Hi. My name is KP and I am a spendaholic.

80% of the movies I buy I have already seen at one time or the other. They all go into my library and my Qnap 1:1.
40tb's worth right now and I just expanded from 25tb to 60tb in January.

@Kingpin See I have a Synology and I love it for some things, but I had to keep upgrading the hard drives as I would fill them up. It's really a more cost effective solution for me to just back up my rare/OOP stuff and redeem the digitals as backups for everything else. The streaming comes nowhere near the quality of physical media, of course, but if I just want to throw something on late at night it's the path of least resistance.

I hear ya. My situation is a bit different. I'm out in the country so my internet while steady is nowhere near fast enough to download large files.
Plus I backup at 1:1 so each BR is 20-40gb's on it's own and that's without any extras.
I stream to 6 Smart TV's in my house and I'm the only one who lives here. But if it's serious watching with the theater system then I throw the disk in the OPPO and go to town so I don't have to worry about stupid streaming problems that arise with PLEX.

When I get bored I like to go to the different language subforums here and have google translate the page.
Reading them translated makes me think of the feelings one would have when doing LSD.

Somehow I have still not seen this movie, any good?

I have no idea. I haven't got to it yet. It's supposed to be artsy type of movie in the way it was filmed.

It's a very strange movie. I can't say I especially enjoyed it, but I found it compelling.

Two-Four Weekend up here.
Memorial Day weekend otherwise known as 2-4(24 case of beer) weekend. 3-4 Days off depending on who you are.
Anybody else have some grilling/smoking going on?

The dessert was for my daughter and you need a spoon to eat it.? @45Caliber
@Kingpin You are right, it's pork rolled and tied with a line. I like the Rollbraten most without stuffing. Just rub on it and in the cup under the the Rollbraten is beer. About 3 hours it's done.?

We've been invaded by German's!
Welcome one and welcome all!
All as I see on my "Activity page" is "Dies and Das" and multiple German subreddit topics.
Any way I can mute or block all these so I can see the pertinent information?

In truth, there is no easy way. It would be nice if you could filter out locales or specific forums, but you can't. You can create a stream to only show content you follow, but to only exclude the foreign language room, you would need to manually follow everything else. I know what your saying though. I had to scroll through pages of German before finding anything I understood in the feed.

Yeah I tried the custom stream route but that;s not feasible as you say.
I wonder the person who built the site, did they work for NASA before? LOL
I need to find some more Canadian's but with the new tariffs it's going to be hard.
Fill the feed up with...aboot...eh...hoser...colour/humour/flavour/humour and more words with a "u" in them.
Maybe find some Beaver.

Hi Guys,
Look forward to the great German response. But I can understand your request. I also get a lot of news from all sorts of posts.
And if you can not find a beaver, Kingpin, some people even talk to trees!The German Attack goes on.

Really? I watched it and thought it was on-par with Iron Fist, as in not great. Probably a 7/10. It did have a lot of nostalgia and doubt they could have made it much better than what they did considering the material. Hoping the 2nd season is better and makes a less predictable story

I found it the other day and ended up watching all 10 episodes that night. I enjoyed it and can't wait for Season 2.

Beer League with Artie Langue and Ralph Macchio

THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER!!!

I've been asked a few times how many movies I buy.
The truth comes down to how many Premiums I am paying for in that month. This month for instance I paid/bought roughly 12 One Clicks so far and yesterday I preordered and paid for another 7 straight from manufacturer. Some of those are Ebay purchases so my blu-ray budget is a little low this month.
So far this month this is what I've bought not including Premiums.
This doesn't include any special steelbook or blu-rays in the Statue or Figurine boxes that I just started spending more money on.
By the end of the month I'll have roughly triple this. Some months it's well over 200.
Most of the movies I buy I have already seen or are part of an artist collection I am accruing. If you think "wow he buys a lot of crap" you are probably right. But if it's funny, corny, cheesy and I enjoy it it's mine.
TV Shows are mostly comedy but I also love my Soprano's and Breaking Bad sets.
I am just over 1300 actual hard copy movies now. Not including any doubles in both DVD/Blu-ray/Premium formats.
1100+ Blu-Ray's
200+ DVD's
0 downloads except for a couple seasons of According to Jim because they were never produced.
P.S. If you don't like cheesy Christmas movies you have no soul.

? I only hope you also have time to watch all that stuff, I know I don't, but I buy not that much ?

I've seen everything but about 200-300 of them. A lot that I haven't seen yet are the Charlie Chaplin Short Stories and movies, The Herschell Gordon Feast set, Lord of The Rings series, Harry Potter Series, Lord of the Rings.
That's about 100 right there.
I won't watch movies for a week and then one weekend I sit around and watch a dozen of them.

Tom Holland as Spider-Man sucks donkey balls!
I hope Spider-Man gets killed off or there is a contract dispute and they find somebody else.
Seth Rogan would be 10x better and that isn't saying much.

Haha. "Our shipping department will be interested in knowing about this." I always get this crap. Ummm, the 50 times you told me you would advise the shipping department hasn't helped any. Congrats on the win though. I used to be able to get issues resolved, but now I just go around in endless circles with them, getting nowhere. Too bad their CS doesn't have a social media presence like Zavvi. Tweeting CS issues to Zavvi works wonders.

Reason I posted this is cause it's the first time I've had the "20%" thing thrown at me. I know you've mentioned it so I thought it was interesting.
Can you imagine Amazon having a twitter. LOL If you go on FB and check out Purolator or Canada Post even though they don't allow you to post messages every time they post they get bombarded with people having problems. Amazon would shut down the internet.
