Eh, none of the dvd's are really worth more than $4 or $5 (in American moneys) at the most, except for some of the two discs and extended editions. With blu-ray coming in and the fact that they're all extremely mainstream movies and therefore not rare at all; Dead Watch is probably the littlest seen movie you own. Box sets... eh, dunno about those, $15-20 a piece?

Blu-rays, who knows. $15 a piece as well?

So, I'd say your collection is worth in the $200-250 range, assuming these are all in gently played condition and have the original packaging intact. But I mean, who knows..

knox 07.17.2010 02:56 PM

you got a shitload of bullshit films.

atsonicpark 07.17.2010 03:01 PM

Yeah, really!

Hahahaha, cause obviously the rest of us only watch abnormal movies to be totally CULTURED and APPRECIATIVE

TheFoxBen 07.17.2010 05:45 PM

Why can't people just enjoy mainstream movies AND avant-garde stuff at the SAME TIME ?

Yeah and most of us do that, but things are rather black or white in Keeping It Simpleton's view.

I do. I make no distinction between underground movies and mainstream movies, in all reality. Some of my favorite films ever are mainstream as fukk, Taxi Driver/Blow Out/Bad Lieutenant/Etc.

I think Mean Girls is just as good as Dog Star Man..

noisereductions 07.17.2010 09:01 PM

Mean Girls is fucking brilliant. And you guys know I'm not just pulling my Lohan shit. Everything about that movie is perfect. Every actor casted is perfect. Down to the characters that aren't even given names !! So fucking good.

They can. Certainly not the case there.
Why is it that all films that are not made for overweight geeky teenagers with acne have to be called avant-garde? Not fair.

noisereductions 07.17.2010 10:04 PM

film is dead.

atsonicpark 07.17.2010 10:06 PM

No, it's not. There's probably more interesting movies coming out nowadays, in the underground, than ever before. Also, the most shit. It's probably just as good as it's ever been, but the 60's-70's were probably the golden age for mainstream Hollywood flicks.

Think about this, would a film like the Holy Mountain or Zardoz be able to get made today? hell no. On the other hand, underground filmmakers with visions GRANDER than those films are making miniatured versions. Check out WE ARE THE STRANGE OR flatland... completely digital, computerized worlds.. insane, no budget, brilliant.

Anyway...

noisereductions 07.17.2010 10:07 PM

yeah I was just being a dick. Sometimes I feel like there's so much bickering on here and (not you in this case adam) people saying "oh sorry I'm not as cool as you" blah blah and I just feel like it's really boring so while "film" is not dead, my wanting to discuss it is. Y'dig?

atsonicpark 07.17.2010 10:18 PM

Oh, I get it. I love you, NR!
You've always been cool to me, even when we disagree.

Even though I kinda figured you were just using, oh, a nonsequiter, or whatever, in this thread, I think it does raise some thoughts that are prevalent in a lot of people's minds.

And it goes back to what I've said before: The best is out there, if you're willing to look for it. But who has the time? I dunno. I just have a natural inclination to search for the esoteric, but I can understand a lot of people not having that kind of drive. But, trust me, these are exciting times we're living in... maybe too exciting. Maybe too much information. Sensory overload. Information overdose. EXPLODING HEAD.
