Most of mine are in storage but Godzilla, House, and the Beastie Boys Video Anthology are up there

Incoming shit tastesI don't buy that many movies...
>>62785018
>VHS on top
why? it's not like you're gonna watch those. You'll end up knocking them all down anytime you pull out something you actually want to watch.
only posting my small horror collection in the shittiest photo imaginable because who gives a shit
Missing: Alien series, NotLD, Suspiria
I don't have a current picture of my movie shelves. This just came today. It was only $40 brand new from B&N's ebay account.
>>62785503
you own two good movies
hint one isinherent viceand the other isa scanner darkly
>>62785798
>not Collateral
Come again?
>>62785798
Blazing Saddles is better than both of those.
>>62785826
Not Collateral.
>have literally hundreds of VHS tapes
>mostly because they're cheap and I'm yuropoorean
>get called hipster even though I just enjoy movies no matter what the format is
Don't have any pics yet, but as soon as I get my shelves set up and my collection put in order I will take pictures.
>>62785842
You're actually right, I couldn't make out that title. So he has three good movies.
None of the which is Collateral.
>>62785891
That's pretty cool. I just started collecting VHS cause they're cheaper than any other format (and the ones that are still expensive are worth it), and a lot of titles never made it past VHS.
>>62785798

>buying physical media
>not having all your films neatly organized in folders and easily accessible on your hdd
It's like you never heard of convenience
>>62785891
Your VHS collection is being demagnetized every second it exists. Further demagnetization occurs every time it is played.
>>62785966
I have impeccable taste
get out nerd
Mine so far. I'm running out of shelf space already.
>>62785995
With the exception of 4 movies (Inherent Vice, Chinatown, Martin Scorcese 3 movie pack, and Skyfall) I haven't bought a movie in like 3-4 years.
I bought my first DVD in 2001 probably when you were like 4.
>>62786090
>slip covers on all the Disney blu-rays
HOW
>>62786050
I know. Some of my movies look like ass nowadays. I should probably rip them all to my hdd, or at least the rare ones.
>>62785995
>not having all your films neatly organized on shelves and easily accessible
It's literally the same thing. If you aren't autistic and you have a job that nets you money, and you go out and talk to people every once in a while, you realize that owning DVDs or Blu-rays is a common thing that people like to talk about. Are you implying that "having sex" with virtual women is the same as having sex with a real woman?
>>62785503
>Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
>Shoot 'Em Up
>John Wick

>Blazing Saddles
I like your taste anon

>>62786090
Pretty nice.
>>62786125
what's this one?
>>62785991
Stop stacking your cases like that you cockmongling britfag.

