What does your movie collection say about you?

[ImpofthePerverse]

Well lets just start by ignoring my animé collection which is over 980 items (by items I mean a seven volume series is counted as seven items but a seven disc boxset is counted as one).

I've a growing collection of Blu-rays, and am slowly trying to replace some DVDs with Blu-ray versions where possible.

I've a wide range of Disney and Pixar films and other animation, Asian films including martial-arts and horror, some great comedy like the Naked Gun series or Fawlty Towers, lots of Doctor Who and other sci-fi and fantasy stuff, super-hero films like all the Batman movies (inc. the 1966 film).

I've also just got back from seeing Rango in the cinema but before I went to the cinema I bought the following films on Blu-ray...perhaps they'll give a clue to my tastes.

Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
The Dam Busters
The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Psychoville (not a movie but a UK TV show)
The Girl with the Dragon Tatto

 

[Combined]

I have too much to list, however...

It says I don't like blue-ray, cling to VHS too much, have too much money on my hands and like war, drama and films that are considered classics a whole lot.

 

[AbstractStream]

My movie collection tells me that even though I may be an action freak, I still keep in touch with my inner child. (Rambo, Commando, Casino Royale, Die Hard, etc. as well as tons of Disney movies.)

It says I would of been a well known, sea faring Bandit if I was born a couple of centuries ago.

However if I owned the movies I like then I think it would say that I have awesome taste in movies.

 

[The Night Shade]

Let's see:All Bond films (big fan) lots of old Black and White movies,Lots of action movies (my favorites DIE HARD) and The Classics (Scarface,Pulp Fiction,Dollars trilogy,etc)

I'm awesome right

 

[Macabre9037]

I think mine just says that I love movies. I have a ton of them in all kinds of genres and from all different time periods; and I do really love movies.

 

[frans909]

I have stuff like Bad Taste, Army of Darkness, Postal, District 9, Snatch, Lock Stock, Comic Book Villains, Boondock Saints, Perfume, Balls of Fury, Ricochet, The Car, Convoy.

What does that say about me? Hmmm....

 

[Grunge4Ever]

Monty Pthon and the Holy Grail, The Life of Brian, Wayne's World, Clerks 1-2 , First Blood, Halloween(1978), The Matrix, Fight Club, The Departed, Goodfellas, Predator, Citizen Kane, Rocky, Heat, Blade Runner, Back to the Future trilogy, The Fighter, Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill 1-2, Spider Man 1&2, Pulp Fiction, The Lord of The Rings Trilogy, Schindler's List, Saving Pravite Ryan, Rear Window and Jurassic Park. I'm kind of a film snob.

 

[spartandude]

I like science fiction

 

[Nietz]

Hmm, I'd have to say... substance abuser. Technically ex-substance abuser. My modest film collection is pretty much all drug-related dramas or comedies.

My fiancées film collection on the other hand says: Sleepless film nerd. She has almost got more films than I have got games, and that says a lot, seeing as my game collection is starting to take over it's second bookshelf.

What does this say about me?
I like thrillers, horrors, scary stuff from pre 90's. Some moderate fantasy themes but mostly just redicioulus things.

 

[D Moness]

Look at all of the movies you own AND enjoy actually owning. These movies are your collection.

Why buy a movie you do not wanna own ?

As for me that would be an absurd long list.
It ranges from east to west movies.
Oldest is made in 1951 till now.
Genres range from horror to musicals.

What does that say about me .. I have a wide range in taste

 

[Palademon]

Uh...Dreamworks, Nicolas Cage, and Gundam Wing are the first things that come to mind.

I don't know, what does it say about me?
