DVDs & Blu-ray Discs you Lust after ..
 

i Thought it would be good to have a dvd thread so People could discuss the latest dvd's or just talk about ones you own


today i picked up a copy of the very good world at war for only £85.99 there are no words in the Dictionary for how moveing this show is :(

Re: the dvd thread
 

I like my babylon 5 dvd sets :)

Um - And my Battlestar Galactica set.

I did have blakes 7 (series 1) but the WHOLE set was screwed up and I had to take it back.

I couldn't see me paying £85.99 for a dvd tho ;) (Although I have been tempted by the star trek movies set - but then they started bringing out the special editions so I'm glad I didn't)

Re: the dvd thread
 

I'm especially proud of my Jaws complete set (awaiting original jaws to be delivered)
And my entire collection of Friday the 13th movies, all orginal all suplied by the fantastic play.com.

Next one I'm ordering is the Rambo trilogy (hey i'm still a kid at heart, Rambo was my hero lol).

Re: the dvd thread
 

I'm in the process of collecting every movie by Angelina Jolie and Liv Tyler, I think they are both awesome actresses*.

*Not sure why but the PC term "actors" doesn't sound right.

Re: the dvd thread
 

:notopic:

Did you like the new series?

Thats out on DVD too..

Re: the dvd thread
 

I did like the new one - BUT - Although I did get it on DVD I also took it back as it was probably one of the worst encoded dvd's I've ever seen. VERY poor :(

The copy I taped on my S-vhs VCR was better - that's how bad it was.

Re: the dvd thread
 

yep you can get it for £10.99

Re: the dvd thread
 

the shield , series 1 , superb imho :tu:

Re: the dvd thread
 

Yeah - and when I finally get a dvd-writer I'll be able to make my own DECENT copy :)

On reflection I think my copy of 'flight of the navigator' on dvd is almost as bad - but that's an old film so I don't know what galactica's excuse is - except maybe it's ment to be that way - you know arty (grany) or something.

Re: the dvd thread
 

Waiting for the Special Edition of the Longest Day due out 31st May.

Building up my collection of 'Classic' War/Drama movies.

Re: the dvd thread
 

I'm hoping to get the 9 disc special edition of the Aliens Quadrilogy :)

Re: the dvd thread
 

on 19th July, they releasing a special 3 disc version of Panic Room and Black Hawk Down at £14.99 each at www.play.com. Bargain if you haven't got the originals already.

Re: the dvd thread
 

I nearly got it the other day off EBay-it was £38.00 :eek:

[Edit]-I noticed In Sainsbury's the other day that they were doing the Alien films on a 'buy one/get one free' jobbie, & each one was priced @ £9.00!! (not the Quadrilogy admittedly, but still!)

Re: the dvd thread
 

the next dvd i plan to buy is V: The Series at the end of July :tu:

Re: the dvd thread
 

Hamster Hater.... :(

Re: the dvd thread
 

Oooh a B7 fan. I'm sure my set will be equally stuffed, the problem is I got it through Horizon and it has Paul Darrow and Peter Tuddenhams sigs on the outside of the case. I also got a nice poster of the S1 DVD release with Garth Thomas scrawled on it.

Annoyingly they sent the DVDs in a Jiffy bag and the outer carton got a little bent.

Re: the dvd thread
 

:notopic:

Nah, just get the Director's Cut of Alien & the Special Edition of Aliens. They're the only two good films in the quadrilogy anyway ;)

Re: the dvd thread

I've already got that, along with the original Alien Legacy set. The quadrilogy is far superior, obviously, but there's some rare stuff on the legacy set.

I'm hoping to get the Neon Genesis: Evangelion Perfect Collection set for xmas! :p:

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Went and got seasons 3 and 4 of Futurama last night to complete the set - absolute class.

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Not a problem - but can you play region 1 discs? That would be a LOT cheaper for you m8... The same region 1 set is 34.99

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Splurged on some DVDs at HMV recently.

V for Vendetta, X Men - The Last Stand, Rome, and Battlestar Galactica (new version).

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

They were selling V for Vendetta at Asda for £8 last week - snaffled one up pdq!