>>62786238
Berserk.
Yeah I had an anime phase in highschool. I still like Trigun and Cowboy Bebop.
>>62786125
I give my boys the same food
>>62785995
Ur weird
>>62786190
on a computer watching a movie takes three clicks.
If you have a shelf with all the dvds, you have to go to the shelf, find the movie you want to watch, open the case, put the dvd in your computer/dvd-player and wait being told not to download cars and only then you can actually start watching the thing.
Computer files also don't take physical space so you don't have to make physical room for the dvd's. All media is in your hard drive and if you have an external hard drive, you can take your whole collection and watch any movie from your collection somewhere else.
>>62786975
>lazy poorfag detected
Holy shit. You're one of those people that will say you don't make your bed because in the course of a year you'll have wasted an hour of your precious time...When in reality you don't do shit with your life and have all the time in the world.
>>62787086
>make a bed
>an hour
How the fuck do you make your bed?
>>62787086
Now you're rationalizing your dumb way of doing things. Why spend time and energy doing useless things when you can streamline the fuck out of the process and have more time to do shit you actually like to do?
>>62787122
>in the course of a year you'll have wasted an hour
What is reading comprehension?
>>62787249
No, I'm trying to rationalize your asinine and lazy ways. If you can't be bothered to grab a DVD off a shelf and watch it. You're probably a lazy fuck who rationalizes not doing simple tasks...
>>62785944
>Empire on VHS
Ohhhh, Im jealous. I have South Park BLU on VHS around here somewhere.
>>62787305
>>62786090
Very cool, I really want that Black Cats box. I don't understand the organization at all. Why do you have Criterions on the top and bottom?
>>62787293
Not him, but why would I perform any task unless I absolutely have to?
>>62787293
No, you're wasting time and energy on shit that really could take much less time and energy but instead you stick to your old habits and think there's some value in that. What you're doing right now is a textbook example of rationalization. I might be a lazy fucker but at least I'm not a retard making excuses for doing things in an idiotic way.
>>62786169
I still have slipcovers on all of my movies. Its not that hard to take care of your shit.
>tfw Disney Movie Club sent me the 5 disc Tron Legacy set in a case with warped plastic
At least the discs are okay, and its not really that noticeable.
>>62787440
Oh man, maximum jealous.
I might have the VHS Indiana Jones movies somewhere.
>>62786090
Hey, I think I remember you from a while back. Unless I'm mistaken, you've bought a lot of stuff recently.
>>62787487
>shitting on values
Spoken like a true millennial.
>>62787499
Who cares about slip covers? Unless they have different art that what's underneath they are pointless. Pic related I would keep.
>>62787499
I try to keep slipcovers on all my movies, and I'm such a perfectionist that I'll drop an extra couple of bucks for one with the cover, but I can not for the life of me find Disney ones with slip covers. Harder than Shout Factory desu
>>62787570
>being an idiot
just take a look at this fukin goofball
>>62787575
I throw all my slipcovers away unless there is something special about them.
>>62786090
>disney separate
>criterion separate
>box sets separate
Please god why are you organizing by shape instead of alphabetically?
>>62787571
I see your point, but its nice to have the full package, you know?
Plus 90% of the ones I have are lenticular pictures, i.e. JP3, Tron Legacy, Hellboy 2, etc.
>>62787575
I hate to sound like a shill, but Disney Movie Club is the way to go. They even have collectors editions that have been long pulled from the market for fucking dirt ass cheap.
Just the other day i saw the Collectors edition for PotC3 in the Treasure chest box for $30.
>>62787653
this is triggering my autism
>>62785891
DVDs are going for pennies, though.
>>62787687
I'll definitely check it out, I have a bunch of the Disney rewards points saved up anyway.
>>62786090
>all those still in plastic
Anon pls
>>62786190
You are a tarantino "I rip all my movies onto VHS tapes because physical media" tier autist. The media you are watching something does not change your viewing experience unless you slowly fondle the case of the movie while watching it.
>>62787515
Yep! I only just started buying physical discs about half a year ago. I've posted my collection several times since then. Thanks for noticing :3
>>62787467
I need to organize them, I know.
>>62787687
>I see your point, but its nice to have the full package, you know?
They are extraneous unless they are different from the regular art in some way. Literally no point.
>>62787690
That was my intention.
>>62785995
The good thing about Blu-ray, even DVDs, is the high bitrate. Best picture quality all around.
>>62787713
First 4 movies are a fuckin' dollar, mang. Not a dollar each, just one lil Green Washington.
I just got Inside Out last week and it came with a nifty lithograph.
>>62787575
Skip covers are generally only put on movies for their first pressing. If you're trying to buy them new and you don't see a slip it's a second pressing. For some movies it's a ridiculously small batch. Like the diamond edition of 101 Dalmatians
>>62787732
Damn, that's a nice box.
>>62787677
It's gotten to the point where I need to do this, I know. Just a few months ago I only had 50 or 60 movies. When you get past 100 movie it starts to become time to organize I agree. But as it stands I don't see what's wrong with having digipacks separate from standard releases. Having Disney separate from everything else makes sense too.
Just picked up The Force Awakens on VHS at a garage sale. $4.00
>>62787828
Disney does make sense. But overall alphabetically is just downright the way it should be. That way all of your television and film is filed in one place under a certain letter.
>>62787906
>Powerpuff girls complete series
MY FUCKING NIGGA. Ed edd n eddy complete set when?
>>62787906
Yeah but since I don't have any TV yet (I just got better call Saul and plan to get some other tv box sets soon, tho) It's fairly easy to organize my shelf. And uh... I gotta say you should throw out all those arrow Blus. God what an awful show lol. That power puff girls box set is effing sweet tho.
>>62787897
Fucking awesome reddit repost bro
>>62787985
Arrow is definitely a guilty pleasure. I love The Flash and I'm autistic about watching everything in a shared universe. That's also why I have Arrow Arrow Flash Arrow organized that way.
Also, >>62787960
I'm just sitting here waiting for the Courage box set. They have like 2 seasons on dvd. No reason why they can't just put all 4 together.
>>62788046
I figured there was some kind of rights thing with Dilworth or something.
>>62787989
>admitting you've been to reddit, on 4chan
>>62788046
Cartoon Network is notorious for shit DVD releases.
>>62787781
I know. I can't stop cradling it in my arms and singing to it.
>>62788147
Fuck yeah they are. The aforementioned ppg got shitty distribution. I didnt even see it at fucking walmart.
>>62785503
6/10 for fury road, blazing saddles and fotr

