Today we're having a little conversation on the collector mentality, specifically the movies that we keep in our collection that we don't like very much and maybe even HATE! Let's do it!

I personally do not buy or keep movies in my collection that I hate. 1. Because I’m limited on shelf space and don’t wanna waste any of it and 2. Because I want my collection to represent me with movies I love and am passionate about.

I am a completionist, Hell I have 104 Stephen King adaptions across Blu Ray & DVD & I would say half of his adapted works are hot garbage, I also collect Arnold Schwarzenegger & he's made some questionable films in his time, I have nearly completed my Denzel Washington colection also, one of the few actors to never do a bad movie in his near 50 years in the industry.*

The very first time I watched "A Clockwork Orange", I didn't like it at all. Today, decades later, I feel it is a masterpiece. I remember being bored with "Lawrence of Arabia" upon first viewing, whereas it may be my all-time favorite movie now. Conversely, I remember loving "Field of Dreams" when I first saw it in theaters in 1989. Today, it is "meh" in my eyes. Our tastes change.

Disney Star Wars need not exist. We gave The Force Awakens a free pass. The Last Jedi was a travesty, and after that, there was absolutely no way Rise of Skywalker could rescue anything. Disney just thought they could turn it into another MCU and that's never been what fans wanted. Although I'll give Rogue One credit where it's due as that movie was really good.

We're on a completely different spectrum re: Under the Skin. It has nothing to do with ScarJo being naked. It's unsettling, goes into dark places that makes you feel uncomfortable, and disgusting in some places (like you said), but at the end of the day it is a horror movie. A pretty well made one at that, while artsy in some sense but not so much as something like The House That Jack Built which now I cannot recommend given your opinion of this one.

I was the exact opposite! I stormed out of the theater after seeing a reboot that should've been a sequel, but I bought it because I wanted to give it a second chance.

I can understand holding onto something in case you eventually might like it. Now , if it was taking up space that you need for something that you do like , makes sense then to get rid of it.

The Humans was originally a play that was rewritten for film. I think it's an absolute masterpiece look at the PTSD people suffer following of the events of 9/11 in NYC. If you watch it with the subtitles on, it's a completely different experience and every tiny detail makes sense. There's so much going on and I think much of it is lost because it's hard to follow where the dialogue is going, hence, the subtiles. It was also mismarketed as a horror movie when the truth is the horror is really the unresolved traumas people live with. I'd give that one another chance. The last scene with the father absolutely broke me. It's brilliant.

I don't care for any of the Burton / Schumacher era Batman films, but I have the anthology boxset because the documentary "Shadow of The Bat: The Cinematic Saga Of Batman" is amazing. And the catch is that the entire documentary is spread across all four films. In addition to that documentary, there are additional documentaries as well, and all are fascinating. I also purchased the Diamond LUX edition of "Batman 1989 because it came with an all new documentary about the marketing and merchandising of the "1989 Batman" movie. The documentary is very entertaining and informative. I enjoy these documentaries despite my disdain for the movies because I was there back in the summer of 89 and the HYPE surrounding "Batman" had to be seen to be believed. The level of anticipation for a movie like "Batman" in 1989 wouldn't be seen again until a decade later, when "The Phantom Menace" was coming out.

Tastes change. Getting older means seeing many things differently. I don't know which movies I'll like in 30 years or if I'll even watch movies by then, let alone if I'll still be alive. Also I often like a movie more or less just by watching it at another time of day or because of my mood or because of the movies I watched before or after it. There are practical considerations like money, time and space but all in all I can't easily decide which movie is "worth keeping". I think we are tricking ourselves into believing we know what we want or need in the future.

Ooh, you don't like Midsommar, and I was thinking of getting that special A24 release, but worried now 😬. Do you like The Wicker Man?

@jonathannoble9465 27 күн бұрын

I didn’t see the directors cut of Midsommar but some people say that this is the one to watch. It’s 171 minutes though and that A24 shop exclusive is not cheap

Funny enough, my wife and I were just looking over our movie collection and deciding what movies to get rid of. It's not really because we're not going to ever watch them again (which we mostly will not), but more that we are thinking about moving to another state next year and the more we get rid of, the less we need to move. Right now though, some of the biggest pieces of crap I have in my collection include Silent Night Deadly Night 3-5, The Dark Knight Rises, The Watchmen Ultimate Edition, the Rob Zombie Halloween movies, Bride of Chucky, Seed of Chucky, Ant-Man 3, Thor Dark World, and Black Widow. Oh, and a few movies that are in collections like the Universal Horror 30 movie box set and Kino's Film Noir box sets. There's some truly bad stinkers in those, but if I get rid of say Set #10, then it would look weird having 11+.

I have a rule to keep my collection from getting to out of hand. I use IMDB to keep track and rate my movies that I watch. They use the 1-10 scale. If it's below avg imo.. lower than 5, it's GONE. Idc if it's a steelbook, criterion etc. Goes right to a family member, or sell it on ebay etc. So a 4 or lower. As far as exceptions. Maybe if it was part of a box set, or a trilogy etc. But I haven't run into that issue as of yet

I had movies in my collection that I felt nothing for, but once when I moved I tossed them out. I regreted a few and brought a few back. For the most part I don't buy movies I hate. All the movies I own on DVD that I hate were gifted to me and later I threw them out or gave them away. On aonther note I just got my copy of Michael Keaton's first Batman film on 4K steelbook. Just about to watch it as I wrote this.

Lol, tried to watch under the skin alone, couldn’t finish it; my gf tried to watch it on her own, couldn’t finish it. Then we tried to watch it together, and we couldn’t finish it!! It is SO boring, although I agree we should revisit movies and have an open mind!

@devononair 28 күн бұрын

I agree about star wars. The new writers have this problem where they think everything has to connect to everything else and everyone has to be related to each other and it becomes a convoluted yawn fest. When I saw the emperor was back, I nearly rolled my eyes out of my sockets.

I have the same feelings about RZ's Halloween. I despise that movie. I also agree that Part II is a little better because it's more of his own thing, but it's still a mess and I don't really care for it either. I keep them only because they came in that SF box set.

The latest Resident Evil movie I thought was worse than all the schlocky films that came before it... But my film hoarder brain said I had to complete the collection, so I bit the bullet and bought the (admittedly nice) Steelbook edition 😂😭

I’m pretty much in agreement with you on all those except for Under the Skin. On first viewing I thought she was an alien, but slowly came to realize that she’s a robot controlled by aliens to bring them humans to feed on. The guy on the motorcycle may another alien or robot to keep her on her mission. Just brilliant. Zone of Interest is also brilliant but make sure to watch it with a good Atmos system.

I usually do a lot of research, check reviews, or watch movies before I consider buying them to avoid collecting a lot of junk. Having said that, when it comes to my 100-movie and 200-movie sci-fi and horror movie boxed sets (from Mill Creek Entertainment, for example), naturally, there are movies in those sets I don't care for or hate entirely, but since they are part of those sets or are accompanied by other movies on the same disc, I'm stuck with those movies. Haha! Plus, I have a lot of Full Moon Features Grindhouse DVD's that I mainly bought for the box art either on big box VHS (reissued) or on DVD, but those movies are not spectacular for the most part. They are fun to display though. :)
