What was your very first DVD? (1 Viewer)

[MarkHarrison]

My first disc was Men in Black. My wife didn't really get the whole DVD thing. So I wanted something that would show off the format that my wife would be interested in. Then I went and got myself Fight Club.

 

[Jim Williams]

My first was Hearts In Atlantis. What a disappointment that was! I loved the book, hated the movie. I made up for it by buying Blade Runner next. Even though it is non-anamorphic and only 2 channel, it is a great movie.

My first was the original release of the T2: Ultimate Edition, it's spiraled downhill ever since.

 

[Vlad D]

Same here. My first DVD was The Matrix and I didn't own a DVD player when I bought it, although I got one a few weeks later as a birthday present.

My first DVD was DRUIDS (a birthday present) in 2002.

The original release of Halloween by Anchor Bay. Got it and my RCA 5200 dvd player in Nov '97, if I remember right.

 

[Tom Scholfield]

I bought The Fifth Element, Blade Runner, Blade, and Eraser, my first four dvds ever, and I still have them all.

 

[Paul Chi]

My first DVD was Face/off which I got for my birthday way back in October of 1998.

The Road Warrior, the greatest movie of all time

 

[Jim Reynolds]

The first movie I brought home was Six Days Seven Nights.I was standing there holding a $500 DVD player and thought it would be a good idea to bring home a movie my wife enjoyed.That 1 movie has now grown to 950 not counting box sets.

I bought 2 DVD's at once the first time.

It was from HMV Hong Kong in 1997. I got my DVD multi-regioned to play all regions so obviously I got R3 DVD's. I bought, Eraser and The Replacement Killers. Still have them and are still great DVD's even after all these years!

 

[WilliamG]

My first DVD: Superman: The Movie!
And I still love it

 

[Travis Hedger]

I did not have a first DVD. I bought 3 the first day, though.

Austin Powers
Dumb and Dumber
and
Terminator 2.

I now have over 300 titles in my collection.

 

[Scott Burke]

The first DVD purchases were:
An American Werewolf in London
Twister
Spawn
Interview with the Vampire

also my sister had bought Contact for me, and it still works!

 

[david_shy]

mine was R4 Starship Troopers

Dual Sided DVD with no extras whatsoever (well, they counted "interactive menus" as an extra...)

still got it, but boy that flipping the disc business is so annoying

 

[Galen_V]

Jerry Seinfeld, I'm Telling You For the Last Time around December of 1999 (I think). The only reason why I bought it was because my computer came with a DVD-ROM drive, and I wanted to put it to use. And then things sort of get a little hazy from there...

Goldeneye in the summer of 97. I remember going to various electronics stores looking for discs and got many blank looks when I asked if they had any DVDs. I had to order it from Onecall since my city wasnt in one of the test markets. Things sure have changed since then.

 

[norman j]

Shawshank Redemption-I bought it at the same time I bought the DVD Player.

 

[Tom Rags]

Independence Day for $20 at Best Buy the day it was released. A few months later, I got my first DVD player (a playstation 2) during the first few weeks that it was out

 

[Tim Smy]

My first was L.A. CONFIDENTIAL in March 1998, 2 months before I bought my first DVD player.
