well, since we no longer have the amazing laserdisc market in dfw to go and hunt down new treasures, i have finally gotten around to putting our LDDb.com wishlist to use...
the lddb (laserdisc database) is truly well on its way to being the definitive source for ld info and we have had our collection listed there for quite some time, but never really used the wishlist...
after collecting for over a year now, over 350 laserdiscs, we have 99% of what we want and some rather much-sought-after items (the thx demo disc, the toy story box set, both u.s. star wars box sets, etc.), but, there are still a few we have not yet acquired, such as the matrix, fight club, shock treatment, the jfk box set, the anamorphic unforgiven (yes, they made a few 16:9 anamorphic laserdiscs), star wars phantom menace (it is the theatrical cut in dolby digital ex), and the criterion theatrical cut of blade runner... mostly stuff not available on dvd, some just because...
i also threw in a few that we are not THAT hot over, but would be nice to get a trade offer for, such as some of the various japanese-release-only metallica discs out there...
the only things we have gotten offers for to this point have been our godfather box set and our silent running/colossus: the forbin project double feature set... and those were buy offers, we prefer trade... we will see if having our wishlist online changes things...

anyway, with no further ado, i give you...

Our LDDb LaserDisc Wishlist

(once there, you can click on "view all by title" for an easy overview...)
i may add this link to the sidebar, or maybe just to our shared homepage...



btw, yes, miss mary and i are working on what will be cross-linked posts about our recent trip, but, that is not ready yet...

UPDATE

GRRRRAAAAAARRRRRR!!!!

so far as i can tell, the wishlist feature is private and cannot be changed to public... for now, i will leave this post and look into it...
