Collection Count
Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.
Having just last week noted the slow increase of my UHD titles this year, this week I got two more and hit that century. It was a mix of all the possibilities I listed: something definitely coming later this month, that I was very likely to order, and caving to a multibuy.
Number of titles in collection: 2,587 [up 8]
Of which DVDs: 1,075 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 1,512 [up 8]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 100 [up 2]
Number of discs in collection: 6,569 [up 12]
Number of films: 3,002 [up 7]
Number of additional cuts: 217 [up 2]
Number of TV episodes: 9,080 [up 26]
Number of short films: 854 [up 4]
See you next week, faithful reader.

Warning from Space (1956)
[#87 in 100 Films in a Year 2021]
+ the audio commentary by Stuart Galbraith IV (it’s billed as a “select scene” commentary, but what that means here is that Galbraith just doesn’t have enough material to cover the full feature, tapping out before the 65 minute mark). Also the two trailers, which (aside from the alternate US version of the film and a booklet) are all the extras the disc has to offer.

Collection Count
Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.
This week's additions include only my fifth UHD title this year. That might not sound like a particularly tiny number — it's more than one per month average, and certainly more than I've bought DVDs — but, considering my overal Blu-ray count has gone up by 75 in that same time, it's fewer than you might've expected. Nonetheless, I'm sure it'll hit the magic 100 soon. I've already got one definitely coming later this month, and a couple more I'm very likely to order; plus there's always the chance I'll cave to some multibuy offer or other. (I dread to think how quickly I've got to 100 UHDs compared to how long it took me to amass 100 DVDs back in the day...)
Also this week: a haul from the recent UK Criterion sale, which pushes my Blu-ray collection past the 1,500-title mark, and gets my film count ever so close to 3,000...
Number of titles in collection: 2,579 [up 9]
Of which DVDs: 1,075 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 1,504 [up 9]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 98 [up 1]
Number of discs in collection: 6,557 [up 11]
Number of films: 2,995 [up 10]
Number of additional cuts: 215 [down 1]
Number of TV episodes: 9,054 [up 2]
Number of short films: 850 [up 2]
