Me? Well, I was so happy to find the “Carry On” collection at Best Buy! I haven’t seen those films since I was a kid in Oz. That Kenneth Williams is a _stitch!_ 😃 Oh, yeah…I also bought “Good Times - The Complete First Season.” DYN-O-MITE!! ---

I finally bought **Brazil** and I must say it is great. I am also waiting for **The Godfather, Mesa of Lost Women, Glen Or Glenda, Night of the Ghouls** from Amazon. ---

I got Brazil and Star Trek Nemesis for Father’s Day. My son has watched Nemesis with me twice but I havn’t found time to watch Brazil yet since noone will watch it with me. ---

Aren’t there something like 15 Carry On films? Wow. I ordered The Matrix yesterday. ---

**This is Spinal Tap**. I hardly ever buy DVDs. I only own about 6 (7 if you count my double copy of **True Stories** ). ---

**Throne of Blood** should be arriving soon from [Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com). Before that, it was **Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 4**. I’d thought I wasn’t going to buy that one, since I didn’t like the season as a whole, but then I remembered it had three of my favorite episodes of the whole series: “Superstar,” “Hush,” and “Restless.” (And before _that_, it was **Adaptation**.) ---

Wow. > \*\* Well, I’m not sure how many there are in their entirety, but the collection I bought included 12 movies, not including the bonus disc “That’s Carry On,” which is more or less a best of. I don’t believe that is the complete series, though. I want MORE! Hilarious! ---

**Brotherhood of the Wolf**. I love that absurd, insane movie more each time I watch it. ---

On DVD, the Six Feet Under First Season. Last week I bought Men in Black II, American Pie II, Goldmember, and Kissing Jessica Stein on VHS. Hollywood was having a 4 for $20 sale on previously viewed movies. It was all about the sequels. ---

The last one I bought myself was The Rocketeer, but my brother got me The Shield Season One box set for my birthday in March. It’s been a while! I have so many DVDs on my want list, too! ---

**Miller’s Crossing** and **Barton Fink** , both materpieces, and the criterion edition of **Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas** ( not my favorite Gilliam, but it has its moments and although I haven’t listened to this one yet, his commentaries are always excellent ). - Tamerlane ---

Oh and **Zardoz** for $8. Sean Connery with a ponytail, a diaper, and a gun - How can you go wrong :D? - Tamerlane ---

I bought Training Day for $6 on eBay a few days back. Give me about an hour or so and that will be out of date as I’m going to wander over to eBay after reading the messages hear. ---

MILLER’S CROSSING. What an excellent movie. Also, does anyone know a place to order used dvd’s? Not from individual users like ebay (the shipping on all the separate items can become absurd), but a centralized outlet where I can buy a bunch in one order and one shipping charge. ---

Picked up a bunch of low-priced new-n-used DVDs from Amazon recently – **Rush Hour, Rush Hour II, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon,** and **South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut.** I suppose Cartman’s use of “V-Chip Fu” would make them qualify as sharing a martial arts theme… ---

For me it was a couple of my all-time favorite movies: _Miracle Mile_ ($10 at Best Buy) and _Sneakers_ ($10 at Fred Meyer). Best $20 I’ve spent in a while… [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-was-the-last-dvd-you-bought/183357.md?page=2)
