This was one of my busiest ever when it comes to my stupid movie collection. I'm not sure what got into me. Maybe it's because I actually did my homework to an insane level and truly knew EXACTLY what I had and what I didn't have and how that related to all the stupid movie sets I didn't have.
And with this update, I have to announce that I have 4 more movie sets for my Stupid Movie Collection. (For the record, I added a total of 26 movie sets this year. Waaaaayyyyy to many.) I took a tiny little break from the movies until some time in September when I got an eBay notification (I hadn't turned them off yet) which had a nice and low buy it now price. With that, I got Hollywood Comedy Legends. This 50 pack had 18 movies that I didn't have yet. Not quite stellar but at the price it was hard to pass up.
My birthday came up and the Mrs. got me a set that I had been longing for (and that I had added to my Amazon list): B-Movie Blast. It had a little overlap with the Excellent Eighties collection, but still had a decent amount of stuff I didn't have. Based on my notes, it appears that 29 were unique to my collection. Not bad!
Somewhere shortly thereafter, I got a notification on a set that I knew still had a decent amount of movies on it came up and of course, like a turd, I bought it. Thanks a lot eBay. This set is called Tales of Terror. It had 18 movies that I didn't have. I have to admit that the cover creeps me out a little.
And finally, for our anniversary, the Mrs got the other pack that was on my Amazon list, Historic Classics. This one had a fair number of movies that I needed (35 to be exact), though the theme for this one really isn't something I would normally gravitate to. Regardless, I have it now and can check it off the list. I can say that my eBay notification for 50 movie packs have been turned off.
I wish everyone the best in the New Year! Take care!!!
