Any anons here still buy Blu rays?

Actually it started season 3. But I still see what you mean. I like to get the blu ray seasons not only for picture quality but also because they manage to put all the episodes on one disc.

I own several things on Blu-ray Rick and Morty Seasons 1-3 for example

No, I pirate everything. I did get Venture Bros season 1&2 DVDs and season 3-5 Blurays as a gift last year though, and considering it's my favorite show and I'm a completionist I'll probably buy the rest of the series as it comes out on Blu ray

This is more Yea Forums than Yea Forums but I collect physical copies when I can.

Honestly when the show is finished I plan on buying a complete box set, despite the fact that I already own all of the dvds

Yes,

No.

Pics are at least 2 years old. Some stuff only exists or has good versions on DVD, like Stand Alone Complex or Futurama (or season 1-2 VB).
Other stuff I've since upgraded to blu ray like Bebop, FLCL and the like.

I'm still holding out for the last few theatrical cape movies that haven't come to blu ray, like Steel and Son of the Mask.

Son of the Mask will never get a Blu-Ray release.

holy shit, this makes me salivate. What's your favorite on the shelf? I just checked out Army of Shadows from my library, gonna watch it this weekend. My criterion shelf is pitiful in comparison to this.

>still
All the time, I prefer not to stuff my hard drive that can fail at any time.

I thought that about Supergirl, which only released theatrically in Europe, but it eventually got one. Blankman is one I may never see on Blu Ray though.

Personally I'm fond of "Head", in the "America Lost and Found: The BBS Story" box set. But I'm also a Wes Anderson junkie, so any of his movies are alright by me. Same goes for the Qatsi Trilogy as well.

I haven't had the money to exploit recent Criterion sales, though. Mostly because I've been starting Drafthouse Films and Vinegar Syndrome collections as well.

How many [as] series get home video releases recently? Feels like the Venture Bros. ones are the only ones I see ads for when watching.

Rick and Morty is on Blu-Ray

I'm waiting for Squidbillies to finish and hope for a box set.
VB really needs a box set, not only are 2 seasons DVD only, but the Blu Ray case designs are all over the place.

where are your arrow video BDs you pleb

As of now, Rick and Morty and VB are the only shows getting regular releases right now. In the past they've put out BDs of Robot Chicken, Metalocolypse and Black Dynamite. I think Gen:LOCK is getting one too. I really want them to put out a season 1+2 set of Final space but that probably won't happen.

I wish streams had commentary. Making DVD/BluRy extras now must be so depressing because its not a big deal anymore. Back in 2000/2001 when DVD started gathering steam it was a huge thing.

I'm hoping that the over abundance of streaming services will drive people back to physical media but they'll probably pirate instead.

I just want them to release a complete set of moral Orel, I know Australia got one. I don’t know if it came with extras but the first season did and they were amazing

Australia gets a lot of cool releases that the US doesn't. Pic related

Personally I've always seen Arrow as the UK equivalent of Criterion. As such, I'm not too interested in what they release; I do know that they have US releases of their films but it doesn't appeal to the collector in me.

Moral Orel is amazing.

>drafthouse films
kino taste user

Thanks. The sad thing is that they folded the "Drafthouse Films" label in, like, 2016 or 2017, and now I'm gonna have to complete my collection by way of eBay or lucky thrift store finds. "Trailer War", "Spring" and "The Invitation" were the only titles available on their website that I didn't own when I bought them a few months ago.

i'm quite familiar with drafthouse films. lived in austin for a few years and every alamo drafthouse had a vending machine with a selection of blurays/dvds. $10 each. really wish i had scooped up a bunch when i could've. now miami connection or the fp goes for $50+ on ebay and i randomly saw wake in fright at a thrift shop for $35 a few weeks ago. you definitely have some of their better titles.

Awesome!
At least they could work with the covers.

>$10/title
Christ, that sounds amazing.

Yeah, I'm gonna have a hell of a time trying to find them. Hopefully they do sell the titles at other Drafthouses; I don't live in Texas. Honestly I don't know why they shuttered the whole label, even if they moved to something new. At least keep the BDs in production, you know?

rights issues i suppose. bummer for sure. their new label (neon) hasn't produced much that interesting and looks like they aren't doing reissues of the older obscure films anymore.

NEON is geared towards theatrical distribution it seems, like A24 and Annapurna.
On the bright side, we at least have AFGA/Something Weird offering more obscure films now, like "Godmonster of Indian Flats".

>AFGA/Something Weird
yeah at least we have that. been considering grabbing their who killed captain alex/bad black bluray set.

When I have the money they'll probably be the next label I start collecting.

They're better than the US dvd releases.

Walmart NEVER pulls anything.

He's just there... staring.

Oops!!

consumerist.com/tag/raiders-of-the-lost-walmart/index.html

Wow, that was actually interesting read. Thanks for that. I guess it did sell out. I was wrong.

>consumerist
I used to love that site but Consumer Reports bought them and shut them down and no one at CR is as funny as the consumerist guy was.

I was committed to owning the entire MCU, shows included, on Blu-Ray. I was doing really well for a few years but Inhumans threw a wrench in that, not to mention I have zero interest in the Hulu shows and Netflix is super inconsistent with what they release. And now that I'm so checked out of the whole thing I think I'll just get Endgame for the sake of completion and only buy the ones I want to own after that.

Just get endgame and stop. Don't let the MCU pull you into their bullshit of fem Thor and other shit.

