With downloading taking effect, personal DVD,VHS etc. collections must be at their largest now, but which items in your collection do you really treasure? With The Wraith you are always winning, lol.:cool:

I have the original Star Wars trilogy on VHS. Their first home release, I believe. Before Lucas started messing with them.

I have more vhs's than I have books, And my book collection rivals the average library.

Everytime I go to half price I pick up 5 vhs tapes and a few 99 cent books.

Even without Megan Gale, the original Transformers movie was the best.

The '90s were a strange decade in some ways.

You are going to have to start proving all of these bullshit claims you make.

Well I do know I still own Enter the Dragon on VHS, but it doesn't work anymore. I'd tried using it back when I had my VHS player a couple of years ago. I was very disappointed because I love that movie. We have at least twenty VHS tapes still stored, but pretty sure most of them don't work anymore especially the 3 tape box set of Sound of Music. Glad that one doesn't work.

Bunny, yes I was exaggerating, but I do have enough books to completely fill a 10/12 room up to about 4 feet high with no walking room. I think I have even more VHS tapes, certainly enough to fill my attic.

My Favorite VHS is a Batman movie someone recorded (the penguin one) where the tape is all messed up and all the sound plays at a much higher pitch for the second half of the movie.

I still have a good handful of VHS tapes around, but unfortunately no VHS player to play them. Which is pretty much a shame. :p

Yeah, they had some standards back in the 1970s!

Never understood why Burt left Sally Field to take up with Lonnie Anderson, bad move!

My most prized DVD is probably the special edition of The Royal Tenenbaums. I also have the special editions of Labyrinth, Big Fish and The Last Unicorn, and I'd be sad if they were gone.

I don't think I have any VHS tapes anymore. The one I always liked the best out of my family's collection was our super old black and white version of King Kong, where you could press on his chest and he'd let out this crazy awesome gorilla call. I'm pretty sure it's been torn to shreds over the years or lost in moving, though :(

Also, after I moved out, I used to carry a VHS copy of Alice in Wonderland with me everywhere I moved, but I got rid of it when I realized I'd probably never go back to VHS.

I wouldn't mind a picture, but only because I love looking at people's bookshelves.

I don't have any videos, because I hate clutter. I do have fond memories of lingering in the video shop with friends, trying to choose just two or three tapes to take home.

I sold 'em all.

I have blu rays of Firefly and Serenity and nothing else.
