We all have our favourite films but which one have you owned the most over the years?
I’m not such a big fan now but growing up it was the original Star Wars trilogy.
I had (deep breath):
The first wide-screen VHS release.
The Imperial Star Destroyer Executor VHS metal box set. (The trilogy in wide-screen with lots of extras on more tapes).
The official Maylaisan VideoCD trilogy set.
The UK laserdisc of the special edition trilogy.
The first release on DVD and the Blu-ray Saga set.
I also used to have various bootleg sets of the original trilogy sourced from LaserDiscs and a German copy of the special editions in HD before Blu-rays were released.
Phew!
That’s the most varied. All my other films have followed the standard route of VHS, DVD, Blu-ray and 4K.
Anyone else?
EDIT: Forgot about my Laserdisc set!
I have 26 VHS copies of The Lion King 2
I saw an Instagram reel of someone who just keeps on buying copies of Titanic on VHS! No idea how many they have.
I’ve had the Indiana Jones trilogy on VHS, DVD, BluRay, and UHD.
I used to have 38 copies of nukie
Predator: VHS, laserdisc, DVD, DVD Remastered, Blu-ray, 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray Remastered, Google Play, 4K Blu-ray, 4K Blu-ray (Predator movie collection).
I buy every unique printing of the real Spy Kids films (1-3) that I run into at thrift stores for my collection. I’d have to find them in my house though.
