      Bruh I have boxes full of them! It’ll take forever to make them! Fuck! I got a few more coming! (It’s Ryan gosling movies too!)

      Can’t believe it’s been that long but at the top of my head I do own the first Fast and Furious movie on blu ray and ofc many ps3, ps4, and ps5 games which are blu ray discs. 

    3. 183, counted them myself!
      I’ve been getting back to consuming films as physical media these past 5 years and yeah I love it.
      I don’t have any subscriptions anymore, I just go to the store and find out what’s interesting, and buy it there.
      Sure it can get expensive, but I also feel like I care more about the movie I’m watching this way, instead of being one click away from switching to another one. Honestly the movie industry would be so much better if streaming didn’t exist and everyone bought their movies

    4. I’ve got about ~1450 or so, went through a period of just buying for buying’s sake but I now pick up maybe a dozen or so per year, just my favourites or films that I’m really interested in

      Showed my partner and some of our friends Weapons the other day and it was *beautiful*

      I started buying some recently, indicator and radiance are my favourite labels

      I have 526 discs in my collection. Portions are DVD and 4K but I’d estimate 200-300 are Blu-ray

      I grew up with DVDs, my cousins were the ones who owned the blue ray player. I only have one blue ray: Monty Python and the Holy Grail (which it’s sense since it’s my second favorite movie ever)

      “Now, if you recall that whole hullabaloo where Hollywood was split into schisms, some studios backing Blu-ray disc, others backing HD DVD. People thought it would come down to pixel rate or refresh rate, and they’re pretty much the same. What it came down to was a combination between gamers and porn. Now, whichever format porno backs is usually the one that becomes the uh most successful. But, you know, Sony, every PlayStation 3 has a Blu-ray in it.”

      I have 6 Blu-Rays bought from Queen Video’s closing sale in Toronto. Also have 3 Criterion boxed sets: Jacques Demy, Agnes Varda, and Wong-Kar Wai.

      I love, *love* Blu-rays and have a few dozens but my Blu-ray player died and I can’t find anyone who knows how to fix it or a new one at a reasonable price ): If anyone has any tips, please let me know. I’m in South America, if that matters (and I think it does, because I remember it was much easier to find one when I lived in Western Europe).

      About 100 movies and 20 tv shows. Most of my collection is dvds. I typically just buy what I can get cheapest. I get a lot of secondhand.

      I have three, because my mom got them with her player. Simpsons the Movie, Eagle Eye and… Xmen Origins Wolverine.

    13. None. By the time they came out, I’d already been an experienced and entrenched sailor of the seven seas, yarrr.

      A lot,  such as The complete Gamera film collection to the classic Universal horror films to  Cowboy Bebop.

    15. My only Blu Ray is the Lion King 1994, because it came with the DVD. I never owned a Blu Ray player, only a DVD/VHS combo. Until recently, I still had my old standard definition TV so there was no need.

      I got sold of all my physical media (dvds and blu rays) at the pressure of my ex-husband because he didn’t like the space they took up. Mind you, we had plenty of space and for some reason his video games and video game merch were fine? That was in 2017 and to this day it hurts my heart. I miss my dvds. Can’t find so many of those movies streaming

    17. a fair amount, but my favorite is kimi no na wa (your name) which is about to celebrate 10 years 💙
