Collection Count
Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.
Every time I think things might get quiet, a sale or something comes along. Nine new additions is no record breaker, but it remains a pretty big number for a single week — and, thanks to multi-film sets, there are 17 new additions to my film watchlist. Oy... Only two of these are brand-new releases; two more were released within the last month, caught up on in a 2-for-£25 offer, while the other five were in a flash sale.
Maybe I'll manage to display some self control next week, eh...
Number of titles in collection: 2,564 [up 9]
Of which DVDs: 1,075 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 1,489 [up 9]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 97 [no change]
Number of discs in collection: 6,540 [up 12]
Number of films: 2,978 [up 13]
Number of additional cuts: 215 [up 4]
Number of TV episodes: 9,052 [no change]
Number of short films: 848 [up 5]
See you next week, faithful reader.

2x06 The Top Hat Job
Miranda’s Games with Showbiz Names!
I don’t normally log things I’ve only partially watched; but then, I don’t normally only partially watch something. But we only got about five minutes into this Christmas special before concluding it was utter tosh and turned it off, never to be watched again.

Doctor Who: The Monthly Adventures
275x01 The End of the Beginning Part 1: Death and the Desert
The last-ever entry in Big Finish's monthly series of Doctor Who audios, which have been running since July 1999. It's the end of an era, and all that (it's not The End of Big Finish doing Who, they're just mixing up how they manage their releases). It's been years since I listened to a Big Finish release (though I still buy quite a few — oopsie), but as I was there listening at the start back in summer 1999, it felt only right to mark the end too. (Seems a shame they didn't end on a round number like 300, but then that would've required keeping this format they want to retire going for another two years, so fair enough I guess.)

The Purge: Anarchy (2014)
The first film was a contained horror/thriller about one well-to-do family whose home comes under assault from a gang of Purge participants on the night in question. This first sequel ditches most of the Horror genre trappings to instead emulate ’70s B-actioners, in the vein of stuff like Assault on Precinct 13 or The Warriors, and it’s all the better for it.Read more here.
