Losing a DVD Collection Sucks
I had my DVD collection since 2004. When I started working and had money of my own at the age of 14, I started going to the local Blockbuster and buy used DVDs to build a collection. I can still remember my first movie: Hard Rain. I continued building my collection progressing from low budget horror movies to action movies and comedies and dramas. Until recently, I had attained 357 movies. A good chunk of cinema. However, certain circumstances and situations happened where I had to give up my DVD collection entirely. I know losing DVDs shouldn't be something worth being upset over, but it still sucks.
My DVD collection was like a testament to my love for movies and my determination to open myself to new experiences. It also showed that I had a lot of free time in my hands. (Insert nerdy loser joke here) Anyways, well it just feels terrible to see all that hard-earned money and searching go down the drain so quickly, but it was a necessary action on my part.
Don't ever let people tell you that your movie collection are just objects. For a movie fan, they are an extension of yourself and rightfully so.
Sad
My heart goes out to ya. I would feel the same way. If my house was on fire, I think the first thing I would grab would be the DVDs and my hard drives. I'm more than willing to help in any way I can.
Dude, this is bumming me out. I'm totally taking mine with me when I'm dead. I'm going to need one fuck of a large plot.
I know how you feel, dude. But fear not, Sending some stuff your way ;)
That sucks man, I'm sorry to hear that. In a world moving to all-digital, I'm glad to see there are still folks who care about having an actual disc to play in an actual machine. It sucks to be back at square one but I'm sure you'll get back up there and surpass your original collection!
It sucks to lose a collection that you've been building for years. But at least you have the chance to start again.
Ah man, that's terrible. Just such a fucking bummer. Hopefully you will be able to start rebuilding your collection soon.
Nice Blog sorry to hear that though, I know how you feel about your own Movie Collection.Yeah its hard too let a Dvd collection go with all those great movies im sure you have.
AH , Dude , that blows !! You've stated a collection's value to it's owner perfectly . SHITE !!
That blows, Dude. Some people just don't understand that to movie lovers their collection is everything to them.
