His first post in about a month and a half and that bastard Johnson tagged me! A quiz about DVDs, nonetheless. It's a tough go for me-as I am one who has long professed to be generally against the buying of DVDs, especially versus music (would I rather buy something with unlimited listening potential or something that I will watch maybe twice in my lifetime?) Of course the obvious exceptions are...well, you'll have to read below...
1. Total number of films I own on DVD/video:
I'm going to exclude TV series from this question, since it explicitly says "films." The answer is four. The "Lord of the Rings" series and "Atack of the Clones." The latter was actually a gift, though I will probably get around to owning the whole sage at some point in my life.
2. The last film I bought:
"Return of the King," of course.
3. The last film I watched:
"Private Lives." A VHS rental from the best rental store in the Twin Cities, which I'm happy to plug: Robbinsdale's "Video Universe." That said, I wasn't a huge fan of the movie.
4. Five films that I watch a lot or that mean a lot to me:
I don't watch any films "a lot," other than TLOR and SW (from each of which I will only allow myself to pick one), so I will go purely on the "means a lot to me" bent. Still tough, as there are many many movies that have made an deep and lasting impression on me (though not so lasting that I can remember them at this time):
- Fellowship of the Ring
- Blazing Saddles
- Star Wars
- Roger & Me
- Pee Wee's Big Adventure
Funny, you'd never guess from that list that I'm not even all that into sci-fi or comedies these days..
Tag 5 people? Do they have to be bloggers, all? I can't do it. Most of my friends are un-connected. That Bastard, Johnson, already took Pat, so I'll throw in the only other blogger with whom I'm in regular contact: T-Clog.

I will give it an old college try.
1. Total number of films I own on DVD: I will say that I will exclude all of the video we have because we are trying to get rid of most of them. The only video that I want to keep is the "Lonesome Dove" series. As for DVD's, I have about 5-7. Let me see if I can list them. The collection thus far: "The Natural", "Rudy", A League of thier Own", "My Side of the Mountain", "The Lorax", "Hoosiers", and "It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown!"
2. The Last Film I bought:
The last film that I bought was probably "The Lorax".
3. The last film that I watched:
Sarah and I are trying to watch the Star Wars movies from I through 6 in order. We are currently stuck at Episode II. We are looking for time to see Episode III together.
4. Five films that I watch a lot or that mean a lot to me:
They are as follows: "Rudy", "Field of Dreams", "Hoosiers", "The Man Who Planted Trees", and "The Lorax".
Probably not going to be sending this out to anyone, because I really don't know who to send it out to.
Me - bitch.
1. Let's see - Pee Wee's Big Adventure, LOTR, Local Hero, Lawrence of Arabia, Amelie, The Right Stuff - I guess that makes 6 or 8 depending on how you count LOTR.
2. Last one bought - I think was ROTK.
3. Last that I watched was American Splendor, a Netflix delivery.
I also don't really think owning lots of DVD's make sense - just a few that really trip your trigger.
Dan already said he was sending it to you in his post BITCH! :)
My bad, AJ already sent it to you BITCH!
