Ok, so I'm yoinking this idea from the Literary Acquisition Thread in the reading room...
What movies have we all been buying (or acquiring through "other means") lately?

I'll start... in the past two days I've gone movie crazy!
I bought
-Spirited Away on DVD
-Ginger Snaps on DVD
-The Hairy Bird on DVD
-Thunderpants on DVD (shut up!... it's for my little sister)
-Daria the movie - is it college yet? through "other means"

Also, I must say how awesome the Go-Lo $10 DVD sale is, I want to go back and buy Wonderboys and The Big One and Happiness.

So what movies have you all been acquiring lately?

I always borrow DVDs from the library for free.
Yep-I'm a tightarse. (But I don't have a job and have many UNI expenses to cover, so at least I am a tightarse with an excuse.)
