Title: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: The Burgomaster on May 19, 2003, 02:38:11 PM I haven't counted, so this is just a rough estimate of mine:
30% horror/sci-fi/suspense 30% action/western/war 20% drama 15% comedy 5% music/musicals Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: Sam on May 19, 2003, 02:44:51 PM 50% horror
30% action 10% comedy 10% music and misc. Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: The Burgomaster on May 19, 2003, 03:02:28 PM I'm waiting for someone to submit a list that doesn't add up to 100%.
If it adds up to more than 100%, it means the person made an adding mistake. If it adds up to less than 100%, it means that the missing percentage is porno films and the person doesn't want to admit it. Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: Brother Ragnarok on May 19, 2003, 03:42:00 PM I'd say 80 - 90% horror/SF (hey, that encompases a lot of stuff)
10% music and/or comedy Brother R Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: StatCat on May 19, 2003, 04:57:40 PM I'd say I have about 90% horror/ sci-fi and maybe 10% music related videos.
Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: The Burgomaster on May 19, 2003, 05:04:31 PM I guess I should have added a separate category for movies like TEENAGE GANG DEBS, THE VIOLENT YEARS, GIRL GANG and other drive-in trash. I lumped them in with my "30% action" category, but they really deserve their own category.
I asked someone here at work to set up a really great-looking database for my movies. She's really good at inventing databases and she said she would try to do it when she is on maternity leave. Then I can sort them by different categories and get the real percentages. (You must be saying, "Doesn't he have anything better to do with his miserable life?")

85% crap (or so others tell me) that few people have heard of (e.g. most stuff I write about and a lot of cult stuff.) 10% crap (or so others tell me) that is popular (e.g. Shrek, Twister, Galaxy Quest) 03% good stuff (or so I've been told) that I don't like (e.g. Best in Show, A Beautiful Mind, Usual Suspects) 02% good stuff (or so I've been told) that I actually do like (e.g. Spirited Away, Citizen Kane, Amelie) regards, Apostic Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection?

Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: Dolph Lundgren on May 19, 2003, 11:52:20 PM I'm sure I'd get a lot of flak for my collection, but hey, it is what it is. Here goes:
90% Action 5% Horror 3% Drama, or stuff like Goodfellas, Glengarry Glenn Ross, Donnie Brasco, Memento, etc. 2% Comedy Action definitely dominates my collection. Sometimes (well, most of the time) you just need a good explosion or gunfight in a movie. Nick Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: Neville on May 20, 2003, 05:49:10 AM DVD: 80% war flicks, 10% Horror, 10% Japanese animation.
VHS: 60% Thrillers, 20% Action, 15% Horror & Sci-fi 5% Hong-Kong softcore. Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: Will on May 20, 2003, 08:55:44 PM Since I'm laid up with a broken leg today, I'm bored enough to answer this.
245 vhs + 829 dvd = 829 films Action = 34 = 4% Animation (from anime to dizknee) = 25 = 3% Comedy = 210 = 25% Documentary = 25 = 3% Drama = 89 = 11 % Horror = 260 = 31% Kung fu = 30 = 4% Music = 9 = 1% Musical = 10 = 1% Suspense = 43 = 5% Scifi/Fantasy = 91 = 11% Western = 19 = 2% I'm a geek.

"245 vhs + 829 dvd = 829 films" Will, I am a CPA and I DEMAND to see your accounting records! I suspect there could be some federal prison time in store for you, because 245 + 829 = 1,074. Did you work for Enron or Andersen?????? Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: Will on May 21, 2003, 11:09:36 AM Wow, I am a fool! How many typos can I get into one post. How hopped up on medication can I be? Who knows?
Well, the 101% is just a result of rounding, so that explains that. The actual movie tally should read: 600 vhs + 245 dvd = 845 films. Title: Re: What is the breakdown of your movie collection? Post by: Damien01 on May 21, 2003, 11:28:11 AM 35% horror/suspense
35% action 15% drama 10%sci-fi 5% comedy |
