Does Anyone Remember the First Film You Saw on DVD? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Mine was the film Suicide Kings (1997) during the summer of 2001.

I watched it over at a friend's house, he "stole" one of his father's DVDs to watch one night.

The first DVD that I ever owned was the Special Edition of Goldeneye (1995). I got it as a b-day gift.

I'm pretty sure it was South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut in late 1999. I bought a DVD player and a new TV with an entire paycheck(!), but the week before, I bought South Park: BLU, American Pie and Mallrats from Amazon in anticipation of owning a DVD player. Of those three titles, South Park is the only one I still own. Hard to believe that was over eleven years ago.

The first one I bought was The Wizard of Oz. I'd imagine that was the first one I watched, too. Back then I didn't have a DVD player, so I had to watch it on the computer.

The Simpsons, season one was the first TV-DVD I bought and it had the same computer viewing treatment.

The first DVD I can remember getting was "Dude, where's my Car?"

Actually..."Dude, where's my Car?" is the first DVD I got!

The fist DVD I bought and watched was The Big Chill.

My first TV-on-DVD was the "Clerks" cartoon.

I got it to complete my Jay and Silent Bob collection.
