    Thanks @JohannaP and @siren34
    luckily I got them all when they were originally released and didn't have to pay the secondary market prices :)

    I haven't got any fancy collector cases, nor do I have giant massive stacks of DVDs, but I have a fair few, they're all mine, and I love them. There's probably about two dozen DVDs missing from the pictures because people have borrowed those.













    And if you don't like it, you can take it up with my buddy Pinhead.



    He doesn't kid around.

    As I'm stuck at home with terrible man-flu at the moment, I finally took some decent shots of my DVD collection

    Not great, but getting better all the time.

    Nice collection m00ch. Many great titles, and a nice variety. Taking pictures of ones DVD collection is not easy. The dvd-cases reflect the light and then you can't read the titles properly. But your pictures were very good :-)

    Nice to see another person who owns the Hammer Horror box by the way :-)

    I'll try and upload some new pictures of my collection soon.

    @JohannaP: Not heaven, but pretty close to it if you are a movie fan :-)

    @them00ch: I have a house insurance, but not a specific insurance on the movie collection. The main reason that I took new pictures now is that I'm actually heading down to my insurrance company to talk to them.

    @lovelyT: Thanks :-)

    I know I'm a bit off topic, but as we were talking about insurance just above...

    I still have no picture of my DVDs as they're still in boxes, but I have a question and maybe someone here can help me.
    I recently moved from France and I'm now living in the French West Indies. I didn't take many things with me but I kept the main part of my collection and I'm wondering if the very high hygrometry here could be a problem.
    During the month of september for example, according to the forecasts, the hygrometry will fluctuate between 83 and 92% and the temperature between 28 and 32°C.

    Is there a risk of deterioration for my beloved DVDs? If yes, does somebody know a way to prevent it?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated :)

    @ Shayah

    I think the worst that would happen is some moisture on your discs if they are kept in a constant humid environment. Might damage any cardboard / paper in the packaging over time, but the discs will be fine. Just make sure they are properly dry before you put them in the player! :)

    edit: A certain naughty 2 year old little boy put one of my DVDs in hot bath water once. Must have been in there a good 15 minutes before we noticed. Packaging was ruined, disc was - and still is - fine. You cant get much more humid than a hot bath!

    As far as I know, the humidity won't harm the dvd's very much (as long as they are good quality originals, no cheap discs that you burnt yourself). If you are unsure, it might be a nice trick to put a few grains of rice in each case (making sure they don't scratch the discs of course), which can take up some of the water in the air.

    OK guys, thanks for your answers, I'm quite relieved now. But I'll try to ductape a few rice grains to be really sure. And get a few carrots for the killer rabbit, prevention is better than cure...

    Nice "Collection-Start" lackofselfcontrol :-)

    I hate it when the distributors decide that they have to translate the titles of movie. Why call the movies "Alla helgons blodiga natt" when the name of the movie is "Halloween". We never translate the titles of music albums so why do it with movies. It's just stupid.

    It's like a DVD, but with more space on it, cause it's bigger.

    I have a dvd collection related question. Where do you guys find good information on new dvd releases? I always seem to end up on sites like Rotten Tomatoes or Moviefone, which have up to date information, but these sites are maintained by people who hardly take interest in anything that's not coming from Hollywood.

    Does anyone know a site that has decent information on dvd releases in, say, Korea, Argentina and Finland?
