Collection Count
Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.
So, after last week turned out to be considerably smaller than expected, it all came pouring in this week instead — just in time for the monthly running time update.
Indeed, there was even more than I'd expected, thanks to an early arrival for Eureka's Louis Feuillade box set (which should replace three DVDs, but they have extras I'm not yet ready to ditch) and Indicator throwing up a sale, from which I ordered two big box sets (and a couple of regular titles), which also managed to arrive before week's end.
Altogether, it makes for a bunch of very sizeable increases — including a frankly ludicrous 48 new feature films! I feel like that must be some kind of record, but I don't have the energy to check.
Number of titles in collection: 3,397 [up 10]
Of which DVDs: 995 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 2,402 [up 10]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 397 [no change]
Number of discs in collection: 8,211 [up 34]
Number of films: 4,265 [up 48]
Number of additional cuts: 414 [up 10]
Number of TV episodes: 9,837 [up 40]
Number of short films: 1,175 [up 4]
I always have a dilemma with film serials: are they one film; or a bunch of TV episodes; or a bunch of films? Because they're not really one film; but counting each episode as a film is a bit daft; but they're not really TV episodes either. I tend to end up counting them there, though, because it seems like the fairest option. That's what I've done with this new Feuillade set, anyway — no 'actual' TV was added to the collection this month.
No debate about where to count the running time, at least: it all goes into the same massive pile...
Total running time of collection (approx.):
577 days, 4 hours, and 40 minutes.
(Up 6 days, 8 hours, and 11 minutes from last month.)
See you next week, faithful reader.
