My Blu-Rays
I am a big proponent of digital media. All my music is digitized, and Vicki and I have recently gotten rid of 75% of our DVD collection, now that streaming media has begun to come into its own. We have the bare minimum remaining, our favorite movies, things that we would want to have when we move and don't yet have an internet connection, or when the world ends and we have a week to live before the fires reach St Paul.So Blu-Ray for me is not a proposition of revamping my entire collection. I used to think in those terms, but there are so many good movies out there, I can't even hope to own a tenth of them. A conversation with Alan got me thinking, if I really had to choose 10 movies to own on Blu Ray, and they would have to be IT, what would they be?
- BBC's Earth
- Hero
- Wall-E
- The Nightmare Before Christmas
- The Fifth Element
- V for Vendetta
- Baraka
- 2001
- Ratatouille
- I Am Legend
From what I have seen of movies, this would probably be where the list ends, until some really fantastic movie comes out and I need to update it (though there isn't anything on the horizon yet that would boot these off).
