STEVE AND HIS DVD: PART 1 OF 1: I have to admit DVD rules. I watched Unbreakable last night and I was amazed as to the quality of the picture and sound. So much so, I went on a buying spree today and bought Spider-Man (2 disc collectors), Zulu, Fight Club (2 disc collectors) and Requiem of a Dream (Directors cut).

Tonight, Lawrence of Arabia...I can hardly keep myself from saying I'm sick and going home.

I can't imagine ever putting up with VHS again. Now I just have to buy Yojimbo, Seven Samurai, Hidden Fortress and a couple of other Akira Kurosawa movies to please myself...and Good Fellas...The Alamo...Bladerunner...well, lots more.

I know what you mean about DVD, both the technology and the shopping impulses. My beloved surprised me this Xmas with one. My fav so far is LOTR's "Fellowship of the Ring" Special Extended DVD Edition. But I couldn't control myself last night and ordered two animated Terry Pratchett stories, and I'm thinking I've got some new favs on the way.

Must. Learn. To. Control. Shopping. Spree.

I dream of a Tivo but it's not available here in Canada. Bell satelite and Rogers satelite both have a PVR available but only if you subscribe to digital satelite. Too pricey for this lad.

Welcome to the 21st Century, a few years late...

Christ, You think DVD's are awesome. Wait until you get your hands on a Tivo.
