Wednesday, January 26, 2005 The Pitch: It's like That Obscure Object of Desire meets Awful Skate (or, The Hobo on Rollers)! Inspired by Tim's DVD list, I took the time today to download that same software and index my own DVD collection. Tim's got fifty more movies than me, and infinitely better taste. I'm having fun comparing his collection to mine--how weird is it that we each only have one Lord of the Rings movie? He has The Thing and Assault on Precinct 13; I have Escape From New York and Dark Star; he has Blue Velvet and I have Mulholland Dr.; he's got Boogie Nights and I have Magnolia & Punch-Drunk Love. The collections seem to underline how similar and yet very, very different we are--the collections of two people doomed to agree generally and disagree specifically. (Or maybe not--I want Boogie Nights and blue Velvet and Assault on Precinct 13 as well...) Although looking at his collection makes me realize some of my films have been misplaced. I know we bought the same Aaronofsky two-pack so I should have a copy of Pi around here somewhere, for example...That's all. Nothing much more sophisticated to say than that. Out of the six used Bollywood movies I bought, only one doesn't seem to work with my DVD player. If I get a chance I'll test it on the PS2 and see if I have any better luck. Metal Gear Solid is kicking my ass. And my new monitor shows up tomorrow, which should allow me to take a huge step forward in transferring the rest of my old computer onto the new one. posted by Jeff Lester | 8:05 PM | |
