thank you for the kind words! ☺I actually stutter a lot in my personal life lol doing CZcams & talking about my collection & movies has really helped with my speaking.
@@thelastmoviestanding you have a very calm and inviting channel. You're up against everyone and their mom doing what you're doing but you're handing out great info in a way that I would be hanging out with a friend. Keep it up, an easy subscribe
As a physical media collector since around 1990, it is the topic I watch the most about on CZcams. I have a few favs like Heath@Cereal at Midnight, Jeff Rauseo, John@LetsTalk & MidLevelMedia. I just discovered your videos yesterday and I'm adding you to my list of favs. Earnest conversation, physical media topics I care about, and sincerity I very much appreciate. Kudos, keep up the great work.
@@thelastmoviestanding I kept mine and I just got my super betamax deck fixed after years of being broken along with my dvhs vcr. I have frozen and the incredibles 2 on bluray 3d those might be rare but im not sure.
When I knew MMPR: The Movie was going out of print, I kind of ignored it. Then about 6 months later, I got a real hankering to watch it, so I started looking on ebay or various sites, and it was like $75 or so. I then realized that I already had it, it came included in the Power Rangers Steelbook set as a bonus disk. I was happy to have found this out.
@@thelastmoviestanding I have the orginal DVD..... the dvd was good.... but the blu ray upgrade was well worth the price..... and so much more vibrant..... I could justify the cost but that is the only movie that will get that treatment..... its was a nostalgia purchase for me when I was in war in 01-04 between Afghanistan and Iraq.... that when the movie was released.... brought back a ton of memories both good and bad
D.O.A. Is a movie I’ve always seen the poster for but never realized one of my favorite Hong Kong directors directed it. He directed a fair share of awesome Hong Kong action films!
I wonder what the state of blu ray collecting will be like 10 years from now when almost everything not released on 4K will be out of print and rare. We've seen many titles not make the jump from VHS to DVD or DVD to Blu Ray. In the case of 4K, I bet it will be hundreds, if not thousands of titles that don't make the jump considering the cost of restoring titles for a higher definition format and the more limited demand. I imagine most will begrudgingly adopt digital at some point. At the end of day, film is about enjoying the movies without having to spend a fortune on limited edition packaging. It's also more difficult to justify paying exorbitant prices on movies if they're not helping to subsidize the release of new titles. I already have several dozen OOP titles but not knowing thier worth, threw out the packaging when I had to make a difficult move which would make them far less desirable.
Yes collectors have those OMG moments of overspending. I had a few when I was collecting Laser Discs, I found, Up The Creek, on laser disc and it hadn't had a DVD release yet, so I spent $110 on the laser disc.
Got Near Dark on eBay for “like new” for $30 on eBay. I’ll never get rid of it unless a 4k release comes out on a 4k transfer. Love the channel man. Keep the awesome content coming!!
Make sure your "near dark" blu ray still plays. This is one of those titles that almost all the blu ray disc have went bad over the years. If it still plays, sell it, a.s.a.p, this disc will go bad!
New sub! Just found your channel and you are great! I found Tomcats and Basketball Diaries (sealed) at a thrift for cheap. Basketball Diaries is really hard to find on bluray or dvd. Also Cruel Intentions is still hard to find. I've been trying to find that movie on bluray for awhile now.
@@thelastmoviestanding WoW! You are so lucky! Great score! Hey dude I have a question for you, I would like to start a CZcams channel kinda like yours but I want to showcase my video games, comic books, and now my movie collection. I just started collecting movies over the past year. Anyways any advice on how to make the videos look as good as yours? I don't know how to make intro videos. I really luv the esthetic of your videos. Just would like some advice.
God I hope Shout releases Power Rangers in 4k! 🙏🙏 Eight Days A Weeks in only on VHS & DVD, not even on laserdisc. I think it has an HD version on streaming (iTunes only). I hope Warner Archive releases this on Blu-ray.
Thanks for brining some light to these. Will have to try to keep an eye out for them. I ordered the Spike Lee set on eBay a year or two ago at least. Didn't read the description well enough and it just came with one of the films. Luckily realized it was on Disney Movie Club not much after and was pretty cheap $10 or less. I bought a couple copies and flipped one of them. Remember watching Tomcats back in the day. It's been a long time on that one. Have a Cruel Intentions DVD. Haven't watched that one in a long time either. Not familiar with Dangerous Beauty or Eight Days a Week. Got a good deal on Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers a year or two ago. Need to revisit. Didn't realize it was out of print. Have a Basketball Diaries DVD I think. Remember liking The Hitcher. Glad I stumbled upon your channel. Actually watched Part 2 first.
Thanks man! Yea Power Rangers is like $100 on eBay I think right now. Eight Days A Weeks I just discovered recently but if you love teen boy coming of age stories, this is a good one, Keri Russell 😍😍 Dangerous Beauty I would say depending on you taste in movies, its definitely for everyone, but I love it. Yea I paid too much for 25th Hour/He Got Game combo. I just saw the prices getting higher & higher & jumped do it because I don't see Disney re-releasing those anytime soon
@@thelastmoviestanding Like I mentioned. Used to see it consistently. Maybe that's why it was hard to find because the manufacturer of the movie sold all the copies to Dollarama Canada.
I’m not sure I’d do it again any time soon but the most I’ve paid for a single release is £70 for the BFI Flipside release of Joanna after discovering the label and buying every release thus far except this little known gem. At the time it seemed a bit over indulgent but the film is such a delight and it know fills that hole on the shelf amongst all its friends and family … … plus it goes without saying if you’ve not seen any of the films on the label then go check them out as there are some incredible films and true unsung gems on the list.
@@thelastmoviestanding They’ve released 47 films/documentaries/short film collections to date including the aforementioned Joanna alongside such gems as I Start Counting, The Appointment, Deep End, Psychomania, Symptoms, Man of Violence, The Bed Sitting Room and Full Circle and #48 due out in July with Remembrance from 1982 with Timothy Spall, John Altman and the legendary Gary Oldman in his first screen role. Each release comes with fascinating extras including new interviews, commentaries and various short films themed around each release (The latter, especially, is a fascinating addition that adds context to each film plus tosses in some quaint old short films and TV clips)
Most I've paid for a single film is $80. I purchased the VSU Beastmaster box set on eBay. Had to have all of them in the premium box. That being said I'll probably never watch Six String Samurai again.
yea I missed out on the boxset of Beastmaster, I just have the slipcover version. I really wanted that Showgirls box too but by the time I discovered VS it was overpriced on eBay.
I found Wing Commander in a local pawn shop for $3 along with one of those cool import crazy box sets of the Lover for $10... I luck out and find some gems in pawn shops
@@thelastmoviestanding I got Lisa Frankenstein for $3 at one recently ... but a lot of pawn shops are getting rid of media as well, I have one in my town that seems to want to keep getting them. I think one reason they are getting away from media is that the big box stores are and where will the shoplifters get their movies to sell to pawn shops now that Target and Best Buy are... I'm only kinda joking
When the video store Hastings was closing up all their locations, I stopped by mine and got a ton rare blu rays they had for rentals. Basketball Diaries, Scream 1.. I even had Stone Cold & Mr Nanny on dvd which are solid finds too.
I really appreciate that a man! Thank you. I need to Bloodsport. I honestly prefer 4K's that come with the Blu-rays more than movies that only come with just 4K because sometimes the blu-ray just looks better.
I PAID 30.00 for the the first DVD release of Barfly 1987. Then finally it was released on bluray in a nice boxset. 20 to 30 used is the most for me used.
Yeah never spent more then $25 for used movies. I rather hit up as many local stores, pawn shops, flea markets hell even garage sales to find those rare titles. I mean if i eventually run into it great but if not then i wont be losing sleep for it either. But to give you an example about a month ago i found Ray Harryhausen's 7th Voyage of Sinbad on bluray just winking at me at Amoeba Music. Its going for $100 right now on ebay but yeah I ceazed that moment in a heartbeat. A very unexpected pleasant surprise.
