Bought but not watched!

[stimpy]

I seem to have an afflication for buying DVD's but never actually getting round to watching them, usually films I've already seen - does anyone else share this disease?

My current unwatched collection is:

Predator SE - Had this for around 4 months now.

Seven - Bought this at the same time as Predator.

Blade 2 - About 3 months.

Black Hawk Down - 5 Days

And the winner is...

LOTR (FOTR) SE - Got this last christmas, watched all the extra discs but never the actual film - 9 months.

I know a few people with this problem, and still they buy. It tends to affect them across many areas...such as buying games etc.

Got a fuckload - at least 15-20 videos/DVD's that I've bought but not had time to watch.



(But then that's because I've got so many of the fuckers that it's a pain in the ass to spot 'em)

Only got one DVD that i havnt watched yet, but thats because my cash flow went down for a while :-]

 

[Ono]

I refuse to answer this question.

It is well known over at the DVD forums that I have a pile of unwatched DVDs about 4 ft high. (and growing).

Did you actually pay for these two?

Besides other things I got about 6 books a few dvd's and even some pc hardware that I've not bothered to install because I often find myself too busy 'doing nothing' to actually install them

"Why do today what you can put off till tomorrow?" is my favourite misquote.

I think that is my motto in life - I spent the entire day doing sod all knowing I had to do some network crap, an hour before it had to be done I start rushing around, my theory on why I do this is I'm a lazy bastard

 

[Happy Go Lucky]

I've had 8 mile and bourne identity for couple of months now, not watched yet....too much stuff on TV and repeat watching other dvd's.

hey it's not like blockbuster want them back

The Thin Red Line, over a year.

[Ono]

About 25 of my unwatched pile are still sealed FFS!

Daniel Day-Lewis is good in it.