>shelf thread

anon.....
>>62788395
These are all the blu rays I own so it IS my shelf. Which one don't you like? I'm guessing the social network
>>62785944
Yo I respect you nigga.
I'm running out of room, I have tons of others scattered around the house. TV shows on separate shelf.
>>62788618
Just think how long it will take to sell them and replace them all with blu-rays.
>All this disposable income
>>62788566
I mean, it's really not much of a shelf, is it?
Granted, mine isn't much either (I'm the guy you gave 6/10 to) but it's still something. Two movies does not a shelf make.
>>62788566
>social network
what the fuck are you even saying i don't see social network in that pic.
>>62788663
I only upgrade the ones I really love. Lots are blu-ray already.
>>62788618
Get rid of Harry Potter and the redundant DVDs. That should free up space.
>>62788670
jelly? u should see my TV.
>>62788793
But I like Harry Potter.
>>62788814
U dun it Mao hairy porter
>all that science fiction shit posted ITT
this board is full of manchildren
>>62788841
I work at a movie store and the most dedicated movie collectors are Sci-Fi/Horror fans. We got guys that come in every Tuesday to pick up the newest Scream Factory and Arrow releases.
>>62788841
Literally what the fuck. Do you just watch documentaries or what?
>>62788939
are you suggesting everything is science fiction just because it's fiction supported by science? I was just talking about superheros and fantasy shit like the lord of the rigns or harry potter
>>62788841
you mean normies. normies are millineals and they love sci-fi movies.
>>62789107
I don't know a single fan of star wars irl and most people here love it
>>62789031
I really don't know how to feel about this.
>>62789141
I guess you don't know many people because it's literally one the most popular movie franchises ever.
>>62789031
is there a theme i'm missing? i really don't know what's going on here.
>>62789197
I'm not a white American
>>62789225
I'm not American either and I still know a lot of people that like Star Wars.
>>62789263
>like
Notice I said "fan"
>>62789308
I know a few fans too.
>>62785018
Why the fuck do you guys bother collecting DVD's/Blu-ray? Seriously, it's now $20 a pop, takes up a bunch of space, and is a major annoyance, especially if you're only interested in 1 or 2 scenes from a movie. And i'm honestly not autistic enough to give a shit about watching anything more than a 2-3Gb 1080p copy. When I get a 4k display, maybe then I'll start downloading the higher resolution copies. But from where I see it, there's absolutely zero positives to owning the physical media.unless you just enjoy being a Good Goy
>>62789526
>especially if you're only interested in 1 or 2 scenes from a movie.
The fuck
>>62789526
nice fucking bait
>>62789526
$20 a bluray is flatout wrong
also special features
audio commentaries are occasionally better than the movies themselves
>>62789576
as in you're rewatching a couple of favorite scenes from a movie you've seen several times, not saying watching a movie you've never seen before for just 1 scene, that would be...odd.
>>62789613
Not bait, honest opinion. I've seen movie quality in Blu-ray vs your garden variety 1080p torrent. Sure the Blu-ray is better. But I once had to tolerate watching movies with shitty VHS snow interfering with enjoying it. I admit it, after a certain point, I don't give a shit. Same garbage as the FLAC vs MP3 formats. At a certain point after 192kbps on MP3, I no longer care about the faithful recording of brown noise in the 30hz range. I'm perfectly content enjoying both at a level where the technology no longer significantly hampers playback.
>>62789640
Older releases and used market, sure, you can find it cheaper, but new releases are 20+
>>62789526
Blu-ray=1080p video with 25mbps and high resolution surround audio
Downloaded BD-rip=compressed 720p mkv file with 3mbps bitrate and lossy 2-channel AAC audio
Don't get me wrong. I like the instant gratification from a 2-3gb mkv download, but there's nothing wrong in owning your favorites in glorious Blu-ray quality.
>>62790026
You can rent the disc and wait for a discount after some months.
>>62790309
I mean I guess I get what you're saying, maybe it's the difference between an audiophile and a guy that listens to music while working/driving/exercising. They both appreciate music but the audiophile wants to "isolate" the experience where the others only requirements is that the audio is reasonably clear, free from distortion or censoring, and doesn't have god damn ads in it! (actually that's my requirement for music and TV)
>>62790026
If you only use your PC monitor and use crappy 200w speakers or headphones then I agree, 720p yifyshit is for you.
If you're like me and have a 55inch tv and 1400w surround sound system and also have steady income to buy new releases ever week, then blu rays make sense. Get a better room with more space if you don't have the space for physical movies. And seriously consider for a moment how much better your favourite movies would look on a big ass tv in glorious surround sound.
>>62790026
>new releases are 20+
I only pay $20 for Criterion. Nothing else. You are exaggerating.
>>62790500
I have an HTPC with 8Tb of hard drive space hooked up to a 52" display. Sony receiver with a pair of floor standing speakers by Samsung, forgot the models on both. I don't know man, all I can say I've seen them on this screen. Ended up deciding I'd rather watch a movie 15 minutes after I had decided I wanted to see it than go out to WorstBuy and pay them for the privilege of having less space in my home.
And seriously man, DVD/Bluray cases are 2nd only to paperback books in most annoying shit to movie between houses.
