I opened my copy of The Girl With The Dragon tattoo the other day and was shocked to see it was a burnt copy. It took me too long to think maybe it's supposed to look like that.

AKA Four Nights of a Dreamer
Probably the most expensive single Blu-ray I've ever bought.

Just curious: do you buy movies that you've seen before and are your favorites, or buy sight unseen? For whatever reason, I'd say 90% of the movies I buy I've never seen before, and based on reviews and word-of-mouth, have a feeling I'd like them.

That number sounds about right in my case.

Because I have no self control, I went to Barnes and Noble again. Picked up:

A Brighter Summer Day
Close-Up
The Magician
The Player
Picnic at Hanging Rock

I'd say I'm the opposite. At least 90% of what I buy is because I've seen it and liked it.
