dvd 's WHY buy

[tartanhaggis7]

i recently helped a neighbour clear out a family house ( died ) there was alot of paintings and she was a v/ good piano player and there was alot of music!!! the thing that got me was OVER 200 dvd's of films which we took to the local charity shop !!! WHY buy films surely once uve scene it u KNOW the story i buy a film from charity shop watch it and either let sumone watch but ULTIMATRLY give it bak to shop currently i own 4 dvd's Edinburgh tatoo jaws les miserabelles and david Attenborough's lifestory THATS it i may add i love watching films of ALL genres also libary's i believe rent out films CHARITY shops are great treasure troves and you can find some brill stuff🤗!!!

Yes, we have a few from before they were 'digitally remastered' and re-released.

Oh it’s YOU again with your intermittent SHOUTING.

Today the thunderstorm blew our router out. No Internet, no tv as its through the Internet. Got our old tv out and put dvds on.
Also watch dvds in our caravan.

I am moving back to dvds after finding out that streaming services where you buy or rent the film isnt actually you getting that film for life. Such as amazon prime, you buy a film but if that film is removed from that streaming service you then lose it! I never realised this, so have made an effort to buy some films (especially ones the kids want) on dvd now.

This thread has made me realise the benefits to dvds 😂

You could say the same about music: why would you listen to the same songs multiple times?

How bizarre to even care about something like this. If you personally like to only ever watch a film once, nobody is forcing you to watch it any more than that!

I can't understand why anybody would choose to eat cockles - they look like crusty bogies to me - but obviously people do like to eat them, and nobody is forcing me to eat them; so who on earth cares?!

yeah and your USUAL contribution to the debate !!!! a BIG fat ZEEEEROOOO!!!!😂

TWO different subjects films music msic i listen to OFTEN it brings back memories depending on your emotion at the time in can bring joy calm or sadness and MANY more emotions wheeas with films u ve scene it move on to ANOTHER great movie and pop down and SUPPORT your local charity shop!!!!!

I don't understand, it takes so much effort to use CAPS on a phone. OR ARE you on a KeYBoarD

I could say, why does anyone, including you, buy dvds, even to watch once, get with the times and stream everything! I wouldn’t say that seriously though, because I understand everyone is different and it has no bearing on my life whether others have a room filled with dvds or never watch films at all. People are different and do things their way for their own reasons, just like you do. Why do you care?

Was OP a fan of the cartoon 2 Stupid Dogs back in the day? The random capitalised words reminds me of the Little Red Riding Hood character, who would randomly shout one word mid-sentence. One of my friends in primary school and I would speak like it to wind another friend and our teacher up. Short clip here :

very clever!!! 😃

There are so many films not available on streaming services.

Re watching things can be comforting and enjoyable I've seen lots of things upteen times, and occasionally ill stick a dvd on, how many times have you watched your Les mis dvd ?

We certainly have fewer DVDs than we used to have once the dc moved out they took.some got rid of some, but we still have our favourites, Dh has a comics tour DVDs he still watches on a Saturday night if there is nothing on,

Life is short and to be enjoyed, if you enjoy rewatching films, which I often do, who are you to say that it's a waste of time.

as you probably know les miserabeles is a MUSICAL!!! totality diff to a film ive scene BRAVEHEART if i was to watch it 2nite i would know EXACTLY whats going to happen!!! i may b in the minority but prefer to watch a NEW movie + indulge in a GREAT story & become involved!!!🤔🤔

last i looked it was a FREE country i'm only stating my VIEW don't SHOOT me for it !!!!🙂🙂

I am not sure why you are shouting or emphasising im well aware Les mis is a musical there is no difference. In enjoying a musical on dvd format to watching a film over and over.

Yes people are just giving a counter opinion as to why people might like collecting, films and considering the person was elderly maybe that was films over the years that they liked !

I like rewatching films I’ve seen a number of times before. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen Star Wars for example.

Your writing style is amusing.
I don't agree with your opinion, it's great to re-watch films, in fact it's a long time since I saw a new one that was any good.

Sorry I can't actually read your posts without wondering what made you decide to capitalise random words. Have you always done it? Do you do it at work? In texts? If so do people pull you up on it?

My parents buy DVDs because they spend months abroad with no streaming services.

Not all my dvds are on streaming services. I don't live in the UK..

I'm now reading all Op's posts in Little Red Riding Hood's voice 😅
