Disney seem to be cancelling every animated film they have on the go. Why?

Collection Count

Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.

After last week's tiny update, this one is rather more packed, including a load that arrived on Friday (hence the 24 hour delay. Again.) Most exciting this week are a few releases that aren't even out yet: Blu-rays of Up (out on Monday in a variety of editions), M (out February 22nd on Blu-ray and DVD), and City Girl (out February 22nd on Blu-ray only -- a first?) Always love getting things pre-release.

Number of titles in collection: 1,146 [up 10]
Of which DVDs: 1,077 [up 3]
Of which Blu-rays: 69 [up 7]

Number of discs in collection: 2,799 [up 15]
Number of films in collection: 1,212 [up 10]
Number of TV episodes in collection: 3,882 [up 6]

Statistic of the week:

Total running time of collection (approx.):
194 days, 4 hours, and 43 minutes.
(Up 3 days, 8 hours, and 55 minutes from last month.)

See you next week, faithful reader.
