What's your next blind buy?

[Duck]

Saw a thread on Blu-ray.com like this and figured I would start one up here. Part of collecting movies is the joy of blind buying. I love picking up a new movie usually for cheap if I haven't seen it and going home and watching it for the first time. Next blind buy for me will be The Raid:Redemption. I have heard nothing but good things about it.

Melancholia. I've had a couple people tell me I'd like it.

 

[Duck]

I need to rent Melancholia first. I really think I would like it, but it just keeps giving me this feeling that I would regret buying it. I have heard good things about it.

Jaws. Its coming out on blu-ray soon and I hear its pretty good.

Same here It looks badass. Does the Dredd reboot borrow anything from this movie?

 

[The Ween]

The Hunger Games. Not sure if I'm going to spring for an exclusives though.

 

[Khev]

The Hunger Games.

You won't be disappointed.

 

[The Ween]

You won't be disappointed.

When people were first talking about this, I was kinda excited about it, then when it came out in the theater and people were talking about it, and it was everywhere, I got disinterested about it because it started sounding like another Twilight series. Too much giddiness or something. I got turned off and didn't go see it.

 

[Khev]

Yeah its like Twilight but with teenagers hacking each other up in a forest instead of falling in love.

 

[Duck]

I might possibly blind buy The Hunger Games as well. Depends if I have any spare cash this coming week. Least if I end up not liking it my gf has already seen it and I'll just give it to her.

I will NEVER Do This EVER Again.....

Maybe I chose the wrong movies to buy, maybe it was just bad luck,
but I will NEVER waste money on buying blind movies again lol

movies I got and completely regretted,
Ninja Assassin
I am Legend
Natural Born Killers
Jeepers Creepers 2
fantastic 4

movies I wanted to see, money I wasted, instead of Blind buying it should be called regret buying LOL

it happened with videogames too, and Music actually, Blind Buying for me is a nightmare now, I don't understand how i am the only one, what do you do if you hate the movie?

Well personally I do a lot of research before I blind buy. I usually only blind buy if I think I will really like it. Plus I usually don't get them at full price.

It gets flung on evilbay or traded in against next purchase.

Yeah but the PG-13ness ruins it. Book was a bit gorier but not by much.

Next one for me is chronicle.