That's the plan. I'll be fucked if I ever pay money for Far From Good and Phase 4 looks dead boring.

Dude, honestly when phase 1 was out I have as so pumped. End of phase 3 and the news of phase 4, I'm so fucking drained of MCU. I already feel that Disney basically telling phase 1 fans they are too old for the new movies.

I usually don't but for the Venture Bros I make an exception just for the commentary tracks. I had a bitch of a time hunting down seasons 1 and 2 and eventually had to settle for used copies. I'd kill for a re-release in modern resolutions.

I'm content with just having all of phases 1-3. I got both seasons of Agent Carter and Luke Cage season 1 too but I'm gonna trade those in for store credit and get some shit I actually want, instead of shit I tolerate for the sake of a collection.

Mine still has a row of PS2 games for one of the Mummy sequels.

Yes. Pirate the shows as they air, support the creators later by buying the blu-rays. I've been doing it for VB for a decade at this point

Iron Man came out when I was in the first grade, now Tony is dead and Cap is old/retired. I'm more than happy to watch more movies like Aquaman and Shazam, or even non-capeshit.

So do I user

Any idea of the australian release of Moral Orel comes with commentaries? y favrite part of the orel orel dvd is the commentary for the best christmas ever which is just Jay Johnston bitching at a producer for releasing that episode first and the commentary on that comic con panel where dino got into a fight with doc hammer and jackson publick (theres a secret commentary with doc hammer and jackson publick talking about that day)

I was so close to buying that Zatoichi collection for a reasonable price, then it sold out and resellers quadrupled the cost.

...

If you have a net worth under $500k and you purchase physical media you are really losing at life. Just buy a poster if you want something to look at. The media itself is eternally free.

Well damn. I'm glad some eternal denizen of Yea Forums could help me assess the quality of my life and everything. You have any advice on sexual techniques to try on my wife?

I aim to buy everything i like in physical and on BD too.

So far I've bought every Archer and Adventure Time in BD, but they seemed to ahve stopped and switched to DVD only.
I hate buying DVD shit now. Need it in HD if it was done in HD and i bought myself a couple sets of speakers to hear it how it's supposed to be heard too.

I've rebought various series like Batman:TAS just to have it on BD. Will do the same for Batman Beyond.

Still waiting for Gumball to get anything. Same with Bob's Burger.

I also have a sub with Crunchyroll and watch various shit there. Sometimes i watch one episode of something, love it so much, and just buy it on BD thirty minutes later. Terror in Resonance, Megalo Boxing. Kids on the Slope.

Fucking good series deserve to be watched in better quality than streaming shit.

Streaming in the future will be soooo fucking shit too. There's going to be so many streaming services that I'm not going to have 5 services just to watch the shit i used to on just ONE service a couple of years ago. I hit my max at 2 services.
Also, fuck Disney for their horrid BD releases.

>buy
>actual ad OP
Burn it all down.

I still buy blu rays constantly. Not really of many Yea Forums things but just blu rays in general. I'd put everything on hard drives but a 1:1 copy of a blu ray is usually like 20GB and I ain't got the means to hold that much space.

I'm going to keep buying because streaming services are shit, until there is a one-stop solution I'm not subscribing to any of them. I don't want to be subscribed to 10 different services just to watch movies. Unfortunately that's the direction we're going in so pretty soon I'm going to be forced to pirate everything.

I still buy Blue Rays/4k disks, but that is slowly coming to a close. Its becoming less and less worth it. For a time it was cheaper to get the disk, then the same price and you still got the digital code. Now its more expensive AND I get it later than the digital release. I only buy movies I REALLY like on Blu Ray. I almost cracked and got Endgame on digital, but I only have a few more days to go...

I felt the same way until they came up with Movies Anywhere. Whenever you buy a disk, it allows you to add it to this service, and that service sinks to my itunes. So anything I get there goes to itunes/my apple TV, which is how I watch stuff.

People are going to lose all loyalty to a service and just hop from one to another. Watch everything you want on Netflix, cancel and go to Prime, watch everything there, skip to whatever else, and back to Netflix when they release something else you want.

not often, honestly depends on what it is. last blu ray i picked up was spiderverse

I hate how many cartoon shows only have shitty DVD releases to this day, at least we finally got BTAS on blu ray.

You'd think a company so hellbent on making sure none of their IP's ever get controlled by the general public would put some fucking effort into their blu rays, that looks fucking awful.

bought during the criterion sale
25 films + supplements for 100 bucks is a pretty damn good deal
the case also has brilliant art

based Criterion poster

Just curious, do you rewatch these a lot?
I've got about 13 or 14 movies from criterion (as well as 3 box sets) but only because they're stuff that I know I'm going to watch more than twice.

>Zatoichi
My nigga. You should really get a copy of Darkness is His Ally to finish that collection off.

Wasn't there something about the BD releases being unedited episodes that didn't have all of the art layers and music implemented?

should grab the Lone Wolf and Cub collection, too

I rather to buy stuff but it's just cheaper and easier for me to stream for the time being.

I'd be interested to know more if you've got the info, can't say I've noticed any problems though I've only watched maybe the first five episodes of the series so far on it.

This, the commentaries are amazing, like a really good podcast

The commentary is great. I can listen to those guys bullshit about stuff for hours.

One Walmart near where I lived still had a row PS2 games, but one of them was a copy of Disgaea.