I have Fantastic Four (2015) on 4K I got it for 25 bucks and it's now $150 on eBay also I have Battle of the Five Armies in Blu-ray 3D the US version was very hard to find and I got it for $90 (I literally had to move heaven and earth to come up with the money)
I just upgraded all my Hobbits to Blu-ray. Not 3D though. I was looking for a specific packaging they were all in though to match, the hard slipcover 1
I have a ton of those Spanish blu rays in my cart on eBay but haven’t made a purchase yet. The artwork looks well done but the back statistics look bootlegesque I think k I’ll be getting a few soon because there are no blu rays for some of those movies yet so I’ll be taking a chance.
Still makes me angry that MMPR: The Movie goes for as much as it does. Considering there's a 4K master and Disney owns the rights to Fox's library, it makes sense to release it on 4K or at the very least, re-release it on Blu-ray. What, does Disney all of a sudden hate money because they have so much?
great channel, I found that Hitcher on regular DVD yesterday at a vintage shop I frequent, going to go back tomorrow and pick it up if its still there, not sure if the basic DVD version is rare or not but want it anyway
Thanks man! I don't think the DVD is that rare but the DVD has all the great special features, the blu-ray is just the film. I'm definitely keeping my DVD with it.
I found some them online & am waiting to hear back from the guy who made it on how much for a digital download. the site I found it on wont let you do it directly. As soon as I hear something I will message you back
I set myself a strict set of rules when it comes to oop $50 or under is still viable if it's $60 and above it's a no go. I'll find the movie on another format or find a different region of the film.
nice! I just picked up Bowfinger yesterday on Bluray for $6 which is OOP & this morning ordered a German Blu-ray of Volcano from 1997 with Tommy Lee Jones that I'm stoked about. I think it has a lenticular slipcover.
I did the same bro lol there was a period between 2017-2020 I slowed down a lot & was just buying video equipment 😂 now this is all I buy for myself haha
I paid $90 each for the blu-rays of David Lynch's Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me and The Straight Story from Japan, way back in the early days of blu-ray before either had a release in any other country. That's the most I've ever paid for a single film.
I spend (I think) around $70 on the Thomas Jane movie Thursday from 1998. The DVD lol German import. this was easy back in like 2008 or something, The DVD had never come to the states & Kino just released it on Bluray a few years ago lol, but at the time like 15years ago. it was super hard to find. So I feel you! hahaha
I spend retail for a single movie, $35-$40 if it’s a limited steelbook release. If I miss a BD & it’s OOP & overpriced I just go for the DVD if I wanna see it.
I recently paid $AU70 for a blu-ray copy of The Stuntman (1979) a remastered copy from Severin. Been looking for it for a long time as it's oop and going for $150 online - probably the most I've paid for an oop title... Cruel Intentions isn't hard to find in Australia - there are several copies on eBay Aus going for under $20 Also a couple of Australian copies of The Hitcher there for under $30
Oh basketball diaries a very uplifting heartwarming movie. When your done watching it you will feel like you need to take a bath. Wish I had a blu ray copy honestly but I'm not ready to dish out 30 bucks for it.
I’ve paid $50 bucks several times for a more rare movie. I bought Twister on HD DVD for $50 a few months back. It was one of the last movies released on the format.
I watched the premiere of the pilot episode for Power Rangers in 1993 before I went to a birthday party at a Burger King (or McDonald's?) that same day.
I actually bought the Power Rangers movies before they went out of print. The first movie I bought it off Shout Factory and the sequel I bought it off Barnes and Noble. I believe I bought both movies last year when I saw that both were going out of print because of Fox is under Disney.
yea I got Power Rangers about a year ago for $20 New, right before I jumped up in price everywhere. I missed getting Turbo, that movie on bluray is super expensive right now lol
Forget blu ray for a moment. I paid 75 bucks for a standard DVD of War of the Gargantuas/Rodan (which I had previously but sold). I still find it to be the best pq even over blu ray versions. Nice packaging as well.
Luckily for me, for the bulk of the years that Blu-ray was available I was always in on the ground floor. Most of the titles I attained are movies that I wanted for me and not for value. However, there are literally only two titles I ponied up the dough for and they were both Airheads and Freaked. Both of them had fallen out of print and a seller in a cult movie Facebook group was selling them both at the same time. I was able to get that person to sell both of them to me for $60 shipped. For what they go for now, I definitely made a good deal. That being said, probably the most expensive single Blu-ray in my collection is Hellraiser: Deader. I was fortunate enough to buy that right before it went out of print from the long gone Fry’s department store for a whopping $5.
Yea Airheads is sooooo high right now it's ridiculous. Bad Girls from 1994 is also overpriced, Newton Boys, Dogma, Can't Hardly Wait... all on my wishlist
@@thelastmoviestanding Dogma I bought used for about $15 right when it came out and I still have it. Some of those Fox/Anchor Bay Blu-rays are really hard to find as well. I’m fortunate enough to have The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, License to Drive and Dutch. Bought all of those right when they came out. The prices on them now are insane.
@@johnf198207 I really want Ford Fairline on Blu. They have a Spanish version but I don't trust it. Im trying to get the Germany import but it also hard to find, but cheaper than the US bluray. Anchor Bay has a lot of great OOP titles. I just bought Bowfinger on Bluray for $6 at the thrift shop. It's like $50-$60 online.
@@thelastmoviestanding oh damn, I got Bowfinger when it was a Best Buy exclusive. I think I paid less than $10 for it. Back when Best Buy sold Blu-rays, Universal had a little deal with them and they released a bunch of exclusive titles. I remember getting Bowfinger, Baseketball, For Love of the Game, EdTV, The Babe and Problem Child for about $10 a pop.
Surprised 28 Days/Weeks Later didn't make this list. There seem to be a lot of mid-2000s Fox movies that are really, really hard to get on Blu-ray (The Ringer and My Super Ex-Girlfriend come to mind)
New subscriber here, you seem like a cool fellow 'millennial' collector guy I could be friends with. 😁 Basketball Diaries had a great Korean BD release in 2016 from Kimchidvd, in a clear Scanavo case with a Fullslip and 24p booklet, got it for just $29 then. I don't have Tomcats though, didn't order it at the time somehow... There's another rarity that I do have, if you make more videos like this, Bedazzled with Brendan Fraser and amazing Elizabeth Hurley - discovered recently it's also around $150... 😂 The Beach was released on one of those kinda bootleg Blu-rays in Spain by a company called Resen. They have many such nowhere else in the world BDs, transfers are not great, but still better than DVD, they're usually HDTV scans or those copies that are used for streaming or sale as a digital copy. But at least they're on factory pressed discs, not BD-Rs like Chinese crap on eBay. Got a few films like that, Extreme Measures, Murder by Numbers, Murder at 1600, Addicted to Love (one of my All-time favorite comedies), Wag the Dog, etc. Was about to buy Phantoms ("Affleck was da bomb in it" 😂), but Shout Factory announced a UHD! Their True Lies from D-VHS is now the best version, after what Cameron done to it - I was waiting for the official release for 10 years, only to end up buying that bootleg available since 2014. 🤦
Thanks man!! Yea Bazzaled is super hard to find, but I honestly don't remember if I liked that movie haha its been sooo long since ive seen it. I have the Beach on DVD & don't really trust Spain releases lol im convinced they are all Bootlegs, but I haven't tried yet, they might be pretty good quality. I almost got the Murder At 1600 Bluray from Spain but feel Warner is going to surprise release it any day lol I also almost got the Spanish Volcano Bluray but found a legit copy from Germany that I just got in. Dope packaging too.
I dont have q Blu-ray player yet, but have been buying DVDs. Went to an estate sale that had over 300 DVDs and VHS. Bought around 40 movies. A lot from the 80s, some hard to find, complete sets, and a few obscure movies. Yard, garage, and estate sales are good places to look for movies.
@@thelastmoviestanding One movie I wish they'd re-release , but with the original cover is the 1986 Trick or Treat. Putting Gene Simmons and Ozzy on the cover to sell more copies kinda ruined it.
