In 2009 I watched 'Couple's Retreat' and I have found out I can buy it on disk from 8th February 2010. I can't wait to buy a copy of it. It is one of the best movies that has come out lately.
Do you watch a movie and then buy it on disk?
Have you got many disks of movies in your home?

Because I never go to the cinema to watch movies I have accumulated a large collection of DVDs which I enjoy adding to, probably because I am a complete film geek. But what I have found is that although I don’t go to the cinema I may catch a movie shown on TV often by accident, either a premier or an older one and then end up buying it on DVD following that accidental viewing.

Hi max, I have hundreds of movies on disc. I went through a stage, and still are, where I wanted a library of musicals, fifties westerns, nd lod black and whits movies. In retirement those films give me much more pleasure than most modern ones. Cheers, mike.

I don't own many DVDs now but I've been thinking lately that there are several movies that I watch every time they come on TV so I might as well buy them if I can find them at a reasonable price. I do have a few TV series sets that I'd gotten to get "caught up" on shows I hadn't watched from the beginning.

Too many 'things' in my house, so I rarely buy movies for myself any more. Usually the children get one or two movies each every year. I have so many videos that I need to go through (to see if they've deteriorated and aren't watchable any more), but I just don't have the time or the energy.

I am a DVD horder!! I always buy the films when they get released if I enjoyed it although generally I don't buy when they first come out as I wait until they get reduced down a bit so then I can afford to buy more in one go!

Hi
I prefer watching movies in the cinema especially if the movie has sound effects that are only projected well in cinema studios. But I guess watching movies in the privacy of your own home is equally enjoyable as long as you have a very good sound system. I do not have many disks because normally I would download movies from the internet. However, for movies that I really like, I would purchase the disks so that I can watch the movie relaxingly for a few times and I can also add them to my favourite disks collection.

We "had" many disks but my kids don't do well with them. They get scratched and messed up. To be honest we have only bought 1 in the last like 6 months. We mostly watch movies online. We have seen almost everything you can think of. We also watch our cable tv online too since we don't have it.
