Alias season 5. I can't belive how shitty the packaging is and the paltry extras are disgusting. The show however is great!

Now I only need to find the time to enjoy it.

- Brokeback Mountain - Four Star Collection ($4.99)
- Doom - Unrated Extended Edition ($5.99)
- Drumline - Widescreen Edition ($4.00)
- Entrapment - Special Edition ($4.00)
- Field of Dreams - Two-Disc Anniversary Edition / Widescreen ($5.99)
- Ice Age ($4.99)

Out of the ten, three of those (Brokeback Mountain, Doom and Master & Commander) are blind buys, and before any gives me grief, I bought The Little Mermaid 'cause Rene Auberjonois did the voice for the French chef.

I want to be honest. I turned 31 early last month, and when I stepped into Tower Records and purchased "Project A-ko" an anime film which I haven't seen since I was 17 years old -- well, that really was somewhat of an "I'm too old for this..." sort of epiphany, and made me reevaluate the type of DVD purchases that I've tended to make since I first purchased a DVD player 5 years ago. Either dark/gritty/grim films or all-out action films!

So, I decided to purchase "Hitch," "Sideways," and "The Notebook," etc. to balance out the somewhat immature purchases of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and "Project A-ko" on DVD.

Time for me to grow up. Which doesn't necessarily mean throw out all your "toys" and play golf instead, but rather strike that right balance, if you know what I mean? :thumbsup:

I gotcha. A few months ago, some of my co-workers were lookin' over my DVD library, and told me I had too much sci fi.

I read over the titles, and added 'em up. Turns out that out of just over a hundred movies, sixty-eight of 'em were sci fi / fantasy movies.

Since then, I've tried to go for a more balanced library. Each time I get a sci fi movie, I buy a comedy or drama or something. Each time I buy a comedy or drama, I don't get a sci fi movie, just dependin' on what kind of movie I pick out first while shoppin'.

In September, I checked, and it was a 52% / 48% split between comedy / drama and sci fi / fantasy, puttin' sci fi in the minority of my library.