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Mrs Gaz got me X Men 'Last stand' yesterday, I thought it was good, once the leap of faith to resurrect Jean was accepted, it built very well - and wasn't too long, either - titillation regarding a sequel was to be expected ;)

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

I'm proud of my completed DS9 series boxes and I'm looking forward to finishing friends this month as well.

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Bought Confetti on Saturday - hilarious! :rofl:

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Is that site free ?? and does it calalogue for you ? can you simply import a list or do you need to add 1 by 1? I have nearly 1000 titles now

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

if you have to put the dvd's in manually I'll go crazy...got around 400 dvds

and it doesnt look like a freebie Zing.... so not worth the hassle

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Ooh, just had an email that the complete Hornblower series is going to be out in a boxed set mid October :cool:

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

This from the site
Just enter the UPC from the DVD case and DVD Profiler does the rest!
If you have a DVD-ROM drive, its even easier. Put the DVD in the drive and let DVD Profiler recognize it automatically.
Don't have the UPC yet? Add it by title using powerful search criteria.
http://www.intervocative.com/dvdpro/Info.aspx

Still trying to find out if there is a free version :)

There is, and you get this
Free registration includes:

• Host your collection online with the My Profiler feature
• One-step entry - enter the UPC and DVD Profiler does the rest
• Download hundreds of custom reports and skins

Probably with pop-up ads, as the purchased version says this
Run DVD Profiler and My Profiler without those anoying ads.

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

I have used that site for a while. Takes a while at first but when you are only adding a few DVDs at a times its alright.

Back to the thread title, the new ultimate superman DVD set thats out on the 4th December, has 13 discs of amazingness :)
Here

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Great film. I think it was 7 or 8 quid in HMV. I was tempted by the special version (HMV have it online, didn't see it in the store), but decided against it as it's twice the price & I don't really care about the extras.

I liked it a lot. Not as good as no.2 IMO, but still cool. Magneto & Wolverine are always great. The new characters were a bit wasted though.


Jean always comes back from the dead. Got quite tiresome in the comics.


(There's a famous saying, "No one in comics stays dead except Uncle Ben"*)


*It used to be "No one in comics stays dead except for Bucky, Jason Todd, and Uncle Ben", but Bucky & Jason were brought back to life last year.


Looks good. I've already got I & II though, & am not too fussed about 3 & 4. I just want Returns & the Donner Cut of II.

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

You haven't got 1 and 2 from that box set though. The extra's are outstanding. It even includes some of the old cartoons and also the Superman and the Mole-men movie as well as a lot of Deleted scenes and 2 versions of Superman 1.

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

It does look really cool. I rarely bother with extras though.

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

i'm surprised my other half hasn't seen this thread yet... he has so many dvd's! Has anyone got any recommendations for insurance? A lot of household policies don't seem to actually cover them?! :confused:

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

They do, you just need to itemise them like you would a diamond ring etc. Take some pictures of the lot of them and tell your insurer that you house contents includes 500 DVDs at an estimated replacement cost of 12 each giving a total value for replacement of 6000 or something like that. I've done that for DVDs and CDs (all 800 of them).

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Season 1 & 2 box set of BSG (new version)

PotC - Dead Man's Chest


Shall be getting Supes next week.

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

The Ultimate Superman Boxset which should be with me soon :)

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

I never did get the Superman DVDs... planning on getting Superman I, Superman II: The Donner Cut, & Superman Returns on HD-DVD instead now.


Now slowly starting to build my HD-DVD collection.


Currently have:

King Kong (I really don't like it, but it came free with my HD-DVD drive & is good as a "demo disc" at least as the picture quality is v v good).

Batman Begins (awesome movie; excellent PQ).

M:i:III (very good, better than no1 & no2 IMO; excellent PQ).

The Departed (one of my favourite films of 2006; not yet watched the disc, although it's meant to be an excellent version)

Miami Vice (trading it in tomorrow, as I found it extremely boring; PQ was grainy although that's apparently intentional, sound was low & mumbly).

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

ahh cheers for that advice :) cuz the other half and me got around 400dvd's but thankfully all on a excell spreadsheet as well which is backed up on different email servers

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
 

Bye bye Miami Vice, hello Unforgiven.



Much, much, better movie.

Re: DVD's you Lust after ..