@@steelandtreeE407 they are man! its coming out on 4k this year. just announced like last week. Check out Born2BeRad's channel, he made a video about it
Theres a 75 year old woman in my city in NZ who has about 20,000 dvds for sale, they filled up half her house and shes now parting with the lot, Ive been going every sunday for about 3 months, theres usually only a few others collectors there, fill up a box for NZD $100 and you can fit 150 dvds into a box, its been like christmas for me, I've found some real gems, like cannibal holocaust, salo, the dreamers, the night porter, 9 1/2 weeks, the mosquito coast, poison ivy, to live and die in LA, two days in the valley etc just to name a few, in pristine condition and works out to about 70 cents a pop, my sunday mornings have been epic and so far i reckon i've taken added about 1500 to my collection.
Dude I'm getting great recommendations from you . I just bought tomcats on DVD for 6:15 on ebay. With taxes and shipping. Id snag it for 10. But I'm not going to pay a lot for a movie when it's on DVD. I started out with DVDs. I reserve Blu-rays and 4k's for movies that I'm going to take advantage of the sound of grade or all-time classics. I've actually become more fond of DVDs recently. Especially special editions.
I really glad to hear that bro! my goal for this channel is not just talk about "new releases" or "boutique" stuff. So many great older movies. to be honestly I was still buying DVDs exclusively til about a year or 2 ago. Ive had Blu-Rays of course but format didn't matter to me. I got to the point where I feel I own most everything I want to own, only thing to do now is upgrade & I discovered a lot of these blurays are harder to find than you would think. DVDs still have the best menus & disc art & special features. I keep a lot of my DVDs with my blurays because of the special features. Some blurays are just barebone.
@@thelastmoviestanding dude I'm there with you I only collected DVDs $2 a piece. Then I realize how much better the audio is on Blu-ray and sometimes picture. Started upgrading. Then got exited about getting classics on 4k once I got a 4K TV with Dolby Vision and digital Atmos. I'm still rocking my Sony 5.1 surround I got 150 bucks used. Did I keep DVDs if there's different artwork for favorites. Some movies I didn't upgrade to Blu-ray because there was a period where they did not put the director's cut on Blu-ray. If I really like the film I keep the Blu-ray with the 4K specially if it doesn't come with one and then if one goes up in value I could sell. Sometimes I'll sell the Blu-ray to pay for the 4K it comes with the Blu-ray. Honestly I'm kind of tired of upgrading unless it's something special I've hoped for.
Crazy EBAY prices is not an indication of the value of anything, it is just random people thinking they are the owners of gold. It is like ticket scalpers, dont buy what they are trying to sell then it stops.
yea, scalpers on ebay are bad. I know 1 movie i'll be making a video about soon that is so rare on blu-ray that there is only 1 "used" copy online for $500 🤦♂Funny thing is the movie is supposed to be getting a re-lease on blu-ray this month 😂for like $25
@@thelastmoviestandingI bought Breaking Away bluray in a Twilight Time sale a few years ago for about $20. Crazy the price that it supposedly sells for now.
@@dishsoap1 and if it gets another release surely it's value will be gone. Is there a market for 1st edition blurays? I don't think so. I understand if it is a limited edition with figurines or card and posters but not just a disc in a case.
I have a copy of 13th floor on Blu-ray. Matrix type movie. Its a test pressing Australian version. Not sure how rare but never seen it around here before.
Oh I know it! As soon as I saw Dogma on the spine I grabbed it so fast you'd think I was trying to grab a grasshopper out of some old Chinese guys hand. 😂
@@thelastmoviestanding Interesting. I probably won't sell it as I like the movie. I mainly got it because it was $20 when I was building my collection and I remember having it on VHS a long time ago. I was a Power Rangers kid back in the day. I also have the original series on DVD from Shout.
@@stonesfan285 same! I got it for $20 & mostly for nostalgic reasons, took me a while to rewatch it but when I did I forgot how fun it was, bad movie, but fun lol
@@thelastmoviestanding I only saw one option on eBay with the slip and it was listed for $144.00. I am betting I could get $200 easily for this as it is in mint condition with the slipcover.
Some interesting movies. Bought Tomcats at Blockbuster back in the day on a lark and loved it. DOA is dumb fun. Just watched Eight Days A Week. Not bad.
Dude with these movies going out of print I'll just get the DVD. Unless the DVDs high dollar. And I'll probably just hope for a re-release. There was a DVD that I wanted that went completely out of print can't find anywhere so that's one of the few movies I've actually bought digitally. I'm getting some good recommendations from you. Because I miss the old comedies
Thanks man! DVD is still a great format! I still have more DVDs than I do Blu-Rays. 1990-2010 is my favorite era or movies. What DVD were you looking for that is out of print?
@@thelastmoviestanding it's silly. I have every movie that Robert bronzi has stared in( he's Charles Bronson's look like and He's a fan too) His movies are totally be movies but they're fun to me. The DVD is called Cry Havoc. I can't find it anywhere. I know it has a release here. It's the fourth movie in the playing with dolls series by Rene Perez. Part 2 is the best one. Part 3 sucks. Part 4=Cry Havoc is cool because is got Bronzi.
@@MediaFeverPitch 🤣🤣🤣 You have very unique taste my friend lol. ive never heard of any of those hahaha I have little silly niches too. I have this American Pie franchise cork im trying to finish, meaning getting every copy of every version I can. BluRay: Rated & Unrated DVD: Widescreen & Full Screen VHS: Regular &. Special Editions 😂🤦♂🥧
I think any film thats a raunchy comedy (By todays standards) or has a theme thats not PC in 2024 will sadly have a high chance of being hard to aquire on physical media going forward.
Most I ever paid for a OOP was Dogma I paid $120 for it on bluray and unfortunately a few weeks later I found it for $60, same almost happened with the movie Supercross on bluray I found it for $199 and I'm like I like it but I decided to wait and a few months later I found it for $67 so I'm glad I waited but the current most expensive bluray I have bought I have yet to received and that was Shelby Oaks by Chris Stuckman I paid $175 just to get it signed
@thelastmoviestanding well the chris stuckman movie I got the bundle with the poster and shirt for $75 then I paid an additional $100 for him to sign it so wasn't a terrible choice for me that way but I also did it so it could help him yet to his goal because I did not expect it to blow up the way it did but even if I end up not liking the movie I'm gonna keep it for the history I have with it same with my copy of Deathgasm 2's Kickstart when they get to me whenever
@@DareDevil0504 I totally respect that though! as a filmmaker myself, I put my 1st feature on kickstarter but ended up self funding most of it anyways lol & im currently in post production on my 2nd feature & am debating on doing a campaign to help get funds to finish the music which is so expensive 😭
I missed out on the Power Rangers movie when Shout dropped it to like $14, it sold out before I could grab it. I will check out that DOA film, known of it but kept forgetting about it, never seen it but I like the Mortal Kombats and Roberts. I see the Dangerous Beauty DVD is cheap, I like the woman from Bravehear though not big on period pieces, if there's action might check it out.
yea I grabbed Power Rangers new for $20 right before it sold out everywhere, I was just randomly looking in the kids movie section 1 day & boom lol Dangerous Beauty is very much more on the "love story" side of films than action lol Shakespeare In Love has more action in it haha
EightvDays A Week is on Prime in HD. I know we want physical copies. But $50 on dvd when you can see it for free in HD is crazy! I may burn it to dvd with my recorder because I do remember liking the movie. But no way for $50
lol yea I know. I just don't really watch digital anymore, not even the digital codes I get anymore. $40 on a dvd is definitely expensive, so when I found it for $10 at a thrift store I bought that copy too in hopes of selling my $40 copy to try & get some money back hahah The dvd is still great quality though. & I'll pay that any day to own it forever instead of risking it getting taking off digital or censored in some way in the future you know.
