I have been doing martial arts for years, that's more exercise than some people get in a lifetime.

But then again, I have only around 200 DVDs, so i'm not a nutter collector type

[Genrewriter]

I have been collecting DVDs since March 1997...they just add up after a time.

That's putting it mildly. Quite the collection, Darren. You have impeccable taste. I presume Beverly Hills Cop III was purchased at the same time as the other two in a box set. Not having a go or anything, I just don't know anyone who would willingly purchase the third film.

Seeing that list makes me want to get a job reviewing movies.

[mccartney007]

One that I really want is "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" which is one of my favorites.

Yes, I'd love to own that film.

I actually saw an old VHS of that for sale at a movie rental store recently. I don't think it's on DVD, but really don't know.

"Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" is on DVD. Unfortunately none of the stores in my area have a copy! I'll have to get it off Amazon.com one of these days.

[Harmsway]

Yes, the third Beverly Hills Cop movie came as part of the box set - and it still has not been watched.

A number of those DVDs did come from the studios for review, I would say probably 50 of them were freebies. I'm eagerly awaiting a slate of five WW2 movies that Fox will be sending out for review this week.

Really? That's cool, will have to check the DVD section next time.

I was once recommended that movie and I found it to be really good.

[DLibrasnow]

I'm ashamed to say I have never heard of it.

[Qwerty]

It's quite good DLibrasnow, the tale of two sisters and jealousy, to say the very least about it, I haven't seen it in years, and it is very old, seeing that you love movies too, I would definitely check it out, you might like it!

[DLibrasnow]

Doesn't really sound like my cup of tea.....give me FLASH GORDON anyday!

[Qwerty]

I don't know why, but it just reminds me of some older Hitchcock films sometimes, I really need to rewatch it, just so that I can remember the entire film, as only certain scenes are popping in my head at the moment.

If not though, whatever you prefer.

[DLibrasnow]

Actually I went to the Hirshon Gallery in DC today and walking through it I had a real desire to rewatch THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR with Rene Russo.

[Qwerty]

That is one film I have been trying very hard to find on DVD for under $10, as I do want to have it, but I know it is not that expensive anymore. Brosnan did have good chemistry with Russo.

[DLibrasnow]

Just zip along to BEST BUY and shell out the money for it

Russo gives a great performance in that movie, and it's nicely directed by John McTiernan. The two of them deserve a lot of kudos for THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR.

[mccartney007]

Another film I'd like to see make it's way to DVD is Roger Moore's film "Crossplot." It's been OOP on video for sometime now

[DLibrasnow]

That is a movie I would certainly pick up if it came on DVD.

[Qwerty]

Nope, I'm not overpaying for that one, I've seen it really cheap and I'm not just going to pay some of the crazed prices certain stores like that cost.

[mccartney007]

The Best Buy in my area usually has some of the more affordable prices on DVDs, Qwerty.

[Qwerty]

Really McCartney?

If I had to judge it to the Media Play, Borders, Blockbuster, Circuit City and Barnes & Noble around here, it sometimes ranks as one of the pricer ones.

Maybe it was just specific films, I'll give them another chance.

[mccartney007]

Maybe it was just specific films, I'll give them another chance.

I think you should. It's a good bet you'll find it around $10.00.

Anyway, how cool is Crossplot's movie poster?

I will.

Hey, fantastic poster that is McCartney, I notice it has the older 'GP' rating, do you happen to know when that film was made? I'm just curious.

[mccartney007]

I will.

I believe it was made in 1969.

[DLibrasnow]

Yes you are correct McCartney. Its probably the only Roger Moore movie I have never seen so I am anxiously awaiting its arrival on DVD.

[DLibrasnow]

By the way its always nice to see the old United Artists logo on stuff!

[mccartney007]

Yes you are correct McCartney. Its probably the only Roger Moore movie I have never seen so I am anxiously awaiting its arrival on DVD.

I haven't seen it for a LONG time, but it is great, Dlibras. I'm sure most people here would like it. I wonder how long we're going to have to wait for it to come to DVD?
