Basically a poll for the “relatively selective”
Personally, I have:
Gangs of New York
Aviator
Pulp Fiction
Kill Bill I & II (counting as 1).
Sin City
Swingers
Made
Elf
The Big Lebowski
Almost Famous
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
(man, that’s 11. But Swingers and Made came together.)
Hmmm.
I think that’s it. Just not my thing to buy DVDs. I do have about 800 gigs of computer video though, so that might be part of the reason: I’d rather download it, and I don’t want to buy DVDs when I have so much video already.
FotR
TTT
RotK
Gargoyles, Season 1
Gargoyles, Season 2 part 1 (did they ever make Part 2?)
Beavis and Butthead, Mike Judge collection Vol1
Beavis and Butthead, Mike Judge collection Vol2 (they DID make Vol3, but it was a collection of outtakes and videos, none of which I wanted to see, although I would buy it if it had “funk dat” on it.)
Pirates of the Caribbean (I)
Interview With the Vampire
Rocky Horror Picture Show
All were gifts from friends. I never actually buy DVDs for myself.
The Kill Bill Movies
Firefly
Serenity
South Park BLU
The Big Lebowski
Mystery Men
Simpsons, seasons 1, 2 and 3
We only have two movie DVDs that I can think of - Cars (which DH bought because he saw it on sale at Wal-Mart) and Midsummer Night’s Dream, which he uses when teaching the play in class.
The others are all concerts - The Eagles, Eric Clapton, the Moody Blues, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin.
The only DVD I’ve ever bought for myself is The Big Lebowski.
I also have:
Chapelle’s Show season 1
I Am Trying To Break Your Heart: A Film About Wilco
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Mystery Science Theater 3000
The Office [BBC] seasons 1 and 2
Reservoir Dogs
This Is Spinal Tap
All were gifts from family members. The only one of those I watch with any frequency is Spinal Tap.
I’m not sure why I have the DVDs that I do, but here’s the list:
-Harry Potter 3
-Cruel Intentions
-Aladdin
-Dirty Dancing
-Practical Magic
Thinking more about it, they were all gifts. I don’t watch many movies, so when I do I just rent them or borrow them from friends. My BIL has several hundred DVDs, so he’s a great source if I’m feeling like watching a movie.

Captain Scarlet
Battlestar Gallactica (the original)
I recently broke up with my boyfriend of 8 years. Most of the DVD’s we owned were either bought by him or by me for him as gifts, or bought by me because we both wanted them. When I left, I didn’t see the point in making a very friendly breakup contentious by trying to divide the spoils. The first two on my list were bought by me for me and hated by him. The next three were bought after I moved in with my sister. Captain Scarlet is actually my ex’s - he’s letting me borrow it. Battlestar was a birthday gift from him to me. I’d love to have more movies but I just don’t have the money.
However my sister has hundreds so I can watch those if I want. Unfortunatly, she doesn’t have any of the old movies I want to see.
Harry Potter 3 and 4
Mesmer
Miracle of the White Stallions
Goodfellas
Some Like It Hot
A Christmas Story
I also have 3 or 4 exercise DVDs.
I’m keeping to video DVDs (I have almost as many software DVDs).