Yeah I get it. That’s why I record a lot of stuff onto dvd with a dvd burner if it seems it will leave streaming. Unfortunately can’t afford every movie. Especially the hard to find ones! Good video, worth a subscribe!
DOA is a little overpriced when you can find it. Jon Tucker DONT BUY the blu-ray. I made a whole video on it. There is something wrong with the US blu-rays. either way the John Tucker Blu-ray is also super expensive
@@ferntin4479 its getting a 4k? that's news to me lol I only got the Blu-ray cause, at the time, its was starting to become really overpriced & I found 1 for a reasonable price.
piece of advice. if your see a movie that been re-issued again. better GET THEM FAST. DON'T WAIT A YEAR OR TWO to want to get them. I made this mistake a few times when I lost an oppertunity to get 2 films I wanted get on blu ray real bad. Invasion USA My Science Project if you do miss out. it will be a long while for another distributer will pick up the license.
@@thelastmoviestanding I manage to get heavenly kid that came out last year and I figure I get it before the license expires. I was so pissed that new reissue of my science project wasn't being available again. such BS. Invasion USA is a same deal. Kino Larbo had some good stuff but when come and go every few years. they usually last for 2 or 3 years before the distribution deal runs out. boutique dvd/blu ray company like arrow, Kino Larbo, Mill Creek, and etc. have a short lifespan many movies then it changes hands after a couple or so.
I try not to although I paid 50 for the twilight time Fright Night way before the 4k got announced and not a steelbook collector so glad I did. I always wanted Cat Ballou it only ever had a Twilight Time Release and I settled for the cheap DVD and it just went up for 4k preorders. It really is just a waiting game and I suggest movie collectors look for other formats my VHS still look great on my crt. I’m working on a similar video with way different movies. I understand the so bad it’s good but I hate the statement a movie is supposed to entertain if it does that then it can it really be bad? Great video brother 👍
Thanks man! Ive actually never heard of Twilight Time Release, did they go out of business or just a small label? I'll have to looking them. I agree with looking for other formats & your VHS video you just dropped was really dope, that's a huge VHS collection lol mine is only bout 1/4 of that lol. I also have a similar video coming out soon about my VHS collection but it's taking a bit longer than expected to put together lol I love "so bad they're good movies" haha I use the CLZ app to manage my collection & it has statistic charts that show me I own more 6/10 rated movies than anything else. I hate term "Guilty Pleasure" when it comes to movies. most all "bad" movies I like, I genuinely like them & don't feel guilty about it 😂
@@thelastmoviestandingYes unfortunately Twilight Time went out of business right at the beginning of the pandemic they had no social media presence and I only found them because they are the only ones to ever release How to Steal A Million and Blue Lagoon on Blu-ray. Since then some of their OOP titles have been put out on kino and shout factory. I made a video showing my whole collection plus a website that bought their remaining stock if interested. czcams.com/video/azwxef3mPOE/video.htmlsi=Juf2a7eUKREIrqwF Thanks for the feedback 98% of my VHS collection has been sourced from thrift stores I still have many dream list titles. Looking forward to seeing your collection.
I usually go to the Movie Trading Companies in Arlington and Hurst I feel like they have a good selection, I bought He Got Game for sale last week digitally for 5 bucks but I would love to have that double blu-Ray of He Got Game and 25th Hour, I love both of those movies
There are quite a few that I would love to get on blu. Ray that are next to impossible to find. However, I have been finding those ones on regular DVD n at least I can watch it at that point. I have resolved to a couple of bootlegs that companies have and I must say hey, look amazing, modern problems and 9 to 5 Both fox titles and as you said, I can never be assured that they will be realBoth fox titles, and as you said, I can never be assured that they will be re. Released.
Ray? with Jamie Foxx? its on amazon for like $11. Yea 9 to 5 needs a released pretty bad, it was only limit to 2000 copies when it cam out on bluray, that's dumb!
lmao not going to lie you might be right, plus I drove 45min there & back to get it, but it was so worth it cause it's really hard to find online & when it is, people are charging over $100 for it 🤯 Cruel Intentions needs a 4k. i'm really surprised it's becoming OOP.
I thought Cruel Intentions was easy to find in got this one sent by mistake (from the UK) and i got a different version so its legit just sitting in my collection
I hate to say it but people need to stop. That Motocross movie is not worth $80 just because it's rare. I understand if it's Near dark or a classic that's out of print. And I don't recommend people pay those prices because eventually they're going to have to drop the price or just hold on to it forever. Just put it in your watch list.
Happy I found this channel. Very well spoken and a simple one take pretty much conversation about amazing topics. Keep it up
thank you for the kind words! ☺I actually stutter a lot in my personal life lol doing CZcams & talking about my collection & movies has really helped with my speaking.
@@thelastmoviestanding you have a very calm and inviting channel. You're up against everyone and their mom doing what you're doing but you're handing out great info in a way that I would be hanging out with a friend. Keep it up, an easy subscribe
I didn't notice any stutter at all! Keep up the good work, my friend!
@@rajramnarine123 thanks man! I notice it a lot haha i noticed the more passionate I am about something I less I stutter 🤷🏼♂️
One movie by itself $25 is my maximum and it would have to be something I really wanted to own.
As a physical media collector since around 1990, it is the topic I watch the most about on CZcams. I have a few favs like Heath@Cereal at Midnight, Jeff Rauseo, John@LetsTalk & MidLevelMedia. I just discovered your videos yesterday and I'm adding you to my list of favs. Earnest conversation, physical media topics I care about, and sincerity I very much appreciate. Kudos, keep up the great work.
I really appreciate that! truly, that mean a lot to me 🙂
@@thelastmoviestanding I kept mine and I just got my super betamax deck fixed after years of being broken along with my dvhs vcr. I have frozen and the incredibles 2 on bluray 3d those might be rare but im not sure.
Love finding new channels that are high quality all around. Thanks for the great content and please keep it coming!
I really appreciate it man! 😁
When I knew MMPR: The Movie was going out of print, I kind of ignored it. Then about 6 months later, I got a real hankering to watch it, so I started looking on ebay or various sites, and it was like $75 or so.
I then realized that I already had it, it came included in the Power Rangers Steelbook set as a bonus disk. I was happy to have found this out.
The Hitcher has a 4K limited/standard release from Second Sight coming in Sept 2024.
I paid $150 for a blu ray copy of bedazzeled ..... but thats the only 1 I paid that price for because I really enjoyed that movie growing up
@@mannyva01 damn! Power to you man! Mad respect lol I havnt spent that much on a movie yet but have come very very close
@@thelastmoviestanding I have the orginal DVD..... the dvd was good.... but the blu ray upgrade was well worth the price..... and so much more vibrant..... I could justify the cost but that is the only movie that will get that treatment..... its was a nostalgia purchase for me when I was in war in 01-04 between Afghanistan and Iraq.... that when the movie was released.... brought back a ton of memories both good and bad
Just spent $50 for an import copy of Hard Boiled as it’s out of print. Should have bought the Criterion version when I had the opportunity.
yea I missed Hard Boiled on Bluray. I just found out recently it was out of print.
I've had that Tomcats foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Cool video and concept! Just found your channel, Cheers!
thanks man!! lol I love tomcats!
D.O.A. Is a movie I’ve always seen the poster for but never realized one of my favorite Hong Kong directors directed it. He directed a fair share of awesome Hong Kong action films!
Dude! DOA is great! lol its shot so good & has so much style. Corny & dated but still so fun.
I wonder what the state of blu ray collecting will be like 10 years from now when almost everything not released on 4K will be out of print and rare. We've seen many titles not make the jump from VHS to DVD or DVD to Blu Ray. In the case of 4K, I bet it will be hundreds, if not thousands of titles that don't make the jump considering the cost of restoring titles for a higher definition format and the more limited demand. I imagine most will begrudgingly adopt digital at some point. At the end of day, film is about enjoying the movies without having to spend a fortune on limited edition packaging. It's also more difficult to justify paying exorbitant prices on movies if they're not helping to subsidize the release of new titles.
