeah you are all invited to a nice blu-ray evening with apocalypto on a big screen in my basement 

Great movie, must be amazing on a screen bigger than my 72cm telly 

And we are really ALL invited? Give me your adress; me, my wife, kids and dog are ready for visit!     

Ah, now I feel much, much better. 

Commiserations

We are now several over the 5000 mark 
Perhaps we should be classified as incurable addicts?

I am worried, just invested in Blu-Ray so I foresee a jump in my numbers until I have a clean-out in the summer

you have time to watch all the dvds before u die?

Probably not, But were having a Hell'ava lot of fun with Profiler.   

As much as I am impressed that there are those out there with such an unfathomable huge collection (and believe me I am impressed, and jealouse too, of course), I have a couple of questions for those lucky few amongst us:-

Do you simply buy anything and everything out there ?  I ask 'cos I'm stuck at around 600 titles and I really do struggle to find titles out there that genuinely appeal.  There is after all, so much dross out there !

Secondly how much of your collection have you actually watched?  Out of my unworthy 600 I have seen about 80%. Even though I'm single, no kids, and lazy (ok, I work, but I don't work hard    ), I struggle to find the time !!

I hope one day to be able to join this most exclusive of clubs but I fear either death or the bank manager will catch up with me first     

Happy viewing folks, Andrew

I purchase a wide variety of titles.  A lot of mine have been to replace an extensive VHS library I had already acquired and the tapes had either already worn out or were close to doing so.  I especially like the older movies from the 30's, 40's, and 50's, but also have collected specific series based on Actor/Actress or character (Examples: John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda, Shirley MacLaine, etc... or 007 James Bond).  I have watched all but about 40 or so of the movies in my collection.  Not to say I have watched all but 40 of my DVDs but as I previously stated a good portion of my collection was to replace my VHS tapes as those became available on DVD.  The one's that I have not watched are generally the more recent releases in the comedy and romantic comedy genres that I have picked up primarily for my wife and daughters enjoyment.  Hope this answers your questions.

P.S. Where some have hobbies that involve sports such as hunting, fishing, or golf my first love is cinema and old films so that is where my energy, time, and funds have been focused.
