How many B&W movies on DVD do you own?

[stryker]

How many black & white movies are in your DVD collection? I have a little over 300 movies and I'm 99.98% sure that CLERKS is the only non-color DVD movie I possess.

[MackemX]

I have 2, Some Like It Hot and It's A Wonderful Life

Hi,

Maybe four or five. Old tv shows on dvd that is

Kevin


(actually quite a few more than that - My MST3K collection has a ton of bw movies)

[stryker]

I love MST3K. But only with the orignal host. The replacement guy was terrible. That show needs to come back on the air. There's just too many bad movies that need to be made fun of.

[yoda313]

Hi,

You didn't like Mike???? Come on he was on the writing staff originally with Joel and promoted when joel bailed. He's not quite as goofy as Joel but he's still fun.

But I do agree they should make a comeback. We need the comic relief!

[tgpo]

Clerks, Pi, A Buster Keaton Collection, and a Charlie Chaplin Collection

[smearbrick1]

Clerks, Young Frankenstein, about 50 old horror movies (The Last Man On Earth, Night Of The Living Dead...etc).

[Cole]

Seven in total:

Six Doctor Who DVDs from the 1963 to 1969 era.
Laurel and Hardy's March of the Wooden Soldiers.

Will be getting:

BBC's Quatermass box set.

I shouldn't say Mike was terrible, because he wasn't. For me Joel was just funnier and as you say, goofier. Once Mike took over, it just wasn't the same. I couldn't watch it anymore. Generally I don't like it when a host gets replaced. If Mike had hosted from the beginning, I might have enjoyed watching the show with him, who knows? This is just my opinion of course.

[shelbyGT]

Schindler's List and Clerks are the only 2 I have.

[Rookie64]

I haven't counted, but I'll say between 50 and 100

Though it would be more if you count tinted and stuff that is in color and B&W


I have a lot of artsy films, indies, music videos and silent films.

[AlecWest]

Currently, over 50. Right now in front of me, I have this 50-movie "Classic Mystery" collection (the price is right):

[Conquest10]

Schindler's List
Onibaba
Seven Samurai
(soon... Sin City)

I thought I had more than that.

[waheed]

Only the Laurel and Hardy collection.

I hate black and white.

[ChrisX]

I got several DVDs as in B/W

Movies such as Schindler's List, Some Like It Hot, the original Mr. & Mrs. Smith and the Charlie Chaplin Collection are examples I own.

Lolita is another one in B/W and there are plenty of others like that having no color.

I reckon I got something like a dozen of them.

[MrMoody]

Probably about 12 including A Hard Day's Night, Clerks, Young Frankenstein, Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein and The Bank Dick plus a couple other classics.

[offline]

About half of all mine (DVD & otherwise) are B&W.

[Byronleehk]

I have 3 and all war movies. "Is Paris burning?", "A walk in the sun" and one other that I can't remember

[lordsmurf]

At least 100. Love the silents and early talkies.
These are often $1-5 each too, super cheap.

[rhegedus]

Night of The Hunter
Cape Fear
3:10 to Yuma
The Fastest Gun Alive
The Longest Day
Rio Grande
Fanfan La Tulipe

and many more.........

[MeDiCo_BrUjO]

Clerks, Pi, Schindler's list, The Mummy (OLD OLD Boris Karloff mummy).

[stryker]

-EDIT-

[jackal70058]

I have a few old TV series and comedy on DVD and in black and white.

With color TV now, you don't see many black-and-white programs anymore.

[JohnnyCNote]

I'm rebuilding my gangster movie collection on DVD, so that includes a lot of BW titles. Between TCM, Fox Movie Channel and new releases on DVD, my collection is becoming quite respectable....

[guns1inger]

Citizen Kane
Maltese Falcon
Touch of Evil
Psycho
The Universal Monster Collection
Yojimbo
Godzilla (both original Japanses and US releases)
The Day the Earth Stood Still

and on and on

too many great films to ignore

[drjtech]

I have hundreds of '20s-'60s B&W movies on DVD, including quite a few I made myself from Turner Classic Movies captures.

I also have quite a few "modern" movies in B&W, including:
The Man Who Wasn't There
Schindler's List
Young Frankenstein
Raging Bull
Go Fish
Pi
Manhattan
Stardust Memories
The Last Picture Show
Shadows and Fog
Coffee and Cigarettes
Ed Wood
The Elephant Man
Clerks
Rumble Fish

I grew up on B&W televison, so it seems normal to me. The first 5 or 6 times I saw The Wizard of Oz I didn't realize that most of it was in color -- it was all black and white on our TV.

[rallynavvie]

Every Kurosawa film available in the US, though 4 are in color so they don't count. I also have some other older Japanese films by the likes of Ozu and Inagaki. I've picked up some other old European films but haven't had a chance to watch them all yet. Those are all Criterion picks.

[HatchetMan]

At least one dozen silent films too, probably more - Chaplin, Keaton, Murnau, Kino films.

[lordsmurf]

If you like Chaplin, Keaton, etc. ... check out HAROLD LLOYD ... by far my favorite silent, aside from Laurel & Hardy.

I just added this one to my queue.