I already have several dozen OOP titles but not knowing thier worth, threw out the packaging when I had to make a difficult move which would make them far less desirable.
Yes collectors have those OMG moments of overspending. I had a few when I was collecting Laser Discs, I found, Up The Creek, on laser disc and it hadn't had a DVD release yet, so I spent $110 on the laser disc.
wow! lol 🤯
I own that spike Lee vol 1. Since then that time I was hoping they would release a series of more volumes and it never did.
Got Near Dark on eBay for “like new” for $30 on eBay. I’ll never get rid of it unless a 4k release comes out on a 4k transfer. Love the channel man. Keep the awesome content coming!!
Thanks man!!
I love the movie and like the picture quality on my dvd.No need for an upgrade.
@@erikramaekers63 Yea I have no need to upgrade that either right now
Make sure your "near dark" blu ray still plays. This is one of those titles that almost all the blu ray disc have went bad over the years. If it still plays, sell it, a.s.a.p, this disc will go bad!
@@fearthejuggalo3722 oh wow thanks for the advice! I didn’t know that
Oops now I know why my bluray copy of Tomcars for $4 never showed up!
🤣
New sub! Just found your channel and you are great! I found Tomcats and Basketball Diaries (sealed) at a thrift for cheap. Basketball Diaries is really hard to find on bluray or dvd. Also Cruel Intentions is still hard to find. I've been trying to find that movie on bluray for awhile now.
Thanks Joey!! Ye ai JUST found Cruel Intention thrifting for $12, drove 45mins to grab it haha
@@thelastmoviestanding WoW! You are so lucky! Great score! Hey dude I have a question for you, I would like to start a CZcams channel kinda like yours but I want to showcase my video games, comic books, and now my movie collection. I just started collecting movies over the past year. Anyways any advice on how to make the videos look as good as yours? I don't know how to make intro videos. I really luv the esthetic of your videos. Just would like some advice.
Wish you had movie nights, I would love to come over and see the rare movies.😊
Eight Days A Week is on Warner Archive, I think.....and get set for Shout Factory to rerelease Mighty Morphin Power Rangers on 4K.
God I hope Shout releases Power Rangers in 4k! 🙏🙏
Eight Days A Weeks in only on VHS & DVD, not even on laserdisc. I think it has an HD version on streaming (iTunes only). I hope Warner Archive releases this on Blu-ray.
Thanks for brining some light to these. Will have to try to keep an eye out for them. I ordered the Spike Lee set on eBay a year or two ago at least. Didn't read the description well enough and it just came with one of the films. Luckily realized it was on Disney Movie Club not much after and was pretty cheap $10 or less. I bought a couple copies and flipped one of them. Remember watching Tomcats back in the day. It's been a long time on that one. Have a Cruel Intentions DVD. Haven't watched that one in a long time either. Not familiar with Dangerous Beauty or Eight Days a Week. Got a good deal on Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers a year or two ago. Need to revisit. Didn't realize it was out of print. Have a Basketball Diaries DVD I think. Remember liking The Hitcher. Glad I stumbled upon your channel. Actually watched Part 2 first.
Thanks man! Yea Power Rangers is like $100 on eBay I think right now. Eight Days A Weeks I just discovered recently but if you love teen boy coming of age stories, this is a good one, Keri Russell 😍😍
Dangerous Beauty I would say depending on you taste in movies, its definitely for everyone, but I love it. Yea I paid too much for 25th Hour/He Got Game combo. I just saw the prices getting higher & higher & jumped do it because I don't see Disney re-releasing those anytime soon
Glad this channel popped up in my CZcams suggestions!
appreciate the support man!
150.00 for Tomcats is absolutely ridiculous 😂
The most I ever paid for a OOP Bluray was the Anchor Bay Blu of Dawn of the Dead, I paid about 50 bucks
ABSOLUTELY Ridiculous! 🤣🤣 Yea Anchor Bay has a few blu-ray's I want that are getting tough & expensive to find.
I found The Beach dvd at a Goodwill and I snagged it immediately. It's on my list of movies to find.
I think I just got the beach about a year ago at a thrift store for $5, grabbed it right away too lol
Never knew Tomcats was uncommon because I used to consistently see it at various Dollarama stores throughout all of Canada for $2CAD.
bro it is SOOO hard to find here in the states. & online people are charging over $100 🤦♂
@@thelastmoviestanding Like I mentioned. Used to see it consistently. Maybe that's why it was hard to find because the manufacturer of the movie sold all the copies to Dollarama Canada.
Legit. "back in the day" Tomcats was an easy pick in the Walmart dump bin for $5.
I’m not sure I’d do it again any time soon but the most I’ve paid for a single release is £70 for the BFI Flipside release of Joanna after discovering the label and buying every release thus far except this little known gem. At the time it seemed a bit over indulgent but the film is such a delight and it know fills that hole on the shelf amongst all its friends and family …
… plus it goes without saying if you’ve not seen any of the films on the label then go check them out as there are some incredible films and true unsung gems on the list.
I’ve never heard of BFI Flipside but will definitely look into them! Thanks for the recommendation!
@@thelastmoviestanding They’ve released 47 films/documentaries/short film collections to date including the aforementioned Joanna alongside such gems as I Start Counting, The Appointment, Deep End, Psychomania, Symptoms, Man of Violence, The Bed Sitting Room and Full Circle and #48 due out in July with Remembrance from 1982 with Timothy Spall, John Altman and the legendary Gary Oldman in his first screen role. Each release comes with fascinating extras including new interviews, commentaries and various short films themed around each release (The latter, especially, is a fascinating addition that adds context to each film plus tosses in some quaint old short films and TV clips)
Solid video with some great info! I personally wouldn’t pay some of those crazy secondary market prices especially if it was a DVD or BD.
Most I've paid for a single film is $80. I purchased the VSU Beastmaster box set on eBay. Had to have all of them in the premium box. That being said I'll probably never watch Six String Samurai again.
yea I missed out on the boxset of Beastmaster, I just have the slipcover version. I really wanted that Showgirls box too but by the time I discovered VS it was overpriced on eBay.
I found Wing Commander in a local pawn shop for $3 along with one of those cool import crazy box sets of the Lover for $10... I luck out and find some gems in pawn shops
I need to start going to pawn shop! lol I never think about them when im out thrifting
@@thelastmoviestanding I got Lisa Frankenstein for $3 at one recently ... but a lot of pawn shops are getting rid of media as well, I have one in my town that seems to want to keep getting them. I think one reason they are getting away from media is that the big box stores are and where will the shoplifters get their movies to sell to pawn shops now that Target and Best Buy are... I'm only kinda joking
I had Basketball Diaries on VHS back in the day. Really good movie with Leo putting in an amazing performance.
yea I watched the trailer before buying & was like wow Leo! but definitely feel I have to be in the mood for this kind of movie lol seem very dark
When the video store Hastings was closing up all their locations, I stopped by mine and got a ton rare blu rays they had for rentals. Basketball Diaries, Scream 1.. I even had Stone Cold & Mr Nanny on dvd which are solid finds too.
I need to pick up Mr Nanny on DVD, its going to high DVD prices right now
Love the content, thanks for the insight from your findings!
£31 is the most I have spent. Bloodsport media book 4k & blu ray. I don't have 4k, got it for the blu ray.
Really enjoy your videos mate 👍
I really appreciate that a man! Thank you.
I need to Bloodsport. I honestly prefer 4K's that come with the Blu-rays more than movies that only come with just 4K because sometimes the blu-ray just looks better.
I PAID 30.00 for the the first DVD release of Barfly 1987. Then finally it was released on bluray in a nice boxset. 20 to 30 used is the most for me used.
Where’s the best place online to buy/sell Blu-ray’s and DVD’s?
Amazon? Ebay? those are where I find the most online
There really needs to be a Discogs style marketplace for dvds/blu rays
Yeah never spent more then $25 for used movies. I rather hit up as many local stores, pawn shops, flea markets hell even garage sales to find those rare titles. I mean if i eventually run into it great but if not then i wont be losing sleep for it either.
