The 'No More Buying DVDs Until I Have Watched the Ones I Already Own' Thread

Penguins86

I've finished Criminal Minds Season 8 not sure what I'll do now until 9 comes out! I've got several other things to watch so I'll make progress by watching a few films. Not just now though. Lots to do today!

I went onto some old stuff

first to go as far as I can throw it - how on earth did that get into my dvds?
Jethro "Off the Wall"live on tour. What an obnoxious person and how did anyone find that rubbish funny??? Comedy has really come on since then... ....
Have started on Black Beauty, I hope I'm not going to cry this time

I just watch Marley & Me (on TV).

It was good but *sob* *sniffle* *SOB*.

Black Beauty now gone into CS bag. I meant to start with disc 2 on The Wire but it's gone too late ( I was watching a clip on decluttering - see Hoarding thread ), so a few lines in my book and I'll be out ....

I have just counted my DVDs and videos

113 DVDs but these include box sets. One box set has 20 films in it.
plus 14 DVDs which came free with newspapers.

50 pre-recorded videos
51 which I have recorded

Will update tomorrow with the number of unwatched DVDs/Videos.

I have contemplated replacing the videos with DVDs if I find them in charity shops for a low price - especially the ones that I recorded as the quality of them is not that good. Not very MSE though.

I watched dBee Movie and Bride Wars last week. Not unwatched DVDs but they were ones I wanted to watch one last time before getting rid of. I'm in the process of sorting out to move. Not that we've got a house yet as the one we liked has sold in the last few days :-( so having a big clear out if everything at the moment!

Yesterday I watched Flushed Away from my 'to watch one more time' pile. Mr Popper's Penguins is the top of the pile today so might watch that after lunch (when I've washed up)

you are doing well, penguins86. I find it hard as we have lovefilm discs and streaming. In bed I usually read...hope to get through the stash of films more i n the wintertime...

Washing up happened later than planned yesterday as I got hooked on the commonwealth games coverage. Sat and watched The Lego Movie last night though which means I can cross one of my unwatched DVDs off the list.

If you have a video player that works, perhaps watch the videos first and only replace the ones that you really love and definitely *know* that you will watch again to reduce the clutter level?

Hmm...well, I have just watched two DVDs, but only one of them counts as the other has been watched many times. Step (or swim) forward A Fish Called Wanda. I can't believe it has taken me so long. You were funny, but I don't think I will be watching you again.
