With everyone I know switching to DVD these days, has anyone else kept some of the old formats?
I have several 8 and super 8mm films and a projector.
I have 40 select a vision movies and player.
I have 130 laser discs and player.
I have 183 VHS videos and several players
And las t but not least I do have 97 DVD's.
I have very few repeats.
With the exception of Star Wars, I have both the regular and special edition on VHS and I also have the Definitive Collection on laser disc. I will eventually get the DVD set. I loan the VHS movies out on the Star Wars.
Recently I bought The Red SHoes on select a vision. Being a Kate Bush fan and having her version of The Red Shoes, I thought it would be nice to see the movie. Both discs cost me only $4.00, which is good.
My movie collection covers many angles horror, sci fi, drama, action, comedy, about 40 Disney movies.
It pretty much mirrors my music collection. I do the same thing I do with my movies that I do with music. I always buy something I never heard of with something that I want. I have only been disappointed a few times.
I will continue to buy the other formats. I will replace the older VHS with either DVD or laser disc.
It would be great knowing what everyone else has.John....