But to give you an example about a month ago i found Ray Harryhausen's 7th Voyage of Sinbad on bluray just winking at me at Amoeba Music. Its going for $100 right now on ebay but yeah I ceazed that moment in a heartbeat. A very unexpected pleasant surprise.
Those Fox blu rays are definitely in a rough spot as far as possible future releases go.
yea... Fox releases have quickly climbed the top of my must get list, especially before prices get worse
I have Fantastic Four (2015) on 4K I got it for 25 bucks and it's now $150 on eBay also I have Battle of the Five Armies in Blu-ray 3D the US version was very hard to find and I got it for $90 (I literally had to move heaven and earth to come up with the money)
I just upgraded all my Hobbits to Blu-ray. Not 3D though. I was looking for a specific packaging they were all in though to match, the hard slipcover 1
I have a ton of those Spanish blu rays in my cart on eBay but haven’t made a purchase yet. The artwork looks well done but the back statistics look bootlegesque I think k I’ll be getting a few soon because there are no blu rays for some of those movies yet so I’ll be taking a chance.
yea I haven't chanced the Spanish blu-rays yet, or Italian. I try to read forum comments on them 1st.
Love your channel. You have a new subscriber in me!
Thanks man!!!
Still makes me angry that MMPR: The Movie goes for as much as it does. Considering there's a 4K master and Disney owns the rights to Fox's library, it makes sense to release it on 4K or at the very least, re-release it on Blu-ray. What, does Disney all of a sudden hate money because they have so much?
yea its crazy how much gold Disney has hidden away. it's really a shame
great channel, I found that Hitcher on regular DVD yesterday at a vintage shop I frequent, going to go back tomorrow and pick it up if its still there, not sure if the basic DVD version is rare or not but want it anyway
Thanks man! I don't think the DVD is that rare but the DVD has all the great special features, the blu-ray is just the film. I'm definitely keeping my DVD with it.
Let me know if you find some custom artwork for 25th Hour and He Got Game. I own that double pack and was thinking about doing the same thing.
I found some them online & am waiting to hear back from the guy who made it on how much for a digital download. the site I found it on wont let you do it directly. As soon as I hear something I will message you back
Keri Russell and a sprinkler. Can't beat it.
You know exactly what I mean my man 😂👌
I know this movie😳
I set myself a strict set of rules when it comes to oop $50 or under is still viable if it's $60 and above it's a no go. I'll find the movie on another format or find a different region of the film.
im starting to become that way. if its over $50... I have to really do my research, a lot of pausing lol, & the film has to be 1 I really like
here’s a list of some of the OOP I have:
1. Black Xmas (2006)
2. Darkness Falls
3. The Hitcher (2007)
4. Peter Benchley’s Beast
5. Cruel Intentions
nice! I just picked up Bowfinger yesterday on Bluray for $6 which is OOP & this morning ordered a German Blu-ray of Volcano from 1997 with Tommy Lee Jones that I'm stoked about. I think it has a lenticular slipcover.
Some nice pickups, just jumped back into collecting 4k and blu rays dropped off for a while as got side tracked buying bbq equipment 😂
I did the same bro lol there was a period between 2017-2020 I slowed down a lot & was just buying video equipment 😂 now this is all I buy for myself haha
I paid $90 each for the blu-rays of David Lynch's Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me and The Straight Story from Japan, way back in the early days of blu-ray before either had a release in any other country. That's the most I've ever paid for a single film.
I spend (I think) around $70 on the Thomas Jane movie Thursday from 1998. The DVD lol German import. this was easy back in like 2008 or something, The DVD had never come to the states & Kino just released it on Bluray a few years ago lol, but at the time like 15years ago. it was super hard to find. So I feel you! hahaha
Dallas has a bunch of movie trading companies. I call weekly for availability of 4ks lol.
I live in Dallas lol I go to different 1s every week. Mostly Frisco & Lewisville
I spend retail for a single movie, $35-$40 if it’s a limited steelbook release. If I miss a BD & it’s OOP & overpriced I just go for the DVD if I wanna see it.
I recently paid $AU70 for a blu-ray copy of The Stuntman (1979) a remastered copy from Severin. Been looking for it for a long time as it's oop and going for $150 online - probably the most I've paid for an oop title...
Cruel Intentions isn't hard to find in Australia - there are several copies on eBay Aus going for under $20
Also a couple of Australian copies of The Hitcher there for under $30
Oh basketball diaries a very uplifting heartwarming movie. When your done watching it you will feel like you need to take a bath. Wish I had a blu ray copy honestly but I'm not ready to dish out 30 bucks for it.
🤣good to know haha
I’ve paid $50 bucks several times for a more rare movie. I bought Twister on HD DVD for $50 a few months back. It was one of the last movies released on the format.
im like that too with VHS when it comes to the last year of the format, I spent $50 on a rare VHS released in 2006
I watched the premiere of the pilot episode for Power Rangers in 1993 before I went to a birthday party at a Burger King (or McDonald's?) that same day.
right on man!! yea I remember I went to a friends house down the street & it was like this big event to watch lol
Cruel Intentions is all the over eBay uk. Dirt cheap too.
I actually bought the Power Rangers movies before they went out of print. The first movie I bought it off Shout Factory and the sequel I bought it off Barnes and Noble. I believe I bought both movies last year when I saw that both were going out of print because of Fox is under Disney.
yea I got Power Rangers about a year ago for $20 New, right before I jumped up in price everywhere. I missed getting Turbo, that movie on bluray is super expensive right now lol
Forget blu ray for a moment. I paid 75 bucks for a standard DVD of War of the Gargantuas/Rodan (which I had previously but sold).
I still find it to be the best pq even over blu ray versions. Nice packaging as well.
you win my friend 🤣
@@thelastmoviestanding it’s still selling for that price on eBay, forget Amazon .
Luckily for me, for the bulk of the years that Blu-ray was available I was always in on the ground floor. Most of the titles I attained are movies that I wanted for me and not for value. However, there are literally only two titles I ponied up the dough for and they were both Airheads and Freaked. Both of them had fallen out of print and a seller in a cult movie Facebook group was selling them both at the same time. I was able to get that person to sell both of them to me for $60 shipped. For what they go for now, I definitely made a good deal. That being said, probably the most expensive single Blu-ray in my collection is Hellraiser: Deader. I was fortunate enough to buy that right before it went out of print from the long gone Fry’s department store for a whopping $5.
Yea Airheads is sooooo high right now it's ridiculous. Bad Girls from 1994 is also overpriced, Newton Boys, Dogma, Can't Hardly Wait... all on my wishlist
@@thelastmoviestanding Dogma I bought used for about $15 right when it came out and I still have it. Some of those Fox/Anchor Bay Blu-rays are really hard to find as well. I’m fortunate enough to have The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, License to Drive and Dutch. Bought all of those right when they came out. The prices on them now are insane.
@@johnf198207 I really want Ford Fairline on Blu. They have a Spanish version but I don't trust it. Im trying to get the Germany import but it also hard to find, but cheaper than the US bluray.
Anchor Bay has a lot of great OOP titles.
I just bought Bowfinger on Bluray for $6 at the thrift shop. It's like $50-$60 online.
@@thelastmoviestanding oh damn, I got Bowfinger when it was a Best Buy exclusive. I think I paid less than $10 for it. Back when Best Buy sold Blu-rays, Universal had a little deal with them and they released a bunch of exclusive titles. I remember getting Bowfinger, Baseketball, For Love of the Game, EdTV, The Babe and Problem Child for about $10 a pop.
Surprised 28 Days/Weeks Later didn't make this list. There seem to be a lot of mid-2000s Fox movies that are really, really hard to get on Blu-ray (The Ringer and My Super Ex-Girlfriend come to mind)
there's a part 2 coming & a few of these are on it
@@thelastmoviestanding thanks was wondering
Texas chainsaw massacre the beginning is also a super expensive blu ray most new line cinema pre Warner bros are expensive

Basketball Diaries had a great Korean BD release in 2016 from Kimchidvd, in a clear Scanavo case with a Fullslip and 24p booklet, got it for just $29 then.
