Guest KING BLING Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 The new LOTR with the extra 50 minutes is quality... Garden State, Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind, and Lost in translation are all great movies with romantic themes... Any Hayao Miyazaki movie is at least a must see, and I recommend just buying them. Aqua Teen Hunger Force ...shit, what tastes do you have? Sci Fi and Comic movies?

Pfffffffffft Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 this is a good topic... i personallyfind it a waste of money to build a DVD collection...i mean i might watch a DVD twice then never want to watch it again... i have friends who have these huuuuge collections and its just wasted money sitting on the shelf....they never watch them... so what is the point...?? anyone feel the same??

Herbivore Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 yeah... i just got a DVD burner, so i don't plan on buying another DVD ever. i'm kind of with Pfffffft on this one... but i think it's more because i rarely ever have the desire to see a movie more than once. the few exceptions are the ones i own on dvd. DETO, figure each of those dvds cost on average about $20-$25.... that's over $10,000 spent on movies that in 5 years will most likely be obsolete thanks to new disc technology being introduced like Blu-ray. not too long down the road, dvds are going to be today's VHS. on a side note.... Gnome, what DVD-Rs do you use? i've heard all sorts of stories as to which kinds are the most compatible for dvd players. any suggestions?

roadpig Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 my friend said not to get dvd's that are not anamorphic. they won't be compatible with the new tvs. the picture will have a black box around it. i don't know if that matters to you, but it does to me. just a dvd hunting tip froma friend. he saw i was going to grab office space, but he said i should wait for the updated rerelease on dvd...anamorphic, deleted scenes...etc. dvd to buy: wavetwisters style wars wild style bedtime stories (wyws) scratch the freshest kids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KING BLING Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 If you have a lady definately pick up the romantic leaning movies mentioned above, if she's at all into more artistic movies these will entertain both of you. If you can find it, 'East is East' is great and for action I recommend Ronin or The Last Samurai... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GnomeToys Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 Herbivore, I'm just using some elcheapo dynex 4x DVD+Rs right now, haven't had a problem yet, but then our DVD player is one of those things that's meant to play any burned media including DVDs full of DiVX AVIs and whatnot. Nothing like fitting 7-8 full length movies on one disc. The dual layer media is still too expensive but it's supposed to be compatible with my player. DVD-Rs had no problems playing it either.

SteveAustin Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 I recently picked up the entire extended edition set of LOTRs. One of my boys has a burner...so I don't really bother buying them anymore. Dude said he had something like 30 discs burned for me already.
