    Re: Who's got the biggest VUDU (D2D, UV) library here?



    I have over 1800 all of my Disney/MGM stuff is at cinemanow because I bought those credits the guy was selling and that's what I used them for. Not many movies left I am willing to see again to even pay $2 for until more titles are added to D2D.

      There is "Warm Bodies" again.

      Very impressive numbers.

      About what percent is HDX/HD vs. SD? Just curious. I have been bitten by the HDX bug and really find I demand it when doing transactions now.

        I'm in the same boat. There's not many more titles I plan on buying until they are added to UltraViolet. And most of the titles I do want are from MGM, Walt Disney, and other non-UV studio's like Magnolia Pictures, and Vivendi Entertainment.

          My collection is not nearly as impressive as some but I just made it to 1003 movies (D2D 10 more on Saturday to make over 1K) in Vudu and 9 TV seasons.

            I would have to say only about 10% or less are SD quality and those would be the ones not available in HDX. I didn't really see the point in putting them in a locker and then keeping SD quality. VUDU needs to give us a way to print our movie collection!

            Now with 4k coming If Vudu doesn't give us the option to go from HDX to 4k without going through this all over again. My old collection will likely stay HDX! I still don't understand why we can't upgrade from within Vudu when HDX becomes available for a couple bucks!

            I also wish these studios would format movies to something that fits a dang HD tv without the stupid letter box! Seems stupid to me to have a 60" TV and the top and bottom 10 or so inches are black bars!

              landing over the 1.8k hash mark with as much detail in HDX upgrades as you have put into it clearly indicates a labor of love.

              Again, quite impressive.

              Maybe one day I will be cool like you.

                damn solid collection!

                Both Tomb Raiders. Me too.

                All three Mummy's. Me too.

                All three Scorpion Kings. In my Wish-List...

                I notice Crouching Tiger, but no other Chinese ones. There are a lot of good ones out there if you ever want to look into the foreign side of things.

                Curse of the Golden Flower, I could recommend unequivocally. There is also one called The Banquet or AKA Legend of the Black Scorpion. Not out on Vudu yet, but very good. Also, House of Flying Daggers. The granddaddy is "Hero". Really a must see. Jackie Chan produced one called Legendary Amazons recently. Not as good, but still not too bad.

                For French films, The Chorus got high marks and also Amelie.

                  This,of course, is a matter of taste. However, any presentation other than the Original Aspect Ratio (OAR) means you lose something to achieve it. For instance, many films are in 2.35:1 aspect ratio, which means you have black bars at the top and bottom, to achieve the 1.78:1 that most (if not all) HD TVs display some cropping must be done.

                  Most TVs have a "zoom" feature, or at least various display options, that will allow you to adjust the picture to fit your entire screen. You will lose the sides of the movie, just like if Vudu or the studio did the cropping. This is the best way to achieve what you want, because you can have it your way, and the people who are sticklers for movies in OAR can have it their way.

                  Upon rereading your post, maybe you meant you just wish studios would shoot in 1.78:1? I could go for that.

                    With today's purchases, I have passed the 5,000-movie mark on Vudu...5,013 to be exact.



                    I've decided I hate the Vudu2go software. It doesn't recognize half my movies, and the ones I submit for correction don't get corrected. As soon as the half-price sale is over, I'm through with it. Easier just to bring everything to WalMart. I'm there a couple times every month anyway.

                      All three Scorpion Kings. NO WAY. I have the first two but the 3rd Scorpion King was so bad I couldn't even sit through the whole movie.

                        I do hear you. It is a series which went one movie too far.

                        I have a bit of a character flaw though. I like to nail series down when I do one. Die Hard, for instance. I like to have them all. #3 is the best, BTW.

                        Thx for the heads up, but I fear I will get it anyway just to close out the series.

                            Yeah sometimes I do a similar thing and because I'm getting hooked. For instance I bought the double feature of Lockout and Battle: Los Angeles even though I didn't care for Battle: Los Angeles that much but it had the UV for both of them at Walmart. I liked Lockout and it was only $12.97 for both of them.

                              I'm at 1642 (movies only, 62 TV shows, but not all are full seasons) with 9 in the queue waiting for my gohastings order to be delivered today to add 4 or 5 more. I honestly can't see myself joining that 5000 club Between gohasting sales, Swapadvd (A great site for anyone looking to trade old dvds/blus for different ones) and bestbuy upgrade and save it took me over a year to get 1642 and I'm at the saturation point I think. My swapadvd credits are building up with nothing much to use them on.

                                You got the original Predator. Most people don't, but it is a fine move to add to anyone's HDX collection. Guy film though. Cigars & guns.

                                Thx for the heads up on Sawadvd.com. Nice of you to share your secrets with us.

                                For me, my wife controls the budget. She approves disposable income purchases. I just got a $150+ through about a month ago and fear I am parked for awhile. My next marker is 500, but I think it will take me a long time to hoe that row.
