1. THE ANAL-RETENTIVE COLLECTOR.
Buys all Special Editions and boxed sets just because, uh, they´re special and come in nice boxes. Completist to the extreme, has all the Criterion DVDs just because they´re numbered, and a gap in the numeration is something he just can´t stand. Prefer movies with anamorphic enhancement and DTS track just to show off his top-of-the-line HT. Watches 1.33:1 movies like CITIZEN KANE in strech mode, but is bummed all the same because the sound is mono. Rarely watches a DVD more than once, if at all.
2. THE MOVIE BUFF.
Not a completist per se, but has a multi-system, region-free set and searches all over the world for THE best editions of their favourite movies. Prefer OAR and uncut editions, but doesn´t give much of a bean about DTS cause, back in the day of the theaters, before the video boom, the sound wasn´t THAT good anyway. Actually watches his DVDs lots of times.
3. THE CASUAL BUYER.
Has only a bunch of DVD he REALLY likes, and watches them a lot with the family and friends. Goes out, has a social life and even a guh-guh-guh-GIRLFRIEND!!!