I don't have Tomcats though, didn't order it at the time somehow...
There's another rarity that I do have, if you make more videos like this, Bedazzled with Brendan Fraser and amazing Elizabeth Hurley - discovered recently it's also around $150... 😂
The Beach was released on one of those kinda bootleg Blu-rays in Spain by a company called Resen. They have many such nowhere else in the world BDs, transfers are not great, but still better than DVD, they're usually HDTV scans or those copies that are used for streaming or sale as a digital copy. But at least they're on factory pressed discs, not BD-Rs like Chinese crap on eBay.
Got a few films like that, Extreme Measures, Murder by Numbers, Murder at 1600, Addicted to Love (one of my All-time favorite comedies), Wag the Dog, etc.
Was about to buy Phantoms ("Affleck was da bomb in it" 😂), but Shout Factory announced a UHD!
Their True Lies from D-VHS is now the best version, after what Cameron done to it - I was waiting for the official release for 10 years, only to end up buying that bootleg available since 2014. 🤦
Thanks man!! Yea Bazzaled is super hard to find, but I honestly don't remember if I liked that movie haha its been sooo long since ive seen it. I have the Beach on DVD & don't really trust Spain releases lol im convinced they are all Bootlegs, but I haven't tried yet, they might be pretty good quality. I almost got the Murder At 1600 Bluray from Spain but feel Warner is going to surprise release it any day lol I also almost got the Spanish Volcano Bluray but found a legit copy from Germany that I just got in. Dope packaging too.

Dude I'm getting great recommendations from you . I just bought tomcats on DVD for 6:15 on ebay. With taxes and shipping.
Id snag it for 10.
But I'm not going to pay a lot for a movie when it's on DVD.
I started out with DVDs.
I reserve Blu-rays and 4k's for movies that I'm going to take advantage of the sound of grade or all-time classics.
I've actually become more fond of DVDs recently. Especially special editions.
I really glad to hear that bro! my goal for this channel is not just talk about "new releases" or "boutique" stuff. So many great older movies.
to be honestly I was still buying DVDs exclusively til about a year or 2 ago. Ive had Blu-Rays of course but format didn't matter to me. I got to the point where I feel I own most everything I want to own, only thing to do now is upgrade & I discovered a lot of these blurays are harder to find than you would think.
DVDs still have the best menus & disc art & special features. I keep a lot of my DVDs with my blurays because of the special features. Some blurays are just barebone.
@@thelastmoviestanding dude I'm there with you I only collected DVDs $2 a piece.
Then I realize how much better the audio is on Blu-ray and sometimes picture.
Started upgrading. Then got exited about getting classics on 4k once I got a 4K TV with Dolby Vision and digital Atmos. I'm still rocking my Sony 5.1 surround I got 150 bucks used. Did I keep DVDs if there's different artwork for favorites. Some movies I didn't upgrade to Blu-ray because there was a period where they did not put the director's cut on Blu-ray. If I really like the film I keep the Blu-ray with the 4K specially if it doesn't come with one and then if one goes up in value I could sell. Sometimes I'll sell the Blu-ray to pay for the 4K it comes with the Blu-ray. Honestly I'm kind of tired of upgrading unless it's something special I've hoped for.

Crazy EBAY prices is not an indication of the value of anything, it is just random people thinking they are the owners of gold. It is like ticket scalpers, dont buy what they are trying to sell then it stops.

Is there a market for 1st edition blurays? I don't think so.
I understand if it is a limited edition with figurines or card and posters but not just a disc in a case.
Most I'd spend on a bluray is 50 bucks for a new copy, 20 for a used.
For a dvd 20 bucks
For a vhs 5 bucks

@@thelastmoviestanding Interesting. I probably won't sell it as I like the movie. I mainly got it because it was $20 when I was building my collection and I remember having it on VHS a long time ago. I was a Power Rangers kid back in the day. I also have the original series on DVD from Shout.
@@stonesfan285 same! I got it for $20 & mostly for nostalgic reasons, took me a while to rewatch it but when I did I forgot how fun it was, bad movie, but fun lol
@@thelastmoviestanding I only saw one option on eBay with the slip and it was listed for $144.00. I am betting I could get $200 easily for this as it is in mint condition with the slipcover.
On a single disc blu rat no more then 30 after tax and delivery if ordered online, cause I'm not a idiot
Most I ever paid for a oop bluray was $20 for a oop dogma sealed
$20? wow!! great find!
Some interesting movies. Bought Tomcats at Blockbuster back in the day on a lark and loved it. DOA is dumb fun. Just watched Eight Days A Week. Not bad.
Yea I think got my tomcats on DVD at blockbuster too. I wish Buying The Cow was on Blu-ray.
I bought a lot of movies at Blockbuster when they marked them down and they turned out to be good movies. Lonestar State of Mind, Stardust, Tomcats.
@@50TBRD same! I lived at the 2 for $20 & 4 for $20 sections at blockbuster lol
4/20 sounds like my speed.
DOA is so good. You should check out the director’s Hong Kong movies like So Close or Righting Wrongs and also Yes Madam
Thanks for the recommendations! Ive never heard of any of these but just watched the trailer for So Close & will definitely be checking that out soon!
I found a copy of cruel intentions for a buck in my local shop. Wow didnt know it costs that much
jacket pot Main!!!
Dude with these movies going out of print I'll just get the DVD. Unless the DVDs high dollar. And I'll probably just hope for a re-release.
There was a DVD that I wanted that went completely out of print can't find anywhere so that's one of the few movies I've actually bought digitally. I'm getting some good recommendations from you. Because I miss the old comedies
Thanks man! DVD is still a great format! I still have more DVDs than I do Blu-Rays. 1990-2010 is my favorite era or movies.
What DVD were you looking for that is out of print?
@@thelastmoviestanding it's silly.
I have every movie that Robert bronzi has stared in( he's Charles Bronson's look like and He's a fan too)
His movies are totally be movies but they're fun to me.
The DVD is called Cry Havoc.
I can't find it anywhere. I know it has a release here.
It's the fourth movie in the playing with dolls series by Rene Perez. Part 2 is the best one. Part 3 sucks.
Part 4=Cry Havoc is cool because is got Bronzi.
@@MediaFeverPitch 🤣🤣🤣 You have very unique taste my friend lol. ive never heard of any of those hahaha
I have little silly niches too. I have this American Pie franchise cork im trying to finish, meaning getting every copy of every version I can.
BluRay: Rated & Unrated
DVD: Widescreen & Full Screen
VHS: Regular &. Special Editions
😂🤦♂🥧
I think any film thats a raunchy comedy (By todays standards) or has a theme thats not PC in 2024 will sadly have a high chance of being hard to aquire on physical media going forward.
Sadly I totally agree
JDF (The Green Ranger) dying, definitely helped MMPR go OOP a lot quicker I think.
dude you aint lying! so much Green PR stuff I wanted that skyrocketed in price.
