What's in your DVD Player (besides Dark Angel)

[Michele]

what have you been watching in your DVD player besides Dark Angel.

I been watching Magnum PI, Ironside season 1, MASH and NCIS.

[Aerie]

From 1987


A fairytale about Vincent, a mythic, man-beast, who lives in a secret Utopian community of social outcasts beneath the city of New York in the vast tunnels and caverns beneath the subways.

The story is about the emotional bond connecting Vincent to the beautiful Assistant District Attorney, Catherine Chandler. He is able to sense the dangers her job brings her, and he becomes her protector.

I have watched only one DVD in the last year.*


RED
www.imdb.com/title/tt0111495/


I love this movie. What's it about? Fate, destiny, love, hope, justice, God all the biggies. The story is even kind of fairytale like, just in case any Beauty and the Beast fans are currently laid up and watching lots of DVDs. There is in fact a kind of Beauty and the Beast relationship at the heart of the film. ok fine, beauty and the old man

And it has a perfect ending. When I first saw it in the theater years ago I was holding my breath during the ending.



* My DVD player broke down a year ago and instead of buying a new one I got a DVR from my cable company. I thought I'd get another DVD player latter on but I get so much with the DVR I just never bothered. The only DVD player I have now is on my laptop.

[Aerie]

Do you own any DVDs dzero ? If so, how do you watch them? On a teeny comp screen.

I have about 115 theater movies, 10 TV movies, 11 TV mini-series and 25 TV series.

I still have about 300 movies on VHS.

I don't even have a DVR anymore. I've bought a couple but they usually end up at my parents house. Since I dumped all my pay channels my brothers record stuff for me. The only program I've had them record for me is Meerkat Manor. OMG, Flower died.



An extended family group of meerkats, The Whiskers, are observed in Africa's Kalahari desert as they forage for food, battle rival groups and avoid predators.

My entire DVD collection for Aerie who keeps track of these things.

mind of the Married Man? I know, I know all I can say is that Michelle Krusiec is very pretty

I <3 Netfilx.

I have about 40 or 50 DVD's but now im tip-toeing into Bluray. Problem is Bluray isnt cheap and most people don't have it so if i get a movie on Bluray I can pretty much only watch it at home on my HDTV, cant stick it in my laptop either so I'm reluctant to buy many of them. But I also don't want to spend money on DVD's when I'd rather wait and get Bluray so I'm pretty much at an impasse as far as recent purchases.

I've been so bowled over by the Wire i think I'm going to pick up all 5 seasons of that when i can scrape together the cash.

...uh.... nothing?

(for the last 6 weeks I've been carrying around one S1 DVD or another of DA on my laptop... ;D)

but in the spirit of the question: we're catching up on things we've recorded but haven't yet seen. In the past few weeks we've watched 4 of the 6 hrs of the miniseries, Tin Man, and 3 more eps of Flight of the Conchords ( ;D). We also have watched about 5 eps of Eureka (have watched all again from pilot on in the past couple mos in prep for the new season starting at the end of July ;D.)

or, "The Adventures of Joshua's Smarter Brother"

(starring Sandeman as "Fahther...")

(yes, I watched it & got all gooshy over the moosh, and was ribbed unmercifully for it. In fact, when he first saw Joshua, Dr. Hubby gushed, "CAH-therine....")

[Michele]

I got a Portable DVD player.

I got alot of DVDs.

[AngelZ]

R.I.P. Flower

From memory didn't Flower get knocked up and booted out of home for daring to catch the eye of the Lord of the Manor? Why is it that they always blame the girl?

That was the only bit of Meerkat Manor that I saw. I can't watch nature shows, they're too depressing.

***

The last DVD I watched was Hard Eight. Written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson (Boogie Nights).

That was Daisy ! What a little slut she was.

That was the only bit of Meerkat Manor that I saw. I can't watch nature shows, they're too depressing.

I watch it like it's a science project the whole time wishing I was one of the team earning their advanced degrees in the Kalahari desert.

What a thrill that must be.

OMG - no resemblance between that damn dog and a majestic lion. I only liked joshua in 2.01, Designate This. If only they had left him there with the other freaks.

I usually don't like Fantasy and hate it when people call it Science Fantasy. That is just stupid.

I'm loving Beauty & the Beast. It's so simple, a little cheesy, and no details about anything.

I will admit that I love Catherine's clothes. Talk about wonderful. Her nightgowns are beautiful enough to be formal wear. OMG, when I'm able to get out I'm buying a whole new wardrobe.
Enough of vintage and boots and cropped tops and jeans.

I keep forgetting Michele's topic and wondering off into idle chit chat. How embarrassing.

[dutch]

Ive been watching the Indiana Jones movies.
Still like them, lots of action.

[Michele]

I watched some of McLeod's Daughters Season7 last night.

[Mr.Clark]
