Since I have given my life over to Netflix, I find I don't need to keep every movie I have ever liked.

But I still buy Disney DVD's (for the kids!) and the occasional limited or oddball item I see with cool packaging. Like Repo Man in a license plate shape tin.

And I just have to chime in that Wings of Desire is one of the best movies ever.

I always swore that I would never be the type to collect DVDs but then I find there are some movies that I can (and want) to watch mindlessly over and over and over again.

Namely, Mystery Science Theater 3K. I gots 'em all.

And God forbid a friend asks to watch a Chaplin movie and I did not have one available (of course, no friend of mine would actually ask such a question but I must be prepared!)

Man, The Elephant Man is probably my all time favorite film. To each his and her own.

I'd be all over that!

And, I liked the Windom Earle episodes, too. Actually, aside from X-Files, the only Duchovny acting I can stomach was his stint on Twin Peaks during that time.

I haven't seen Twin Peaks since I was on Television. It was a weekly event on our house and we taped every episode. However, I never watched the taped again and recently threw them all away.

I think that was also one of the last regular shows we watched on TV.

Make that damn fine coffee and let's not forget a complete array of donuts.

Might I add the Disney Treasures DVDs that I am presently missing?

Didn't mean to trash The Elephant Man - it's a fine movie. I just not-so-randomly picked the first three Lynch films to compare to Twin Peaks. Eraserhead, while his breakthrough debut, looks like a film that was made in bits and pieces (which it was), and then his next two films, The Elephant Man and Dune, were basically movies for hire. I think that the next period of his work - Blue Velvet and Wild At Heart - are transcendent, specifically because he was able to find a balance between box office aspirations and "Lynchian" filmmaking. While I enjoy Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive, I do so as a Lynch fan, who understands the vocabulary of his work. I think that Twin Peaks and On The Air are closer in style and objective to Blue Velvet and Wild At Heart, though crafted for broadcast TV rather than the big screen. And that's why they get the most repeat viewing in my DVD player. While I will always defend FWWM, I do so in the context of it being a big-screen Twin Peaks movie. I'm not sure that it would stand on its own as a work of art - too much of the symbolism depends on one's familiarity with Twin Peaks.
