Collection Count
Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.
This week looked set to boast just one new addition — a new release, and even then one I hadn't necessarily intended to buy (the new West Side Story, which is already on Disney+), but I was tempted by pretty limited edition packaging. But then, to compound it, I went and bought a bunch of stuff on offer and/or that was headed out of print. Story of my life. And so, while not a record-breaking week by any means, it's a not-insignificant one.
Number of titles in collection: 2,795 [up 7]
Of which DVDs: 1,055 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 1,740 [up 7]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 156 [up 2]
Number of discs in collection: 6,996 [up 16]
Number of films: 3,329 [up 9]
Number of additional cuts: 253 [up 1]
Number of TV episodes: 9,266 [up 29]
Number of short films: 955 [up 6]
See you next week, faithful reader.

Dexter: New Blood
1x01 Cold Snap
Is this Dexter season 9, or a new sequel/spin-off series? Given how other series have treated legacy specials/revivals, there's no set way of numbering these things. But given it's the only season of the show with a subtitle, and it was made years later and all that, I'm going with "new" numbering (as I think most people did in the end). Anyway, it's good to have Dexter Morgan back. I didn't hate the original ending, but, nonetheless, hope they give him a more fitting send-off this time.
Only Murders in the Building
1x01 True Crime
Heard good things about this — it seemed to build up some strong word-of-mouth when it was coming out and since — so thought I'd give it a go. On the evidence of episode one, it could be a lot of fun.

The Abandoned An’ Forsaked - How Did Alfred First Meet Batman?
by Brian Cronin (from CBR)
Something (I forget what) piqued my interest as to when Alfred was added to Batman canon. A bit of Googling quickly brought me to this article, which not only includes Alfred’s first appearance (in Batman #16 from 1943), but also details how his backstory has changed down the years — the one we’re most familiar with (that he’s worked for the Waynes since Bruce was a child and always known about Batman) wasn’t actually the case until the mid ‘80s.

this week on 100Films.co.uk
I don't know about you, but this has been a long week — so long that I forgot a new month started during it. Yep, that's right! So. no new X new films review at 100Films.co.uk this week, but there was the monthly review of February...
And, to go with it, the February failures...
More next Sunday.

13x01 Santo in the Treasure of Dracula
The new season of MST3K began with a Kickstarter-backers-exclusive premiere last night — 1am UK time, hence me logging it today. After a few technical issues delayed the start, the episode itself was a delight: a perfect movie to be laughed at while still being kinda daftly enjoyable, which, for me, is the MST3K sweetspot (truly awful movies sometimes feel like a slog that the riffers didn't have enough to work with). If they keep up this standard, it should be a good season.

Collection Count
Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.
Having delayed the monthly running time update from last week, I didn't buy (or sell) a single title this week, so it remains exactly as it would have last time. Isn't that... fundamentally immaterial to anything but this column. Anyway...
Number of titles in collection: 2,788 [no change]
Of which DVDs: 1,055 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 1,733 [no change]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 154 [no change]
Number of discs in collection: 6,980 [no change]
Number of films: 3,320 [no change]
Number of additional cuts: 252 [no change]
Number of TV episodes: 9,237 [no change]
Number of short films: 949 [no change]
As I said, no changes. Except...
Total running time of collection (approx.):
501 days, 10 hours, and 4 minutes.
(Up 2 days, 17 hours, and 18 minutes from last month.)
See you next week, faithful reader.
