I'm more of a physical kind of guy, I'm not really into the whole 'on-demand' thing. I like being able to go over to my shelves of DVDs and Blu-Rays and 'browse' my collection, picking ones out, looking at the cover art, reading the synopsis, stuff like that. As I write this I can glance to my right, and see part of my collection, like the movies themselves, each has it's own story! The VHS of 'The Lion King' I've had since I was a kid, my first Blu-Ray, a DVD I imported from America, those damn expensive steelbooks, the DVD I bought years ago yet still haven't watched, the DVD that's still in it's plastic wrapping, the movie I own on VHS, DVD, and Blu-Ray. Some have that real sentimental value.



Think I have around ten. Let's see:

-terminator 2
-Terminator 3
-Batman Begins
-The Dark Knight
-Toy Story 3
-Tangled
-Muppets

I'll be picking up The Dark Knight Rises at launch, an the classic Disney movies once they come down in price, but I'm mostly content with DVD since it is cheaper and not all movies scream for HD



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I think many people here are young and don't buy blurays, if they buy movies at all, probably dvds. Not dissing anyone though.

23, and i know of no-one who owns a standalone player in my circle of friends. I'm not a movie guy, though, i'm more of a TV man.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

not so many, maybe 20 (i count as example the alien box or planet earth box as only one). i bought hundreds of dvd's when i was younger and when there was no blu-ray on the market but then i realized that i don't watch most of them more than one or two times so i stopped purchasing movies like an addicted. rental is enough for a movie i only watch one time... nowadays i only buy them rarely when i really really like the movie or if it's a nature docu because i watch these plenty of times (or parts of them)

I have 10, one for each month since the moment I got a PS3, will keep buying them at the same rate for at least another year, and then I will review my policy.



Around 40-45.

Gaming on: PS4 Pro, Switch, SNES Mini, Wii U, PC (i5-7400, GTX 1060)

0 here as well. Played a couple on my PS3... really wasn't impressed.

Really Netflix+Hulu is a far superior option for my tastes.  I rarely rewatch movies more then once or twice, preferring new expierences.

 

Really based on Blu-rays market share either a few people are hoarding all the blu-rays or a decent number of people bought a few and then said "screw it".

Blu-ray is really underperforming even most initial critics expecatations I think.

I know i was skeptical of Blu-ray but thought it would of overtaken DVD by now just out of force of inevitability.

That is so nice! Ghibli blurays are region free right?

 

Only the Japan release is for all regions...hence the ridiculous prices....

Argh, I have now... And I'm trying to cut down on my movie buying habit :/

I've already been buying these blu-ray versions

Lool sorry, suffer with me!!!!

They look really nice, but I can't justify spending $87 on a better looking cover, or can I. nooooo.



Does it need to be my personal collection or can it be my entire family's? I have about 40 (Mostly old horror flicks) but my dad usually buys the latest stuff himself together we have like 150 give or take 10