I found sling blade at the flea market and bundle it with 2 other blurays for 10 bucks . Guy didnt know sling blade is out of print
NICE find! yea I just found out recently it was OOP
Most I ever paid for a OOP was Dogma I paid $120 for it on bluray and unfortunately a few weeks later I found it for $60, same almost happened with the movie Supercross on bluray I found it for $199 and I'm like I like it but I decided to wait and a few months later I found it for $67 so I'm glad I waited but the current most expensive bluray I have bought I have yet to received and that was Shelby Oaks by Chris Stuckman I paid $175 just to get it signed
you paid $175 & Chris Stuckmans movie? WOW! lol. Yea I would definitely not pay $199 for Supercross haha I paid $60 I think
@thelastmoviestanding well the chris stuckman movie I got the bundle with the poster and shirt for $75 then I paid an additional $100 for him to sign it so wasn't a terrible choice for me that way but I also did it so it could help him yet to his goal because I did not expect it to blow up the way it did but even if I end up not liking the movie I'm gonna keep it for the history I have with it same with my copy of Deathgasm 2's Kickstart when they get to me whenever
@@DareDevil0504 I totally respect that though! as a filmmaker myself, I put my 1st feature on kickstarter but ended up self funding most of it anyways lol & im currently in post production on my 2nd feature & am debating on doing a campaign to help get funds to finish the music which is so expensive 😭
I missed out on the Power Rangers movie when Shout dropped it to like $14, it sold out before I could grab it. I will check out that DOA film, known of it but kept forgetting about it, never seen it but I like the Mortal Kombats and Roberts. I see the Dangerous Beauty DVD is cheap, I like the woman from Bravehear though not big on period pieces, if there's action might check it out.
yea I grabbed Power Rangers new for $20 right before it sold out everywhere, I was just randomly looking in the kids movie section 1 day & boom lol
Dangerous Beauty is very much more on the "love story" side of films than action lol Shakespeare In Love has more action in it haha
I get all my blurays in CEX or I get the 2 for 20 euro deal in Golden Discs.
I wish we had a CEX here in the states
EightvDays A Week is on Prime in HD. I know we want physical copies. But $50 on dvd when you can see it for free in HD is crazy! I may burn it to dvd with my recorder because I do remember liking the movie. But no way for $50
lol yea I know. I just don't really watch digital anymore, not even the digital codes I get anymore.
$40 on a dvd is definitely expensive, so when I found it for $10 at a thrift store I bought that copy too in hopes of selling my $40 copy to try & get some money back hahah
The dvd is still great quality though. & I'll pay that any day to own it forever instead of risking it getting taking off digital or censored in some way in the future you know.
Yeah I get it. That’s why I record a lot of stuff onto dvd with a dvd burner if it seems it will leave streaming. Unfortunately can’t afford every movie. Especially the hard to find ones! Good video, worth a subscribe!
@@mrfloosak Thanks man!
Dead Alive and John Tucker Must Die seem like rare blu-rays.
DOA is a little overpriced when you can find it. Jon Tucker DONT BUY the blu-ray. I made a whole video on it. There is something wrong with the US blu-rays. either way the John Tucker Blu-ray is also super expensive
@@thelastmoviestanding I heard Dead Alive is getting a 4k you think its better to wait on the blu-ray?
@@ferntin4479 its getting a 4k? that's news to me lol I only got the Blu-ray cause, at the time, its was starting to become really overpriced & I found 1 for a reasonable price.
They got power rangers at my Walmart…. Now I need to buy it
do it! probably way cheaper than $100 on eBay lol
piece of advice. if your see a movie that been re-issued again. better GET THEM FAST. DON'T WAIT A YEAR OR TWO to want to get them. I made this mistake a few times when I lost an oppertunity to get 2 films I wanted get on blu ray real bad.
Invasion USA
My Science Project
if you do miss out. it will be a long while for another distributer will pick up the license.
yea im starting to just not wit anymore lol ive missed out on a few things I wanted before they got super expensive, some literally overnight
@@thelastmoviestanding I manage to get heavenly kid that came out last year and I figure I get it before the license expires. I was so pissed that new reissue of my science project wasn't being available again. such BS. Invasion USA is a same deal. Kino Larbo had some good stuff but when come and go every few years. they usually last for 2 or 3 years before the distribution deal runs out.
boutique dvd/blu ray company like arrow, Kino Larbo, Mill Creek, and etc. have a short lifespan many movies then it changes hands after a couple or so.
I try not to although I paid 50 for the twilight time Fright Night way before the 4k got announced and not a steelbook collector so glad I did. I always wanted Cat Ballou it only ever had a Twilight Time Release and I settled for the cheap DVD and it just went up for 4k preorders. It really is just a waiting game and I suggest movie collectors look for other formats my VHS still look great on my crt. I’m working on a similar video with way different movies. I understand the so bad it’s good but I hate the statement a movie is supposed to entertain if it does that then it can it really be bad? Great video brother 👍
Thanks man! Ive actually never heard of Twilight Time Release, did they go out of business or just a small label? I'll have to looking them.
I agree with looking for other formats & your VHS video you just dropped was really dope, that's a huge VHS collection lol mine is only bout 1/4 of that lol. I also have a similar video coming out soon about my VHS collection but it's taking a bit longer than expected to put together lol
I love "so bad they're good movies" haha I use the CLZ app to manage my collection & it has statistic charts that show me I own more 6/10 rated movies than anything else. I hate term "Guilty Pleasure" when it comes to movies. most all "bad" movies I like, I genuinely like them & don't feel guilty about it 😂
@@thelastmoviestandingYes unfortunately Twilight Time went out of business right at the beginning of the pandemic they had no social media presence and I only found them because they are the only ones to ever release How to Steal A Million and Blue Lagoon on Blu-ray. Since then some of their OOP titles have been put out on kino and shout factory. I made a video showing my whole collection plus a website that bought their remaining stock if interested. czcams.com/video/azwxef3mPOE/video.htmlsi=Juf2a7eUKREIrqwF
Thanks for the feedback 98% of my VHS collection has been sourced from thrift stores I still have many dream list titles. Looking forward to seeing your collection.
I usually go to the Movie Trading Companies in Arlington and Hurst I feel like they have a good selection, I bought He Got Game for sale last week digitally for 5 bucks but I would love to have that double blu-Ray of He Got Game and 25th Hour, I love both of those movies
I only go out that way when there are movies I can't find near me, Arlington is about 40mins away. I mostly go to Frisco & Lewisville locations.
I go to the Greenville location. About 10 min away.
@@AngelValdez-mr3fq that's my 3rd more frequent location, they have the biggest VHS selection of all the stores
@thelastmoviestanding Do you know of any other places to pick up 4ks around dallas. I go to Barnes and noble and half priced books as well.
@@AngelValdez-mr3fq I don’t actually & have been looking. I only really go MTC & HPB. I don’t like B&N
There are quite a few that I would love to get on blu. Ray that are next to impossible to find. However, I have been finding those ones on regular DVD n at least I can watch it at that point. I have resolved to a couple of bootlegs that companies have and I must say hey, look amazing, modern problems and 9 to 5 Both fox titles and as you said, I can never be assured that they will be realBoth fox titles, and as you said, I can never be assured that they will be re. Released.
Ray? with Jamie Foxx? its on amazon for like $11. Yea 9 to 5 needs a released pretty bad, it was only limit to 2000 copies when it cam out on bluray, that's dumb!
Nice video!
thanks man!
Wanted DOA on blu ray can't get in UK
its overpriced here in the states right now
of the ones you showed, I have... D.O.A , Eight Days a Week,
I would love to see Eight Days A Week get a bluray one day. Would most likely have to be a boutique, I don't see the studios doing it.
Honestly even asking $10 for Tomcats is overpriced. I’m also surprised Cruel Intentions hasn’t been reissued.
lmao not going to lie you might be right, plus I drove 45min there & back to get it, but it was so worth it cause it's really hard to find online & when it is, people are charging over $100 for it 🤯
Cruel Intentions needs a 4k. i'm really surprised it's becoming OOP.
The prisoner is redic on blue ray
I think I have a copy of tomcats
I do have the Hitcher
I thought Cruel Intentions was easy to find in got this one sent by mistake (from the UK) and i got a different version so its legit just sitting in my collection
it comes & goes here in the States, sometimes its in stock & others its $50 on eBay 🤦♂
I hate to say it but people need to stop.
That Motocross movie is not worth $80 just because it's rare.
I understand if it's Near dark or a classic that's out of print.
And I don't recommend people pay those prices because eventually they're going to have to drop the price or just hold on to it forever.
Just put it in your watch list.
I know... I really know hahah Supercross was totally not worth $60 but it was the cheapest I found it lol im ashamedddddddd!!! 🤣🤣
I think I'm seeing this video because I just bought that He got game and 25th hour double pack I paid 50 on ebay for a sealed copy
lol my condolences to your algorithm
