Title: Most DVDs of which director?
Post by: Spike on September 15, 2003, 04:25:56 PM
I didn't know where to post this thread - the "Director's Chair" or here, but I think it's more a DVD-topic.
So, of which directors do you have the most films on DVD?
Mine are:

Peter Jackson (8 )
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (theatrical cut)
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (extended edition)
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (theatrical cut)
The Frighteners
Heavenly Creatures
Braindead
Meet the Feebles
Bad Taste

David Fincher (4)
Panic Room
Fight Club (special-edition)
The Game
Se7en


P.S.: I got each film by Tim Burton on VHS.  :-D

Great question. Of the top of my head, I think Kurosawa, but I'll have to double-check when I get back to the ranch tonight.

Okay, I don't have Cape Fear, and I counted A Personal Journey, so which Scorsese do you have that I'm missing? The bunk version of Boxcar Bertha? Oh wait... probably the Goodfellas flip disc, right?

A Personal Journey...
Age Of Innocence
Boxcar Bertha
Bringing Out The Dead
Cape Fear
Casino
Color Of Money
Gangs Of New York
GoodFellas
King Of Comedy
Kundun
Last Temptation...
Last Waltz
Mean Streets
New York Stories (this is Scorsese's film 'cause it's the best of the three)
Taxi Driver

Title: Most DVDs of which director?
Post by: Ghostboy on September 17, 2003, 03:06:04 PM
Technically, I have six PTA DVDs also. His four features, plus Blossoms & Blood, plus the Academy Screener version of PDL. Would have seven if I hadn't unloaded the original Boogie Nights when the new one came out.

So I have all of his. Plus

2 Wes Anderson films
6 Coens
4 Kieslowski (or fourteen, if you count each of the Decalogues individually).
8 Kubrick
4 Lynch
3 Bunuel
8 Burton
2 Jarmusch

Eh, what's the point. I haven't yet managed to be a completist with anyone except those directors who've only done one or two movies, like Arronofsky or Vincent Gallo.
