I often buy DVDs with the intention of watching but years later they are still sealed, unopened, yet to be watched.

The horror!

Hmmm.... I turn the lights off when I am watching in the theater room.

Okay, okay... you want something really really good... a serious confession...

My copy of Bye-Bye Birdie is still sealed!

What can I say?

Well, no secrets here.
Every movie I own has been watched -check
I already get enough thunder from my woofers, if I turned them up more I am afraid something will fall down -check
I wear at least two pieces of clothing while watching films :sneaky: - check

And finally, I would recommend to any of those that have sealed movies collecting dust, watch it or sell it. Unless it is accruing value as a collectors piece in which you intend to will to a family member. :rolleyesno:

Todd shame on you for never watching Avatar :olddude:

Ok, i'm getting of my soapbox now. :greengrin:

Well, lets see...I have still not watched Schindlers list, it's still wrapped up in the plastic.
Speaking of dirt, if the cost of building our new house keeps going up I'm going to have to just keep the floor in the theater room dirt. :wink:
