I just ordered another 20 movies last night... I justified it by reasoning that the price at Best Buy for these sets was $15 each, and they were only $11 ea on the web... But then i had to buy a few more movies to get the free shipping from the website... now they are sending me coupons... [img]eek.gif[/img]
So yesterday i bought 42 crap movies total... Maybe i should be seeing someone about this...
yes i think u may have a problem there your buying to little movies..go buy some more [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Jor, let me tell you a little story...come sit on daddy's lap...
You see...a few years ago, when I first started collecting, a little figure called a "Beast Wars Transformer" caught my eye...and though I didn't collect them, I kept thinking about that figure...It was a dragon, you see, and looked very nice as a dragon, so the point really wasn't the fact that it was a TF. Anyway, eventually I noticed that that dragon was a pretty popular fella, and I was seeing less and less of him in stores. So I made up my mind to buy that dragon, and I did. Took him home, diplayed him proudly.
But then I noticed the wildcat.
And then, the locust.
And the robo-skeletal dinosaur.
Well, Jor, to make a long story short...I spent the entire day Sunday shifting around my truly massive TF collection into a more streamlined, central display of a mere 2 full-sized bookshelves, the top of the desk hutch and a couple of wall-mounted shelves...that's not counting the ones I boxed up and exiled to the closet. All this because I liked one dragon. *sigh*
...the moral? Oh...well, I dunno, DVDs take up less space, so quityerbitchin', junkie. [img]wink.gif[/img]

At least you are only buying the cheap DVDs - I have that problem with the Season Box sets. We have 7 or 8 of them that have been purchased, but not even opened yet.
You are looking at what, $500-600 in boxed set dvds that we haven't watched yet?
Ouch! My wallet just hurt

I dunno... it would have to be pretty bad to beat out the unholy Italian Star Wars Rip-off trilogy... War of the Planets, War of the Robots, and Star Odyssey... I'm still trying to find movies worse than those...
Yes, thinking is your 1st problem...

True, ture, but then the only thing I collect that is to stay MOC is one figure from McFarlane.
I ended up with a 2002 SDCC Pewter Spawn that was signed by Todd. Got it in a trade with Nitro Junkie. He didn't want it any longer, and sent it to me for an Electra from ML4.
*shrugs* - nice figure, but haven't decided if I am going to keep it yet or not.
Buy GIGLI, you'll never buy another bad movie after that
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">that is tempting... [img]biggrin.gif[/img]Quote:
